    the contents of a meal on a table
    Rick W.

    I ordered 6 breakfast burritos at $12 each after tax. They gave me 4 salsas to go with it. What the fuck? You cant match the salsas to the burritos? Two of my guys now dont get salsa? Do i need to pay extra to get a salsa for each burrito? I dont care what the burrito tastes like at this point. The little attention to detail is what really matters

    Burnt chicken

    Dissatisfied with the chicken dinner, they over cooked the food and still had the audacity to serve the food to go instead of preparing a fresh batch. Call to let them know and employee stated just tell us next time and we will cook it better for you but can't do anything for you now. This place use to be great growing up, food quality has definitely gone down.

    Hair in my chicken wings plate and still no hair nets  won't risk it. Food is good but for hair in my food I'll pass.

    Over all food smelled nice presentable but before eating I picked a fry or too and there was hair under them. Why aren't their hair nets this is the second time won't be back.

    This is an easy place to pass up, but there are a couple things on the menu that keep me coming back whenever I'm in the area. First of all, the fries are amazing. Probably some of the best fries I've ever had, and they always come piping hot. They don't stay that way for long unfortunately, but I would recommend taking your food to go. The inside of the place itself isn't super clean. That's why mankind invented the drive-thru. I usually order the chicken quesadilla - let me preface this by saying it is delicious, but really greasy. I normally end up with a stomach ache the next morning, but I keep taking the risk because it's very good once in awhile when you've decided your diet doesn't matter today. Cheat meal worthy? Maybe not. Hangover remedy? Absolutely.

    I order food here often. But I felt very bad today. As soon as I see the food, I don't really like the store here that gives me the burnt food. I don't understand if you're asking me to eat this. No matter how busy you are, isn't it a little common sense to bring this to the customer?

As I always do, look on Apple Maps then check out the reviews on Yelp. Another location with outstanding reviews, a lot of 5 stars I must add. Was within walking distance from work so only took 5 mins. Right across the street from John Muir Middle School. Walking up to the establishment appeared to be very clean on the outside. A little graffiti on the side of the wall but nothing to be alarmed about. Small parking lot and available street parking also. Upon walking in, it was not crowded or busy with a lot of people but the employees were busy in that kitchen tho. Wish I would've recorded them lol. The restaurant, however, is quiet and clean. Menus displayed up above and across the walls. The Hispanic guy who took my order was very cool, full of good energy and patient. Took about 10 mins for my order. I ordered the "Pastrami Special", which includes; a delicious pastrami sandwich on a French roll, fries and a drink. Gotta have mustard, pickles and cheese on mines. Paired that thang with a strawberry soda. Don't drink soda really but forget about it lol. I really love the service and energy here. After checking my order and taking several pics, I put my food back into my bag only for it to tear and my food to fall out on the floor smh lol. Rest in Peace to some of those fries cuz they went straight in the trash. He saw me get back in line then poked his head out and ask if everything was alright haha. Not only did he replace my paper bag but he also put my order in a plastic bag and threw in another bag of fries for my troubles. Talmbout top tier service. I will definitely be back. Even if I gotta drive across town for another pastrami sandwich. They just earned a new customer. And my sandwich was fire !!! Fries were fresh and hot. Literally no complaints.

You walk in and music is bumping you cannot walk in and avoid not grooving to the sounds playing in the background. Today they had 6 tables and we decided to dine in to take in the whole atmosphere of the music playing in. Background. The menu has allot more options as it did on our last visit. When you order buyer beware food is scrumptious and portions are huge. Food comes served in a container packed! I myself ordered the "Mac n fries plate" at $16.99. What they don't tell ya is that you don't know where to begin eating. It smells good and was so ever scrumptious. The chicken was diced up in bite sizes, the fries were well seasoned and came with a side of Bangin Buns sauce. Mac n cheese was cheesy and my choice of spice for my chicken was mild. We also ordered the "Smash burger and Sandwich" @ $19.49 no pictures available as my hubby didn't want to waste anytime to taste his food. He gave two thumbs up once he finished his chicken sandwich. The Smash burger was on point along with the very well seasoned fries. They served desserts but we opted out on any at this time. Next time id love to try there banana pudding. Parking can get tight as there are several other bussiness in this small plaza. They are on Florence and compton right at corner.

    Food was great service excellent and the fries were bomb right temperature as well. Well doneread more
