I went in tonight during rush time it seemed. It was a long line but wow they kept the line moving. When I got up to order the staff were very friendly, the food looked fresh, and awesome service. Not just rushing me through the line. There is a new manager there i think named Karla that always keeps things moving. Kudos ?

Paco, the manager, makes the best chicken by far - exactly the right level of spice, grilling and flavor. Don't change anything please - this is a winner.
