Go-to spot for consistent burritos!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It's my go-to spot for burritos, and the food is consistently good every time. I appreciate that the food is ready in 12-15 minutes when I call ahead or order. The people are friendly and the food is good. I definitely recommend this place!

Delicious Taco Tuesday!
My experience on Tuesday was fantastic! I tried one of each meat choice for taco Tuesday, and everything was great. The street-sized tacos were generously filled with meat, guacamole, and onions. I would definitely come back.

Great Food, Inconsistent Hours
I've visited this restaurant a couple of times while traveling from out of town, and the food was very good on both occasions. It was good enough that I've made it a point to return whenever I'm in town. However, they do not seem particularly interested in opening according to their posted hours. Last time I was in town, I waited outside on a Saturday morning at 9: 30 AM for them to open and finally gave up around 9: 45-9: 50 AM. It is now 10: 45 AM on a Sunday morning. The sign reads that they open at 10: 30 AM, but the door is locked and nobody is inside. There is a handwritten note stating they closed early last night (11/8) but will be open for regular hours today (11/9). Regular hours are listed as 10: 30 AM on Google and on the window. It’s 10: 47 AM now, so I will find somewhere else to go. If you don’t plan on being open, at least change your posted hours so you’re not wasting people’s time.

Authentic Chilaquiles and Carnitas!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The mother making authentic Green Chilaquiles was a highlight, and the Carnitas were delicious. It's a must stop and eat, and I'd definitely go back.

Raspado Lacking Tamarind Flavor
I would like you to please add more tamarind honey to my raspado. This time it wasn't good, thank you.

Refused Service and Lied About It
My experience at this restaurant was extremely negative. They refused service and kicked me out. They then proceeded to lie about this experience on Google. When I called to confront them about their lies, they became attitude-filled. I sincerely hope this place closes down.

Frustrating Inconsistent Hours
My experience was frustrating due to the restaurant's inconsistent hours. I arrived to find the restaurant closed, only to discover a notice on the door. It's inconvenient for customers who don't live nearby and waste gas. The posted hours on the store window, Google, and other signs are contradictory. Today, I tried to place a to-go order for three people at 5 PM, but the phone was repeatedly hung up, despite the door sign indicating a 6 PM closing time and Google showing 8 PM. This lack of consistency is a basic responsibility to customers and essential for business. I am open to changing my review to a more positive one if this scheduling issue is addressed.

Mixed Experience with Carne Asada
My experience at this restaurant was a bit mixed. I was drawn to try it after reading other reviews and visiting the nearby carnaval grocery store. I ordered the carne Asada burrito, which was an interesting experience. When I cut it in half, the bottom fell out, and the inside had a soupy sauce, almost like a casserole. While it was tasty, it was very different from what I expected. My wife's carne asada quesadilla was described as very dry, essentially just meat between tortillas with cheese. The service was rated a 4, and the atmosphere a 3, with a quiet noise level. The food itself received a score of 3.

Go-to Spot for Fresh Food & Friendly Service
My GO-TO spot when I'm in the neighborhood! I experienced fresh food, always friendly staff, and reasonable prices. They offer everyday specials on the menu and delicious aquas frescas to enjoy with your meal. The fish tacos are a number one hit! Highly recommended!
