My favorite place to get an Egg, Bean, and cheese burrito. Make sure you get the red sauce. Their beans and tortillas are the best in the world.

Was in the area with the fam. We were looking for a Mexican rest and thought we'd try this. We were all very impressed. Everyone loved their food. I had #3 combo with chicken enchiladas. It was as good as any bigger more expensive restaurants. Service was excellent. We had 7 in our group and the order was perfect. The young lady taking our order asked questions and clarified our order to be sure it was correct. It made for a great evening out with the fam.
