    4.5 stars but rounded up for service. They have a lunch special everyday. Quality is consistent and great and their salsa bar is legit. Owners are super nice, bilingual and very hard working. Workers are great too. They have a few indoor seats and a covered patio outside. Parking is ample but they r busy so u may have to get ur steps in during lunch rush. I love their quesadillas and they have cherry coke. Not a lot of restaurants have cherry coke but orange bang, pina colada and horchata baby. I stop by here whenever I’m in the area, usually after stopping by Roger dunn.

    Love their pescado burritos with their fresh salsa bar. Would rank their salsa the best compared to any other restaurant hands down. If you're in the area, just try their salsa.
