I got their “giant burrito” it wasn’t even that big. I’ve gone to places that serve burritos 3x their size. I got my food and it was cold.. Worst burritos I’ve had in my 24 years of living. Wish I could get my money and time back waiting for the food. Couldn’t pay me to eat it again. Go to Taco Bell next door. It’s more authentic than this place.

Food was not good at all. Its not a restaurant that you get served. You order sit down and get the food when the call you. Its like a McDonald's. Except the food is not good. I don't plan on going there anymore

It's a family owned restaurant with family recipes. I like the brown hot sauce. I usually get the carne Asada but sometimes get the mole lunch. My coworker will get tacos or empanadas. We like the flavors of the food and the service.

Chicken chimichanga $13.99ish. Extremely small shredded chicken horribly over cooked, dry and hard and watery at the same time, tast like old oil they fried it in. I waited almost 20 min in the drive-thru I guess Taco Bell right next store is going to be the winner next time. Disgusting and disrespectfully disturbing

We have been here many times and the food is always pretty good. I would actually give it 4.5 stars if that was possible. Its pretty quiet which my family likes, the employees are very friendly and the place is clean. Its also open pretty late which is great!

As Taquerias go and with the amount of Mexican restaurants in the area, value and quality are the name of the game. Tacos were decent but on the small side, salsas were okay, option of Aguas frescas would be appreciated. If you are near and in a hurry give it a shot. Prices should be more competitive to reflect value.

I saw this place driving by and thought I'd try it since I'm working in the area for a bit.
The staff is friendly and the dining area is clean.

The food flavor is meh, and the salsa "bar" is weak. They were watered down and the green tomatillo salsa was a weird shade of food coloring green. The salsa cups are thimble size.
The Horchata was nice, but I'm disappointed when I sit down at a Mexican place and they don't have chips and salsa for you. It's just not welcoming. Then to try the salsas they do have and there's not much flavor and they're watered down?
The steak burrito didn't come with beans and it's just not very good, not to mention that it's priced higher than typical for a lightweight burrito.

I tried it once. Due to the lack of flavor, and the higher prices I won't be back a second time.

I think it's worth mentioning, I was there for lunch and there wasn't another person in the dining area, and only one car came through the drive through in the 30 minutes I was there to sit and eat.

A personal complaint: The TV was on CNN and I had to listen to politics when I just wanted to enjoy my break and my meal. I really don't care to be flustered by the state of our overlords when I'm just looking for 30 minutes of calm while I'm off the jobsite. I would have rather had no TV or most anything other than 24 hour coverage of the presidential race. But maybe that's just me.
