The burrito was good. The pork was tender and the chile verde had a good flavor. I wish the ratio of the pork to fillings was a bit more. The pork was cubed and I felt like I would reach a piece of meat every 3 bites. The salsa bar had several choices ranging from mild to hot. I got a red chile and a green salsa. I really like the red one which was a medium heat. The agua fresca was delicious and refreshing. There were a lot of locals eating here for lunch and you could tell by people saying hello to the staff or others to indict they were acquaintances.

I really enjoyed the complimentary salsa bar and chips. Honestly, you can't go wrong. The chips were light and crispy, and the salsa of my choosing had a good kick to it. I ordered the carne asada burrito and asked for the burrito sauce on the side. The burritos were huge and definitely felt worth the $20 in terms of size. My main complaint was that there was barely any carne asada, and I wasn't a big fan of the burrito sauce. I actually preferred eating it with the salsa instead. The rice had a subtle flavor, which was decent, but overall the burrito was lacking that carne asada flavor I was expecting. For a $20 burrito, I expected more carne asada and a stronger overall flavor.

Love the decor! 6/14/23

I went there for lunch on a weekday, and I was pretty pleased with the service and food. The woman at the counter did speak English so that's always feels more comfortable, especially if you have any special requests. They have an open kitchen where they assemble orders, and the cook was rather friendly. I ordered a roasted pork burrito (I can't remember the name, but it's not carnitas). The meat was tender and tasted like it was slow cooked. The tortilla is not anything special, but all the fillings (rice, beans) were good. There is larger rice than beans ratio, but they give plenty of meat protein. I have been here several times in the past. I remember totally ratchet seating areas, where there were large holes in the floor. There seems to be some updates and the seating area is cleaned up (but I've only done takeout). They now also accept credit cards. For a low cost burrito, this is satisfying. Most burritos are ~ 10.
