SO AMAZING BEST IN NORCAL BY FAR!! I live 30 min away but I'll drive every two days I'm not kidding. All the meat is so flavorful I love asada and tripas. The sopes are an easy 12/10 if you ever went you would be amazed by the speed, quality, and service. So friendly so quick and the atmosphere is nice. Always clean!!

Was craving a southside El Grullense burrito but was in Lodi so decided to go here since it's pretty much the same thing. Was pretty bummed that they Messed up on our order as well as our friends order. Forgot to add sour cream and cilantro on all of our burritos. A friend ordered a bean and cheese burrito which the cheese wasn't melted and was just thrown on the beans. It was horrible! The fries for the asada fries needed to be cooked a little longer. But as always the asada was flavorful and the hot sauce was on point. Maybe it was just an off day for the cook. Well definitely be back again tho since it's closer to us

This place has the best quality meats and food making skills. Perfect sized menu, nice condiment bar. Bottled beers, Mexican sodas, canned sodas. I'm pretty sure it's family run and they are super nice and the food is consistently good. I'm not kidding when I say I eat here 3-4 times a week because I love the bleep out of their tripa tacos. Their carne asada is always on point and carnitas. Everything including the service. Give it a shot if you're in the area and you will not be disappointed.

Food tastes good my burrito kinda fell apart but that was because they stuffed it full. They tend to go heavy on the onions and the limes were a few days older than I would keep them but they were still good.

I ordered food to go over the phone the gentleman that took my order was had good customer service. The place is small and had quick service took about 15 mins for my food and it was ready at pickup and food was still hot. Ordered asada fries although it didn't have nacho cheese it was still really good. The asada meat is marinated so well. And it was good portion. On Wednesday they have asada fries special with a free soda or water. I ordered a plain taco and side of rice and the rice alone did not taste that good. But definitely worth a try.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I loved the Al pastor supreme burrito. So juicy and flavorful. It's pretty big so it's perfect to chow down and knock out into a nice nap. The place has sauces and toppings that are and for you to load up on your burrito for in house or take out. Staff or friendly as usual. Parking free nearby.
