Would give negative stars if I could. My best friend and I frequent here as we live down the street. We decided to come in this morning around 10am for their special Friday deal which is 8 beef rolled tacos for $10. We are regular customers so this is a deal we have come in for before, but this time I wanted to inquire about if I could have some of them with chicken instead. The cashier was already very hostille and rude off the bat. Instead of letting me know that the special had to be all beef, she looks at my friend and I and says "No, thats why its the special" in an extremely condescending tone. You would think if a place wanted to promote some kind of special, they would be nice to the customers asking about it. Secondly, my friend and I had walked to the establishment so I asked for

If I could give this negative stars I absolutely would. My friend and I went in to grab their Friday 10$ rolled taco special, I simply asked if they were also made in chicken and the lady that works there regularly was rude and impolite the rest of our time there. I go here regularly, it’s always the same people there I mean it’s literally a street away from my house. We got guacamole on the side and she gave us a tiny container with guac for 2 sets of rolled tacos?? Barely any toppings, she gave us dirty napkins and when we got home to eat, there was hair inside the cheese. So I called her and let her know, no apologies or anything she just said “that’s weird” and tried to say I was lying because she checked the tacos before they were given to us. Right so why is there a pube in my tacos?

I would’ve wrote a good review, but unfortunately I won’t be doing that now. I’ll be in from here multiple times and I decided to get pizza across the street and ask for some hot sauce, but they refuse to let me get some and said that I had to buy food in order for me to get hot sauce. I do understand this, but my issue is that they know I am a frequent customer so I didn’t think that this was a problem, but it was for them and for them it was a loss for me to just get hot sauce that probably would’ve gotten bad at the end of the day and they would’ve had to switched it out anyways this is not what you did to loyal customers bad business I also ordered a California burrito from here and the meat was cold when I got it and he had just made it so I don’t know how that was possible, but it h

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 James King · Jan 2025

Very disappointed this place used to be so good and now it’s just bad Ordered a taco expecting I was going to get with the photo look like and this is what I got from one to ten I gave it a negative one taco was dry and sour couldn’t make another review, but here is for the same review I ordered TJ con Asada tacos. This is what I got. Looks like burnt food and a spoon of guacamole. Do not go here. Save your money and save yourself some time. do not eat here grade for this place negative F for disgusting

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Anthony White · Dec 2025

This restaurant has decided that basic human decency is optional. Unless you’re a “patron,” they refuse to let you use the restroom. Not only is this petty, it shows a complete lack of respect for the community they operate in. Access to a restroom is a fundamental courtesy every responsible business should provide. Denying someone the ability to use a restroom—especially when they’re already inside the establishment or considering spending money—is embarrassing behavior for any business. It communicates one thing very clearly: they value control more than customer service. If a restaurant can’t offer the simplest act of hospitality, why trust them with anything more complex, like food safety or cleanliness? Their priorities are completely backwards. There are plenty of places in this c
