    Great authentic Mexican food, inside a gas station which has become a great popular partnership with mutual benefits. Great customer service and the food is definitely good quality and with good presentation. If you want the real deal, do not be intimidated by the idea of a small gas station, go and give it a try. Small fondita feel with great choices common of a taco stand.

    Don't be fooled by the look of the place. The food is better than most of the nicer looking Mexican restaurants. They have the best refried beans and rice that I know of. The portions are also great, along with the salsa Verde and the tortillas are second best only to El Taco Feliz on south Saunders street.

    Super yummy! Had the rice and carne con chile and tortillas. That was like legit like my moms food. The salsa verde could be better. It was a bit watered down but the food was definitely bomb! And the gorditas also were super delicious!

    This Mexican restaurant is, in my opinion, the best. I typically order the chicken burrito; a simple choice, I realize. However, the authenticity is exceptional. The burrito is generously portioned, and the chicken is notably fresh. After experiencing their chicken burrito, one is unlikely to seek an alternative.

    Would love to give them 5 stars but, after paying $8 for so little rice I was disappointed. I only wanted rice and beans to go with some food i already had at home. Once I got home I opened the container and was a little disappointed with the amount of rice and beans provided. Granted that’s all I ordered but they could of added more rice to the platter

    The ratings should be based mostly on the food. I didn't give it 5 stars just because it is inside a gas station, and the cashier should smile more often. They are not rude, so l am not sure what is wrong with the people that gave it 3 or less stars. I grew up in Mexico and this is authentic and delicious home-made Mexican food. Definitely a hidden gem!
