I travel often, and no Chimichanga I’ve tried compares to the one here. The portions are generous, the flavors are authentic, and the quality is unmatched—even among top chains. If you're in the area, I highly recommend this spot. Just be warned: it’s hard not to clean your plate!
July 2025
The food is great, and the time for food is okay, depending on how busy they are. but they need to hire some busers to clean off tables so people aren't waiting around for a table.
October 2024
The food is delicious, as a suggestion I would put at least one spicy sauce ?️ for the taste of Mexicans since I feel that the ones that have none are really spicy, from then on everything is delicious.
