Eat there on 8/18/2024 while passing through. Ordered cheese enchilada, beef taco, and rice and beans. Taco beef had a weird tase and the rice was not very good. The beans, well they were ok.

The best of the El Nopals. Staff always quick & friendly. Food quality very consistent. My wife loves tortilla soup, but only from this location. Their carnitas are juicy & flavorful, never over cooked.
