Yes it's inside a gas station. Yes it's still fire. Yes they have green chile as a menu item. Recommend the carne asada fries and Birria Tacos, Horchata is also great. Highly recommend.

I keep getting the super burrito because one cook makes it good, but most of the time it sucks. I should start getting something else I guess. The carne in the burrito is chewy, even when it's good. They have two different green sauces and they're both fire but I don't speak Spanish so it's hard to get both. The red sauce is fine too. Honestly I guess this place is mid. I like that it's in a convenience store so I can get other shit while I'm here.

Parking: The drive thru is horrible, small cars are ok but trucks beware! I actually had to get out and ask the people behind me to back up so could back my (F-350 long bed) out of there. So just a heads up if you drive a full size truck USE the walk up window.
