I ran into one of the cooks coming from the bathroom & got to talk to him, he was so kind & helpful as it was our first time! We got to see him make our food in the back & was quick to deliver some AMAZING tacos. We will be back! Thank you Johnny!

I ordered to go Bowl, they told me the restaurant was out of rice but they offered me to put more of the other ingredients, they didn't, the problem was I ordered to go and didn't check my order until I arrived to my destination, I paid 15 dollars for just 5 shrimps and low salad 😔😒
