It's been a while since I've been here and it was pretty good but tonight the meat was hard and VERY salty (and another customer said the same) I ordered 4 burritos and the temp was warm - my burrito was a simple one meat, rice, and beans no onions it came with all of the above with the second half with light cheese, avocado and a few onions good thing I have no allergies. The guy at the register was nice but I stood there for a few minutes before he looked up from his phone to take my order. $55.00 for 4 burritos that aren't that good is a bit much and they all were different sizes. I should have followed my first mind when I first went in and heard no meat sizzling I should have known it was not going to be fresh and left ( follow your pit) from the reviews the morning is better. They used to be good but now not at all a waste of money..

I stopped here for a breakfast burrito and it did not disappoint! It was gigantic and so filling and so delicious. They also have great vegan burrito.

tacos were bland and SUPER overpriced (if u read other reviews people also agree this place is overpriced) the salsa was not spicy at all and when we asked for grilled onions on the side they gave us like 3 little onion slivers. upon arriving the restaurant was dirty, tables had pieces of meat from the previous people and the floor was filthy, was covered with meat bits, they clearly don’t clean very often. I wouldn’t recommend, you can definitely find better and more budget friendly.

This place is always tasty and my daughter (picky eater) will always eat anything I bring from here. The people are always nice and accommodate any changes I need to my order. Love it.Vegetarian options: The beans and rice are really good.

First, I noticed it’s more expensive than the good burrito places around town. Then, I received the smallest burrito I’ve ever seen. As a joke, it’s hilarious. As dinner, you’ll need 2 or 3.

This place trys to burn so watch out. She added all the extra without asking. Charged me and then when I figured it out. She gave me a hard time, when I told her I didn't want my food like that.

The burrito I got was just average, kind of bland. At first the woman taking orders was very cold and dismissive of me, but I complimented the decor and she warmed up to me. She wasn't very helpful when I was trying to figure out what to order, but I chalked it up to her obvious difficulties with English. I liked the kitschy atmosphere, and enjoyed looking at all the crazy stuff on the walls while a waited a surprisingly long time for my little burrito. I'll probably be back, but I wish they would improve their salsa.
