“This place is LIFE! Like ermerlawd! The best tacos I've ever ever eaten. Ever. Usually I don't care to make a post about a food joint but this place it tops. The portions of what I order (Steak tacos with cilantro and cheese) is more than fair for the price. You get a fresh lime wedge. Everything is cooked fresh too! I've formed a taco addiction. But its all good. The food is worth it. The cashiers are amazingly nice. They make me feel like an old family friend, because ive been there so much this week haha, they're really great. This place is overall a 12/10. If you don't try it you are missing out on the best chance youll take in 2019. Its your year go make it! Go eat tacos“

“I visited this location on May 4th, after driving just down the road from a disappointing meal at another restaurant. I have nothing bad to say about this place. I came in at rather a slow time I guess, because I didn’t think the place was open, but the cashier in the convenience store part of the establishment assured me they were open. The young lady that waited on me was so pleasant and inviting, it was as if we were longtime friends. That really drew me in and made me feel better about stopping here. I ordered a huge burrito and a first time “fish taco”. The fish taco was actually pretty good; I ate it first. The burrito on the other-hand was “Exceptional”. It was one of the better burritos I’ve had over the years to be honest. Nice big chunks of choice meats and an above average size, making me definitely feel this place was worth the stop. I’ll gladly recommend this place and stop by again in the future.“
