We decided to give this place another shot after a bad experience. We always try to help local businesses. This place hasn’t gotten better though. It’s still dirty, the young kid in front has zero manners, food is old. Don’t waste your money or time. Food:...Read More

Food was exceptional, service; young man not as hospitable as one would like. Felt almost annoyed that we had gone in. But all around, good experience. Not sure if an older gentleman was the owner or a customer but did thank us as we left. Food:...Read More

Some staff are too nervous. Grease from food is not separated. No signage available to help with selections. Beans are too skimpy in the burritos. Has room for upgrades and improvement. Famous place! Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2

Sorry, it just that the eagerness to serve wasn't there. The tortillas were great and the chicharones were good. The proprietor just needs to focus on establishing an inviting offer, because this was a visit by word of mouth recommendation. I do not feel...Read More

This place went down hill fast. Chicharrones are always burnt. Food doesn't taste good. They serve you with same spoons from pork and beef items cross contaminating food items. Bottom line valen madre
