Don’t let the outside of this place scare you away. The chicken is sooo good. It’s juicy and very affordable. They also have great drink options and the service is great.
My husband and I were in town from GA and it was the most delicious food we have had since moving from TX to GA. The staff is so nice and they were so helpful in figuring out how much we needed to buy for our family for a to go order. I had the horchata coffee and I’m still craving it. It was so good!!!!! And the chicken was delicious. Asada had good flavor but just wish it had a little more meat for the price. Overall excellent experience. We dined there again the following day. We order a Michelada and it tasted so good!!! Margarita was okay. And my husband ordered a cantarito and it was delicious. Will be visit again when I’m back in town.
I visited this restaurant, and the food was absolutely amazing. But what truly made my experience memorable was the cashier, Eva. She was not only friendly but also incredibly patient with me as I struggled to decide what to order. Despite my indecision, Eva offered me some great suggestions, and I ended up choosing something I really liked. I highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely go back!
