We tried their half rack ribs and a quarter of chicken, for sides, we got rice and plantains, and for drinks, horchata and mexican coke. They’re all so good!!! The ribs were falling off the bones and have such unique sauce which we liked. The rice was a perfect pair for the meats and the plantains tasted fresh and not refried. We’d come back for sure.

Great chicken and sides, and a little less heavy than it's competitors. Never had a bad meal!

Waiting for food for 30 minutes. They brought ice cream and churro before all other ordered food. Service is just bad even though the manager tried to fix it. ?Food is ok, but we won't come again.

Cemitas are always A-1. One of the best sandwiches I've had and highly consistent too. Couldn't recommended more.

Steak tacos had no flavor, dry and cold. Man at the counter did not greet me, zero personality and he was just as cold as the tasteless tacos. Will not be returning to this spot. The other store up near Wegmans is much better.

Me and my daughter eat here often. Yet last night something was so wrong. Cashier was very polite. Chicken was so blackened I couldn’t eat it. Spoke with one of the staff Aldo after sending him a pic of the chicken. He decided to reimburse me just for the chicken. I was unaware of that until today. I called back spoke with Aldo stated he would give my name and number to the manger. He had no idea when that would be. That’s what he told me. I even agreed to send him pics of the sides which I did not eat. Later today my daughter text to say the full amount was pending on her debit card. Wow!!! So unprofessional. Management should have at least called me to apology for the inconvenience and awful chicken my daughter was given. They acting like they did me a favor by returning the money. That’s the least they could have done. They only gave me what I spent nothing more. I will not be returning. Look at the chicken and you decide.

The service, environment, and FOOD were all excellent. The birria tacos were very tasty and filling for lunch. That with the chips (with guacamole) were incredibly satisfying. Worth your time!
