The rice in the burrito was soggy, the beans were flavorless, and it overshadowed the decent taste of the beef. Considering the quality, I found it to be overpriced. I recommend heading across the street to La Unica instead; you'll be glad you chose that option.

While the tacos are decent, I personally prefer the new Mexican restaurant across the street. However, if you're looking for a quick lunch, their nachos are truly outstanding. Plus, you can grab just about any drink you want from their impressive cooler selection.

Some reviews claim it's overpriced, but I find that it offers larger portions for a lower price, and the quality of the food is far superior. I truly love it!

Chicken quesadilla is very good, with peppers and mushrooms stuffed inside. Not bad for less than $4. Bean burrito was about the same price, full of grated cheese and whole pinto beans, not refried. Some of the cheese on the ends wasn't melted. It tasted okay dipped in their hot salsa, but all of the whole beans bothered me some, texturally. I tried eating inside once, but tables weren't all cleaned. I prefer the drive-thru. It's not a bad option if you live in the area. 3.5 stars.

I don't usually go for the larger items (burrito or salad) as 6$ is a little too much to spend on a lunch but the sweet pork quesadilla is surely a guilty pleasure if there ever was one! If you buy the combo (75¢ extra) it comes with two sides and a little drink, which I highly recommend because their rice, chips, and salsa are all fantastic! The only other review states how expensive this place is but I'm very inclined to disagree, I think the price is very fair for the quality of food you get. It's certainly not a place to eat at but is great for takeout!
