“Warning! if you eat here for lunch you're gonna need a nap before going back to work. The portions are generous and the toppings are fresh. There's always a line but it's moving quickly. Only downside is they need a larger dining room as it's always packed.”

“My family went for lunch, and we were blown away with how tasty everything was! Our server was very helpful, and the food was delicious. Not your standard Mexican restaurant. It has some familiar dishes but also things like menudo. I highly recommend. We will definitely go back!”
