Testimonials

On 1/31/2026 Gary Brazzale had this to say:
I rarely come on here to write reviews but the steak tacos from this place are INSANELY good. I was actually shocked how delicious they were considering the taco dinner is only about $10. Absolutely delicious.

On 1/23/2026 Jeff Cheek had this to say:
Food is always amazing. Workers are kind and well im going to be super honest.. 1 time they messed up my burrito the waitress was very apologetic even though the ticket was correct. The owner came over and comped my hole 4 person table and made it correctly and also gave us a Hugh drink. All in all 5 out of 5 stars if I had to vote.. Will continue to return

On 1/5/2026 Jose Mora had this to say:

On 12/27/2025 Anita P. had this to say:
Very quick service and very reasonable prices. I loved the array of salsas that came at each table. The tostada alone was a lot more filling than I expected and they accommodate for vegetarian modifications (usually a swap for avocado over protein option).

On 12/27/2025 Aaron M. had this to say:
Family went here before a show at paramount. Restaurant inside is nothing special but the food was awesome and prices were great. Definitely check this place out.
