John B. "Went for lunch on a Thursday, it was very busy so that was a good sign that the food must be very good. Well I was right.We had the lunch special Brisket sandwich with fries and bottomless soda fountain drinks.Sandwich was awesome! With pickles and a little coleslaw with sides of BBQ sauce and salsa.Service was friendly, fast and efficient. We will be back again."

Camille B. "I am super impressed with this spot. It has really become a quick go to for me for tacos. They have meat and potato tacos, as well as breakfast burritos. I tend to get the asada with medium salsa. I like the simplicity and freshness of this place. They have added 2 tables if you want to eat in.Now as for the rest of it, this place is well stocked. Almost a mini grocery store! There's a fresh vegetable section, the pastries are pretty delicious with good variety and reasonable pricing. There's lots of treats to be found around here, good selection for tea flavors. There's tons of spices and seasonings for your meats and the deli counter is huge. They do cakes, piñatas, and have a small dairy section. There's seafood as well. Every soda flavor you could ever need including glass bottle real sugar kinds. I definitely love exploring here and finding new things to try or old favorites. The staff is super friendly and welcoming. The line is never too long. The food always comes out quickly. There's really nothing bad I could say about it! Definitely everything you need for a great cookout is here. Look no further!"

Jason Z. "The burritos run $11.99 and are made while you wait. They're flavorful, big and had a lots of meat. A warning , tell the cook if you order carnitas(No quiero huesos por favor!). Mine had ten little bones, it was not cool for dental. All the menudo was out by 9:45 AM, show up at 8:00 AM if you want some."

I'm basing this review on my order of a tri-tip plate with chili beans, salad, and a Pyrenees roll. Best tri-tip I've had in town. Very tender, flavorful all the way through, not overly smoked. The chili had a few different flavors and noticable slices if garlic, but was a tad salty. The salad had green peppers, which was a nice touch. I was given the wrong dressing, but after tasting it, I didn't mind because it was really good. I even liked the salsa that came with the meat. I'm not a fan of sweet, so I don't usually opt for BBQ sauce, and having options on the side was appreciated. And a Pyrenees roll...? C'mon. Who doesn't love those local rolls? I had a bite of the dino rib and really liked the flavor, but it was half fat and some bits of it were dry, according to the hubby. The hot link mac and cheese had a hint of spice, and that is based off a bite without a piece of the sausage in it.I'll definitely go back again and try other options, though it will be hard to not get the Tri-tip again.

Excellent carniceria with great customer service. Their meat (carne asada and pollo preparado) is always fresh and perfectly seasoned. I often crave their conveniently packaged shrimp cocktails and salsas. I don't leave with adding a few hot links and a hunk of queso fresco. Keep up the good work, fellas!
