“This place is a true hidden gem that deserves all the love! From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with the sweetest smile from the owner—such a kind, humble lady who pours her heart into every homemade recipe. You can taste the love in every sip and bite.

The smoothies, raspas, and aguas frescas are packed with bold, refreshing flavor and served ice-cold in generous portions—perfect for cooling off on a hot day. Their fruit is always fresh and everything is made with care.

There are so many favorites on the menu that it’s honestly hard to choose just one! I’ve been coming here for years, and I still leave wishing they offered more classic refresquería snacks—especially during the summer months.

Also worth mentioning: the place is clean, sometimes a little difficult to find parking during lunch time, but it is handicap accessible. Whether you're stopping by for a quick treat or bringing family along, you’ll feel right at home.

Highly recommend—this spot is a must-try if you're craving something refreshing and made with love!“

“Had 2 barbaquoa tacos and a picadillo taco. My wife had barbaquoa and chicharrones. Flour tortillas for me and corn for her. Meats were good all around. Barbaquoa not too greasy and had good flavor. Yes it had flavor instead of mostly grease lol. Wife raved over the chicharrones tacos and same for her, she enjoyed the flavors for hers also. Will be going back again soon. They have elote and ice cream of all kinds.“

“Wow!!!! This place is spectacular. There is everything. They have any Salvadoran snack here. The owner, Mrs. Rosa, is a sweetheart!!! He's so kind. He has a charisma that not all people usually have. The customer service she provides is quality. It makes you feel welcome every time. How he treats his employees in front of customers, I loved it. I had gone at that time before because they had told me that they sold Millefeuille. Millefeuille is my weakness. She took the time to take my phone number and let me know when the millefeuille would arrive. Today he called me and told me that they had arrived!!! I am super happy with the service and her. I recommend this store 100%!!!

“So I am part of the bean and cheese burrito love community . There’s nothing I love more. This is my first time here. I was a little shocked to order at the restaurant drive-through and pull up to the food truck Not for any reason, but that I was a little confused at first and even reversed.

First off, they were the kindest people ever. They were shocked that I just wanted bean and cheese no meat in a burrito So it took a little more effort to order… But definitely worth the time. These beans are definitely homemade and very, very very flavorful. I got the regular burrito size and extra salsa on the side. The red is definitely spicy enough, which is what I was looking for in the green has nice mild flavor. I did want the super burrito size But looks like they gave me just a regular I wanted a huge heavy cheese and bean…. That being said it was $12 in total. The flavor alone is worth it With the smiles and kindness of the employees.
I would say this is not what I was expecting, but would definitely go through this again for a bean and cheese at this place and they are open 24 hours a day.

“Great tacos for only $2.50 each! They come with 2 tortillas, pico de gallo and salsas come in the small containers. They didn’t have limes, so I was bummed, but the tacos had great flavor. The fajita one was my favorite and had a little bit of a charred taste. The barbacoa one was more like shredded beef - good flavor but a little dry. They both tasted great regardless. Went at 11am and there was a 10 minute wait once I ordered. The service could’ve been a bit better, I was asking questions but they seemed impatient for me to order and kept their responses short. There wasn’t a lot of parking space and just keep in mind it’s next to a bar and neighborhood houses.“
