4.4 / 5 (798 reviews)

Description

A welcoming, no‑frills eatery offering a broad menu of Mexican‑inspired tacos, burritos, burgers and hearty breakfasts. Sauces are the standout—bright and spicy—while meats can be overcooked or underseasoned and ice cream quality and condiment portions are inconsistent. Service is warm and accommodating, prices are reasonable ($10–$20), and the simple, occasionally quiet atmosphere makes it a convenient, budget‑friendly stop for travelers and locals alike.

I enjoyed a delightful breakfast experience at this restaurant. The food was exceptional, earning a perfect score of 5. The service was very good as well, rating a solid 4. The atmosphere was inviting and charming, also deserving of a 5. With prices ranging from $10 to $20 per person, it offers great value for the quality of the meal. Highly recommended!

I was really sad we couldn't dine in. When we went inside the interior felt really fun and welcoming. My partner ordered some tacos which were good and then he added the lime provided with them and said they were even better. I ordered a burger and fries. Legitimate fries and the burger was cooked perfectly. No pink and no burning on it. I wasn't fond of lettuce but I'm generally picky with lettuce on anything. I ate the whole burger which isn't common for me. I couldn't finish the fries because I got full. I really hope to go back and be able to dine in next time.

Food was ok. The grilled chicken burrito did not look as good as thier picture. It tasted a bit plan. It need more seasoning or more sauce. My friend was disappointed with his meat plate. Over cooked and under seasoned. On a good note the Cook did offer to make him something else.
