We tried the Korean barbecue ribs, which had a nice flavor. The ribs weren't particularly meaty, but they were still good. The only thing I'm not a fan of is their coleslaw. I'm not quite sure what flavor profile they're going for, but it's just not my preference. A large pulled pork is easily enough for two meals if you're not super hungry. Overall, a solid meal.

Usually a fan, today was A-ok…read more I'd seen their $3 specials menu available Tuesday/Thursday and finally got my act together to try it. Good variety to choose from, I opted for a sausage wrap and a chicken taco. Added a potato salad and a coke from the fridge, bringing it to just over $10 after tax and before tip. Now this is the budget menu--don't be expecting fancy toppings on your taco. You're getting carb and meat. The sausage is short but fat, has good flavor and one wrap would do me for lunch. The chicken taco was not enormous, but generous with the chicken. It was well seasoned if on the dry side; both sausage and pollo were hot, smoky, and grilled tasty. So no onion/chiles, lettuce/tomato, no problem. Here's where it got weird. When I went to open the included standard shots of condiments, the bbq sauce was watery and my beloved jalapeño ranch....wasn't ranch. I think it was jalapeño mayo? Glad they came on the side, as I chose not to use them. An unusual glitch in smooth service for a year but I have to report honestly. If you're taking it home or carry Yellowbird sauce in your purse or car, you'll be fine. As it is, I was glad I'd ordered the potato salad to help that taco go down. Despite the off condiments, I'm happy with my budget items and I'll gladly try everything else on that $3 list outside of the corn dog. My usual caveat: I don't do big plates of carne here, just snacks and thick sandwiches. Love their late night hours, tons of parking, 95% friendly service. Their pork sliders are a solid bargain, and I'm a sucker for their Texas tots, stoner mac, and usually excellent jalapeño ranch.

This evening, I opted for my AJ's favorite, the bacon and fried egg cheeseburger. I wanted a…read morepretzel bun, and although they were out of pretzel buns, the sourdough bun -- toasted, natch -- was absolutely delicious. The burger was great: the meat was tasty, and the fried egg and bacon added just the right amount of flavor. Also, I got lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles to take away. There could have been more lettuce, but that is a minor nitpick. Fries were quite tasty, and all told, it hit the spot. I shared the burger and fries with Mrs. R. because as a forty-four-year-old who still wants to fit in his pants, I can't eat the full burger and fries. As always, great place, open late, and tasty.

El Calentano is worthy. For $16 before tax you get half a chicken that has been brought to perfection over a smoky fire. Crisp skin and meat falling off the bone with some rice, beans, tortillas, salsa verde with kick, and a garnish of both raw and grilled onions AND jalapeños. We split it between two moderately hungry adults and were satisfied. It is simple, it is solid, and for $16 it is a great deal.

The chicken was wonderfully seasoned, had the right level of smoke, and was nearly melt-in-your-mouth tender and juicy. The rice had just the right level of seasoning, and the beans also had a wonderful combination of animal fat, peppers, and onions. Seriously, this was so good, and the meal also came with cooked and raw onions, as well as with cooked and raw jalapeños. Everything was ready within ten minutes, and the person working the truck was friendly and helpful. Not only was the meal incredibly delicious, but it fed two adults for right at twenty dollars. Seriously recommend.

They come out with the black blister marks and great hearty texture that reminds me of when my grandma would make tortillas. I most always go in and order to-go but have dined in a few times. The service is always tip top every time. I have never had a bad interaction here and the staff is always friendly. Outside of breakfast tacos the other Tex-Mex fare is really good as well. They have beer and liquor as well. So if you want a beer or marg with your meal, you are set. This place is just a gem of a mom and pop shop that delivers the Tex-Mex goods. Oh and they have a drive-thru as well.
