“ I like their drive through. The service was friendly and fast. The grilled chicken burrito was tasty and i will be coming here again in the future ”
“ If you find yourself trying to decide between two menu items..just get both. It'll be worth it. One tip- don't let the drive-thru fool you. It's not fast food. If you order a few meals at the speaker, you'll probably have to wait a bit at the window. We never have issues ordering ahead though. ”
“ First thing I noticed? The glass door was clean, no greasy fingerprints. Tables, countertops & floor was spotless. Now I can relax and eat! Service was excellent. Food for both of us was amazing. My friend had the shrimp taco. I had beef and beans and corn tortillas. All great, but to top it all, we had flan. Wow! ”
“ The Happy Chicken. How I love you. We've been ordering this chicken for about ten years. It's never ever disappointed. It's got a fantastic smoked flavor, great spices, and perfectly cooked every time. We always get a family meal and a lot of extra rice for kid. In the last year I save all bones and make a tortilla soup that warms my bones. The restaurant is an order at the counter place. Clean and open seating. When we've visited in person the employees have been kind and accommodating. Nice place to stop after a trip to the Aerospace Museum. ”
“ Super friendly. The mole was very good. I will come here again when I am in the area. ”
“ The torta portion is relatively small but it is very good. With the side of salsa I was able to be filled. I was recommended by a coworker to try the chicken which I forgot to order. Will update review when I try their chicken. Overall very happy with the meal. ”
“ I ordered food to go from here, and it was amazing. I got the shrimp burrito and it came with fresh salsa and chips.the shrimps were big and juicy and the sauces were amazing. The fresh salsa was delicious with a nice kick. Portion size is nice as well. I cant wait to come back and try the plates and quesadillas! ”
“ Randomly picked this one on DoorDash but it was definitely a win. I went with the chicken breast and two side combo. Chicken was juicy, flavorful and the salsa is pretty legit! Would try again. ”
“ Not only is it very close by, it's consistently wonderful. The food is flavorful and fresh, and we always end up ordering more than we can eat. The chicken is happy and so are the customers. ”
