I want to get a breakfast burrito, but I guess they don’t have them anymore. Other than that, the burritos are delicious.

Came here to get a quick lunch with my husband. Had to use the bathroom but staff (lady wearing pink polo shirt) was really rude and gave me dirty looks for gently knocking in the bathroom- there was no one answering and I am 9months pregnant. She told me that I should have used the men's bathroom. I am appalled by the attitude. Not coming back to this location again.

Review written 09/16/2025. Very fresh flavorful food, very quick efficient and friendly staff
Tip: make sure u specify if you want the small side of chips and queso ($1) versus the large ($5.55)
I asked for the small, and got charged for the large, but thankfully my rewards took it off for free
