- MCMichael J. CastineNov 11, 20255.0The best OG breakfast burrito in the neighborhood. S/O to Magdalena and the rest of the women cooking in here. Crunchy potatoes that were greasy as all get out, soft scrambled eggs, the chorizo was meaty, and the diced onions and sour cream was FREE. Mexican women can cook let me tell you all something. WOULD EAT HERE AGAIN. Oh, and it's cheap. Big Burrito too. Toppings are usually free(including sour cream) they charge you by the protein.
- JIJohn Taylor IIINov 10, 20254.0The chorizo taco had a lot of flavor and was filling. Had it american way. Fresh made.chips and queso was a treat!
- ETEleise TaylorNov 7, 20251.0Got sick an hour after eating nausea and had to go to the bathroom ugh.
- DLDenara LanelyNov 1, 20251.0Food was great but seen a employee name tag stated Evangel picking up food with the same gloves he prepared a customer food with reach into the food like & eat it while customers were inside. That was the most disgusting thing i have ever seen. This is not my first time witnessing employees from this location do unsanitary things with their gloves, and the food line. Please fix the issue.
- SLSun LeeOct 28, 20255.0So good use the app as their reward system is tops. The ladies there do such a good job of keeping the food fresh, dining area clean and having a great breakfast option
