Edit: Feb 2021

Great food, clean, very fast,even when busy. Very friendly and eager to help/serve.

Communication is ok when ordering Basic items. If you customize your order or add/remove items it gets difficult. Examples of issues my guests and myself have come across: Asking for 1 corn tortilla on a taco instead of the 2 they offer(yes it's easy to remove the extra tortilla but most time they stick together and rip both apart). Asking for no beans with a meal that has beans. Asking for no rice for a food that comes with rice. Asking to substitute beans for rice or vice versa. Asking for no onions on tacos or in burritos. Asking and paying for added cheese or other added/extra items, and not receiving it. I'm not sure the disconnect. I speak a small amount of spanish and have tried to use translation apps to be sure I was using the language properly. It must be the ticket writing that the cook gets. BESIDES these frustrating meal mix ups and not getting 100% what you wanted. I will continue to recommend this place and eat there when the stars align. I know this place could be great with better communication between front and...

Came here because it's close to my house and the food looked great as me and my partner walked in we heard another customer ask for the sour cream they had ordered with there meal as the lady helping the customer handed him his sour cream she requested another 2.50 he told her the situation and she still charged him another 2.50 that was the first red flag. We thought nothing of it and proceeded to ask some questions about the soups because they didnt offer a description or a photo she tells us what's in the soups and we order the barrier we watch her type it in and proceed to order a steak burrito with guacamole on the side and two drinks the order came out to 13.95. We proceeded to wait twenty minutes for the burrito we waited another ten minutes or so for the soup and the asked the lady about how much longer it would be for the wait on the soup she told us we never ordered soup and when my partner tried to order another soup she tries to charge him another 13.95. We have no problem paying for food but when you blatantly take an order and then try to scam a customer by charging them same price twice...

From the outside it doesn't look like much, but as soon as you take your first bite you feel the food in your soul. My kid and I had never eaten there and decided to give it a try. We over ordered due to wanting to try a few things. We had the Chile(that is how they spell it) cheese fries, chicken quesadilla, and crisp tacos. He got the 5 and I had the 3 meal. Needed to try the rice and beans also. The rice is hands down the best rice I have had at any Mexican restaurant, the beans were really good also; it's hard to make beans great but they were pretty close. The quesadilla was made on a burrito tortilla so it was large. We tried the 3 sauces they offer to go orders and to say the hot sauce was hot is an understatement; this coming from someone who ate ghost pepper fries for 6 months straight. The crisp rolled tacos were crispy and flavorful with just a hint of softness. We had the beef and it was not ground beef like most restaurants with a drive thru. We did opt out of all things Guac because we are not fans. But I highly...
