Boy has this place changed. 3 years ago I raved about it and gave it 5 stars. Its now at a new location on Madison. They can't decide if they are an appliance store, market, restaurant or clothing store and the food tastes like it. Last time we felt like it had gone downhill as the consistency and quality were different. We decided to give them another try today. My Carne asada quesadilla was more like roast beef and not good at all. Nothing like carne asada should be, like seasoned steak. My husband had a carnitas burrito. It was gross, like a huge chunk of flavorless pork, not seasoned. It had blobs of fat and gristle. We won't be back. Really a shame cause when these guys opened downtown on main it was really great. Too bad. Step it up guys. People around here will realize the poor quality of meat you are using. Market items WAY over priced. I should have went to Walmart. Don't waste your money. We're Mexican food lovers from CA so we know the difference from great food to this...

No one has ever been rude to me but no one is ever greeting you. Which again not bad just not how I was trained... so we decided to give the food a try. Excited we ordered 3 separate "meals" and one being the full meal with rice and beans. The others were just them main item (tacos/enchiladas) Welp... the food was microwaved. All of it separately. So I should have known better but I proceeded to look around while my husband waited, so truly didnt k ow that until after we left. It did take forever i will say that. The total came to $87 which it hurts to even bring it up. To add to that they didn't even gives us the sides that came with the actual meal. So if you want leftovers heated in the microwave and possibly incomplete order that is little pricey then yeah eat there.... but for what you pay it should be hot off the stove...
Read moreI stepped in, seeking shelter from the confusing mix of harsh sunlight and chilled breeze. I was caught slightly off-guard, as the front of the establishment is a grocery. I spotted tables in the far back, and began my journey. Past the butcher's case sat the order counter where I requested my steak burrito dinner (although it was lunch).
The food arrived quickly. I hardly had the chance for my ornithophobia to kick in from the parrot painted onto the ceiling. I took a moment to visually take in the sizable burrito, considering my options as to how to eat such a large object.
I settled on "one bite at a time".
The steak within the burrito was tender, for the most part, and fairly flavorful. The shredded lettuce was crisp, and the tomato juicy (I don't like tomatoes).
As I sat there, looking at my empty plate and feeling pretty full, the harsh reality set in... man, they could've been a little more generous with the...
