This Collegetown eatery impresses with its generous portions, flavorful burritos, nachos, and quesadillas, offering excellent variety in meats and toppings at affordable prices. Many appreciate the quality and value amid rising local food costs, alongside friendly staff. However, inconsistent and unpredictable operating hours frustrate customers, with unexpected closures even during posted open times. Service can occasionally be slow but usually only takes a few minutes. While most praise the fresh, tasty offerings, some have criticized occasional stale or cold food. Overall, it remains a popular spot worth trying, especially for those seeking hearty, well-priced meals near campus.

Very good, reasonable prices, nice atmosphere, conscientious waitstaff.

Everything I get from here is always so good. Lots of great toppings and sauces. Amazing burritos, nachos, and quesadillas and very convenient location on campus!

I love the food, but I just walked all the way to Collegetown to find the OPEN sign lit, but a note on the door saying they will reopen at 4pm. I would definitely advise calling ahead since they don't keep the hours they claim to!!

The food at this restaurant is amazing, but their hours of operation are quite unreliable. Even though they list their closing time as being between 3 PM and 5 PM daily, I have tried visiting or calling during those times (typically around 2 PM or 6 PM) only to discover that they were closed or didn't pick up the phone. This lack of consistency can be really frustrating.

I'm not sure why this restaurant was closed for a while, but I'm glad it's reopened because I decided to give it a try. With food prices going up throughout the college town, the quality and portion sizes here are definitely worth the price. While the service can be a bit slow at times, it usually only takes a few minutes. The variety of meats and other ingredients is impressive too. I highly recommend checking it out if you haven't already!
