1 star is far too high of a rating. "Hated it" is way too kind. The experience was HORRENDOUS. When I entered the place was dark and, after sitting, noticed it smelled as if Raid had been sprayed in the premises. There was nothing special about the decor. There were four workers, including thr manager standing around the counter. One worker was sweeping the floor and the pile of dirt was in the middle of the floor. She made no attempt to remove the dirt...it stayed there for about 3 minutes. The manager was leaning on the counter in conversation with someone who had an issue with an order involving Uber. The other two workers were simply milling around. No one spoke, smiled...nothing done to make me feel as though my business was wanted. Finally, one worker ushered me to a table. The interesting thing was NONE of the workers, except the manager, spoke English. In retrospect, it was a Mexican restaurant, and I do speak a little bit of Spanish, but still, not all of their patrons are Spanish speaking. At any rate, I took my seat and ordered my food, along with a side of guacamole. Food comes out...the only thing that was hot was the plate. The rice was cold, the refried beans were lukewarm, and the enchiladas were warm. The side of guacamole was liquid...literally L.I.Q.U.I.D. I took the item to the register...again, no one smiled or spoke, but asked the person who brought my food where was my side of guac. She said that the liquid I was holding in my hand WAS my guac. She then took the item from my hand, stuck her finger in it to taste it, affirmed it was guac...and handed it back to me. Ok. I was D.O.N.E. For a brief moment, I started to walk out without paying, but, for some reason, I paid for the food. It was $10. I could ha e walked across the parking lot to McDonalds and received a better, HOT meal, and customer service. My advice...visit the McDonalds or Subway...youll get a lot more bang for your buck, wont have to stand around looking at dirt, and more than likely, actually enjoy your experience.

Bueno primeramente quiero recomendarles este restaurante porque comes como en la comodidad de tu hogar, Segundo yo he comido varios platos: Tacos de carne, de pollo, Burrito, plato de pollo, arroz y ensalada fresca, Pupusas y dejenme decirle que es una delicia de comida empsando por esas rucas pupusas totalmente rellenas hasta sus orilla se siente la comida. Los Tacos los pedi que me mix con pollo y carne y que ricos quedaron un sabor rico en la carne con su cebolla a la plancha wooo simplemente rico. El Burrito totalmente lleno de comida, no como en otros lados que lo llenan mas de arroz, pero este del mexireño es totalmente diferente rico. Bueno termino diciendole que si usted estaba buscando un restaurante diferente este es el lugar para que disfrute de excelente comida a la comodidad de su casa. Tambien el dueño del restaurante es bien amigable, cordial, y atento con cada unos de sus cliente. Vicitelo no se arrepentira un restaurante con comida deliciosa Gracias y que Dios bendiga mas ese restaurante.

My boyfriend and I came here on a rainy weeknight craving some California Burritos (we just visited LA a few months ago and were dying for some Carne Asada). We had read some reviews about how great the California Burritos were and to order the "special chili oil." So we did just that, with special warning about the chili oil and how it has landed people in the hospital before! The burritos were huge and you could pay extra to get them smothered in cheese, and we were cautious with the chili oil at first but then realized our California-tinged palates were used to much hotter and we basically dunked our burritos in it. The burrito themselves didnt really compare to our other worldy experience at Rambos Food Truck in Highland Park, but they were fine in and of themselves! They had both chicken and steak, rice and beans, and french fries which my boyfriend was surprised to find haha. Unfortunately it was a little light on the meat even though it had two kinds in it, and next time we go well probably order the regular burrito with hopefully a lot of just one type of meat. There was also a nice little nacho-type appetizer with this delicious bean dip and 2 kinds of salsa, the green was spicier than the chili oil! And I ordered a patron Margarita which had a spicy salt rim I thought was a nice touch, but it tasted kind of watered down. Still, Id come back another time to try out other things on the menu!

Jejeje fuy a buscar trabajo y una india manager que estaba ay solo me miró de arriba a abajo,y claro como estoy mucho mejor que ella me dijo que no estaba nesesitando personal , le dije que ablaba inglés y español y que e trabajado de cajera , conosco al dueño y si no me equivoco esa tipa es la amante de el , lastima de basura de vieja porque alguien me dijo que estaban contratando personal bilingue pero que la manager era una mierda. Y se quedaron cortos. Tan lindo restaurante lo echó a perder el señor con esa estupida. Y pongo esto en español para que la india lo lea porque no abla inglés estaban unos clientes americanos y no les entendía lo que decían. Suerte señor jesus la va a nesesitar.

I would not even give this place a one star, but its the only way i could get the review posted, so all can know what a rip off this place is. The guy who owns the place likes to change up your order. I ordered a side of grilled shrimp, along with everyones orders from my work crew of hen soup. I say I want a SIDE order of grilled shrimp, the jumbo ones. He says ok then asks something, i didnt understand, so i say i just want the good ones. I got some wierd sauced shrimp dinner, expensive, but nasty, and it even smelled rotten. Now most places when they mess up, they either fix it for free, or take the messed up portion off the order, right? Well not here. The response you get here for his mistake, is that its already made he can not refund it, no fixing of his mistake what so ever. Just a response of he will make it right next time while charging you for his mistakes. Im not even sure if he isnt doing this on purpose, because the time before when we came here, he did the same thing before 5 months ago. It makes you wonder how many people he does this to to make extra money.... I told him I would put my review up, he had nothing to say, im not someone who usually complains, but hes wrong. And we will never come there again. The hen soup, the hens where dried out badly as well. Definitely was not worth our 90.00 dollars today. Never again

Worst Mexican restaurant experience ever! I feel Ive been duped for trusting the previous Yelp reviews. I have no idea how this place could possibly have ever gotten 4 1/2 stars! Not only was the food bad the service was awful. Our waiter never introduced himself, knew nothing about the foods on the menu nor the drinks. He didnt bring us water and didnt bring silverware until we asked for it. Although it was a Mexican restaurant they were out of guacamole, but they did have sliced avocado so go figure. I guess they mustve been a couple of other items short to make guacamole with it. We were told they were out of salad. When we asked for refried beans with our meal they brought black beans instead. That mistake was corrected. At a table with three, none of us could barely eat any of our food. Although the french fries were good, it was not enough to give them a good review the rest of the food was not.
