Angel Heather and Pina were excellent! They all had great warm smiles and made the place feel very welcoming. The food was delicious! We also had asked to turn on the fire and they went out of their way to replace the propane tank. I love that level of customer service when they truly did not have to. It made the experience that much better! We live kind of far but would love to come back!

The Mexicali taco was out of this world! Also tried the surf n turf, and it was delicious. The elote is a must, it was perfectly seasoned. Super fast service, friendly, and overall a fantastic place.

Stopped in while doing a little road trip up the coast for dinner. Tacos were a bit fancier than I was expecting but did not disappoint at all! If I'm ever back in the area I'd stop by again. Pollo City Tacos were literally a flavor explosion 😋
