A nice and clean restaurant with polite and pleasant staff. We had the chicken tacos and skirt steak burritos. Everything was hot, fresh and seasoned very well. The sauces were also very tasty. Will definitely return to try other items on the menu.

This place is pretty good. It's not like out of this world chicken that will blow your mind or anything. But everything was fresh and tasted pretty good. I liked the rice and beans and the roasted peppers. The salsa was very garlicky, but it wasn't bad. I will probably go back.
