Dont get me wrong, the food is good but service was horrible. Since the little 10 year old started working the front counter I cant stand this place. The attitude is unbelievable. First off, I Called to ask about catering service and she put me on hold for a good 10 mins just to find out how long I need to place an order in advance...wtf.? Then I place an order in the same phone call and after giving my order she said "OK bye"...wait, what? How about a total, or how long will it be? I then get the response "itll be a good fiteen minutes".. mmkay. Ill give it 20.. I arrive 28 minutes later, to her stank face attitude and I before even speaking why Im here, I get "its not ready yet"....you said 15 mins.. I gave you an extra 15 mins longer and its not ready?? I mean this place was empty, not like you were busy out the ying yang or something. Then I have to ask her to find out how much longer it would be because she is just not providing me any type of empathy for her mistakes or bad attitude. She says it will be another 5 mins. I wait for 10, and get my food. Replace the front counter girl or loose your customers because the food is not worth the service and the price!!

By far the best Mexican restaurant Ive been to. Food is great and service is awesome! Was a little weird when I notice one of the employees kids were running around. Had the barbacoa burrito and molcajete so far and both are delicious but I wish the white out or put tape of the shrimp part of ingredients for the molcajete, so I dont expect shrimp. Over al great place.

Very flavorful food. I have not been here but I have ordered out and have not been disappointed. Torta de milanesa, tacos de pollo, asada, and al pastor are delish! I dont know what they do to their bread or tortillas they just seem softer than other places. Oh and their chips and guacamole are really good! Maybe next time Ill stop in with my family.

It has great food. The service is rough though. Came in once and the waitress waited to sweep the floor before asking is what drinks we wanted. I regularly ordered their street corn, and I get it about 2 minutes before we are done eating. They would make double the money if their staff checked on tables or sped up the service.

The service was great! The chips and salsa was fabulous! The asada tacos were really really good as was the bistec a la mexicana. The rice and beans taste homemade! The only bad thing was the guacamole. I love guacamole and this was really bad! I wont stop me from going back though!

Al pastor is excellent here whether it be in a taco, gordita, salad, etc. Also the best steak tacos and quesadillas for miles. Never been disappointed! Dont be put off by older reviews- this place keeps getting better with both the food and service. Give them a try.

Some of the best mexican food around! Get the chicken it is above any other place when it comes to their chicken. The people are so nice and I always feel like Im at homega enjoying a meal with my family. Dont see why the reviews are not all 5 or 4 stars.

Was good when opened. Burritos have barely any meat now. If you like a lettuce and bean burrito then this is the place for you, otherwise go elsewhere to get a burrito. Maybe request to have a burrito full of meat and they might add some.

My personal favorite! We love everything weve had from here. Family friendly. Yes, the staff have their kids here, it just adds to the homey atmosphere. Authentic, delicious, affordable. Stop reading and go!

These people take off negative remarks, NOT THE SAME OWNERS, prices went up, dont honor senior citizens like before, I use to enjoy coming here, they cut back on portions of food.

Go. Go. Go. Order everything. Be gluttonous. Every item is worth it. Staff are kind, attentive & genuinely care that you are pleased with the food they are serving you.

Dont believe hours. Tried to go 3 times and only got to eat once. Closed 2 hours before time posted. Food good when able to get it, but over ruled by availability.

Fantastic salsa. The green was deliciously tangy. The Orange a bit sweet with an amazing heat that comes on after the flavor.

I have had their food quite often and it is delicious. My only complaint is their tacos are too small for what u pay for.
