I didn't have much time when I visited, but I ordered three pastor tacos (which I believe is the minimum order; I love it when a place let's you order one taco of multiple types). The tacos were good, but are not top tier in CT for me. Relative to the best places, the tacos didn't pop in terms of flavor or texture. They were above average though. No shame in that. Four Stars

She had the carnitas tacos and an enjoyed the chicken mole enchiladas, both of which were delicious. The black beans were particularly good, with my wife eating most of them from my late. Service was good. Ordering is at the front counter, taqueria style, with the meals brought out when they're ready. This is a no-frills establishment, with drinks coolers and a refrigerator full of fruit and desserts right in the dining area. The walls could use a coat of paint and the music is a bit too loud. It's definitely not a Michelin star restaurant but the food was extremely good. We'll stop in again next time we're in Monroe at dinner time.

You can taste quality and craft in what they do and they always look to please. Wish this place was open for dinner because we'd have a new hotspot to go to on a regular basis. Great spot for groups offering vegan, gluten-free, and all lunch and breakfast options. Ample parking around and they are closed on Wednesdays-did you accept credit card payments but you cannot tip on your credit card, so cash tip only, and these people deserve to be tipped well. By the way, did I mention how clean the bathroom is? Always a great sign to see that they put so much pride into everything they do!

When my wife and I finally did, we were hooked. We have been going there now for about ten years. It truly is the best Mexican food. Tonight I had two chicken enchiladas with red Guahillo sauce, and topped with sour cream, diced green onions, and queso fresco. Wow. the flavors! It also came with rice (very flavorful) and black beans (amazing). A real fulfilling and generously filling meal for less than $15. My wife had a black bean burrito. It was huge. She loved it, but only ate half of it. For less than $10. I will have leftovers for lunch tomorrow. I wonder why some reviewers were not very happy. Perhaps their point of reference is Taco Bell, or some other Americanized Mexican style food. Viva Mexicali Rose!

No, but it is a decent burrito for its price of $11. It has great flavor in the ingredients are fresh. This is a place my wife and I go to often when we're looking for a quick bite to eat that's not too expensive. I have also tried their crunchy tacos, which are also very good but I will say they do not travel that well and are better to eat there. If you're looking for a no-frills Mexican spot that won't break the bank, this is the place for you.

There's a lot of good options on the menu, I ordered the cheese steak wrap with french fries. The wrap was good. It had good flavor. The only thing I would suggest is more meat.

I'm a big breakfast person and actually I get eggs for my dog as well but he is not as fussy as I am. I had one order I was not thrilled with but besides that one time dozens of other orders have been perfect. Try and find someplace with delivery that can come close to that. Over medium eggs are exactly that. Not over cooked and not over easy. Many places don't get that part. The bacon is high quality and always crispy not under cooked and rubbery as I have received from other restaurants . They are generous with home fries and hash browns which ever you choose as well as condiments. I have never been to the store so I cant speak to that but their food is fantastic.
