Food was delicious, staff was friendly and the whole place was very clean, even the bathroom
This place is somewhat hidden off San Fernando Rd, and parking can be a headache. It gets busy from opening till closing, and for a good reason. I ordered their Ceviche Candelejas and their Asada Burrito Mojado with salsa Verde, and it was delicious. Good flavor, a generous amount of meat in the burrito, and the price was reasonable. Highly recommend this place.
Fire, need to stop for lunch...
