"At first the place was meh cause some staff members but now they greet you. The food is awesome but sometimes on the panchos the meat tastes like it was reheated and mixed with fresh meat. Sometimes the meat tastes like beef jerky. I haven't gotten sick so thats a plus. The tacos are pretty good too but the tortas are my favorite. Staff members keep it up with the positive vibes, yall are awesome and Jesus loves yall"
