Reviews
We visited on a Friday night and had an amazing time. The food & drinks were great, everything came to the table quickly. Our server was sweet and knowledgeable about the menu. The restaurant’s aesthetic is fun and it's tucked away in a quiet part of the city. We had the birria tacos, enchiladas, spicy & regular margaritas, street corn and tres leches cake. They also have a late-night happy hour during the weekend called “outlaw hour”- so cute! Everything was great and we look forward to coming back soon.
This place hits the spot for brunch (and other meals I assume) - we had great service and the food/drinks were excellent. I got the jesucristo sandwich and would highly recommend! Looking forward to coming back soon
When my friend and I came in for margaritas, we ordered a pitcher for $23.99 and when it came out, our first impression was that it was very small for its price. The waitress also seemed to be annoyed with the fact that we said that we would order after we had some time to look over the menu since we had not been there before. The margaritas were very good, but when we had ordered food to go, we did not get one of our orders. Overall, it has good food and drinks, but when it comes to getting refills on your soda drinks, it’s only one free refill and if you want more chips and salsa refills, you will have to pay for them.
We ordered some carryout entrees for dinner and so glad we did! Our order was ready quickly, and completed exactly correct. The food was all excellent. So flavorful, and generous portions too! The salad with chicken was a particular favorite and not like any salad we have ever had at a Mexican restaurant before, and in a great way!! The staff was friendly, kind and helpful.
I am vegetarian and I went to here one week ago, found good options and it was great place for food and I like that cozy atmosphere and people are great at serving and they are very respectful and friendly. Food was very fresh. Now I will go there every few days.
We were visiting DC from Texas and we've been burned before by so called "Tex Mex" restaurants, but this one is a true gem. You want authentic Tex Mex, definitely hit this place. Frozen margaritas, great queso, fajitas were so tender and delicious. I'd give more than 5 stars if I could. Great atmosphere, great service. You gotta go.
Quick service and great food. I got the fish tacos but could only eat 2 out of 3.
Brunch -
I am a vegetarian, I would definitely not suggest this place for veggies. It isn’t worth it and they are not even ready to customize the meal. Too much cheese In all veggie food too.
Friends ordered fish taco and Enchiladas thinking that wouldn’t be messed up, indeed it was.
Pinãcolada all time fav drink had no taste.
Would definitely not recommend to any vegetarians out there, not worth the price.

This Mexican restaurant is THE BEST I've ever had the privilege to eat in. The food is the best. Beans, rice chicken chimichanga rocked 5 stars WITH EASE. Every aspect of the food was good. Service and staff were exemplary. Gregorio was a great server. I highly recommend.
I have been to Mexican restaurants around the country and this one was the best I've ever eaten at.

Good food. Of all the things we ordered the ceviche was the best thing.
Everything needed some salt.
The restaurant is pretty big and the servers are nice and quick. We got seated within 5 minutes and the servers asked what we wanted for drinks within 5 minutes of sitting down. The vibe of the restaurant did not give “mexican” but more “steakhouse”.
I ordered a horchata and it came in a beer glass mug dressed with a flower and Outshine ice cream bar. The ice cream tasted great, and the horchata was watered down. I used the ice cream as a stirred and melted it in which added to the overall flavor and creaminess of the horchata.
My friend compared the sampler to a fast food level 😜 and I would agree that some fast food may taste better than it. At least compared to everything else, this could have been made better.
The baja tacos were tasty and fresh tasting. The ingredients made a combination with the rice and avocado.
The ceviche was the highlight of the night.
It’s in the appetizers and have several options between fish, shrimp, or octopus. We got the octopus and it was tender. Just the right amount of zing and the flavor was good.

I stopped by the store to get two smoke brisket ball after I pay the bill, I asked if I can have hot sauce. The lady in the front asked the manager. if We have hot sauce she said no we out of hot sauce I was upset. I sat down. I was eating my food. Suddenly I see a box of hot sauce brought out this was in the morning 12 o’clock when I asked her she said I’m sorry I didn’t know we had hot sauce. with attitude you can tell she lying to her teeth I think you shouldn’t let people like this working as a manager. This is last time I will come to the store
I recently dined at Las Asadas, and it did not disappoint! The steak was incredibly juicy, packed with flavor in every bite. The al pastor was also delicious, perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of spice. Plus, everything was very affordable, which is a huge plus for the quality of food they serve. If you’re craving authentic, flavorful Mexican food without breaking the bank, Las Asadas is the place to go!
Disappointing Experience at a Beautifully Decorated Restaurant
We visited this Mexican restaurant in Branson, MO, drawn by its great reviews and charming ambiance. The decor and atmosphere are wonderful, giving a warm, inviting vibe that made us excited for the meal. Unfortunately, the food and service fell far short of expectations.
We ordered queso, chicken and vegetarian chimichangas, Taco’s, chicken and vegetarian enchiladas, and chicken and vegetarian fajitas. The queso was the highlight—it looked and tasted good. However, the rest of the food was disappointing. The chimichangas were deep-fried to the point that they didn’t taste good at all, leaving a heavy, greasy aftertaste. The other dishes were just okay, lacking the flavor and quality we had hoped for, especially based on the glowing reviews.
The worst part of our experience was the major error with my friend’s order. A vegetarian friend was served a chicken chimichanga, which the waiter assured was vegetarian. Unfortunately, my friend took a bite before realizing the mistake. When I informed the waitress, there wasn’t even an apology, which was shocking. She eventually brought out a vegetarian chimichanga, but it was deep-fried again, leaving us disappointed with both the food and the service.
The lack of hospitality was glaring. Our waitress showed no empathy, and her indifferent attitude made the whole experience more unpleasant. We had high hopes for this restaurant, but the poor service and subpar food left our group very dissatisfied. We wouldn’t recommend it based on our experience.

We loved our experience here! Absolutely delicious food, interesting options, and yummy drinks! We tried the margarita flight and loved every single one. The atmosphere is nice, but not so fancy that you feel like you have to be dressed up. Will be back next time we visit Branson!
Mhatt is an excellent bartender and server. He is one busy guy, and came back and checked on us often. His service skills were outstanding. We enjoyed watching him make all kinds of fancy drinks. My daughter got a mojito and it was amazing. Took our deserts to go. Recommended stopping if your in Branson.
Delicious! Went on a Tuesday afternoon while vacationing in Branson, hardly any crowd and service was wonderful! Great atmosphere and music.
We had chicken quesadilla, enchiladas, beef and chicken tacos and all were awesome!
Very tasty and authentic and fresh tasting food.
We are from Texas where there are a lot of Tex Mex and this one did not disappoint!

As soon as I walked in, I felt very uncomfortable! No greeting and the staff(only 3) seemed very cold! I asked the server for a burrito, and he began to prepare he added the rice as I asked, and he added the beans also. That's where it stopped he became agitated as if I was annoying him. I abruptly told him, "I don't want it," and exited the building! Word of advice Chavas: THIS IS AMERICA!!!! Have an amount of some type of respect. Very rude! Honestly, it's not that clean in there, and I definitely DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!
My honest review will not be a great review on this restaurant. Although this location has such a beautiful setting on the inside and outside of the perimeter, the customer service aspect was lacking. I had such high expectations the first time I visited this place, but one of my orders was missing and I had to return to the restaurant. Today, I gave this restaurant a second chance and I ordered from to-go again. While I was waiting for my food, I informed the bartender of my last experience and as expected, something else was missing from my orders. Both times, I went back to the restaurant after opening my food at work. I had such a poor experience that I will not be returning to this restaurant.
We were in Branson last weekend to see and experience Queen Esther at Sight and Sound Theater, and we stayed in The Clarion Hotel, which is just across 76 Hwy from Pancho Villa's. The food was exceptionally good and the service was wonderfully delightful! 😊 Well worth our time and money!!!:)
We have been here a few times. It’s a bit of a wait but the food has been consistently excellent. Last time it was shrimp ceviche and shrimp taco. Mango burrito this time was fresh and tasty!
Good food and fun atmosphere! I wouldn't say it's the best Mexican food I've ever had, but it's tasty.
We've been in 6 or 7 times since they opened and all but 1 time they messed up our order. It's usually my daughter and I. We generally order 3-4 items total and they still forget one item somehow or put in beef when we wanted beans/vegetarian. They also seem to skimp on ingredients. I don't know what other Taco Bell's are like. I hadn't been to one in 20 plus years.
Had brunch on the patio. Great spot tucked away just one block from New York Avenue. Our server Hope was phenomenal - she was super attentive and pleasant. She recommended the brisket hash special which was great. The big portions made great leftovers to serve on top of nachos the next day. Can’t wait to go back to try the breakfast tacos.
Food was phenomenal, pricing was fair.
The atmosphere is good and the service was somewhat slow but not awful.
The food came out fairly quickly and I was surprised by how good the vegetable side was...the way they cut them plus the cream/butter and slightly salty sauce on them made for a very nice combination.
The horchata drinks were both good, personally think the regular horchata was better than the horchata latte.
I definitely recommend this place!

On a recent late-night visit to this location, my wife and I didn’t expect much for food or customer service. To our delight, those expectations were quite blown out of the water. The sole employee working at that hour was patient and helpful over the drive thru intercom. When we got to the window, he explained that a couple items we ordered were unavailable (he was filtering the fryer!! Not all fast food joints keep up with their fryer maintenance!! good on him!!) — he kindly offered alternatives and adjusted our order. He then proceeded to prepare and hand us our order promptly, all while maintaining a very friendly, positive, respectful, and welcoming demeanor. On top of all that, the food was precisely what we’d ordered (modifications made perfectly) and, especially for Taco Bell, tasted very good.
The fast food workers we often deal with (in Canada) would not have offered us alternatives, and would’ve given us the typical, shoddy (at best) customer service we’re used to… This guy, however, was some different, and he deserves a good review and a raise.
Went at approximately 11:30pm on 9/29/2024 so you corporate and management folks can ensure that this gem of an employee is properly rewarded and compensated.

Great food. Great people. Just slow to open.
Table seating wait time was satisfactory and the staff were very attentive and helpful on showing the menu and deal offerings for the day.
In general, the Mexican food was flavorful but not 100% representative of authentic foods that could be offered by food trucks or businesses to the East of this restaurant. Without embargo, the portions were great, there was a wide selection of drinks and the scenery was impeccable.
For the area around the Cathedral, I would recommend Cactus Cantina as a safe Latino option for when you explore the plentiful neighborhoods and businesses that are accessible by Metrobus and walking.

Our food tasted great.
But my husband's shrimp Chimichanga only had 1 shrimp.
I had delicious cheese enchiladas.

This is the Chipotle giving the least meat. Meat is less than the sauce.
Great service, bit of a wait. You wait in the gift shop....thats wierd and they charge 3% on credit/debit which for a larger restraunt is insane. Food was very good with lovely presentation. Bathrooms were clean 😊
Tonight, my friend and I took a long walk down to the Taco Bell ravenous and ready to eat. When we arrived around 8:30 the lobby was closed and though they posted hours are until 12 AM the drive-through line closed at 9 PM. Though we were unable to order at all as we were on foot, rather than informing us over the speaker, we waited for 10 minutes at both drive-through entrances. Then they immediately answered the next customer in a car, while we accepted their policy, ignoring us was rude and foul, especially when we were on an empty stomach.
Got food, horrible service. They are rude as hell. And I just don’t understand how you could live here for 10 years and not speak English. I don’t wanna sound like that, but it’s honest to God truth… I just don’t get it. Also it was like 100 degrees in there. I guess they’re goin for the authentic Mexican experience.
It took 3 mins for food, we loved it . You should eat here. The empty plate is the huevos rancheros. Absolutely delicious.
little hole in the wall atmosphere is weak, the food was decent and very hot worth eating at
I have been a frequent customer for the last few years. I have never been disappointed. The food tastes amazing, and the proportions are great! The staff are very friendly and kind. The service is very fast, and the prices are budget friendly. Dine in and Take out are both great options!
Food was very delicious 😋 I recommend coming here. Very nice workers and very clean and neat
Great Tex mex and happy hour deals. Cool vibe on the inside and cute patio. Margaritas were spot on.
Great Chipotle with a better staff. Miguel, the current assistant manager, is particularly good with his exceptional customer service and general kindness
EL MEJOR AL PASTOR EN TODO DES PLAINES!!! Tony and Mikey are the men behind the magic. The quality of the food is not only great, but the craftsmanship behind every dish is incomparable. Las Asadas is not just a good local spot to try; it is an indulgence of delicious, savory meats and cuisine. Bring your friends, your family visiting from out of town, or pick it up for lunch during a tough work week. You will not be disappointed. I can’t stress enough how much these two men care about their business, and it shows in their relationship to the food. The only complaint I can make is that they close at 6, but I know these hardworking gentlemen need to rest to maintain such a high quality of service.
The food is prepared very quickly, the location is fairly clean in a pleasant looking shopping center, the portions were MASSIVE for Chipotle and certainly worth the $9.75 for a bowl - no complaints here! I am always satisfied when I order from this location!
Food was amazing! Our first time in Branson and so glad we went here! Whole family loved it!
Awesome breakfast tacos. If I had more time, I’d want to come back for a dinner.
Bartender made an excellent ranch water.

The food is delicioso! We stopped to eat before going to the nearest Target, back in April, and were still dreaming of returning to eat here! seating outdoor which is nice but no shade so be mindful of that.
Outside Mexican dining with great views of the bay and marina. Order at left window, pickup on right. The best asada fries I've ever had! Perfect amounts of queso, pico, and beef. They leave the seeds in the jalapeños. Best $15 you could spend on food! You have to try this place! Park behind, or at the gas station nextdoor. 3 parking spots for special needs (2 at back, 1 at gas station), and plenty of parking all around.
In my opinion- a true Chicago institution.
Maybe I'm biased. My parents first date was to their location on Oakton. They've been married 40 years now. We hardly ever ate out growing up, but if we did on that rarest occasion, we would share a burrito at Las Asadas in Des Plaines. For all these decades we've only ever had one thing there - burrito with steak, onion, cilantro, cheese, accompanied by their green sauce/salsa. I'll never try anything else because there's no way it can get better than that. It's delicious, and a delightful mom n pop / hole-in-a-wall in the absolute best of ways. The burritos are getting a bit skinnier as the years go by, so I hope it doesn't continue that way. I'll come here every time I visit Chicago so long as they're serving up steak and salsa as they do to this day.

Airbnb host recommended this place. The salsa was better than most and all three of us enjoyed the food. Would come back again. Sound level inside was getting higher at 2:02 Sunday afternoon as more people were arriving. Could still have a conversation, but if you use hearing aids outside may work better. Lots of outdoor seating in the shade.
I get it that it's a big theme with taco bell that the employees are stoners and such and it's not meant to be a high quality place but this location is beyond ridiculous and I would be embarrassed to work there. Saw the manager in broad daylight in the parking lot hitting someone's dab pen with his headset still on and everything. Extremely unprofessional, way to look like a huge loser too. Should be fired, that is just unacceptable at your place of work let alone for all your potential customers to see. Disappointed to have these examples in our beautiful little town.
Nice little place for authentic Mexican food. The complimentary salsa is some of the best I've had. The carne asada for my street tacos was seasoned perfect.
Rode out from the lower mainland looking for tacos. Was a fun ride. Outdoor seating is plenty. Service is great.
Wish they had hotter hot sauce! It was mild.
The cod taco was excellent.

I'm used to authentic Mexican food, so the food here was just okay and a little overpriced. The horchata tasted like a powdered drink mix rather than a freshly made one.
5/2024 4* The food was tremendous. And plenty of it too! Staff was friendly for sure. A bit dated inside.
Never noticed this place on 7th Ave Brooklyn, but I was pleasantly surprised at the service and the food. The menu has a wide array of regular diner food and Mexican . It's not to big and has outdoor seating so if you want a quick Mexican fix or breakfast you should check this place out.
It was our first time here, and it was absolutely delicious. We started with guacamole as an appetizer, and it was amazing! Then I had shrimp enchiladas. They were fresh and delicious as well. We had Rina as our server, and she was prompt, attentive, and friendly! Service was fantastic!
Really strange. It says they're open until midnight but I don't believe they are. We placed a mobile order at 11:15, all the lights were on, but when we pulled into the drive thru to give our name, we sat there with no one on the speaker. We pulled forwards, and for about a minute we waited until all the lights went off in the kitchen. There were still people at the drive thru behind us mind you. So either they closed early or someone there didn't want to do their job and would rather just let people sit in the drive thru. At least put up a sign or something lmao.
food was amazing, wonderful service Julie was our waitress & she great with our group of 10 definitely will be coming back 10/10 recommend
The place was clean and bright. Seemed to be a local favorite there was 3 big parties there. But we still got our food at a reasonable time. It was very good, the staff was friendly. Reasonable price for the amount of food.
Food was delicious. The staff were very friendly and pretty quick for the number of people there. I can't wait to try other things. We had a steak burrito and a chimichanga burrito. Both were amazing.
This is a really good and authentic Mexican tacqueria and torta place. It's as authentic as any roach coach you'll find in Southern California and a lot more sanitary. You have a great water view and an outdoor gas fireplace with piped in 70s music. They're open for breakfast and their breakfast taco and torta are excellent and they don't skimp on fillings. Now that it's hot, get some Mexican pop with your meal.
I walked in and was greeted by a friendly waitress with a smile. Overall atmosphere was fine, nothing fancy but clean and music was not overly loud which I really appreciate.
Chips and salsa were just OK. Chips were fresh, but the salsa tasted like glorified tomato sauce. I believe the salsa is made fresh in the restaurant but it's missing something, some zest, not alot of spice and the first bowl had one small onion chunk and the rest was just a average watery salsa, no bust cilantro flavor and mild in taste.
I came at dinner time after the rush about 7:30 and there were several couples / families and not overly busy.
I was surprised/a little disappointed that the cheapest entrée was $12.99 for 2 enchiladas and rice and beans, which isn't terrible but definitely not a deal, but maybe with price increases this is normal.
I ordered the chicken chimichanga. The menu description said it came with cheese sauce, I was expecting a normal white queso sauce but this seemed like the base was more Velveeta or American cheese based,which was good but not what I was expecting or wanting.The chicken had a reasonable flavor to it and bigger chunks not fine Shredded chicken. The chimichanga plate also came with a side of rice and beans, Pico, sour cream, and guac, all of which seemed fresh and quality seemed ok. I feel like portion sizes were also exceptable. I understand this is not going to be authentic Mexican as the Restraunt clearly says "tex-mex," but I did wish for a little more flavor. Everything was good but on the bland side. I don't feel like I wasted my money, but this truly is just an average Mexican Restraunt, nothing to write home about.

I was hungry af a few minutes ago and I had no idea where to go at first but when I saw a good number of people going in, I decided “why not?” And I’m glad I did. BIG portions for really decent prices! I ordered a burrito and nachos. OMFG imma say that I found my new favorite Mexican restaurant! ❤️ It’s very local to me (less than five minutes walk from my house) and I got leftovers for lunch tomorrow! The people behind the counter are VERY friendly and they make your food in front of you. This place is the GOAT.
One of the CLEANEST diners in New York City. Tucked away…a hidden gem. The bathrooms are SPOTLESS (always judge a place by the cleanliness of its bathrooms!) and food is TERRIFIC.
This is the first Taco Bell south of the Canadian border. Even if teenagers make the food here, it's better than Taco Bell in Canada. They have Diablo really hot sauce which isn't available in Canada. The ingredients are spread well throughout the burrito and the wrappers correspond to the contents. Clean toilets but always loaded with people so the service is a bit slow. That's my only complaint since it can take 15 minutes to get your order if you dine in, because even the drive through line is pretty long.
Great experience. A nice getaway from over priced diner food in NYC. This place is as simple as it gets with a very large menu and fair prices. Outdoor seating is available with a TV. My girlfriend had a problem with her food (nothing was done incorrectly by the staff, she thought there were too many pineapples in her al pastor) the staff got her a new dish and did not charge us for it. Staff was very friendly and the facilities were clean. Would recommend for a casual day out.
We went as a school group with 20 students plus staff.
Food is great, except some of us didn't love the fries because they are too thin. The lava cake is amazing!! Service and staff are very nice and great at their job. There is lot of space and is very accommodating to large groups. We will be coming back again!!

1st time there ordered omelette with ham..was overcooked & dry. The homefries was just ok..could have been seasoned alot better..for 2 orders & 2 coffees totaled almost $35 was not worth it all. The service I would say was good though. Firsr impressions...very important. I dont know about the other foods on the menu. Did not enjoy the food at all...did not even eat much of it. Costly & dissatisfied.
Graduated from Ball State and came back after YEARS for alumni gear and this place was still here! I just couldn't pass up stopping in here. They're always so sweet and generous. The food tastes just like I remember, delicious.
So my first time here just today. I thought about doing an order on line but instead just went in and glad I did. Folks are very friendly and willing to offer suggestions as needed. I did the tacos. They are GREAT!! Really fresh. Great flavors!! I tried one each of Steak - great meaty bites perfect flavor/ Barbacoa- just melts in your mouth/ Al Pastor-spicy but nice bites of steak. Oh and get the lemonade- not the small one! Wish I had gotten the larger one once I tasted it!! 3 tacos were more than enough to fill me up. Plenty of parking, quick service I will be back for sure!! PS :this place is Jeep Friendly!!!
A rather nice Mexican place that offers great options at DC prices.
They have fun quesadilla options like crab quesadillas, classic fare like enchiladas and tacos. I had tacos al pastor, and I was a little disappointed that they didn't have pineapple options, but their margaritas for $11 are pretty strong and good! I also really liked the complementary chips and salsa.
The space is rather large, so it is easy for a big party to visit.

Prices are very good & the food is amazing!!! Little hidden gem, definitely recommend!
The food here is amazing and filling. Their bathroom was so clean ! like let’s be real not too many restaurants have clean bathrooms. I love the fact that its location is low key . I will be back
Great place and they take care of you.
The waitstaff is very tentative and great recommendations. Their chips and salsa was fresh and supposedly make it everyday!
Wish they had seated us better. A round table and square table don’t join well.

Happened past on a Tuesday at dinner time. I am so thankful we stopped in. The food was delicious, portion sizes were great, and it all came out hot. The atmosphere was phenomenal and the staff from start to finish were friendly and professional. This will be a favorite location and I can't wait to share with visiting family and friends.
Just your average Mexican restaurant. Nothing to see here. Food is pretty much what you expect. Service was okay. The place could use a little updating. Left a little underwhelmed. I was looking for something fresh and inviting but I got the same old menu they all serve.
This place is awesome! The food was delicious and the server was friendly. There is outdoor seating, but it was cold so we ate in the car. I would have taken a photo of the food but it smelled and looked too good to wait so we devoured it. :) The Starbucks has a nice lighthouse and there is a fun Bigfoot statue near the Chevron as well and happens to be nearby.
Great place for family's & friends.
Friendly & helpful staff/servers.
The food menu is huge with lots of typical mexican options and dishes. Could be a little smaller, though, to not get confused while choosing what to eat. Had mixed grill Fahitas, which were tasty, but could have more Mexican spices & aromas. The portion size is more than enough to get full. Complementary Tortilla Chips with and outstanding Salsa where super good. Margherita super tasty.
Overall a 5 start experience.

I would give this place a 0 if I could. I am SO sorry I came in at 945 to order food. They close at 11 pm!? I don't care if you close at 930pm, and I walk in. I appreciate good service. The reception/ attitudes I received were cold as the ice, which was warmer. I have been to worse establishments and rec"d better service. All I am saying is if it is 1045 am or pm (closing), try to have a nice attitude toward your customer. Especially if you don't want to see nasty reviews here.
Casual dining. Service was prompt and professional. The staff were always on the move, making sure things were well run.
The jalapeño burger was made exactly as requested, and had excellent flavor balanced with a mild heat. Fries remained crispy and warm throughout the meal.
Dining buddy had a ham and cheese omelette + refried beans. 2 thumbs up for that order too.

I really hate to leave this kind of review. They are so kind and the service is good.
We've tried a few local Mexican places and those are far superior in taste.
We ordered three different plates. The best thing was a hard taco and that was good only because I took some of the sauce for the state platter that we ordered. The beat didn't taste, chew noe look like beef.
Shave as the atmosphere was great at the services pretty good. It's the closest Mexican place but we're going to travel farther next time we want this kind of food.

Great place for good Mexican food. Service very attentive. Can't wait to go back.
Soon as I walked in owner welcomes you. I ordered a burrito with asada regular size and a huarache de Al pastor and to top it off un agua de horchata large. By the way the horchata is house made you can tell by the little bits of the grain of rice. They’re asada is super flavorful and they’re al pastor hit the spot. Everything they do mostly is house made. They’re salsa negra and red sauce is by far my favorite for the asada. The al postor I just added the red sauce which gave it a nice kick. They’re have your food out in about 5mins after ordering. I definitely recommend this spot to any new people in the area. A lot of repeat customer come in I know cause the owner know them by name. 10/10 recommend
Came in and there was virtually no line. Workers gave substantial portions, much larger than what I’m used to at my home Chipotles. Food was great, tasted pretty standard for a Chipotle.
My first time trying their tacos and I must say this place is a gem. If you want authentic Mexican tacos this is your spot! The portions are generous and the quality and taste are extremely delicious. Soft and juicy👌 You will get your money's worth for sure. I will be a regular from now on.
Avoid. They skimp horribly on ingredients, they push kiosk ordering instead of hiring employees, and every single table was dirty. Our first trip had a quesadilla that was completely empty in 2/4 slices, the second time it hadn't been cooked, zero melted cheese, and it had the jalapeno sauce it wasn't supposed to. Doritos Locos tacos came already broken and half empty, Nachos Bell Grande had low toppings, Beefy Melt only had 2 tortilla strips.. Some locations have good food, but this one either doesn't train their employees or teaches them to put on as little on as possible, very poor management. The kiosks do not include every available option to customize food for allergies, and I prefer the experience of talking to real people, the employees we did interact with were nice and helpful. We pass here frequently and were excited for a new TB but after trying twice we will not be returning.
I come here all the time and I love love love chipotle. I’m a die hard fan. But today I felt really disrespected. Miguel was at the stand and I ordered double chicken. The portion he gave me was less than the normal portion so I asked if he could pls put more. ( I am paying an extra $5 for chicken, He picked up 2 pieces of chicken and put it in my bowl. Everyone else was so nice but him. I ordered 100 dollars worth of chipotle and he didn’t even smile or even say good morning. I was skimped and played today and I don’t appreciate that. Everyone needs to have good customer service cause I’m just supporting. He ruined my morning and everyone else’s food.
The food was average for Taco Bell’s. Chicken, chipotle, burrito, and a bean burrito. They were OK.
Signage on the counter, says to use the kiosk to order.
Two ordering kiosks, but one was not working and the one I used gives you the dining or takeout option and how many hot sauces you want but dining in comes in a bag without hot sauce.
They do have hot sauce and condiments available in the dining area.
The shift leader said they don’t use trays anymore. Everyone’s comes in a bag.
This looks like the new normal for new fast food stores going forward from here.
Obviously still shortstaffed so just be aware and be patient.

Fast and Tasty!
It’s like a Q’doba or Moes. I had the taco salad with chicken and my better half had the huge burrito with chicken. Staff was friendly. Wasn’t busy for a Thursday, thought it would be busier since the Aaron Lewis concert was tonight at Emmens. Plenty of toppings to choose from.
Drink machine was out of root beer so I ended up with a Coke. Place was clean and simple. Menu is simples. Also had the chips and queso. I like my chips with a little more salt. Overall ok. Would eat there again if we were on BSU campus.

Wife got tired of overpaying for underwhelming experiences at fancy restaurants, so after wondering in Prospect Park for hours, she wanted to go home and see what our fridge holds. I offered to find a reasonably priced place and found this little diner. Southwestern theme, lots of mexican dishes plus regular diner fare. Wife had nachos with chicken and I ordered some kind of burger with Russian dressing and selected to go with waffle fries (2.50$ extra) instead of regular fries. Portions were huge, we shared dishes and loved the food. No room for dessert, barely got up from the table as is. Friendly staff, waiter spoke english so he could explain the mexican menu to us. This is a small diner, with usual diner atmosphere, nothing special, nothing negative. All as expected. I appreciated no loud music blasting overhead, so we could relax and eat and talk. Definitely will come back again to try other tasty things.
Always friendly servers here and the food is amazing. They have lots of great American and Mexican choices here. I come here for breakfast often and I'm never disappointed. It's a great place to start of and springboard into the rest of your day!
Large Portions, freshness you can taste , and quick service .
Every time I come to this place , they never disappoint 🙌🏾. Excited to try the Mexican menu . I love the mixed smoothies and fresh juices . This place has become my families favorite , and it’s family owned, which is amazing to know and patronage .
See you next time Laura, Nancy, Jasmine & Carlos . Continue serving up those banger dishes .

I'm from Texas and I can say they have very good Mexican food, but the service is lacking, even though they were not very busy. We arrived early afternoon and it took a while to get drinks served and take the order. Then, when the order came out there were only three meals for the four of us. We waited while they cooked the other order and brought it out. We had a good time and especially enjoyed the soft beef tacos, but we did a lot of waiting. They should have made the fourth meal they forgot complementary, but all they did was say they were sorry it took so long.
Love this place, food is good and most importantly the staff is always nice, patient and smiling. Definitely means alot. I have been here a few times. I have had the western omelet, monte Cristo and the waffles and let's not forget the fresh squeezed orange juice.
I usually go here cause no one go's here and it's quick. But I just got a chicken bowl pick up order with chicken missing. My husband always gets stomach problems. In general it is not as yummy as usual.
If you find yourself in the mood for a Hispanic cuisine that is just outside the beaten path then look no further! I often times forget about Chavas and soon kick myself in the rear each time I bite into my mouth watering, made right in front of your eyes burrito! If you've never been...quit reading this and GO!
Service was very fast but unfortunately the food was less than great. Home fries were bland and the broccoli and cheese omelet was overcooked and under seasoned. All of this would have been easily overlooked if the prices online were actually accurate. Everything was 50%-100% more than what is stated on Google Maps menu, which was disappointing considering the quality of the food.
Overall for a coffee, omlete and eggs Benedict = $35 with tip... I'd recommend another place
