The food was absolutely incredible. I especially loved my burrito. It was probably the most flavorful burrito, I have ever had. The carnitas was so delicious. The burritos are huge. We will be back here every time we are in the area. It just became our new spot to buy food when visiting my grandma. Highly recommend. They also have tons of different salsas... i think atleast 5 different kinds and cilantro sour cream. It was delicious.

I used to really like this place. The food is good, the service was decent, and one of the things that made them stand out was the little salsa cups. You could sample every salsa without wasting, and it felt thoughtful and eco-conscious. But lately they’ve gone backwards: • Self-serve salsas now come only in large plastic containers — more waste, less variety, and no effort to portion responsibly. • DoorDash orders don’t get salsas anymore, when they used to. • Staff no longer ask or bring them out — the service feels cut back. And the worst part? Double-bagging: a plastic bag inside a paper bag. The paper bag alone could hold the food, napkins, everything just fine. There’s no logical reason for it — it’s just extra waste to make it “look nice,” like you’re carrying out a special little

Have been coming here almost weekly for 4 years and it's always a highlight. One of the best. From the freshly made tortillas, to the always fresh Al Pastor, to Jorge's smiling face. Our favorite tacos and nachos in the County, and there's plenty of competition out there! The surf n turf nachos are killer and all the burritos are worthwhile, but I usually go back to the Pastor tacos. One of top 3 favorite spots of all time.

Just get the surf and turf burrito and be done with it. It’s a perfect burrito. Add a bottle of Coke and hit up that salsa bar, but be careful. If they say the hot sauce is hot, they mean it.

Everything so good. The tortillas are fresh made 10/10. Service great. Really recommend getting al pastor tacos and shrimp diabla. The fajita bowl was so good too. Really warm and cozy. Love this place!!!
