They microwaved my enchilads which was weird, but anyways the biggest issue is every time I order online it says pickup ready in 15 minutes. No matter when I get there, they start the order only after I arrive, every time. And every time they say it's about to come out, but dude, it's an open kitchen, I can literally see you starting the order now.

I asked for no guacamole because I’m allergic to avocados. Instead they gave me extra guacamole. I went back and told them about this issue and they refused to remake my order.

Employee refused to wash his hand. I witnessed employee on his cell phone, run his hand in his hair, rub his face and then went behind the counter to make my food. He put on one glove and preceded to make my food with the assist of the dirty bare hand. I asked female employee to ask him to wash his hand. When she did ,he went off. Yelling and screaming at me. saying I was discriminating him. The female worker remade my food but the whole time she was making it he was yelling Spanish in the back, than came to the front still complaining in Spanish. Never once washed his hand. The female apologized profusely I told her it was not her fault. I really liked this restaurant but I will not be going back. Makes me wonder how many other people's food this man is preparing.

I go for the chimichanga. I haven't had too much else from the menu, but when I want a chimichanga I know where I'm going! I got the barbacoa which was a good choice and the spicy guac was delish.

Honestly, I've given this place 3 chances to make a good impression on me. Every time the service is great. The staff is friendly, but they always forget something from my order. This time they missed 2 tacos and my horchata. Plus, the food just isn't very good. The fajitas were chewy, the chile relleno (which we were asked if we wanted to try "spicy" chicken) was overstuffed and lukewarm. Plus, the spicy chicken turned out to be just a bunch of chicken tinga and the salsa was watered down. I won't be coming here again. There is a bomb taco truck in the Robbinsdale city center that's cheaper plus the food is fire. Just get your Mexican food fix there.P.s. My partner says the tacos were good.

Best Mexican food in the area and the prices are cheaper than most fast food nowadays. You can get a quesadilla here for less than chipotle’s tiny quesadillas and it’s absolutely stacked full of meat and cheese.
