There was no salsa verde, and the tostadas were hard and over-fried. It seems pointless to fry your own when you can buy better ones packaged. On a positive note, the pina beverage was delicious. I wouldn’t recommend stopping here unless every other place in town is fully booked. Also, there's no restroom available, and the salsa bar is just empty cold wells at the front.

While waiting in line, I caught a glimpse of the cook at her service window. I saw her serving beans into a small foam cup, but when she did so, some beans spilled down the side of the cup. Instead of using a napkin or a utensil, she ungloved her finger, scraped the beans off the side of the cup, and then plunged her finger directly into the pot of beans she was serving from. I could hardly believe my eyes. Not only was she using her bare hand, but she really dug her finger into the pot. The amount of beans she was trying to put back wasn’t worth the trouble. She could have easily cleaned it up with a napkin instead.

Be cautious with the flautas. I ordered a dozen to take home, but when I bit into one, it was mostly empty—just a tiny strand of meat inside.

I checked the rest, and they were all the same. I'm really disappointed. However, I did order the machaca burrito, which was delicious, and that part of my meal was satisfying.
