This is no Taco Bell Gordito

by isarevic

I'm generally not a fan of Mexican food, but this place is an exception. While it looks like a fast food place, there is nothing "fast food" about it. The quality of the entrees is exceptional, and the dishes are very creative and tasty. Gorditos are, of course, the house special, and they are awesome. Recommended to both Mexican food lovers and non-lovers alike.

The tortas (mexican sandwich) are awesome. I tried beef and chicken. Breakfast was pretty good also - scrambled eggs and hash browns. I am mostly impressed by how fresh the food is every time. Really great alternative to tasteless fast food.

  • Pros: Food, Quick Service, Great price.
  • Cons: Far for me.
