As a Texan I wasn’t expecting to find such great food out in the middle of California! The food came out super fast and everything was so delicious. The man behind the counter was also really friendly! I especially enjoyed their birria tacos and chicken enchiladas. Only thing I could say is the carne asada meat combo was not very tender. The prices are very reasonable for great portions. Overall great food!

Great food. Friendly and fast staff. Huge portions! We should have split meals! The burrito is big enough for two. Great chips and guacamole too! My boys both ordered two flautas but one filled them up!

I ordered the Fajitas and paid extra for all three (steak, chicken and shrimp) and it was well worth it for $20 -includes 3 corn tortillas, chips, salsa, and bottled Coke. Generous portions and good ratio of meat to onions and peppers. The service was fast and food was made to order, it came out fresh n hot in less than 10 minutes.

This was the absolute best California burrito I’ve had in humboldt county. The tortillas was even grilled. Everywhere was so fresh and this thing was huge. All the toppings in there tasted so good you can even taste the fresh cilantro. The spicy salsa verde was also amzing!!! And the chips are the thick crunch kind which are bomb. I also went back since then and got the breakfast burrito with ham and extra cheese, which tasted phenomenal!!! It’s so hard to find good Mexican food in humboldt county and this place is the absolute best every time and never disappoints!!! The salsa is amzing the chips are nice and thick everything here is just so good
