Holy cow. The portions are HUGE and everything is so good. Probably the best fajitas ever. My husband had a carne asada burrito and my son a carne asada chimichanga. We will definitely make the drive to eat here again.

Left a review here over 2 years ago but came back to edit. This place is STILL Phenomenal. The chorizo is so good and so are the chilaquiles! I've never had a bad thing from here. The staff is friendly. The food service is quick and there is almost no wait. Large portions and a very comfortable and welcoming environment. Definitely some of the best food around!! Will be back whenever I am in the area!

This place continues to outdo itself in quality service and hospitality. My Pollo Mexicano [#12] was fantabulous and enriching. Spend your money local and support these truly awesome people.

Lately, they been showing up in their food truck and the pork burritos were great and plentiful. It’s been a long time eating this good of pork, especially in a burrito. We also had the beef burrito and it was shredded, not grounded. Good size of shredded beef chucks in the burrito. There was also some good side dishes but the burrito by itself was enough

Love there menudo and I ask for dessert and they told me they didn’t have any and when we were finishing up eating, the guy comes up and he’s all like we made this especially for you. That was very sweet of them

Chorizo egg and cheese taco is delicious. They made us fresh homemade chips and tortillas fresh as well. Salsa and green sauce excellent.
