    Love this little taco place on Lincoln Ave! Their Barbacoa Taco is tasty as heck and if you pair it with the cosume, it is a whole new dish. We also got the chicken taco, very delicious. Highly recommend for Taco Tuesday

    New restaurant of the week led me here only because I drive past it all the time and I have never stopped but that changed today. This used to be the old blue boy ice cream stand and for a while a food truck was on the property which was temporary because now the food truck is gone and the building is up and running. The building has a weird angle roof that over hangs with take out windows so no indoor dining but a small patio on the side. Service is just like the truck because you place your order at the window and they call you when it's ready. I ordered the steak burrito Steve style with added cilantro and onions which takes the burrito to the next level, try it some time. The burrito came quick and the bag was filled and heavy I thought. My burrito came with a green and brown sauce, cucumbers and lime wedges. My burrito came with lettuce, beans, sour creme, cheese, cilantro and onions. The burrito was $8.50 and the hugest/large, I can't recall the last time I had a burrito this big. The burrito was tasty with a nice amount of steak but the steak was not seasoned. The cilantro and onion flavors can take a burrito not seasoning well past the finish line and make up for little short comings. I actually liked both sauces and the brown being the hotter one. I'm not saying It's the best steak burrito but at the $8.50 price point vs size/value vs tastiness with the added cilantro/onion it's pretty good. I have 2 go to burrito places, the charbroiled skirt steak very far from me so inconvenient and the around my neighborhood truck and I think this place is tastier so my neighborhood truck has been toppled after all these years with the new kid in town. Yah this will be my close go to place when I'm not trying new places now, hell my favorite gyro place form10 years got toppled by the new kid in town so it happens on my quest to try new places.

    Food is amazing. Service is nice and somewhat quick would recommend and eat again. My issue with this place is I order the same thing everytime I call in an order for pickup, why am I getting different prices almost everytime I come to pick it up?! They change the prices to whatever they feel like this they day and it's frustrating. Paid $20 one day and $25 the next. WTF?!

    The service was really bad, girl taking the order. She was very rude. Not friendly at all. I don't think I'm coming back to this place ever

Tortillas were crispy and fried to perfection. The consommé was delicious, had me drinking it straight out the cup and was well seasoned, hot, and was in its own something to right about. The red and green salsas were also good. Red having a bit of kick, green was flavorful. I will say that I wish one of them had more heat to it but the acidity and flavors were great. The beef itself was so flavorful and tender, well seasoned, not to mention had the perfect amount in each item. Also, Onions and peppers on the side were cooked great and had me going back for more each time. Also, get the horchata, it was spectacular. This place is small but decorated to really feel like the owners, workers, really care and take pride in the establishment. It had a great ambiance that was full of people on a rainy lunch hour, and I can see why. As a person who works in the industry as a cook, the kitchen, which you can see when you order is neat, clean, and truly has the right feel of 'they know what they're doing and they're doing it well'. 5 stars, will be talking about this meal for a long time and spreading the recommendation to as many people as I can.

    This was the new restaurant of the week that's about 1 year old and replaced the previous Mexican…read morerestaurant that I wasn't fond of and I'm tired of one review and limited pictures of the food so guess what time it is, it's Steve stop by time. Honestly with all the restaurants I go to I don't remember if the interior has changed from the previous restaurant but it's fresh/clean looking with a nice little bar on the side. My service was excellent and I was seated right away with chips, salsa, water and a menu. The chips were warm, thin, fresh, crisp and seasoned nicely with a nice corn taste that was the quintessential corn chips for salsa in my opinion. The salsa was fresh with crisp/chunky vegetables and once again what in my opinion makes for a perfect salsa with a heat not detectable to my pallet but my nose was slightly running which was odd because my mouth was not hot, maybe all the hot and spicy food that I eat all the time has numbed me. I would do a menu item that I never do which was breakfast for lunch that was the chilaquiles plate with steak. It's two eggs cooked hard, thin steak, beans , tortillas sautéed in sauce topped with cilantro, onions and sour cream. The plate looked amazing and a huge portion by the way. The beans were loose with whole beans and topped with shredded cheese. The eggs tasted fresh, cooked over hard. The thin steak had a slight grill flavor. The sautéd tortillas I opted for the red sauce was delicious with the thick red sauce covered in cilantro, onion and sour cream that was delicious and the star of the plate. Overall was it the best Mexican food that I have had, no and the particular plate you order can affect a review in the end but I will say I have a new fondness for Mexican breakfast. Overall my breakfast for lunch was very good even though it wasn't seasoned like the chips but it was a better experience than my review for the last place 12 years ago and I would actually go back to the new restaurant vs the old that was once and done.
