This is my favorite restaurant to eat from. They're amazing and have the best food ever! My favorite from here is the arroz con pollo and I honestly recommend it 100%! Plus the portions are very large for the price so you get a lot for your money.

Hands down the BEST tacos I've ever eaten! Taco with Extra Toppings [Tacos] they overload toppings and they're only 15 cents extra! And my kids love the Taquitos Solo FOR basically $1!! Forever going to be a customer!

If you need an extra side to split between two people, order the Arroz Con Cheese Dip/ Mexican rice w/ cheese. Very generous portion and tasty fresh rice, NOT the dry Walmart shelf rice some places might serve.
