Ordered from here a couple times. Overall a good experience — tasty food, decent portions, and fair prices in my opinion. Staff are friendly. Fries were better than I expected. I’ll definitely be coming back.

I don’t like that they didn’t have prices the last time we were there. It was almost $40 for a torta special & 5 tacos , large horchata that’s not including the tip. Food is ok….for real authentic food need to go out of town. Aurora or Chicago.

Update September 2024: While I still feel the same way about this place, I will say, their beans are seasoned very well, but they’re like water!! Literal liquid. I come from a Mexican family, and runny beans are normal, but dang! This place takes it up a notch to the point when I return home the beans from my burrito are completely drizzled all over the rice and burrito itself!! I’d still order from here and be happy eating it though.

Update May 2024: Because their beans are the best beans I ever had I will keep coming. I can handle the chicken on the burrito being a tad bit plain. They have very fair prices! I’ve tried 3 local top rated Mexican joints and this is the one I have decided to settle on. It still doesn’t beat jaliscos tacos autenticos in Aurora, but I’m
Not making that drive everyday for a burrito lol.

Old review: This is the plainest chicken I have ever tasted let alone from a Mexican joint. It’s like they boiled plain chicken or maybe even chicken from a can and placed it in a burrito. Where the tomato sauce and spices at?! Still edible. The Beans and rice are top notch. I could’ve made this at home…

They spoke disrespectfully to me and I won’t be coming back.

I had the Burrito dinner made of steak and a Tamale on the side. It wasn’t mixed with beef like Los Tres Burros food and the atmosphere was significantly better than Los Tres Burros. I’m not sure what type of Tamale it was but it was like the traditional Mexican ones my mom makes but at the same time like the traditional Puerto Rican ones my grandpa makes. A little spicy at some parts and the edges at some points were oddly crispy. Recommend asking for sour cream to be added to burrito since it was a tiny bit dry at some parts. Food was overall good.

Food was absolutely amazing but the wait time was very long. I had to wait 45 minutes and i only got a few items and it wasn't busy so im not sure why the wait time was so long. Other than that an amazing restaurant i love the dining area

The food is so good! The vibe is chill since it’s close to campus and it very clean. Definitely great spot to keep on your radar for tacos and everything!
