I’m a fan of build your own type of restaurants so glad a new taco spot opened up in Pasadena. Since this was a post workout meal I opted to get the bowl-rito to-go. Just like other build your own fast casual spots you pick what type of meal you want. They have a variety of things from taco plates all the way to a 9″ “small burrito” if you aren’t that hangry. There is wide selection of proteins to suit any taste and dietary needs. What’s unique is that they have some signature styles to top off your meal or you can choose your own toppings you want. If you don’t want to hassle with building your own meal then you can choose from a list of featured selections under “more good stuff”. Your able to upgrade your meal to add chips, salsa, and a drink or order those items a la carte. Breakfast is served all day here and they have a kids menu. Sometimes you need a sweet ending to a great meal and here they offer churro bites with carmel dip.

This new taco spot has authentic tacos in a fast-casual atmosphere. I ordered the Taco Plate which came with two tacos plus rice and beans and it was delicious! The tacos were spot on akin to a street taco stand. All the staff were polite and there is a free parking structure next to the restaurant.

I’ll udpate the review if I have a positive experience. The food is great, but sometimes the service is like these kids are on percs. There are some great employees, often the ones who seem like they may be managers, but the younger staff act like they are working through molasses. My most recent experience, it took 25 minutes to NOT get a burrito. The dude messed up the burrito so much that he had to restart and by then i had to cut. A couple of the employees I’ve interacted with are nice enough, but they act like making a burrito is defusing a bomb and they’ve never been to bomb defusal school
