Not as big in size as other locations in size but I gotta admit bigger in taste! Definitely worth the wait, Carson Ca has long waited and is very happy you're here 😀. Beyond Delicious 😋, awesome service, very friendly service I come multiple times. Awesome chef Roxana and chef Antonio as you don't always think healthy is tasty but wow they made me stuff that is better and tastier than EVERYWHERE ELSE. I appreciate your art! my saltado de pollo was awesome. I am on a very strict diet and you made it easier! The food was REALLY good!!!! Super star server Denise too did a great job! Great staff always make for a great reason to keep coming back to a chain since...

Ordered the Cilantro Soup to go. All I can say is that this location is nothing at all like the other locations - which have all been excellent. Should've known better when they said my order would be ready in 5 minutes ( every other location - any order always takes at least 15 - 20 minutes and well worth the wait). The soup was an off yellow color instead of the usual green, had almost no cilantro in it, and didn't taste very good. Also, this location doesn't automatically include rolls and sauce with your order like the other locations do. Very Disappointed. If you want to truly experience this restaurant I recommend the Gardena, Lawndale, or Hawaiian...
