The food is delicious and made to order. We got Al pastor tacos, a carne asada gordita and chicken flautas. The customer service is exceptional, definitely coming back again.

The food was very good.
Service is HORRIBLE. We got it to go at like 6pm on a Saturday. There was only one table seated in the restaurant when I walked in to pickup. I scheduled pickup for 615. I walked in at like 620ish cause I went to the store next door to buy things. They didn’t hand me my food until 635. I told the lady I was there for pickup and she didn’t say anymore to me. No “they’re finishing up now.” Nothing for 15mins.
I do not like that, because why order online at all if you’re going to have to wait? I simply don’t understand that.
Anyway, I got the carne asada baleada. My husband got a carne asada torta, and they gave us carne asada tacos. And we got caldo de res to share. I only ended up eating one baleada because it was a lot.
The food was really good, but the fact that the service was just horrible, and they were absolutely dead on a Saturday night at 6pm says a lot. I did notice there was nothing but Hispanics eating inside. The one table seated was a Hispanic family. A group walked out when I arrived, all Hispanic. And another Hispanic family walked in while I waited, the staff all came out and hugged and greeted them. So that’s always a good sign, when I see a lot of Hispanics eating at Hispanic restaurants it normally means it’s because it’s more authentic. Like I said, the food was very good but I’m unsure about trying them again. If the service was that bad on a dead Saturday night, then I can’t even imagine what it’s like if more than 3 tables are seated in there. I cannot speak on the table service. But I do recommend stopping at the store for sure! They had so many snack I haven’t seen since I lived in Rosarito. So I got a few of course. And for now.. I recommend giving the restaurant a try if you’ve been wanting to. I already gave my heads up about the customer service, or lack there of ✌🏾
Update:
My husband really likes this place. So I ONLY go get HIM food here. I DO NOT buy myself food here. THE SERVICE IS HORRIBLE. I got here 20 mins late for my online order again. A man was sitting waiting for his food. He said the woman told him 5 mins, and he’d been waiting for 20 already. So I knew my food was about to take a long time again. Then when he asked where his food was, the lady just said “yes 5 mins.” It wasn’t that they didn’t understand him, I speak Spanish, they knew he just wanted to know how much longer for his food. But they didn’t even want to go and check if his food was done. 20 mins later?! 3 employees just sitting at a table in the empty restaurant, no one wants to help customers. Just close the restaurant if you don’t want to give good service. I had a pickup order for 635pm… I got to the restaurant at 645, and I left at 7pm. Thanks to that guy for complaining tho, I think that’s the only reason my food came out so fast.

If I could've left 0 Stars I would have... I don't know where to start. When me and my friend first got there I had to excuse myself and go to the bathroom. RIDICULOUS smell and not clean. Had to hurry out. Then, the food was very bland, and the DRINKS even worse. The server had little to no knowledge of the difference in the drinks. And the runners on the table were FILTHY. I should have taken a picture. Overall, horrible experience. Won't be back.

Best Mexican food in the area...
Had a great meal here. Welcoming atmosphere with a front attendant greeting you. Our server was nice and approached the table at reasonable times to check in with us. However, the menus were sticky though. Process to pay was easy. The music wasn’t too loud or quiet, judt perfect! Went on a friday night, wasn’t too busy and food came out all together in about 15-20 minutes.
This place is great overall. Only minor issue is a lack of descriptions on the dessert menu items. For example, the Mangonada is cut up mango, ice cream and some salty-spicy red addition. I'm not keen to the salty spice part. Now that I am aware of it, I'll request that it is not on my next order.
For non-dessert items, I've had the steak fries and Mexican burger. Both of which I recommend
Moved from San Diego to Newport News and found this little bit of Mexico. Food reminded us of home, street tacos were outstanding, guacamole priced high but I understand that, the guacamole was made there and fresh. Service was great! we've been back a couple of times and have not been disappointed.
Great food, and the servers are very kind and nice.
