Very surly and unpleasant order taker. Not a smile. Lots of glares. Not sure why Saving grace? Great food. Very clean restaurant. Free tortilla chips and salsas.

I’ve gone to almost all of these locations because I drive for a living, and this one by far is the worst food when you order asada you get ground beef, because that’s what it is and the burrito I got was more oil and grease. I threw away half of the burrito. At least they could do is take some pride in their food. I’m sure that they would not even eat that type of food. Drain the oil out next time. But other than that, the place is clean. $19 for burrito and a soda is outrageous for what you get. Go to the sum of the other locations and they are a lot better.

$18 for a rice burrito. And the rice wasn’t very good. What a terrible disappointment. I knew I should have gone with my other lunch option. I guess I won’t going there again, for a good long time.

This guys here are a joke . You ask for tongue tacos the mixing beef and tongue. So you not getting what you pay for. My husband ask for a carne assada burrito and they gave him hamburger meat. Literally big pieces of it. I will never buy anything from any of these places.

Love this place so much! They make everything to order so it is always fresh. They have no problem customizing things either which is great. Salsa bar is free with orders and has options from super mild to crazy hot. This time I ordered a taco salad with shredded chicken and my only complaint would be it was so big I could not finish it! Prices are reasonable fir the food and the quality/portions.

Their carne asada fries is the best with good flavor and spicy with the hot flavors to top it. The cheese was melting as I was eating it

Worst I have had. And I’m not picky!! How do refried beans become pale mauve? Lard? The enchiladas were runny and rice dry. For $14.50! So bummed since it’s close to my house.
