    Side of Rice and Beans
    Mae L.

    Ordered for delivery! Food arrived and it was still warm so kudos to that! The crispy tacos come in shredded beef/chicken or ground beef and they are topped with lettuce tomatoes and cheese. The tacos were still crispy and the meat juicy and flavorful! This is my usual order and it never disappoints. I have had the shredded chicken as well and can vouch the shredded beef or chicken are the way to go - I've never had the ground beef so can't say much about it. The side of rice and beans topped with cheese are more than enough and I usually share this order. The rice has bits of corn in it, and was cooked perfectly no crunchy bits!

    Chilaquiles Breakfast Plate now. So sad to see

    Shrinkflation has finally hit this beloved restaurant. Check the before and after the price went up and the size went down. I hope it still tastes fine.

    The last few times have been good, but tonight was excellent. Ordered Chicken fajitas and the young lady asked if I wanted salsa, I said no because in the past the mild salsa wasn't that great. She suggested I should since they gave me a bag of tortilla chips so I said yes. The fajitas were great and the salsa is the best it's tasted in years. Keep up the good work and keep this food consisted.

    its supposed to be shredded chicken but you get rough chopped chicken, does not taste good.

    Ordered through the drive through and saw the chicken fajita combo, looks delicious with the pulled chicken but when I opened my to go box it was chopped chicken and had very little flavor or seasoning, very disappointed because their carnitas is delicious and the chicken was a bit tough which is a waste. I would say stick to what you know from here or ask them how it's prepared, the pictures are deceiving.

    Beef enchiladas, asada picada, carnitas burrito
    Jose M.

    Daughter picked this place for her honor roll meal. We've eaten lot of times here before, it's a "fast food" version of good Mexican food. Carnitas burrito- good size and nice filling variety. A lot of places mainly do meat and maybe one other thing (beans or rice). Beef enchiladas-nothing special here but still tasty. Comes with side of rice and beans which is nice Asada picada- basically all the goodies to make tacos. Rice, beans and chopped beef. Comes with 3 tortillas and good portions. Overall, if you're craving classic dishes with better taste than fast food chain restaurants, this is a good place. You won't get anything super special but the food is good and quick.

    Good burritos. I usually order the burrito roco which is the one bathed in red sauce. I like it. Have tried all the meat options for it, grilled chicken, shredded chicken, pork al pastor, etc etc and all were good. My favorite is the al pastor one. Decent horchata too. I like this place since it's fairly good taste/texture/temp/consistency/quantity and convenient to my job location. I do have to report that the bathroom is god-awful smelly every time. As far as the service, most of the gals are friendly and really courteous. Not all however. One seems consistently annoyed by everyone that she waits on. Also, you must ask for utensils and napkins due to some policy otherwise you will not get any so be sure to request them. They allow substitutions, for example, I sub a small (iceberg lettuce) salad for the rice and they are happy to accommodate. Can also choose fries or another portion of beans. Plenty of parking. Always clean interior. Quick service.

    Can't go wrong with delicious tacos on a Tuesday. Staff always friendly and helpful. The restaurant is small but busy every time I come here.

    Divorced eggs! Totally delicious!
    Rudy D.

    Had the divorced eggs here last year. This is the perfect dish! Tortillas topped with over easy eggs separated by homemade refried beans with cheese. Served with corn tortillas and their hot sauce and you have a craving that demands you return! My only suggestion is to avoid the drive through. Only one car ahead of me and still had to wait over 20 minutes. My picture is from last year as I dinned in. Getting it to go wasn't pretty but still delicious. Updated: Divorced eggs on a return trip were not up to par. Yolks were solid. Disappointing

    If you're driving near Nipomo, you have to stop at this place. They offer a large menu of BBQ…read moreoptions, including the area‑famous tri‑tip sandwich. There's also a full bar where you can order local brews, plus a self‑serve condiment bar to customize your meal. The staff was friendly and quick to bring out our food. Seating is plentiful both indoors and outside, with umbrellas for shade. Parking is easy, with spots on the street and in the lot next door. The architecture and décor give the whole place a charming old‑Spanish feel. The food was incredible and will definitely bring us back. The Emmit BBQ Bacon Burger was our favorite. The thick bacon was cooked perfectly, and the onion ring added a great crunch. The patty was cooked medium‑well and packed with flavor. This is one of the best burgers we've ever had. The tri‑tip sandwich was also great. We loved its simplicity and the moist, tender meat with very little fat. The locally made bun really elevated it. They serve BBQ sauce on the side, which paired nicely with the tri‑tip. The 50/50 basket is huge--we didn't expect so much food, but we weren't complaining. The onion rings were excellent. This will be a must‑stop on every trip down to SoCal from now on.

Service was good and quick for a weekday evening. Menu is extensive. Ordered at the counter, sat down with my number and food came within 10 mins. Taco salad was huge and fresh. The tri tip was thin and smokey but a little on the dry side. I noticed some older reviews mentioned a salsa bar but maybe I missed it. Would have loved to mix in some salsa to add just a little moisture to the tri tip. Maybe next time when there's live music along with something from the bar!
