The tortas here are amazing! We ordered the torta cubana and chicken milanesa. I only go to this location when I am craving a torta. It is easily better than most taco trucks. The servers here are also very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this location for real mexican flavor.

Best Mexican food I have found in NC and the prices are very reasonable! Prices start at just over $8. Waitresses are all very kind and do a great job. I eat there once a week. Manager is also a very attentive and pleasant chap. Give it a try! Jack

My boyfriend and I frequent this place often and have loved our experience every single time. Wanted to shout out our most recent waitress, Sarah, who gave 10/10 service and had the bubbliest personality!!

This place is delicious. Great food for very fair prices, portions are huge. It's your local, solid, Mexican spot that doesn't disappoint. The staff is always very friendly, the manager/owner does a great job. To give an example: I ordered takeout and got not even 1 minute down the road and they called to let me know they forgot something. To fix an error before I even knew of it is impressive. Give it a shot!!

nice place to stop by and get a yummy, filling lunch for a really good price. they also have free chips and salsa which is always a plus. they also had some of the best tortillas i have ever tasted, and multiple people in my group agreed. the food came at a timely manner too considering we went during the lunch rush. really nice service too!

Was working close and decided to try this restraunt for lunch. It seemed to be a bit dated inside. Was greeted right away and seated. The service and food were both pretty good. Big menu to choose from. They offer a big lunch menu and combinations to choose from. Also, offer a dinner menu as well. Pretty good Mexican restraunt.
