Can't say much other than the breakfast burritos don't come with cheese and there's no obvious way to know that or to add it. You can opt to "smother" your burrito in a combo of chili and cheese, or have that combo inside the burrito, but you cannot add just cheese without typing in special instructions. If you do, it's still a $1 per burrito for cheese even though you're forgoing the chili. Breakfast burritos should probably come standard with cheese. That's my hot take. Egg, potato, and meat burritos were underwhelming.
Food is good! The hot chili- is definitely hot. The customer service is not great, most of the time the front staff can be rude and snappy. Please watch out because they over charge you for stuff you didn't order. You don't realize until you get home. So double check! Has happened twice!
Food quality improved and is consistent. Service has improved. Check order prior to leaving missing items from order on multiple visits. Red tamales are mostly corn flour, taste is okay. Green chile is good and improves flavor of items it is smothered on. Smothered beef and bean burrito is good.
