see update below Well, overall this location is okay. The staff usually are on the ball for the most part, but they forgot two items in our order today (we should have checked the bag more closely) and the items that were there weren't as we ordered them. We were on our way home and just wanted to get and go quickly so.. but they shouldn't be screwing up like that anyways. But the drive thru lady was nice and all that. They keep the place pretty clean. It's well lit up as well. Parking is plentiful so no worries there. Just disappointed a bit. Food was pretty good despite being wrong. I'll be going there again so yeah I recommend this one. Update The company (the manager especially) reached out to me(us) and took care of the matter very professionally, and was gracious in how they compensated. Very nice to see that, especially in this messed up world we live in today. Thank you for that. Definitely respect

So went to try their new Gorditas that my son mentioned they have. We got the steak and chicken guacamole. Over all very tasty but could have used a bit more meat for the price. I got more tomato than anything, hopefully you can see that in pictures. Spent about 28$ for both meals. I do really like their fries! Associate was friendly and they did give me plenty of hot sauce, i use it on everything.

After breaking a leg & and following up with the doctor, it was late & we were not in the mood to cook. In looking for nearby fast food & the online menus, we spotted the Epic Fresh Guacamole Burrito with carne asada, which we purchased. After a motorcycle trip to Mexico, I thought I'd never visit a fast food Mexican restaurant. This great burrito changed my mind.
