| - The proverbial hole-in-the-wall:
My co-worker and I was originally there to provide support. When we got here, there was ample free parking adjacent to the building. At first, we weren't sure we were at the right building because the exterior looked like a bar that was in need of a facelift. Nevertheless, we walked towards the entrance facing the main road, and went inside.
I had brought a lunch that day, but I came away with a taco. Because I HAD to.
How it works:
This place offers a number of different meats: carne asada, barbacoa, pechuga de pollo (chicken breast). You then choose what type of dish you want: tacos, burritos, quesadillas, or tortas. I chose a single carne asada taco and my friend ordered a carne en salsa verde burrito. You can choose to add beans, rice, and/or cheese for an additional charge.
From there, you get your dish without any toppings and head over to the salsa/salad bar to choose whatever you'd like. You then bring it back to the counter and they wrap it for you. We were getting it to go, so they wrapped by taco in some plastic. My friend brought his unwrapped burrito back to the counter so that they could finish putting it together.
Service: everybody we interacted with were super friendly. I think the owner was the person who greeted us. They were excellent burrito wrappers too.
Food: Everything tasted very fresh. The salsa/salad bar was clean and nothing looked like it had been sitting for more than a couple hours in the chilled compartments. The meats were really tasty too!
Price: It's not the cheapest Mexican place, but you get what you pay for in terms of the quality of food.
I'll be back for lunch.
