    While I like the ambiance. You really have to be ready for the delicious food. The service is regular and the menu is self explanatory. They have a list of the meats offered. They have a condiment bar for you. It's a must try spot for Taco Tuesday.

    I love the Veggie Burrito at lunch - it's packed and huge! Tastes fresh and clean. I love that their veggie burrito has beans and rice inside - with lots of avocado, pico, and lettuce. I love the salsa bar, theirs a ton of options - spicy carrots, jalapeños, different salsas, juicy lemon and lime wedges, delicious raddishes, onions - I like stopping and eating inside. The service is excellent, It's a chill spot playing great Spanish music. They make awesome nachos, tortas, and micheladas.

    Mmmm easily one of the best burritos I have ever had, it even rivals San Diego's burritos. The food is fresh, fragrant and go together quite well. It also had the perfect amount of moisture and crispyness with every bite without the dripping, soggy-inducing oils that make the bottom of the burrito challenging to enjoy.

    Carne Asada Burrito no beans.

    Ordered Carne Asada burrito Meat tasted and looked old. Could not finish overpriced burrito The food quality has gone down hill

    Stayed the night in Merced and asked a local for the best Mexican food in town. This place actually wasn't recommended, but the reviews interested me. I'm glad I picked this place! Ordered a grilled chicken super burrito. I was a little concerned about the price, but the concern went away after 1.) they gave a side of chips, 2.) I saw how HUGE the burrito was, and 3.) I tasted how delicious the burrito was, really good flavor. Definitely the largest "super" burrito I have ever seen from a restaurant; I had to save a piece for a snack later. I also liked the thickness and flavor of the tortilla chips. If I'm in Merced again, I'll definitely go back. Try it out!

    I'm not going to lie I was a little scared eating here at first the outside does not look appealing and the inside is not any better but it was my first time in Merced and was on the search for good food. They had music playing and looked busy music helped to keep me in, the service however was a bit disappointing costumer service does not exist here. Food wasn't too bad I had an asada torta and al pastor taco paid $23 The torta was good bread was warm and soft the meat was a tad bland not much seasoning for my liking but was much better than expected the salsas helped to elevate the taste. Taco was tasty al pastor meat was seasoned nicely it had a kick to it regular size tortilla

    Rude ass lady cashier. Sorry if you don't like your job but that's not my problem! Put a smile on your face anyways and talk to people with respect (: Burrito and michelada were alright shoutout to the chefs! Chips were super stale. Definitely won't be returning.

    12/4/2023, We ordered this to watch Monday Night Football. An excellent wise decision !!

    I'm not Keith Lee but this shrimp burrito with roasted jalapeños is definitely a 9.2/10 not a 10 just because you put salt on my Chilies l!!! Very good thank you so much

    Ordered the garlic shrimp plate (because they don't offer a shrimp fajita plate???) and was pretty disappointed with both the garlic and shrimp. Garlic was obviously minced garlic from a jar and the taste is just all wrong. There were about 5+ shrimps that were not cleaned/de-veined. That made me not want to eat them and I had to cut off a majority of the shrimp to consume. There were also random big square pieces of onions which I didn't care for. Beans/rice/guac were pretty good. If I dare to go back I will stay away from that dish altogether. Chips were lacking as well; they gave us a maybe 1/4th basket full of hard chips for 2 people to share. Stingy!

    The service was so slow and we were the only ones there that day…read more In the couple of times I been there. The prices are high for the restaurant. Ordered a couple of the drinks and they were good. The food not so much. Ordered; the coconut shrimp so disappointing. 1/5 Bland Ceviche samplers 2/5. The wings were ok. 3/5 The best thing was the camarones ala plancha nothing out of the ordinary. But the best thing the had. Not sure if I want to be back. I believe it's to expensive for what it is.

    Me and my family had dinner here recently and this place seems like a very popular spot. As soon as…read morewe walked in we were greeted with a friendly face and was seated. It's not a very big restaurant, but when you walk in it seems there might be a private room immediately on the right side of entry, unless it's just a small area to the restrooms. Almost all the tables were taken, but these ladies hustled! As soon as we ordered the service was fast and they did not miss a beat. As soon as my son sipped his last drink, here comes the lady with another drink. I was so impressed with the service here. I watched other tables and she was on top of those tables too! The menu has so much to choose from that I didn't know what to get. I ended up getting a shrimp plate and I was sooo full that I didn't finish my food. They serve pretty good size portions here that I was anticipating eating all my food because I was hungry, but they came out with this big oval sized plate. I would love to come again. Service was amazing, it seems like a family owned business and they are super friendly and welcoming here. If you love Mexican food and you're from this are and don't know where to go, check this place out next time!

You know the food's gonna be good when there are Mexican grandmas eating breakfast there. We were brought chips with three different types of salsa. All were good but just different. The chips were amazing. Warm and crunchy. Our meals came out quickly and the chilaquiles were perfect: great sauce, the toppings were just right, the chips were still crunchy and not soggy. The beans were good. I do not speak on rice because I just don't love any Spanish rice. Overall, an excellent meal. We will be back.

    Order: Shrimp Burrito with Carne Asada it came with chips and 3 different salsas…read more This was an outstanding burrito! I cannot express how good everything really was from top to bottom on the burrito. Carne asada was light, not chewy, seasoned well enough. Shrimp tasted like it was just freshly cooked. Tortilla was super thin and light, but held surprisingly well. Rice, which I often hate, was excellent. The Smokey chipotle sauce that comes with it was outstanding! On top of that all of their chips are VERY good. Salas had to of been made that day. They were spicy and exactly what I had hoped for in a salsa. Service was solid, my burrito was piping hot. I'd consider this place to be much more like a hole in the wall type business. They aren't big on the thrills, but man they deliver on the food. Burrito: 8.6/10 DEFINITELY will be back!
