I stopped in because of ratings, and I'm glad i did. Ordered burrito supreme before "lunch time", no hesitation they made my order. So thankful. The burrito was perfect, grilled sealed and didn't fall apart. The ingredients were evenly throughout the burrito, wasn't one bite of all meat or all beans. Both salsas have complete flavor. Thank you! Also, the store has a very clean and organized appearance

2/27/25 NEW OWNERS: Just want to let everybody know the business has changed ownership. I have yet to try their food. So I'm not about to give them less than five stars. The cooks that were here are no longer here . I only came here for the asada taco's. This place was always out of my way. But I wish the best of luck to the new owners. This is the BEST asada TACO I have had in a very very long time. The asada is perfectly cooked, cut and seasoned. Thank you for making an asada so flavorful. The taco is lightly crisp, EXACTLY HOW I LOVE IT.l! The hot sauce is exactly what it states hot, but very flavorful it will give you a lil burn but does not take the flavor from the meat. I recommend this place. You can fill up with 76 gas, pick up some snacks and drinks. They even sell hard liquor and beer WOW? This place is a MUST STOP FOR ASADA TACO'S!! Sorry about the pics try zooming in. Regarding the HOURS the cook said it closes at 10 pm. I went on a Wednesday so I don't know if it's the same every day.
