Used to be a lot better in terms of value and product, but has lately become generic. I used to be able to taste my mom’s level of cooking (Mexican) but now, I get over cooked chicken and flavorless food. I’m disappointed also because they raised prices but the quality got worse. If an avocado is grey and brown I don’t think it’s good to sell. Makes me sad cause the employees are really nice and welcoming.

Reliable neighborhood spot! Only critique is that their items may be a bit salty at times, but the taste is on point! Everything is very affordable too, compared to city prices. I got 3 Carnitas tacos to-go for only $3.50 each!! The staff wrapped each taco separately so it doesn't get soggy altogether. All the taco fixings come with the order as well.

I've also tried other dishes here (Torta, Chicken Enchilada) and they were all pretty solid. They're opened till late as well, so it satisfies late night cravings!

If you order pickup , they start the order when you get there ….. I had a kid in the car freaking out waiting 30 minutes for an order with my wife….. don’t order pickup here if you can’t wait . Food is ok otherwise

Excellent place, good service, delicious meals. My recommendation for the place would be not to play the music so loud because you go and have to shout with your companion to be able to hear, but apart from that everything is fine ? recommended.

The person who answers the phone has a horrible manner, it is not the first time and several people have already complained about the service, the food is very delicious but the service leaves a lot to be desired! Horribleeeee

I'm a regular customer, I like their food and seasoning; but I have to say I'm disappointed for today's service. I received my order and notice my drink was open. I call the resturant and was assured someone was coming back with a replacement. I didn't receive anything! (No drink, No money refund, store credit, or phone call) On the other hand, my hibiscus drink was expired (funky smell). I recommend customers to be careful and check your drinks!

Flavor isn't there, I ordered a nice order for my fam and it wasn't what I was expecting tacos never goes with tomatoes unless is Pico de Gallo and that's optional, needs to improve flavor and fresh ingredients.
Disappointed ?

Nachos were very tasteful! I would definitely recommend and order that again! But the tacos were okay and lacked cilantro and onions overall 8.5/10

Called and placed my order. When I got to the restaurant I asked why my total was higher than normal. I asked for the receipt and ask why I was being charged double for a small rice and beans. The girl there looked at me and said they have to charge me separately for the rice and then for the beans. Wait what?? On their menu a small rice & beans is $4. So why am I being charged $8?? Her excuse was some people take the rice and some people take just beans...Please tell me how that makes any sense. On your menu it's says $4 for a small rice and beans. Not $4 for rice and $4 for beans. Avoid this place, the food is alright but after today I'll never be returning. I'm not sure why I was told this, I've been eating here for a while and they've tried over charging me before but always said "oh sorry" like they made a mistake but today, she flat out looked at and was like "this is how much it is now" update your online menu then!!!

There's a another Mexican spot on Ave U, go there!
