Not sure if I ever really given a place to find stars that this place comes very close to it. It's gone through several management changes and within the last year a remodel which has been a definite Improvement. The quality of the food is pretty consistent can't beat the homemade tortillas and I don't think I've ever walked out of there hungry :-) my favorite has to be the shredded beef and pork. And as far as I'm concerned the salsa is excellent. An honorable mention oddly enough is the ice machine. I've always been a fan of the small cylindrical worm-like ice cubes soft to chew. I love chewing ice. Bottom line i recommend going and would suggest trying there quesadilla with your choice of meat. Don't forget the guacamole and sour cream.

Hand made tortillas. You pick ingredients. This location is popular weekday lunch time. Tacos are also very good. Generous portions. Loyalty program earns free meals. No table service.

Came here for taco Tuesday. Great deals. Long line, but worth it. I don't eat carbs, so I told the worker to just throw in the meat and veggies with cheese and salsa. Meat had a lot of flavor and it was perfect.

The food is very delicious! The tortillas are made in front of you and all the ingredients are there for your choosing. Went during lunch but the waiting was not bad and gave us time to see menu and daily specials. We will be back 👍👍👍

Amazing food! Gives you that "home cooked" by grandma" feel. Eaten here many times and never had anything i didn't love. If i had to be picky I'd say it can get expensive but you get what you pay for, so there's value in that.
