I swear the juices inside the chicken burrito have healing powers. So good! There is nothing like authentic Mexican food in California–never watered down for the commercial palate.

This place used to have great food and prices. Now they overcharge and the food is low quality. $21 for nachos and a burrito. The meat was rubbery and tasted low quality. Burrito was wet like they didn’t drain the ingredients. Ended up getting the runs from the nachos. I’d rather eat from Taco Bell next door and that’s saying something. Hope they can improve their food quality.

Inside is like a old-fashioned cafeteria. Drive through fast hot and very accommodating. I do wish they made their own chips.

The no meat burrito is super filling and very well seasoned. It has tomato in it, which I love. It’s kind of hard to find a vegetarian burrito with fresh tomatoes. The drive through is also super fast. I’m very happy with my lunch today.

The only place I know that makes a huge regular burrito very good! The regular is the size of a king burrito that you get from a restaurant!

This the 4th time I ordered food for my family and my husband and kids . They didn’t want to at first to buy food here. The beef burrito was like eating mostly rice, the quasadia don’t have a lot of the red tomato thing inside which makes the quasidi delicious, the nacho I will definitely not order that again hardy any meat. I used to buy food there every other week for my family buy now I’m going to find another place that has tastier food. No need to be stingy with the meat and red sauce. Great tasting food is what brings in customers.

It was just the drive thru but accurate order, freshly made food and Soo delicious… I hadn’t been there in years but now it’ll be a regular spot for me and my family… All my 4 children have families of their own and they are the ones that brought me back …
