Nice counter person but they had an old price list on the web. It was a sticker shock, wish they change it so others aren’t caught by surprise. Otherwise, good food.

The fact I usually order and some days it’s good and some days are bad like today is disappointing. I order chicken empanada no cheese. I received a cheese empanada. Went back and the gave a soggy oil filled chicken empanada with barley any chicken and some pieces weren’t thoroughly cooked with little sauce. All they can say was Sorry… the lettuce was old.. I’m very disappointed this makes me not want to go anymore. I’ve given them enough money and patience. This is sad.

Tried this place for the first time! Super happy with the quality and portions. My fiancé is picky about Mexican food and also gave it his seal of approval. Veggie nachos were great. We both got combos. I ate my enchiladas there and brought my chimichanga home to enjoy another day. He got enchiladas and a steak burrito. The food was authentic and service was fabulous.

Dined in and it is even better. I almost feel bad for people who go to chipotle now. Price is better, quality and taste are better. Just give these guys a shot
