“All I’m going to say is WOW. I wish I could rate them a million stars lol I first had their food at the cinco de mayo festival and was obsessed since then. I was finally in the area again and went to their actual restaurant to get more of their food. There was a little mix up where we got charge for a second meal on accident so they offered to refund us and the girl was so apologetic. But the way I look at it is I got lucky lol i was able to have extra for later that day for dinner instead. Definitely amazing customer service and the food is literally top notch. I cannot wait to go back and get more. Hopefully soon. But I HIGHLY recommend them.“
