    I've been coming here since 1992…read more. This place has been one of my favorites for years, and for good reason: the food flat-out delivers. The pork tacos are excellent, the buffet is a beautiful exercise in self-control failure, and the three enchilada plate is always a solid choice. Truthfully, it's all really good. What makes it even better is the people. Alex, Javier, and Sadie bring a fun energy that makes the whole place feel alive. Great food is one thing, but when the staff makes the atmosphere this enjoyable, it keeps you coming back. So go hungry, have a beer... or marigita, relax, and enjoy yourself. This place isn't just good - it's the kind of place you keep in your regular rotation for decades.

    Sign outside lured us in. Said, "$13.99 Buffet with Drink." Turns out that if u watch long enough,…read moreit adds ONE PLATE. An obvious deceptive lure since most don't see this (we didnt). Regardless, after 15 minutes we finally got our buffet plates, then another 7min to get food on our plates (can't serve yourself). We were never asked if we wanted the one plate buffet or All-you-can-eat, and assumed the $13.99 price. We all got our bills, and each plate was around $20. The waiter then told us the lower price was for one plate only. In my case I did actually only have one plate and asked if he'd fix my bill. He said, "No. You have to tell me at the beginning." I said, "I was never told any options." He said, "I can't change your bill now." So the outside sign is deceptive, the waiter never clarifies the options when ordering, so both owner & waiter are at fault. No tip! I need more integrity from this restaurant and the waiters. Likely won't come back. Honesty is important to me, and the service timing was very subpar.

    I'd been eyeing this place for months and finally made it happen with a double date night out. A…read morelittle out of the way for me, but I'll always make the drive for a food truck concept that's leveled up to brick and mortar. The interior nails that Southern Cali college town energy with retro decor and good music at a volume where you can actually hold a conversation. Temperature was perfect, staff was warm and helpful, and the vibe overall just works. My wife and I had hoped to split a "Biggy" burrito, but our protein preferences don't overlap, so we each ended up with our own "Pee-Wee." No custom halves here, which cost us an extra $4.50 and left me feeling like we got less food total than a shared Biggy would have given us. If you have any appetite at all, size up. My steak Ol' Skool burrito was solid, though I made the mistake of going with the mild sauce. It needed more heat to really bring it together. The fries-in-the-burrito thing also isn't really my style. I'm more of a beans, rice, and fresh lime squeeze kind of guy, so I came away a little underwhelmed on that front. But that's a taste preference, not a knock on the place. Worth a visit, no question. Just come hungry, go spicy, and know whether you're a fries-in-your-burrito person before you order.
