Lola once a chef puts his touch in for a great meal in every way!!

If it wasnt for Oscar's generosity and great customer service. CM would have gotten one star. Missing items worth over 10.00 Grubhub Aldo screwed us. Food gets here as the dude is approaching I can see food that spilled out of the container inside the bag along as onto the top of the other containers (Yea not to mention the missing food they knew nothing about) So I'm not sure if it spilled or what but dude wasn't even apologetic blamed it on CM. I'll never use Grubhub again. Do urself a favor don't give them any of your money.

Delicious! I stop in and get carne asada tacos frequently. They are always running special offerings of elote, birria tacos, and other delicious-looking things as well, but I'm a purist! If you want a good, traditional corn taco, this is the spot. The burritos are excellent, too.My only critiques are that the bottled drinks are overpriced (you can get a Jarritos up the street for half the price), and the chicken isn't very flavorful.

The food is good, but the customer service is very poor, except with us.

The food we ordered was very delicious, but the attention they gave us was with a terrible attitude, I was very disappointed with how it looks, the difference to our community we arrived we had to go through the menu and go to order on our own, when some Non-Latinos sat them down, they brought them drinks, they took their order at the table and because we were Latin, they didn't serve us. Very badly!!

Tacos were excellent - had three types and loved them all! Prices can't be beat for authentic Mexican food. Service left a little to be desired, but worth it for the food and prices!

Below is my review from before they were hit by the bland food thing. No salt ?By far the BEST Mexican food in Lancaster.

Very authentic Mexican food. A great environment where you can bring your kids and enjoy authentic Mexican cuisine for very cheap.

I wanted to love this place so badly. I love Mexican food and I have had some good meals here. Unfortunately it's been a long time. The food is inconsistent. I order a burrito, one day it's good, the next, it's not. I've gotten stems/twigs from avocados & tomatoes in the burrito a couple of times. Sometimes the meat is overdone and difficult to chew. Other times I get big chunks of just fat, no meat. It's unappetizing. There just seems to be a lack of quality control, lack of consistency in general in preparing and putting together the meals. They started charging 1.25 for sauce, which I think is a bit much since it's so integral to the meal itself. But even then, I'd order online, I'd order over the phone, pay for the sauce and they forgot to add it again and again. I'd call and say "hey you guys forgot this and this" they'd ask me if I'd want to come in and get it? No I ordered delivery because I can't get it. There were times I'd go for pick up, ask "is this and this in the bag?" They'd confirm yes, I leave, go home and nope, it's not there. They don't apologize and sound annoyed or incredulous. I was spending money there regularly and being met with aggravation, when I was paying for items they'd forget to bag and send out. I was always polite and essentially apologizing for bothering them. They never said sorry or tried to fix it. And the food lacks flavor and freshness at times. I hope they get back on point because when it's good it great. The vibes in the restaurant are nice, even if the staff isn't always friendly, they're fine- but the inconsistency with the food is untenable as a local and patron. I gave them three stars for location, clean establishment, nice vibes inside, great sauces and chips, once upon a time good food. I haven't ordered food or stopped by in months, I just stopped being a customer. I couldn't do it anymore. I hope it's gotten better.

We ordered two burritos along with other things. These were supposed to have steak. Instead, we kept pulling pieces of fat out of the burrito. It was so dry, it was hard to swallow. No sauce or sour cream was given. This food was thrown together so badly. We told DoorDash and they don’t allow food to be refunded. Horrible food and cheap people! NEVER AGAIN!
