Best food in the whole land of USA. I can’t find another place that makes giant burritos or crispy salty fries like these guys do. They also have a place in romeoville that’s just as good.
Tacos ate good

The order taker/cashier was very sweet and quickly took our order. The order was to go and ready in a timely manner. The only thing is that we ordered chips and salsa to go but they were not included. Thanks

**Long Overdue Review – Consistently Outstanding**
I’ve been to this place *many times* and can’t believe I’ve never taken the time to write an honest review. It’s long overdue.
The food here is **exceptional** — every single dish I’ve tried has been flavorful, fresh, and clearly made by a kitchen team that knows exactly what they’re doing. You can taste the quality and care in every bite. The service? Just as impressive. Friendly, efficient, and consistent across every visit.
On top of that, the place is **immaculately clean**. From the dining area to the restrooms, everything is always spotless — a clear sign of pride and professionalism behind the scenes.
This place has *never once* disappointed, no matter how many times I’ve come. That kind of consistency is rare and worth recognizing.
**Highly recommended — and I’ll absolutely keep coming back.**

We recently tried this Mexican restaurant and were seriously impressed. The burritos were made exactly as ordered—no mistakes—and packed with a generous amount of steak. The service was also exceptional: we were told it would take 10 minutes, but our food was ready in just 5.
The nachos were another standout. Even after sitting in the fridge overnight, they held up incredibly well—no sogginess at all. We actually ranked them in our top 2 nachos from all the places we've tried.
At this point, it's safe to say this is our new favorite spot for burritos. That said, we’re holding out to see if the quality holds up on a second visit—other places have let us down on the follow-up. But so far, things are looking very promising.
