Food is fine when warm. Customer service is average at best. Was much better when the restaurant was open and not just a drive through.

Drive up carry out only. I like to take the food cold and heat it up at home rather than eat out or of styrofoam boxes. It’s my favorite!

Talk about a meal!!! Huge homemade chicken strips, wedges, salad and a roll all for $8.99. Delicious food at an amazing price! Furthermore, the owners are the most compassionate people I have met in a long time, proud to know them.

This was my first job back in 1997. And I have loved the place ever since. In fact, I still think it’s the best Mexican food and I’ll drive all the way from Omaha for it. I generally get the combo burrito with gravy and “fiesta style”. But really, you can’t go wrong with any of their Mexican dishes. There is a self-serve salsa bar in the middle of the restaurant so you can add as much or as little spiciness as you would like. They offer kid-friendly meals like chicken strips.

Excellent food, great service and friendly helpful staff. There is a chips and fixings station. Lots of menu items with inexpensive pricing. Homemade icecream as well. There’s salads and American sandwiches and dinners in addition the Mexican items and dinners.

Food is ok, nothing spectacular. What they make and serve could be bought and made cheaper and better at home. They have absolutely zero heat on and we’re in the beginning of January. Asked the cashier if she could possibly turn the heat up, I was not the only person commenting on the lack of heat, and got a snotty reply.
