“ They keep this place clean, the ladies are awesome and the food is delicious!! I walked in late after they had almost everything cleaned and put away...I was so hungry...they made me a huge burrito, pork. I also bought a chicharrón, they heated it up for me and put tortillas in the bag. Y'all the tortillas were delicious and the chicharron was perfect!! Please, give these people your business. You won't be sorry if you like Mexican food and good people. ”
“ Good Mexican food if you're looking for something to you grab-n-go in the early wee hours of the morning. Due to the Mexican culture their service is more like hello how you doing what you need goodbyes come again thank you for your business type of service. Not nothing bad about it but they like to move business in and out when inside ordering to go. I can't say nothing bad about their food although I got a few different varieties of breakfast tacos and even put together a combination of my own. They have fresh in-house made chicharrones and their tortillas or even great. As far as dining and the atmosphere it's okay. The food I can honestly say is far from Tex-Mex it's truly authentic Mexican food. Not sure what their lunch is like but you can get everything during a early morning visit as early as 4:30 am. Throughout my mini visits the food has always been great for me. ”
“ Ok guys fair is fair and here we go! What an outstanding family owned restaurant. This place has amazing food and very good customer service. The staff is amazing always smiling and friendly.

“ Great customer service. They have good food and fresh tortillas. You can buy food by the taco, by the pound or how ever you want. ”
“ Every chance I get, I'll stop here and get 2 tacos for breakfast. It's a little pricey if you get a drink and 2 tacos, but those tacos will hold you almost to dinner time. It's well worth it. There may be 2 people there that speak decent English, but they still take their time to work with you to understand what you're trying to order. Just be patient, and you have some of the best tacos off telephone road. ”
