Burrito was good. Workers are good. Tortillas for burritos have shrunken since I’ve been here last. I would say it’s 3/4 if the size it used to be. So $20 for a small burrito and horchata is steep.

I went there tonight with all 4 of my nephews. Vanessa provided excellent service with a side of Spanish beginner lessons. The $7.00 Margaritas on Wednesdays are great. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Absolutely disappointed. I’ve ordered from the 26th street location many times but tonight was just bad. I ordered a burrito and for $15, I got one that fits in the palm of my hand. It’s also a plain steak burrito. When I’ve ordered, I’ve never mentioned to add rice or beans yet tonight when I called customer service I was told they come plain unless otherwise specified. WHAT. As others have stated, they are inconsistent. It’s a hit or miss with this place. 5/5 for customer service though because I received a credit but next time will be my last time visiting. Try visiting another place to avoid disappointment.

Excellent steak chorizo tacos on corn tortillas! I had a side of black beans. Very basic & delicious. My order was served to me after ordered with the cashier.. Somewhat difficult to reach small business. inside tables for maybe 25 customers, about 4 outdoor tables.

I was staying at a hotel down the street and decided to wander while looking for food. Very glad I wandered in here! I had the steak fajita, rice and beans, and an enormous bag of mixed corn and wheat chips with very spicy salsa. I could barely finish my meal because there was so much food. Delicious food at a good price. Fantastic service too. One of the ladies brought my food to the table and moved a chair so I could park my wheelchair, while another held the door for me. Very much appreciated.

I am in love with these tacos. The meat is delicious! My only comment would be that they don’t give you lime when you order online ? and the salsas could be better, otherwise, they are truly mexican grill tacos ??

Go to place when you need something yo fill you up quickly! My go to is the burrito bowls and they never disappoint. Always get a great amount of meat. For $15-20, you can easily feed 2 people at this place.

I enjoy the food a lot. The stelote is a favorite of mine. But lately it’s been very inconsistent. For a $17 burrito I’d expect a decent sized one. But there will be times it’s a very small burrito that I wouldn’t even pay $8 for or it’s a big burrito that is worth the $17. But every time I order it, it’s very inconsistent and I don’t appreciate being surprised with a tiny burrito when I can get a bigger one for half the price somewhere else. If you’re going to charge that much. Keep it consistently large. I went 3 different times in the last 6 weeks and each time the burritos were different sizes ranging from small, medium, to large. Disappointed by the inconsistency. Do better. Both burritos in the pics below are on different days. The one where my hand is open is when it was a big burrito and the other was the same size as a $5 Taco Bell burrito.
