This restaurant is a fave for their breakfast burritos and their Birria tacos are the best. Breakfast burritos with ham, egg, beans and cheese are excellent at this restaurant. Excellent! 5/5 Birria tacos are the best tasting, best value, and tickle my comfort zone with delicious beef and consommé. 5/5 If you are in the Athens area, please stop by and try their foods. They are delicious, freshly made and not super spicy. You can add spice if you like. Please stop by and give this locally owned restaurant a visit soon. 5/5

The inside is half devoted to their…read moreice cream and the other half is the taqueria and it visibly changes ambiance in the middle of the room. Nothing terrible, but an interesting vibe nonetheless. The people working here are extremely friendly and helpful. They definitely added to the overall experience. I kind of expected more of a Mexican restaurant vibe, but this is more a fast-food or quick service restaurant vibe. Again, nothing wrong with it, but a realistic statement and being a fast-food or quick service restaurant actually elevated them to five stars because I judged them by that standard. The prices are very good. I went with a burrito and was generally pleased. It was about ten dollars before tax and all. If you are in the area, give them a try. I.do not think you will be disappointed.

Are they crispy, yes, are they fresh, I'm not sure. A month ago I thought the chips tasted slightly off and figured it was just that the grease was in need of changing. I didn't think it would be the same today. Unfortunately, same exact taste. It ruins the rest of the meal for me. I love eating my food with the chips. Needless to say, my food is going into the fridge tonight and the chips into the trash.

Chips never went empty and food came out pretty quick considering we came in during the rush. Had the Queso Birra tacos and the Hawaiian quesadilla. Both were very good. My wife said that quesadilla was the best she ever had. Finished it off with the chimi cheesecake. Prices were pretty reasonable to boot. Check this place out.

Right away the vibe felt right -- ESPN on the screens, good music, and you can tell it's a family-run spot that takes pride in what they do. The awards for best Mexican restaurant in Limestone County over the years definitely show. The salsa was fresh and really good, and I had seen a review about the quesadilla cheese pull... it lived up to it. Rice and beans were solid, and the cold Modelo in a chilled glass with fresh lime hit perfectly. Prices on the lunch menu are reasonable, which makes it an easy spot to come back to. Service was good overall. Really enjoyed it and looking forward to trying more next time.
