Me and my wife stopped in to have a late dinner and food and staff was amazing we both got the steak fajitas and the Mexican street corn ribs we will be back I also had a margarita it was great as well
The hostess (beautiful young lady) is always very nice and friendly! The food is fast when picking up and their nachos are the freshest nachos I’ve ever had. Chipotle needs to take some learning from them! Great food!
Great place to stop for delicious Mexican food. Bonus - they have horchata! I had a vegetarian burrito and my husband had the fish tacos for taco Tuesday. Thank you El Vaquero!
