Come during off hours. Food is great but operations are not efficient. They need to learn operations from Chipolte.

The salad here with pork is pretty damn yummy

Lindsey Scott

This place sucks... Only good for a drink. Got a vegetarian salad . Supposedly you get more rice and beans. At least at Chipotle you get grilled veggies and extra guacamole .

Tortillas were great, bit I will never eat here again. There are much better value/authentic Mexican food restaurants around here.
