The food is good BUT, they start making your order after you get there. I ordered for pickup a couple of times and after waiting the usual 20-25 minutes, we got there and realized only then they started to make the order. It’s no problem if they’re busy but there was only one other customer already eating his food. There’s no good reason why the food can’t be ready on time…

Tacos are superb here. Good horchata. However slightly disappointed in the chilaquiles, I guess not too my personal taste-I got the rojos and something about the salsa just didn’t hit the spot like it does in other restaurants. It was very dark and thick, almost as if made on tomato paste? Not sure. I ate most of them, because they’re „okay” for a breakfast, but i can’t sat I walked away in amazement. As far as service, a little slow/not as attentive as one would usually expect. Waited a while to order/pay.

Food is absolutely amazing but the wait time is terrible and this happens every time I call for pickups. They say 15-20 minutes, but I always wait for 30-50 minutes. Please just say it’ll take that long on the phone instead of having customers wait around. Again, food quality and taste is very good!
