The food was excellent. Jessica, the younger of the two women working there, was one of the rudest customer service employees I have ever encountered. First she got upset with me as I was trying to figure out what to get (it was my first time there!) and told the lady behind me to go ahead. After waiting an additional 5-10 minutes she took my order. I asked for a super burrito primarily because it was listed to have avocado in it and I really like avocado.

Love the jalapeno and cheese tamales!
