Today wasn’t the best day for what is usually a really great restaurant.

The aguas frescas was gross. It wasn’t mixed well and was gritty.

The chorizo taco that I ordered was severely dried out and the meat was flattened into charred, pasty pieces which was strange in my opinion.

The California burrito I ordered was soaking wet with grease from the l small amount of carnitas that was inside it.

The biggest let down of all was that the same burrito was padded with huge pieces of pork fat instead of actual meat. I mean the burrito was filled with probably 70% pork fat and things that are normally thrown out instead of actual meat. I understand that restaurants are being affected by inflation just like the rest of us, but that is not right.

We won’t be back.

UPDATE! I got food poisoning from something I ate here this same day. I was vomiting for two days after I posted this review. Definitely not going back.

Original review: My family and I thoroughly enjoy eating here. Their sandwiches are tasty and big enough to be more than one meal! The tacos, while relatively small, are usually filled with perfectly seasoned meats and they really hit the spot. I definitely recommend...

$8.99 (plus tax) to upend your life. Best sandwich I’ve ever had. In my life. Best ever. I always get the Española, which has Mexican sausage, omelette, beans, jalapeños, cheese, and a bunch of other great stuff on it. Biggest sandwich for ten bucks ever. I usually eat at the one on White Horse rd, but this location is where they bake the bread IN HOUSE. Unbelievable bread. I like this sandwich so much, I literally get what I call a “celebration torta” at the end of every college semester when I get good grades. That’s how I reward myself. (I obviously get them other times, too). This is several semesters running, and I’m going to continue this tradition for every celebratory occasion until I die. One good sandwich can turn your life (and grades) around! I’m dead serious; best sandwich ever. Ask my friends. They call me the sandwich king. I’m not kidding about that, either. Every location I’ve been to is equally good. Salsa bar is tremendous too, with all kinds of…salsa, obviously, but crema and peppers and corn, too. All perfect. Do yourself a favor and go get a torta. Come hungry, and prepared for an...
