Pulled in to this restaurant not knowing what to expect. Ordered quesabirria tacos, chorizo tacos and Al pastor tacos. Absolutely incredible taste with every bite. The quesabirria tacos were out of this world. 10/10 would recommend to anyone in the area

Great Mexican food for a quick lunch. Order at the counter, get your own drink and a few extra yummy salsas.

The food is good. But the prices are ridiculous expensive. Almost 5 dollars for a single taco.

The food was excellent, fresh, and the service was exceptional! We came during a slow period of the day and everything tasted and looked like it had just been made. The portions were very large and everyone was so nice. We were just traveling through but it is definitely a place we will come back to when visiting the area again.

Loved it. We chose the bowls and they were satisfying and delicious. This is a counter service restaurant which means you order at the counter & then go find a seat and they will bring your meal to your table. Their chips and salsa were perfect.

We should have known by having "express" in the name that this place is like a moes. You walk up and order. However it's much more expensive. We got 1 bowl, 1 burrito and 1 drink and it was $34. The food was good but they upcharge for getting a meat other than chicken pretty much. Also upcharge for pico de gallo, queso, avacado or guac... pretty typical these days i guess. The portion is tiny. The bowl that at got is super small and the put half a spoon of stuff in your burrito or bowl. Nothing special but it's good. Would return

I recently had the pleasure of dining at this amazing place and I have to say, I was blown away by the entire experience! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm and friendly smiles from the staff. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting! But let's talk about the food - oh my goodness, it was delicious! Everything is bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. I was impressed by the variety of options on the menu, catering to different tastes and dietary preferences. It's rare to find a place that can please everyone, but this place did it.Aside from the amazing food, the staff was a major highlight of my visit. They were attentive, and knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that my dining experience was top-notch. They were also very accommodating to any special requests I had, making me feel like a valued customer. One thing I appreciate about this place is its commitment to providing quality food and service. It's evident that they take pride in what they do and it reflects in the overall experience. In conclusion, if you're looking for an awesome place to dine, look no further! The food, the staff, and the atmosphere all come together to create an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I will be back!Kid-friendliness: They were so kind to my brother! They were super helpfull with a 3 year old trying to make his own bowl!!

Pretty darn good Mexican food. Not really a restaurant per say. All food is pre made in heat trays. Make your order on spot. Very tasty though. Good prices.
