Decent spot. Location was once probably a great spot has become a so-so area. Easily missed, several crazies in the area and nestled in with tones of nearby auto last stores, and random strip mall, the locations seem like they have had better days. The food was great and a bigger than expected portion size. Price was a little higher than other similar type locations but the size makes that ok. Staff was super nice and accommodating. Normally I would give this experience 3* out of 5 but the staff was great giving it a nice bump.
Great food the best around, the salsa is actually spicy too the red one. The one thing to point out is that the deive thru can make mistakes or miss things from the order there has been at least 4 times this has happened before but its all good as long as you check the order before. … More
I've eaten here twice because a friend in SD recommended to me. Two awful experience, first food was dry and old not pleasant not eatable. Second one I order carne asada fries and burrito to go and everything on the side because I was going to drive 2 hours and didn't wanted to get al soggy. When I get home I didn't had anything!! Just a "burrito" Tortilla and beef, nothing else for that. And the fries were only fries and beef and cheese on the side. Nothing else!
