I could honestly say that the beef and bean tostada could be my last meal, and I’d skip towards my inevitable doom with joy in each step. In all seriousness, the staff is amazing. Your refills come so quickly you’d think your drinks magically appear. The food? I can’t think of any word besides exquisite. You can hear the kitchen’s hustle and bustle, the sound of your food being made and quickly served with flawless efficiency. If you don’t trust my review, that’s totally fine. Try it yourself, and you’ll see exactly how honest I’m being. Perfect food, perfect atmosphere, and perfect staff makes a deadly combo. By far the BEST food place in Santee. Honestly, maybe even all of San Diego. Also don’t go to the Alpine one. This place makes that one look like a joke.

I had the Pollo Ranchero and it was very flavorful with chicken breast tomatoes, peppers, and onion in a tomato sauce with rice, beans, and tortillas. I'm a fan.
