“👍👍👍👍👍Had a terrific lunch here on Monday (6/23/25). Staff were all friendly and accommodating. Food was great. Not your regular Mexican dishes, more like Mexican with a unique twist! I had the Quesabirria (kind of like a quesadilla)and Ashly had the Birria Stew. We each chose lamb for the meat. These were made well, delicious and beautifully presented. Using lamb and the Birria style gave everything a unique, delightful flavor! It was a perfect afternoon for eating outside, too.”

My white mocha was tasty, I can't wait to come back and try all the fresh juices. I had the birriaquiles, and my husband ordered the chilaquile hash. Both were so good. The sauces are delicious and homemade. Everything was fresh and you can tell they put a lot of thought into their food. Can't wait to come back and try other items!”

To top off that horrible experience, the rude old lady manager laughed and called me a liar, then got an attitude with me. Horrible place even worse service. Don't eat here if you don't want to get food poisoning.”

“Not only did I get my delicious tamales to celebrate Christmas, but in my haste and distraction I left my wallet on the counter and the employees kept it for me. An hour later, when I was about to pay at this other place I realized I did not have my wallet. I called Victor’s Restaurant and they had it. My wallet was intact, and nothing was taken from it. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your honesty. God bless all of you. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.”

The staff did not speak English, and I don't speak much Spanish - but ordering wasn't too difficult. It's also a neat convenience store and a check-cashing establishment. I will absolutely be going back for another menu item, I have no doubt it will be delicious.”

“I just spent $18 on a breakfast burrito with eggs, cheese and bacon and diet coke at airport in Salt Lake City! I had to ask customer service rep to drain the bacon! Bacon was sitting in a metal container with grease! I don't understand why this is being allowed! not only is this hugely unsanitary, but also vary gross to see the Rep placing bacon into my burrito with grease dripping off. Additionally, the female at the cash register didn't greet me and she failed to give my order to the 2 males cooking. I think its common courtesy in any food service industry to greet customers. I won't be coming back and would really like a refund for my meal!”
