“I always enjoy this place. Guacamole is great, but the spicy could be spicier. Margaritas are crazy if you like them. This is the Enchiladas Nayarit, made with fish and spinach. There was a slight citrus flavor and the blend was good. The corn is the Street Elote, one of three cobs served.“

“My all time favorite spot for tacos and Mexican food. Prices are reasonable and the service is fast. It’s definitely a hidden gem type of place nestled inside a gas station in the edge of town… but definitely make this a priority to visit. My favorite wis the gorditas and the meals which can easily feed 2.“

“Coming from the west coast, I find this town lacks good Mexican food. I just had the best burritto (hands down) I've ever had being here for 1.7 years. Don't waste your money at La plaza, Taco Hell, or Chipotle. This is where you go. Ty to the staff and tip my hat to the cook!“

“I'm a DoorDash and GrubHub driver and I come by here all the time to pick up deliveries. The boys working are always super friendly and I always love the music they are playing. Today I decided to try out their food for the first time with a friend and I cannot praise it enough. I tried their steak quesidilla for $8 and trust me when I say this, it's better then anything you'll get from Taco Bell or even El Jefe's down the street ? I absolutely loved it. I hope you boys keep up the great work and the wonderful service!“

Yallah Burrito Company Mexican • $

“We had the fish tacos and they were literally the BEST fish tacos I have ever had and I order them all over during my travels. These were unique. There was a slightly sweet coleslaw and salsa with corn on top and the fish batter itself was yummy. I am already craving more. Service was fast. You must try this place and get the fish tacos. Next time, I can't wait to try more options.“

“You could tell they were understaffed. I had to pull around and wait for the worker to bring out my order. Cool, just vibing in my car. This kid was working so hard taking orders at the window and running food outside on a very chilly day. The other 2 people working, made that food so fire! The second I put that chicken chalupa in my mouth... if I was arguing with my S.O. and I took a bite of that, what fight? It was that good. So props to that small team for being fantastic.“
