Authentic Mexican food, flavor was pretty good. First time visiting. Plenty of items on the menu to choose from. Service with a smile and the atmosphere was good. Left with a full feeling, the portions were also good.
All I have to say is this place should put Taco Bell and Taco John’s out of business!!! Huge menu and you can sit inside or use the drive up window!!!! This isn’t fast food it’s high quality feasting! Walk in order your food, menus right in front. Help yourself to chips and 6 different salsas! Wait time was about 10 minutes and the food is fresh, hot and did I say fresh!? We ordered Chimichanga plate with rice and beans. You can choose ground beef or chicken….i got beef! Topped with cheese and guacamole and pico and the shell is fried!!!🥰 My foodie partner ordered 5 fried shell tacos for 5.99 folks! Comes with your choice of chicken or ground beef. They were nice sized (my guy is a healthy eater) and he was satisfied! Ummm check this place out-you won’t be sorry!!!!! I’m already plotting my next visit ❤️
Everything is made fresh! You might have to wait for your food but the wait is worth it! They have a Tuesday special of 5 tacos for 5.99 your choice of beef or chicken and you can do soft or hard shell. You can mix and match too. Two of the 5 fill me up. The hash brown breakfast burrito is amazing too. Very authentic and very tasty! A great addition to CR imo!
This place reminds me of De Leon’s in Nebraska. The food is pretty decent. I wouldn’t go as far as to say “amazing” but it’s close.
The service was friendly, although still learning the menu, which caused some confusion.
We ordered the plates meal #7 (two burritos) and a veggie burrito.
Burritos were huge!
We dined inside and the atmosphere is great. Only problem is poor ventilation created a smoke filled environment. Smoke as in grease smoke. It was pretty heavy while there. You will leave smelling like this place.
Food was decent and they have a wide selection of tasteful salsa to choose from.
The creamy green sauce is HOT!
Queso is water consistency with a bit of bite. Good flavor though.
All in all, I would recommend.
