I came in and was the only one in the line besides somebody at the register already ordered and was waiting. The workers were not ready yet but it took them a while to make a smoothie for the previous customer. I waited for 15 minutes and other people came in so there was a line now. A Hispanic guy walked in, skipped the line and started speaking Spanish with them. They started preparing his order and he got it quickly despite me waiting for over 20 minutes now. After that, they still ignored me. I'm sure they would have acknowledged me if I wasn't a black woman.

Usually I would give this place a 3 starts but today they will get 1 stars. I have been here a few time for lunch and it has always been good with good service. However, today I was interesting. I wanted to get chicken only. I ask the women if I can get a small container with only chicken. She politely said yes. I then asked how much would that cost me. She said $5. I thought great because I wanted to add it to my lunch that i brought from home. When i got back to the office I figure that there would have been maybe 2 legs and a thigh or 2 leg and a wing. instead I open the box and saw that there was one leg in the box. To my disbelief this woman charged me $5 for a freaking leg. That is straight madness. not even the jerk spot would sell you a leg for $5.
Never again. I felt like they scared me. If I had known that I would have not bought it. It would have made sense it the woman said a small is 1 leg for $5. Give the customers a choice to buy. Don't tell them it is a small and then put one leg in a container.

The prices can seem very unreasonable. $20 for a birria quesadilla is crazy and the quality doesn’t match the price. The Mac a cheese isn’t good at all. And the beef stew has good flavor but the meat is tuff. They have so many things on the menu but they aren’t that good at cooking it. Only good thing is 1/3 of the menu they make fresh. Stay away from any hot food they have prepared in advance including the birria NOT WORTH THE MONEY!

Ordered Birria Tacos (to stay) and Chicken Tacos (to go),
The Birria Tacos were good enough, birria meat was seasoned and so was consome, however the masa tortilla was very bland so did not resemble birria tacos unless i dipped it in the consome. (The picture shows how white the tortilla of the tacos appear). The chicken tacos were good as well, however charged me the same price (5 dollars a taco) even though I requested to have my order without guac or sour cream). So i felt like this and the Birria tacos ($6 each) were not worth the price for the location being, and the serving size of the food, only 2 tacos, and each order came with 3 slices cucumber on the side. Overall, restaurant service was respectful and quick, but would only recommend if you are in a rush for food.

The man doesn’t give enough information while serving the food. Charges extra without communicating. The woman doesn’t understand you when you’re placing the order in English and gives you the wrong thing.

When I went in there to order My mail they didn’t have one of the sides I wanted so I left. I came back and I just got the chicken originally my meal was supposed to be to stay, but she gave me the chicken to go. As I proceed to open the container with my chicken in it, the chicken she gave me was so burnt and dry. I feel like she did it on purpose cause she thought I wasn’t going to stay and because I changed my mind the first time About wanting to purchase the meal. Before I even decided to order my food, I went to look at the baked chicken And I didn’t see no burnt chicken all the chicken was nice brown. I didn’t see that one burnt chicken inside so that means she purposely searched and make sure I got that burnt chicken. I should’ve took a picture instead. I was mad. I gave them the food and I got my money back. As I proceeded to walk to receive my refund, she’s seen that I got up and she tried not to make any eye contact. Never again If you don’t like your job, go work somewhere else.

The chicken was burnt and the plantain was burnt as well. The beef was overly cooked and hard

I went here for the first time recently to try their Birria tacos and I was not disappointed at all. They’re the perfect balance of savory, spicy, and cheesy. I also saw they had Mac and cheese so I tried a little cup of it (pictured) and the Mac and cheese was perfect to go along with it. The sauce wasn’t too thick or liquidy. Would 10/10 recommend this place to a friend, and would 20/10 come here after my undergrad is finished up.

Don't walk, run to Ovi's place. The best collard greens I've ever had. I ordered the chicken with collard greens and vegetables. You can literally taste the love. My soul enjoyed this delicious homemade food. It tasted like something my grandmother would've made. Homemade mouth watering perfection. I got it delivered, and was given an ETA of 20 minutes, it arrived piping hot in about 10 minutes. Google needs to add more stars, 5 just isn't enough.
