I was a huge fan of the loaded fries, Nachos and Wet Burrito. This place is a great quick stop for some delicious Mexican food. Small indoor are for seating and in the summer they have patio seating. I haven't had a bad meal yet. Make this stop next time you're in town.

Best budget taco joint in the area. 2 tacos on Tuesday is a must. They also have virtual ramen on the menu!

I think that the bad reviews are not true. I always come here for birria tacos and they are delicious so juicy and flavorful. I like the rice and beans too. And the prices are pretty good for this area. The meat always tastes fresh. I would say that getting it fresh in the restaurant is probably better than ordering it online!

Amazing beans rice and tacos!! Owner goes above and beyond. We were ordering late and he stayed open for us. Skip taco bell and come here. It’s well worth it!!!!!

Holy s##t this place rocks. I just had 3 steak tacos for 6 on taco Tuesday. Taco bell's garbage tacos are the same price. These things had a ton of meat and amazing salsa. Will be returning for sure...
