    Stopped by for breakfast burritos. Without a doubt, the best I have had in the county. Takes me…read moreback to when I was working in El Paso and Las Cruces New Mexico. The staff were very friendly, the store and restaurant were very clean. We will be back.

    I'm a 71 years young Yelper and I just inhaled the best Breakfast Burrito of my life!…read more I've been to this gas station/convenience store/restaurant several times for lunch. Folks kept telling me about the amazing Chorizo Breakfast Burrito, so I finally stopped in the morning to give it a go. This is that story. Arriving- It's on US Route 27 South and you can't miss it as the restaurant name is emblazoned on the canopy. See my picture. Parking is easy and if you have the need there are two handicapped spaces around the back near a second entrance. Ambience- The convenience store/restaurant is in the back and kind of combined. There are acres of cooler doors with every drink you can imagine including beer & wine. Just grab what you want to drink with your meal. Don't worry, you pay when you're finished. There is a bright and spotless dining area with a bunch of tables & booths. See my picture. Pro Tip- I'm a gringo and if you are also, you will be in the minority. Don't panic, you'll be made to feel very welcome! Food- This is an order at the window kind of place. There are some menus on the wall but not everything is included. Just ask. So, I asked for the famous Chorizo Breakfast Burrito- "Small or large? Small please." "Would you also like Beef & Cheese? Hell yes!" "Here or to-go? Here please." "What color sauce? Red please." Less than five minutes later it was ready and plated beautifully. Not too shabby for a gas station! Pro Tip- They make their own tortillas year daily! OMG I was in love! It was piping hot, and the aroma was incredible. It was very dense in a good way. This was the small and it was very filling. The chorizo was wonderful and spicy so expect that. I could also taste the melted cheese. It was one hell of a breakfast. The large size would have been too big for a morning meal for me. It was $5.99 and I'd added a Starbucks drink out of the cooler. My total tab was $8 and change. Yelp reviews originally clued me into this place and as a result, I had a five-star simple and memorable breakfast!

    Highlands County is agricultural which in FL often means citrus which means a large Hispanic…read morecommunity to work in the groves. I live here and we have dozens of delightful, small privately-owned Mexican restaurants of which this is one. Arriving- Facing Main Street with an adequate private lot so getting here and parking is a snap. Ambience- Not much but that's not why you're here. Like most of these joints it's a combo of a small store and a restaurant. A few tables and booths, an open kitchen, and a little Florida kitsch and that's it! The customers will be mostly Hispanic but a gringo like me will feel completely welcome. The Television will almost certainly be on a Hispanic channel. Note that this is one of the very few small Mexican joints that has table service! Adult Libations- Somewhere along the way they acquired a beer & wine license so be sure to grab a Corona or a Modelo to go with your meal. It will be served with an interesting bottle opener that you can see in my picture. Customer Service- Friendly and efficient and I've never had a problem. Food- A large, laminated menu with everything you would expect. Beef, chicken, pork, or shrimp, it's all there, Mexican style. I went with Carnitas served with rice and beans and a small side salad. It included my choice of flour or corn tortillas for $12.99. It was out very quickly. Delicious! The pork was moist, tender, and lightly seasoned with some sauce on the side. The rice and beans were hot and typical and tasty. The side salad was fresh, and my tortillas were nice and hot. A fine four-star Mexican meal that was very affordable. These fine folks are overshadowed by a hugely successful competitor a stones throw away. So, if you are sick of the giant Americanized Mexican places, give them a try, especially if you desire table service!

    Great food. I had the Bistec Rancheria and had them put jalapenos instead of bell pepper…read more Amazing!!! My wife had the chicken flautas and said they were also amazing. Service from the waitress/cashier was also amazing. Don't let the appearance of the dining room turn you away. It is nothing fancy but very clean. Highly recommended!

    So, I grabbed a Medium Asada Burrito with everything, brought it home and popped it on my kitchen…read morescale. Up came 1.2 pounds! Sounded like a great lunch to me but more about that later. Arriving- These fine folks are on a side street in teeny tiny Avon Park, but your GPS will take you there and you will find easy parking. Ambience- This is one of countless Mexican markets in this part of the state. Like most of them, it is part store and part mostly takeout restaurant. There are a few tables, but most folks just sit there to wait for their takeout orders. English is the 2nd language here but communicating is no problem. Customer Service- As it's takeout, the person that takes your order will turn around to the tiny visible kitchen and grill and prepare your order with long practiced efficiency. I've never had a problem. Food- A very limited menu with burritos, tacos, and some kind of plated daily special. The burritos are the star of the show here and very popular. Note- Don't panic if you see ambulances and multiple law enforcement vehicles in the parking lot. Those folks are experts at finding great takeout food! So, like I said, a 1.2-pound Medium Asada Burrito made it home. I've been coming here for years, and that bad boy was its usual awesome, filling, behemoth of a burrito. It cost me 8 bucks and change, and everything was fresh. The only downside is they are so packed with stuff that it can sometimes be difficult to eat. Everyone needs a place or two to have a great 4-star takeout lunch and this is high on my list when I want Mexican.

    The people making the food do not follow the basic health dept guidelines. They are not able to…read moremake burritos or tacos without putting their hands all over your food. Disgusting!
