“ The food was tasty, cooked with fresh ingredients, and well prepared. Portions are surprisingly enormous. We loved every one of our meals. They missed our fries and gave us rice instead. However, we went back and they replaced our fries without hesitation. Their customer service was excellent and deserves recognition. X ”
“ I was in the area for work for the week and dined in here three times. The food was very affordable with tacos (pretty large) around 3.49 - 4.99 and burritos 9.99 - 11.99. My Mexican boyfriend and I ordered fish tacos (pictured), burrito de cabeza, and tacos de carnitas (pictured) and al pastor. We both loved all the food, which always arrived super hot (in temperature). The salsas were flavorful, with the yellow one not being spicy and the spicy red one having a smoky chipotle flavor. Everything we tried had an authentic flavor and my boyfriend approved. The customers at the table next to us ordered caldo de camaron (shrimp soup) which looked amazing. The service was quick and friendly. You pick up your order at the counter (no table service). The atmosphere was very laid back and the space was very clean. The staff cleaned the tables with disinfectant after people left and kept the tray return empty. They also replaced the drink lids while handling them with napkins so as not to touch them directly which I greatly appreciated. They were also playing a Banda Los Recoditos album so you know this place is authentic. If I'm ever in the area again, I would definitely come back here. ”
