Reviews
The authentic taste of care delivered with pride. The carnitas were delicious, very lean and not overly salted. The refried beans were creamy and just like they should be. Generous portions of crema and avocado sauce. I ate enthusiastically and was very happy with my meal.
Got home and ate half of the burrito (at first only getting rice), so I continued until an inch before I had finished and realized there never any meat added. It was just “rice, beans, and cheese.”
Lesson learned; I either have to speak fluent Spanish or go with someone who does.
Definitely coming back — 200% yes!
However we ordered to super burrito to go and when we got home we noticed there was no guacamole or sour cream so we called to let them know. I was hoping to go back and get another but the woman who answered argued that we just don’t see the guac or sour cream or that we ordered the regular burrito. She was pretty rattled up and the fact that she argued about it instead of trying to make it right was a turn off so I just counted it as a loss. Be careful when ordering burritos!
This is sad to say, because I’ve been going here for years, even after the food quality went down, but then came back up.
So today I received really poor food service! I normally order my burritos without rice and beans because, I just like to have, in my opinion, an unadulterated burrito. That’s not just full of fluff. I ordered a super burrito that was 80% rice!
Just take a look at the picture, it’s only 2 inches in diameter and nothing but rice with a sliver of meat! The picture was taken after 3 or 4 bites of just rice, then after 4 more big bites, it was the same! Again sadly, this was my last visit. As I returned and requested my money back. $15 for what is basically a tortilla full of rice!
Obviously, there is nothing SUPER about it! Other than being SUPER disappointing!
Google doesn’t allow you to do an ‘update’ to your review.
That being said, I find it very interesting that when a negative review is posted, that MANY positive reviews are quick to follow.
Don’t be fooled!! This place will leave you extremely lacking a good Mexican food experience, unless you are Mexican….
