“ Needed a quick snack before going to a Super Bowl party. Went through the drive-thru and ordered tacos. Meat was very tasty, well cooked and condiments were the way that I ordered them. Service was fast and friendly and my order was not expensive. I will visit again. ”
“ This is a location that I've had a love affair with since the 90's. Although they have switched cook most likely several time over the years. They have maintained a level of service that very few establishments can achieve. Associates that personal come to your car to take your order. Item that are made fresh when you order them. Friendly service that even if you change your order late minute still greet you with a smile and say thank you. Unfortunately I have move too far to make the commute here regularly, if I am ever in the area it still worth the visit. I gave it a 4 stars because the food was a little off today. But, their service, their attention to details and smile plus happy demear deserve the 4 stars. Wonderful place for a late night hot meal. I recommend the Mexican style tacos. ”
“ The tacos and rice and beans are delicious , but one day we had order tostada's and they weren't that great and be careful when you order there because we got charged 30.00 for two tostada's and 5 small taco', we didn't complain we should of ! but we know better now and we were thinking well maybe we helped paid a bill or some thing is how we looked at it and probably won't go back ! ”
