Used to love this place. But my most recent order of Pollo Asado was greasy and had hard pieces, like bone. Prices have gone up way too much, more than double, so no longer worth it. Very disappointing. This place used to be busy, but there were very few customers now when I went in.

Portion sizes were small. I got carne asada fries and the plate was half full. My brother got a carne asada burrito and it was tiny. They only had one type of salsa. The salsa was an orange color and was nasty.

Absolutely terrible restaurant, had a long day and ordered take out. Simply asked for a Cali burrito with sour cream and guac with pico. I get home it’s just meat dry fries and cheese. Do not come here!!!

Got a breakfast burrito and Carne asada fries had no flavor on either of them. Burrito is small and carne asada fries were served a little bit in the plate. I wouldn't be coming here. Too expensive for not good food.

Food is horrible. They are better tasting Mexican food if you're willing to travel a couple mins more. Avoid this place at all cost.

An utter disappointment with the food and service. I ordered California Burrito, Carne Asada Fries, pickled veggies and fried jalapeños for a take out. The Carne Asada Fries made me vomit from the first bite: soggy fries uncooked in the middle, probably frozen fries thrown in the microwave, lots of nasty cheese all over, the meat was overcooked, dried and hard to chew, cardboard consistency and a "dead man" taste to it. Both items had cold pockets and barely warm, which made me wondered if they were ever cooked or just frozen meals thrown in a microwave and not even long enough??Guac not fresh, probably bought from the store, and some watery sour cream on top. That for $15. The California Burrito was the same. I took a bite and same awful ingredients and horrible taste. I had a horrible indigestion and was sick until the next day after eating some of this awful meal. The pickled veggies were ok, although I had to throw them away too because they were incredibly spicy, like they poured the entire bottle of pepper on them. The fried jalapeños were not even fried, but almost raw, so what's the point of advertising them as fried? $35 for a dinner for two worthy of the garbage can. Oh, and the portions are incredibly small for the price. Carne asada fries is a thin layer of rubbish, most of it nasty cheese and the burrito is very thin and small with just a spoon of ingredients.My first time here, waited 10 minutes for the server to finish her chat and come take the order. I was trying to get some info about the food because the menu was displayed over different walls and I could not see it from the cash register. I was the only customer and she gave me all kinds of attitude for asking simple questions about the ingredients.I was happy to discover and support a mom and pop Mexican store close to my new home, but not anymore. I will keep traveling all the way to Los Rancheritos in Lakeside for the exquisite food and service.

I've been going here since 2005 and it has yet to disappoint. Recommend the Carne asada fries. Grab some spicy carrots too. Always yummy ?
