    Steak bowl
    Iris D.

    This is the 3rd time I've eaten here. It's flavorful and delicious every time! My favorite is the chicken and steak bowl. I will be trying more of the menu as well. Great customer service and fun atmosphere!

    Street tacos

    The food was excellent. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants real Mexican. The street tacos were excellent. Very authentic. Highly recommended. Way better than taco boy down the road. Can't even compare the two.

    Carnitas, chile verde carnitas, chicken, and birria tacos
    John Y.

    This place has the best pork tacos in town! Extremely juicy, tender and delicious. The chicken was great as well but didn't think the birria was as good. The hard tacos were more similar to soft in my opinion but were very fresh and cooked on a flat top grill. They have a quick and efficient food preparation system, similar to chipotle where you move down the line and a different person handles the taco shell, meat, and vegetables. They also have a nice a salsa bar with to-go containers set out.

    Single Street Taco

    My husband and I split 4 tacos for $14. They were loaded with fresh ingredients and it came with free chips. There is also a great salsa bar. Service was quick and easy. Clean, inviting atmosphere.

    Two soft tacos with chicken.
    Holly N.

    Have been here several times and the food is always fresh, delicious, and plentiful. I usually get two tacos and have enough leftovers to make two more at home! The salsa bar is great, as it has a lot to choose from. The staff is super friendly and is happy to walk you through the menu. You get a lot of food for the price!

    I was able to feed six people here for $100...if I had taken them to Five Guys it would have been…read moreat least $700. We actually picked this place at random when we went to a local pizza place down a dirt road that sold out by 6pm...gonna have to make sure we make it back there next time for sure. However, this place was a pleasant surprise. Menu is a bit intimidating, just pick some items and go and you'll be fine. It's one of those "order while standing up and then we'll bring your food out while you get your own drinks" type of places which I'm not a huge fan of. I got the Sunny Side burger...somehow or maybe I built one, can't remember. I remember being sad I forgot to get bacon especially after trying my girlfriend's bacon from her burger....GET THE BACON!!! IT'S NOT CRAPPY BACON BUT AMAZING!! They were able to accommodate her gluten allergy with a gluten-free bun but the fries could have cross-contamination as there is not a dedicated gluten-free fryer. She risked it anyways and for good reason (also she never got sick but your results and sensitivity may vary!), she wanted these jalapeño bacon cheese fries and wow were they good! They had picked onions on them which seemed odd but it worked...it worked really well. I couldn't stop eating her fries. As far as fries go...not everyone needs to order them. They give you way too many, not Five Guys too many, but way too many for an average eater with a big fat burger. Not one person in our group finished their burger and fries. If I was home I would have taken them home to my chickens and I don't think even they could finish them all in one sitting. The other thing I didn't like was how they do seating...I had to sit at the bar with my kids because all of the tables were taken up by 1 or 2 people when they could seat six. We saw several people come in after us and one person from their group would go claim a table while their group was in line ordering, preventing the people ordering ahead of them from finding a spot. Having a hostess seat people would make this place five stars.

The staff were incredibly friendly, the food came out quickly, and everything was absolutely delicious. Because of how wonderful our first visit was, we made it a point to stop again on our way back home. It did not disappoint! Consistency like that really stands out.

Georgia also deserves a special shoutout for her kindness, for serving us sweet tea with a smile, and for keeping the space clean and welcoming.

Today I found myself near the one local store we hvae in Asheville, so I headed over there for a late lunch. For getting there at 2pm I was surprised the parking lot was so full - usually a good sign. There was a very short line, my wait to order was less than 3 minutes. the store was exceedingly clean and the staff was very friendly. I ordered a bacon deluxe, onion rings, and a caramel shake, then found a booth in a quiet corner. My lunch was delivered surprisingly quickly for having been cooked to order. My burger was great. The meat was tasty and well cooked, the bacon still had a bit of chew to it rather than being overly crisped, the tomato was good, the lettuce had some crunch. Best true fast food burger I've had in some time. A definite 5. The onion rings were good but not great. Crispy outside, but not much onion inside. The shake was very good, tasty, and about as thick as you can yet without needing a spoon. If it was closer to my house than a 30 minute drive I would be a regular customer. I'll certainly keep my eyes open for their restaurants in my travels. Wish I could give 4 1/2 stars, it was definitely better than a 4, but not quite a 5.
