Restroom stinks. Literally 1 cook and 1 cashier trying to serve 20+ orders. Food was cold when we got it. Tables weren’t clean. Drinks were warm. Horrible experience. Expensive as well!

Love the food from another location by Costco. Quick story on this location. Drive up the bills is$16.11, hand the woman $21.11 expecting $5.00 change. “simple math”? She hands me the receipt, no change. I explain the situation and she closes the door for a few minutes. Opens window and hands me the receipt and two ones. Again explaining that she owes me $5.00, again simple math, she closes window. Several minutes go by and she hands me the order and $5.00. Easy? Yes! Come home to the spicyest food ever So spicy can’t be eaten!

Only 1 guy working the whole place on a Sunday. Poor guy. At least there was a drive-thru. I asked for no ice in my drink, I got lots of ice. The breakfast carne asada was bland. The tecate quesadilla was alright except it needed more cheese because the meat and tortilla kept separating. Guac had no flavor. The salsa were spicy so at least those were good.

Worst Mexican Food place I’ve ever tried! Over priced disgusting food! The carne asada fries were soggy and oily. The hard shell beef tacos were dripping a lot of oil as I bit into them. And the “Street tacos” were a disappointment. I would not recommend this place at all!!

This restaurant is one of the few that are open 24 hours. Very wide selection of Mexican food when you have the munchies at 3AM. My favorite so far is the Carne Asada Burrito which I highly recommend the first time you go there. There is also a great selection of salsa from which to pick from. Finally, they are very fast at making your order.

I ordered Carnita Tacos and they were delicious. 2 people in my group ordered Carne asada and they did not like it.

Welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere, along with a very clean establishment. Great customer service. Food will meet your expectations and there are various condiments to choose from. Both indoor/outdoor dine-in, as well as a drive-thru.

This is a great restaurant with great options for foods and very inexpensive. The cashier is always able to multitask with the great smile. I love coming here for lunch since it’s like 5 minutes away from my work. They were able to accommodate a group of about 11 during lunch hour. I will keep on coming back.
