The seating is a bit limited, but the overall setup in the restaurant is nice and cozy. We parked on the street next to the restaurant, as it is located on the main road. We cannot wait to go again and try some more of their dishes. p.s. Looking at some other comments, I agree that it is a bit bizarre to see only 3-4 chips on your plate next to your food. But the main entrees are phenomenal!

I've known about this place for a very long time but never tried it. I've heard mixed things from…read moremany people over the past couple decades, so I decided to see what it's like for myself. There isn't much in the way of ambience; exterior and interior both looked run down. Staff wasn't unkind but I felt an "i'm just doing my job" kinda vibe. I got two black bean burritos; they were served enchilada style and I got a side of guac with each. I omitted cheese and the sides of sour cream. All the ingredients imparted an average flavor. Refried beans were a little bland but okay, rice was decent, red sauce and green sauce had a decent flavor and the red sauce had a good spice kick. The rice, black beans and veggies inside the burritos were alright. Tortilla was decent. Guac was okay but could've been more flavorful. This place isn't going to wow you, but what I like about them is the value you get. They give you a lot of food for the money and I think that's why they've stayed in business for so long. Decent place, especially because of the price/portion ratio.

The tortillas are made from fresh masa pressed to order, which is amazing by itself, but on top of that, every taco I've had is nothing short of delightful. Every time I visit, my order has been increasing by one taco because I can't get enough. They are so kind and friendly, they remember my order and preferred toppings (or lackthereof, met with zero judgement!!), and the atmosphere is super comfortable. It is semi-loud, which I personally have no problem with, but I have seen stuffy older people come in and be turned off (bye, more tacos for me!).

Minutes later, chaos ensued, and there was a line of about 20 people that never went away. They make the tortillas from scratch, I watched a woman in the kitchen, piecing off the dough and then flattening them in a press, and then putting them on the grill, over and over and over again. By the way, their tortilla chips are made of this same homemade goodness. I can see why there was a line out the door until I finished my meal. The tacos I ordered were perfectly seasoned, very tender, and incredibly juicy. I don't think I've ever had tacos like that before. Even if there is a line, I would highly recommend stopping in for these delicious morsels.
