I went back a few days ago not realizing where I was agreeing to go for food. They finished the remodel and I hypothesized that prices have increased to offset that remodel.

The quality of the food does not meet the expectations after reviewing the total bill. 50$ of food should fill up a family of 4, ages 37, 37, 10, 7. The kids left hungry after eating and still wanted McDonald's on the way home. No ones over 5 foot 5 inches tall or over 140 lbs.

Will not return if the cost is this high and still requires a visit to McDonald's to satisfy the kids.

Drinks alone can get to 14-20$ for 4 people.

Plus, the staff are rude as he'll to each other. Saw one burn the other off a pan and laugh when the lady was injured.

It’s absolutely disappointing and disgusting. I placed the Phone order today picked it up and noticed my son’s eggs and ham were missing. I called. They said that it would be ready by the time I got there so I went back. My son tried telling me something, but he just kept spitting up the food. I had no idea why I put it in the fridge. My mom started to eat it when she started to notice the eggs and ham were very crunchy. She spit out and inspected the food. There was multiple pieces of eggshell small & big pieces.

Now I know why he wouldn’t eat the food my poor two year-old had no clue how to tell me

Whether this was done intentional because they forgot my food or not they need to be very careful with how they are preparing some of these dishes. I can see a small piece definitely getting away, but this was almost like if they just left big pieces purposely in my two-year-old’s plate.

Tacos and general Mexican dishes are good. Menudo ok no hominy kind of greasy...would not get it again for 17 dollars.

I had the unfortunate experience of chewing this piece of shredded aluminum in my bean and cheese burrito. I suspect if I were to have accepted my initial thought of “oh that’s just a chalky bean” and swallowed this, it probably would have killed me. Luckily I decided to investigate. Hopefully I didn’t inadvertently swallow any other aluminum.

In addition to this which in my opinion makes this restaurant an absolute no-go from now until the end of time, the food was just whatever, and the service was absolutely terrible.

I don’t know if I just happened to go on a bad day or what, like maybe the manager called out today, but there was absolutely no structure to how orders were fulfilled. There was no “order 655, order 665!” at the pickup counter. There was no one bringing orders out to the table. The way you got your order was to go up to the counter and be upset and ask where it is after some indeterminate amount of time.

It sucks, because I really like the atmosphere of this place. It looks kind of like it was an old auto shop that got converted into a restaurant, which is really cool.

Oh well. I’d highly recommend you go somewhere else.

Nice clean place
friendly service
Food was not the best. Lettuce had a bad smell and over powered the flavor.

Meat is fatty and grease. No the best but I think they can do better, tacos are over priced.

my family & I love coming here for the food. today we decided to try out there jalapeño & cheese tamales, unfortunately when we got home we were very disappointed. they were super dry and looked burnt.

The food not the best quality like lots of other places I try 2 different locations and I got sick twice I will never come back again.

I just went there after a long day at work and let me just say that we were there for an hour and when we went to ask about our food they just said that the system wasn't working and didn't even apologize. All of the people that order was missing were Spanish speaking people and families. When I finally got my food I noticed that there were onions on the tacos which I told them my sister couldn't have because she's allergic. A couple minutes into eating my burrito I had to throw up everything I has just eat which was the burrito. This place is racist and definitely has some safety and food violations. NEVER GO HERE! IF YOU DO YOU MIGHT AS WELL EAT IN A HOSPITAL PARKING LOT
