We went to an event nearby to have lunch but decided to stop here instead. We are so happy we did! Great service from a welcoming staff. We ordered beef tacos and the chicken taco bowl. The food was fresh and delicious. Not spicy and served with mild or hot sauce on the side for you to add. The atmosphere is comfortable, bright and welcoming. We can't wait to come back. The food and service turned out road trip into a happy afternoon.

I gotta say portion is good. Food is delicious. Service was fast and courteous. I ate at this place twice this week. Quesobirrias were fire! And Bistec encebollado was on point. Im going to miss this spot!

I had the chicken burrito and the chicken was excellent. Same for the rolled tacos. The regular taco was good but we were not fans of the tortilla chips. Just had the pulled chicken nachos and they were excellent. Upped the stars to five. Great and friendly service. Addendum. After a trip out to the southwest USA and trying multiple Mexican restaurants, I can conclusively say that I tasted nothing that was better than the food I get here.

First off, wow. I ordered the Monster burrito with double steak and nachos with chicken. That Monster was every bit of 2lbs leaning towards three, every bite delicious. I recommend a few doses of hot sauce. Nachos were fresh and crunchy. Both fully loaded w guac, sour cream, pico. Try any flavor of Jarritos, my fave is guava. Food for two and leftovers for lunch.
