The food is good, but the customer service, specifically at the front….is consistently terrible. The cashier, “Maura”, had an attitude from the moment we ordered (as she always does), entered our order incorrectly, and didn’t provide a receipt. When we realized we were missing 2 consomés we called, she NEVER mentioned anything about bringing the tacos back, we weren’t aware that she had made a mistake on the kind of tacos we wanted, we just thought we were missing our consomés. When we returned we asked just for the two consomés, and we were told we’d have to pay extra to fix an error that was not ours and bring the tacos BACK. When I mentioned that my boyfriend and I come here frequently, she responded by saying she had “never seen me,” only him, pointing at my boyfriend. As if that somehow invalidated what I was saying. That response was dismissive, unnecessary, and honestly shady. Whether it’s me or him, we’re still paying customers placing the same orders. I asked if she was the manager, she immediately said the manager is her cuñado, making it very clear this is a family situation and implying that nothing would be done. That response alone speaks volumes.
To the owner: I hope you actually read this. Keeping someone up front just because they’re family is hurting your business. My boyfriend and I come here multiple times a week, and every time SHE’S working there’s attitude, pushback, and unnecessary tension, even with large orders. We’ve paid extra in the past just to avoid dealing with her, but this situation crossed the line. And judging by older reviews, this isn’t an isolated complaint, it’s a pattern that’s clearly being ignored.
I’m a shift supervisor in fast food, and this level of customer service is unacceptable. Family or not, the person interacting with customers should represent your business professionally. Because of this, we won’t be returning.

Their food is not authentic and the flavor is really lacking.
I consider myself something of a breakfast burrito connoisseur. This place is fast, delicious and a go-to for my breakfast burrito cravings
AMAZING food for a great price!!
We go out of our way just for the food here.
My go to spot for Mexican plates! I HIGHLY recommend the pollo asada plate or the rosarito plate. But anything on their menu will not disappoint.
The staff is friendly and now knows us as regulars 😂
You can eat there but seating isn’t the best.

The food was very tasty and was a generous serving size. The prices are phenomenal especially for the fact that you get so much food at such a great price. The value and taste is definitely worth stopping by. This is one of the few Mexican food spots that still give you plenty of food at a low price. Add it to your bucket list!

Tried out carne asada plate and it tasted old dry and just not fresh. Kind of like microwaving leftovers. Disappointed. Reasonable price nowadays so thats a positive.

I’ve been coming here for over 15 years and have never been disappointed, i have a hard time going to other taco shops, i would say they hit the mark between price, portion size, and quality, their burritos are huge fyi
