Authentic??? I don't think so. Basic white woman, definitely. In the limited exchange with the…read morestaff, I found everyone to be friendly. From sitting down to getting our food was less than five minutes. The food was extremely fair priced. However, I cannot call it authentic. The flour tortillas were clearly purchased at the Walmart supercenter. The El Cabrón burrito I ordered was chopped up chicken breast inside a cold flour tortilla, smothered in queso. The beans were very watery and the rice was very good. Once I mix the beans and rice together, the beans seem to have a little flavor. Did I mention the burrito only had chicken inside nothing else? We also get the mango tacos, which was a mini version of the El Cabron burrito with some mango juice poured over the meat. It was fast. It was an expensive and it was filling. It did not remind me of Mexico. When we ordered the mango tacos, I expected some kind of mango chutney on the chicken, unfortunately, it was like someone opened a can of ocean spray and pour it on the meat. We will return, but it was boring.

Greeted politely when my husband and I came in. Took a bit for the waiter to come for our drink…read moreorders. The menu is busy!! Lots to choose from. I got pollo loco hubby got chori pollo. Let me say if you don't like spice DO NOT eat the salsa. Plus the salsa is not complimentary like most Mexican places. My food was not very well seasoned but spicy basically lacking flavor, only could feel the "heat". Hubby said his was good. The music was techno which was odd but honestly better than loud mariachi music, honestly. The staff was on their phones a lot! Which is probably why I didn't get a refill for my beverage and it took 15 minutes to get him to come and take the payment for our meal. So basically this was a meh experience at best.

Finding this place was an awesome off the main find! They make the food to order in front of you like at a sandwich shop and the ingredients are quality. I've had the tacos and burritos and have yet to be disappointed. The staff is friendly and you can tell it's a spot growing in popularity with locals. Worth trying if looking for a fast grab of Mexican food in the east metroplex at a decent cost.

( which i bounce between enchiladas or fajitas) i went with their burrito colorado. Husband tried their house burrito. He's normally a chimichanga guy. I enjoyed mine. It has options of steak, chicken, or shrimp, topped with cheese sauce, picó, rice and beans. We enjoy their chips and salsa. Hopefully in the future we can sit outside on a mice day.
