This is such a lovely breakfast, lunch or dinner choice. Everyone working there is incredibly kind and efficient and all of the food I have had has always been delicious. They have daily specials with my favorites being Tuesday’s (taco tuesday) and Wednesday’s (enchiladas verdes). Parking for dine in is hard sometimes, with their shared lot, but street parking is an option too. I highly recommend this place if you want some yummy food!

Very friendly staff. Food was okay. I had the carne asada nachos (generous portion). Meat was diced into pieces smaller than I’ve had it served at other Mexican “taco shops”. People I was with had the daily special and felt it was a good value.

Look, I just wandered in here for a measly little breakfast burrito. Little did I know I had stumbled upon the best restaurant in all of California. The food, absolutely scrumptious. The service, of the gods. This place is just chefs kiss.

This is some of the most mediocre Mexican food that I’ve had in the area. It’s been several years since the last time I visited, at which point I thought it was pretty good. So I brought someone about 45 minutes before they close so that we could both eat dinner. Here. The food was pretty gross and I can’t see a reason why I would return. I had the California burrito. Not sure how that goes so poorly and a flautas. The flautas were poor quality and extremely dry and flavorless. I couldn’t finish it it was so bad and it wasn’t that cheap. My friend also had a dish they weren’t impressed with and we left there feeling disappointed. We got the sense. They weren’t pleased that we were there so close to their closing. Although we left after only about 20 minutes so there was still roughly a half hour before they were even supposed to close. So maybe that was the reason for the poor food. Maybe they were taking their frustration out on our meal? I don’t know either way. Can’t see a reason to go back.
