Wonderful food and service! Almost didn't buy anything when I realized it was only drive-thru, but so glad I did. Definitely worth it. The owner is very friendly and makes everything himself.

My coworker and I go here at least 2-3 times a week. The amount of food you get for the price is unbeatable and it's delicious! 2 grilled chicken tacos is all I need and it's plenty! Jose makes everything fresh himself. Please give him a try

Honestly, I kind of think they have the best tacos around. Lots of toppings, fresh and hot! The service was top-notch, be patient though. There's only one person working there, the owner. But he's doing an awesome job!

This guy has really good food at amazing prices. You should tip him when you go. He runs his ass off whipping up all sorts of goodness. I suggest trying the best torta you will ever eat. He'll make it however you want it. Great owner operated one man show. Drive through only but you'll get better service from him in a drive thru then most people give you dining in.
