I haven't had tacos like this; my husband had a carne asada torta. It was so delicious. Highly recommend this place; it is not fancy but the cooking should be rated 5

It was a little dark inside and we had a cheap light over our table. A car's window glared and killed my eyes while sitting at the table. I ordered the burrito deluxe.

Had the chicken burrito with pinto beans food was good. This is coming from someone who don't eat gas station food but the food was really good, you can tell they take pride in their food.

Let's start with the positives: 1- the service. 5 stars!!…read moreOur server was just incredible. He was genuine, helpful, kind. Wonderful wonderful wonderful service. 2- location. Right off the interstate and by a gas station. Perfect for a quick stop from traveling. 3- the salsa tastes fresh. Very yummy. Now, onto the negatives which pulled me down into 3 stars. 1- the food is pretty bland. 2- tortillas are pretty rubbery. 3- white cheese dip is consistency of water. 4- the little amount of chicken you get in the fajitas is laughable. Listen, maybe this is the best food in town. I don't know, we were passing through on travel. But I must say, we wouldn't stop again, except to get some chips and salsa, a beer and say hi to our nice server. But to fill up on a delicious meal.... Ehhh... we'd be just about as lucky as stopping at the gas station next door and trying out their fried food and a bag of chips. Maybe you'll get luckier than us. God speed.

There was a salad bar with all the toppings for our meal. The carnitas were moist, falling apart tender, and just spicy enough. The barbacoa was shredded. Tasty too!

The interior was very dirty and sparse. There was a small cafeteria warming table in the back where you place your order. The food looked very unappetizing. Dried out and covered with tin foil.

Both the service and the food bely the humble exterior and interior. The inside is Spartan with just a few tables, but the service couldn't be better. For lunch, I had Melecio's Quesadilla with Chorizo, served with rice & beans. My wife had Three Soft Shell Tacos with Steak and a side order of rice. Both meals were outstanding, and truly authentic. No fancy presentation here as the meals are served in "to-go" containers with a plastic spoon. When we were there, every table (all 5 of them!) were occupied entirely by locals, except for us. This is actually a 4-star place, but I'm giving it 5 stars because we both liked it so much! Location: 4 stars Food: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Value: 4 stars Ambiance/Décor: 3 stars
