We come here 2 to 3 times a week and after this last visit, it will be our last.Got yelled at through the intercom to place our order even though we were not pulled up all the way because there was no room with the car in front of us. I tried telling the guy and he just kept yelling back for us to give him the order because they close at 7pm and it was 6:50.I ordered extra red salsa, which was not given to me. Then I asked him again, and told him he could charge me for it, but he started yelling at me to look in the bag. Which I had already done. There were only two small red salsa containers and we had ordered multiple entrees. He just left and didn't want to sell us any extra.We will take our business elsewhere and stop recommending to neighbors and Friends. Not sure of the gentlemen name, but he also wouldn't give us a copy of our receipt. This happened the night of Sunday, May 22.

Awesome food that's cheap and quick. The guy that takes our order is always really nice as well. I have come here probably 10 times over the past 3 years and not one single time has anything been sub par.

Ordered the grilled chicken burrito, had this many times. Always very good. This time had plenty of chicken, but very little guacamole and pico de gallon . So unfortunately, all you tasted was the chicken. I don’t know if this is the trend now, hopefully not. Paid almost $8 for this burrito, you would think they would fill it will all of the ingredients. I know there are many other authentic fast food Mexican restaurants in the area, may have to try them out.

So affordable and so delicious. I was pleasantly delighted when I discovered this location so near to everything I wanted to be. Double drive-thru moves fairly fast. Now it's hard to justify not coming here everytime we leave the house. Probably going to make me fat.

Take my review with a grain of salt. As the nature of my rating choice has nothing to do with the taste of the food. Because I couldn't eat what I got. There was no clear indication on the menu as to what was included in the tacos. I searched for any potential web based menu about what might be on them, as I had seen a picture with the tacos having pico de gallo on them. I was okay with the pico de gallo, while not what I'm used to, pico de gallo is delicious and I wanted to try Monica's. I was not, however, expecting the tacos to have guacamole on them. While I'm sure the surprise guac is good for some, for me it made them inedible. Because I'm allergic to avocados. The coworker I gave the tacos to said they were really good and they certainly smelled good. Had I known they came with guacamole, I'd have asked for it without.The staff I interacted with was very nice and patient with me when I pulled a bit too far forward in the drive through. They were nice and the food smelled good but the menu needs to be updated.

Their bacon, egg, cheese, and potato breakfast burrito was absolutely trash. It lacked flavor and even color. Additionally, they barely added bacon and cheese. It was a greyscale experience. I figured with three cars ahead and a 20+ minute wait time they would be making all the food as it was ordered. Boy was I wrong. I can’t speak on behalf of their other options but this is my second time coming for the same item and the experience was the same both times. I’ll go elsewhere for this burrito. It would have been nice if it worked out because I’m three minutes away. Oh well.

Came here from out of town & It reminds me so much of my hometown. Quick service even when there busy and our food was tasty :).

Monica’s has the best breakfast burritos, beans & rice in town!! All the food I have ever gotten at Monica’s has been authentic and so tasty. You will not be disappointed.

Good tacos and green chili. Great prices and nice staff that listened well to my order amd got it right. :)

My God enchilada style. How hard is it of full of Mexicans to know what it is? I have to say smothered in red sauce? Really? We are not kids I'm saying a long syllable word that your culture made. Is cause I'm white and I need say it in Spanish or what? ITS NOT HARD. ENCHILADA SAUCE ON AN ITEM. It's all I ask.
