We've loved this Nicos for years but over the past few months it has give downhill. I just ordered a carne asada burrito to go and got home to find out that what they now call carne is more like crock pot beef using bad cuts. There was more guacamole and pico than beef in the burrito, but the beef was so bad it might have been on purpose. Very disappointed.

Thanks for burning the chorizo and still serving it up! I usually enjoy the food here. This sucked. Like eating carpet.

Their tortillas are fantastic and authentic. Food is pretty typical, but good. More of a take home experience as the dining room absolutely sucks.
Gee hot wheels Hot wheel

I've eaten here numerous times prior, all without incident, unfortunately that positive streak has quickly ended. Immediately upon entry while attempting to read the menu board the older "gentleman" at the register was noticably annoyed that l didn't have the menu committed to memory. While attempting to read the menu board the entire staff is loudly speaking in Spanish directly behind the register, this interaction makes communication with the cashier difficult. Additionally one female employee is clearly visible, she's eating a plate of food from the kitchen food prep area just inside the kitchen. No one is wearing food safety gloves. I ordered the #3 plate, consisting of x2 shredded beef tacos, rice and beans. Additionally l clearly ordered a medium soft drink. Upon review of the order the older guy leaves off my drink. When I correct him over it he becomes further annoyed with my presence on planet Earth. I found it extremely rude to continue having a conversation with other staff members in Spanish while attempting to take my order and then having an attitude when my order wasn't taken correctly due entirely to his inability to multitask. I paid with my debit card and had to ask for the receipt. The guy then without speaking simply points to the stack of cups indicating that self serve is truly self serve at this establishment. I fill my soda and the food is instantly presented. The tacos are deep fried and the lag time from ordering to presentation is incredibly short, as a result they are heavily oil soaked. They were clearly never allowed to drain. All tables while bused were visibly dirty. Indicating that they were never wiped down. I found my food good but beyond EXCESSIVELY grease soaked. I'm sensitive to grease and would later have stomach issues all day, left feeling uncomfortable and l attribute this to the excessive grease remaining within the tacos upon presentation. Upon sitting at a table, l wiped down my own table removing dried lettuce from it. All of tables were clearly unclean. I tipped my tacos in the plate to facilitate frying oil drainage but it helped little. I found the rice good and the beans exceptionally delicious. I found $18.44 out the door excessively high for what l received. I get cost have risen but there are serious GREED-FLATION factors obviously at play here. The food simply isn't remotely worth what is charged. In closing, l found this establishment overpriced and under performing. I found the staff dismissive and condescending. Clearly they have zero pride in themselves and their food, and zero shame in what they pawn off as acceptable. They operate as if little to no effort is above and beyond. I wasn't expecting perfection but for $18.44 I did expect their best effort at which they clearly failed. This is not an establishment that I'll be returning to. It's not a warm inviting atmosphere where I felt welcomed and I truly never felt valued as a guest. This is not an establishment that I can ever recommend visiting.

Amazing breakfast burritos. I came in after a long bike ride and needed to refuel. Took 7 mins from order to having my burrito.

Fast Mexican food. I was very disappointed in the food and way overpriced. I'd rather go to Filabertos.
