“ I enjoyed the food for sure. They bought out chips and 3 types of salsa. They were all good. I ordered a taco dinner. Two steak and 1 chorizo. Plate come with rice and beans also. Very good. I saw many options on their menu so I'm sure you can find a meal that will work for you. ”
“ This is my first time back after 7 or so years and it's still absolutely delicious. We got the steak burrito and the pork torta. Everything was as good I as I remember. ”
“ Food is exactly what you expect at a great value and executed at a 95% rate - its in the name (on the side of the building closest to the L) - Great Mexican food! Also has a tremendous vegetarian burrito ”
“ Food and service was great. Vegetarian Burrito was a solid 9/10. Hit the spot for late night cravings. The beans and rice were fresh and not too oily. The tomatoes and lettuce were crisp and fresh. Salsa platter was very authentic. Chips were crispy and not too oily. The front cashier was friendly and asked if I wanted everything on my vegetarian burrito. They honored my request to remove the cheese and sour cream to make it a plant-based vegan burrito. I cannot confirm if the beans were made with lard of the rice was make with chicken bullion though, for true vegans. Although it did not taste like it had lard in the beans. The general restaurant was clean, although the bathroom could use a little freshening up. Overall a great experience I highly recommend this authentic Mexican food that has healthy vegan burrito option. Burrito would have been 10/10 if they added a couple mushrooms in there. I’d pay another 2 for this add-on. ”
“ Best place to get your food. The people there are great and it's a really nice and good spot to eat after work or after school. They're very friendly and they serve food fast, recommend 100%. They remember your order and I usually get burrito de asada, and they always remember to put everything and remember my order love it! They always put effort and food is great texture, everything about it is perfect. After school, i always go there and they are nice people and recommend this place 100%. Thank you very much, I love this place. ”
