We order carnitas plate and 4 tacos. The beans are obviously can, rice taste like Celery only, the salad was already going bad, the guacamole WAS already bad. The tacos had NO FLAVOR super greasy. I don't mind spending money. But i want good food for it. Don't waste your money here

I just ordered a burrito over the phone and went in and picked it up. The place was clean and the food was fresh. Definitely will go back when I'm in the area.

I ordered the #4 combo, beef taco, cheese enchilada, rice and beans. The beef taco and enchilada were spot on, with texture and flavor profiles. The refried beans also quality flavorful and smooth texture. I wasn’t a fan of the rice, not much seasoning and a-little mushy. 3/4 definitely deserves another opportunity to visit this establishment.

Gave this place a try, carne asada was nicely cooked, but flavor was non-existent. Same with rolled tacos, no flavor in the tortilla roll or meat at all, just pure lettuce/cheese taste. salsas all tasted very weird/ chemical-like as well. The only thing I liked was the refried beans. Why are you afraid of using salt?

Friendly service and chips served with the 3 beef tacos and the fountain drink. There are no labels for a hot sauce bar but mild to hot going left to right. The beef tacos are moist, but they could use a bit of salt for better flavor. Overall, it's not bad, and I will go back again .

The food was absolutely horrible. This was our first time there and it was flavorless and mediocre. Then they wanted us to bring it back for the refund when we live on the other side of town. My husband said mexican food is declining in CA and if you go here to eat, you will see it firsthand. If I can give it negative i would

They dont use gloves when packaging food. When kindly asked to put on gloves while packing my order they seemed offended. If you want food poisoning, this is the taco shop for you
