I Doordashed some food, and the driver never came. The restaurant manager was kind enough to hold onto the food for me after the restaurant closed, and even after I picked up my order, called Doordashed to get me a credit on my account for the inconvenience. A great guy, excellent food, and even better customer service. Highly recommend.

The prices are reasonable but the burrito I had today really lacked flavor, the pico de gallo in it had no flavor to it at all. It’s not as good as I remember it, last time I had food from here was 2021.

I came from out of state and love finding hole-in-the-wall food joints. I’ve had burritos from New Mexico, Texas, California, Arizona, Nevada and Wisconsin and let me tell you… these burritos right here are hands down the BEST. They are SOOOOO GOOOD!!!!!!!

Parking: Go to the back of the restaurant to park.
