I've noticed some negative reviews here that seem suspicious, possibly influenced by a nearby competitor. As one of the pickiest people around--often called 'mean' or 'too critical'--I was genuinely impressed with this place. The food was fresh, tasted great, and was exactly what you'd hope for when you're trying a new restaurant. The El Pastor was a solid 10/10, and the salsa was perfect! If you're into Mexican food, definitely give this spot a try. As for the reviews claiming the food was bland--those seem especially questionable. There wasn't a single item I ordered that could be described as bland. Spicy pork with juicy pieces of pineapple, topped with fresh salsa, onions, cilantro, and wrapped in fresh tortillas... if that's bland to you, it might be time to get your taste buds checked out to make sure you still have any or stop smoking cigarettes.
Amy was so nice to me she really took care of me. I don't know what these reviews are saying but these burritos are massive and are the best I've ever had. Best customer service and best Mexican place.
I came here with my siblings at around 11pm. There were only two workers and they seemed to be busy with the multiple orders being placed. I ordered the nacho supreme which definitely hit the spot after a long night out. The servings/portions of food were very generous for the price, but there was nothing too special in terms of flavor. Would recommend this place to anyone who is craving Mexican food, but be aware that the service may be slow due to there only being two workers.
Went here late after a concert with my brothers. They got a burrito - one with birria and one California burrito with Al pastor. I split nachos supreme with carne asada. My brothers inhaled their burritos. I tried them and they were good. We waited maybe 15-20 mins for our order because they had a lot of call in orders and we ordered right when we got there on the kiosk. We watched them prepare our order - only two workers and they were really busy preparing food nonstop. They fried their own tortilla chips and loaded the nachos generously. The nachos were very tasty and plentiful to share. The burritos were also huge and stuffed. I liked how they grilled the meat and cheese on the grill and the burrito at the end to add a nice crunchy texture.
