We are from out of town. Went to this restaurant and thought that the food and customer service was amazing. And only $3 for ANY beer. I highly recommend.

Taxes charged if you order online are more than 19% (i.e $13.50 burrito has $2.58 tax). Automatic tip put in without the ability to remove it. There is no reason I should have to tip what you deem the correct amount, when I am picking up the food and do not have a server of any type. Way too much of a jip.

What business decides they are going to randomly close an hour early before closing time?!? What a joke. Refused to sit us.

I had a taco salad last night with no meat and beans and I got food poisoning from the food. All I ate was a taco salad which mainly had just lettuce and beans and chips and salsa.I have only had food poisoning a few times in my life. Please consider this before eating here. I will never eat there again.

Last year I stopped in this little restaurant while making a drive down the pacific coast highway and I still catch myself thinking about the California Burrito that I got. Hands down the best Burrito I’ve ever eaten in my life. I’ve considered flying back across the country just to stop in and grab another. 10/10

One of my favorites! I was blown away by the lunch specials. I got a massive serving of carnitas for under $10. They get very busy and the service can be slow, but it's worth the wait.
