I really like the marinated steak here. It is not dry because the meat is soaked in these cafeteria type metal containers filled with sauce and meat. For lunch, I had their super steak burrito $9.80 + $1.40 guacamole + $.95 sour cream = $12.15. The cheese, guac and sour cream cost extra. Chips are $.75 and does not come with a super burrito purchase. Service was friendly. I wish they had a salsa bar. I sometimes likes to dipping my burritos in a random hot sauce and get that burn. It is not available here.

This is consistently my favorite place for lunch. Delicious, healthy, speedy, friendly, reasonable. I'd go here every day if I could.

Some of the BEST burritos I've ever had! The carnitas are out of this world. Awesome flavor. Even better prices. Reg burrito is ~$8. Helpful and friendly employees and CHILL vibes all around. If you're looking for good Mexican food in the City, come here.
