Looks like cat food. Smells like trash. No thanks.

Ordered the shrimp burrito, and it literally couldn't have been more bland. Decided to try slathering it in the hot salsa, but it was essentially tomato water that they ground some pepper in. The chips literally had more heat than the salsa. Wife said the beef taco salad was better, so I guess they've got that going for them.

I have to give this location a 5 star. All other locations around town need to take notes on what they’re doing at this silver lake location! I have eaten at every islands location multiple times over the years and you can include this past year for this review as well for what is happening right now. I have run into either food not warm, hard rice, no flavor, bad chips, not enough beans or rice and even carelessness in making tacos.
NEVER at this location have I been disappointed. The food is fresh, warm and full of flavor. Chips always fresh and service is fast. Again, whatever yall are doing here needs to be passed onto the other islands! You’re the #1 spot out of all islands locations by far.

The chicken is disgusting. It tastes like freezer burned over cooked and even looks nasty. The queso and chip were good. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant until they get actual fresh chicken.

Pricing and online ordering was nice and easy, but the food was not very good. Flavor of everything just tasted off and some of the other food was watery.

Rice was undercooked, staff seemed slow to respond to customers at the counter. The overall food quality just didn't seem that great charged for water to drink. Unfortunately this place is just not what it use to be.

Tortillas for the burrito should be heated on the stove/skillet not steamed like a dumpling.
