Oh.. this place was just SO bad it was comical. I'm leaving two stars because the two guys prepping the food were really cute - honestly, the one with short, dark hair and gorgeous eyes was absurdly dreamy (but I could almost hear the wind whistling between his ears).
The food was horrible. It was bland, overcooked, dry, just broadly tasteless, and wildly underwhelming. To make matters worse, these two beautiful airheads had no concept of portion control or food presentation. The ingredients for my "burrito bowl" were just dumped willy-nilly into the container, so haphazardly in fact, that by the time all was said and done it looked almost regurgitated.
I guess I'll also give the establishment a little extra credit for being impressively clean - the guys were really good about changing their gloves between each order prep and repeatedly wiping down surfaces (if you care about that kind of stuff). Truthfully, though, I'd rather visit a slightly dusty hole-in-the-wall with better food.
This is far from authentic Mexican food, and probably only palatable if you're of a specific demographic that thinks black pepper is spicy. I never want to cross the threshold of this "restaurant" ever again.
I'd love to get my $22 back, but that may be as much of a lost cause as my...
Read moreBeen here a few times during the pandemic. I’ve always gotten takeout (picked up at the door) and the food is good, but not amazing. A lot of ingredients taste like they are store bought (ex. It tastes like the guacamole that comes in a container that they add tomatoes and onions to). The food is expensive for the portion size and taste, but I was committed to supporting local businesses. Service has always been nice.
Fast forward to today when I ordered takeout while physically in the store. In all honesty, the place could use a good clean. There is dirt on the floors, all over their tortilla press and various other locations where they prepare/serve food. I ordered a bowl. The meat options looked like they had been sitting there for hours and were cold. I visited right as they were opening and they were scraping the last crusty bits of chorizo out of the tin to serve to me. Obviously no one had started cooking yet. I found two hairs in my food later on.
All in all, the flavor isn’t horrible and worth, in my opinion, the high price if you’re into the sort of fake Mexican food thing (no judgment meant, I love fake Mexican food and authentic Mexican food!). But I don’t think I’ll be back after seeing the condition of the...
Read moreAn overall great experience here! The restaurant is extremely clean, the staff was so friendly and kind, and the food is delicious. I was craving a breakfast taco, so the gentleman helped me navigate through the order, as it wasn’t something they typically offer. Since I am a vegetarian, they were so helpful with talking through options for what I could put in the taco. We ended up deciding on egg, plant-based protein, tater tots and cheese. He also gave me samples of their hot sauces to choose from; both the carrot and jalapeño were delicious, so we added that as well. The tacos were great and the portion size was perfect. There was an additional charge for eggs, which I didn’t understand since I think eggs come without an extra charge on their burrito(?). The guys were so helpful, and the tacos were delicious, but I took off one star for the price; the total came out to about $40- for two orders of breakfast tacos and one orange juice. That feels like an exorbitant amount of money for eggs, potato, and plant based meat on tortillas. I want to continue to support this local business, but definitely have to consider...
