It's in the middle of a farmer's market, so be ready to navigate with Google maps set to the walk option, it's the only way I found its exact location. It also is accompanied by a very expensive parking lot; I suggest parking at whole foods/Walgreens and walking over to order your food to-go, so you won't have to pay to park. Everything on the menu takes about 15-20 minutes tops to cook so you have plenty of time to walk over, make your order and get it in time to return to your car. It's a tight window, but for the experience it is definitely worth it. The service was oddly aggressive yet friendly - they move at a quick pace so it's best to grab a menu and get familiar before ordering. It's a pretty short but well rounded menu with fair pricing : you get what you paid for, which is a nice healthy proportioned savory flavor journey that keeps you coming back for more. Everything on the menu was attractive, don't be worried or shy like I was about the choice. Every dish we ordered was a moderately large sized meal so there was no problem with the order being about $80 for four meals. There are also tempting options nearby, we actually were exploring anyway so we tried a drink shop that specialized in mixed and blended fruits that was right next to the place and it accompanied our meal very nicely. The drinks are $8-12 dollars but they're loaded with a blended harmony of flavors that are both healthy and rejuvenating so again pricing was mildly agreeable. Just be ready to spend about $500 personally in this area alone, there are a lot of things that will catch...
Read moreThe food was reay good, I purchased a Beef barbacoa quesadilla, and a taco as well!!! I wanted to love this place, because I love Trejos donuts as well, and the vibes there are usually immaculate.
Coming here though....let's just say that I won't be back to this location unless they either reprimand the white bird looking lady with the glasses, and actually manage their staff, or they just plain let her go. Everyone in line (including myself) was treated so poorly. I asked if they validated parking, and she just huffed and said yes. I paid, and was waiting for her to validate the parking, but she did everything she could to avoid me afterwards. We waited 5 min in that line, and it just kept growing, while she paced back and forth like a chicken with its head chopped off. I started to look at the merchandise resting by the register, and thats when she finally looked over to acknowledge me. I asked her if I could get my parking validated, and she rolled her eyes, and craned her neck so far backwards, it looked like it was about to fall off. We waited in that line so long that our buzzer went off to signal thay our food was ready. She then yelled "you can walk around the corner to pick up your food". We let her know that we just wanted to get our parking validated first, for the third time trying to get through to her. She groaned and snatched my ticket out of my hand. Please do better and head my warning. This is not the kind of staff that you...
