OVERVIEW - 4.5 Came here after our team at work decided this was the place to get Mexican Food, more particularly tacos.

LOCATION - 5 They're found along the busy State Street and depending what direction you're coming from depends on how easy it is to get in to the restaurant.

PRICE - 5 I found the price reasonable for the quantity of food you receive.

PRODUCTS/SERVICES - 4 I ordered the Al Pastor Burrito, and that is what I got (at least I think I did, as we came as a group and there was no differentiating between the three other burritos that were ordered, so it was a matter of guessing after unwrapping the burritos). I think that was my biggest complaint is as a group it was difficult to decide what was what. That being said, the burrito was delicious, and considering my tastebuds are incredibly weak when it comes to things spicy, I'm pleased to report there was nothing spicy in my burrito.

POINTERS/PERKS - N/A There probably are some, but I'm not sure what they'd be.

EMPLOYEES - 4 Standard quality of employees, just doing their job, didn't seem all that above and beyond. The guy calling out the order numbers would first call out the numbers in English then if no one claimed their order he'd call them...

I decided to order online for the purpose of picking up my order in 15 minutes which is what they stated while ordering. When I enter, the lady that was upfront didn’t acknowledge me and I had to get her attention to ask about my order. It wasn’t busy or any reason to not help me. It turns out, my order wasn’t ready. They began making it once I asked her about it. I had to wait another 15 minutes for it. once I got home the burritos weren’t marked as to which is which. Had to open each one of them to know which one it was, very frustrating. The lady had gone away and I was still missing my drinks to my order. When she did appear about 5 minutes later, I had to once again, tell her I’m still waiting on my drinks. She wasn’t so friendly and seemed annoyed with me asking her about my order. Also, one of the burritos I asked for a special request and it wasn’t fulfilled. I don’t understand the purpose of them having the option of special requests if they’re not going to pay attention to them. This will definitely be my last visit to this location. This wasn’t my first bad experience here which is why I’ve come down to a review and advise you to eat...
