09/28/21 Tried this place for the first time with my husband and we will definitely be coming back. By other google recommendations I tried the meat taco and meat quesadilla. My husband tried the chicken burrito and combo burrito. Every thing was good but we would recommend the meat quesadilla and chicken burrito. I’m looking forward to going back to try the asado burrito and meat burrito.
