| - This place is one of my favorite lunch spots in Tempe. When I don't feel like a heavy lunch and not pay 5 bucks for a salad, this is a happy medium.
First let me warn you, cash only. If you don't have any, you get the walk of shame to the nearest ATM.
I have been told that the Carne Asada is good but I can only review based upon the chicken. I always go there and get a 1/4 chicken plate. This comes with 2 pieces of chicken, either a thigh and drumstick or a wing and breast. But like I said, the servings are just right. The order comes with pickled onions, beans, house made salsa, and fresh tortillas. Be careful though, the chicken is fresh off the grill and the tortillas are piping hot.
In Hawaii, they serve something called Huli Huli Chicken. Google it. Basically rotisserie chicken but not in an oven but over a charcoal fire. This is as good and tasty. And I gotta give it up for the tortillas. These are the best I have ever had. Just the right burnt crispiness to it but yet not chewy that I have to fight it when I bite.
When you first get to this place, you might question the location and the inside. But sometimes, those are the best places. The lady at the front counter is always helpful and will be happy to explain what you get. And the price, you can't beat. It is hard to find a lunch under 6 dollars that will fill you up like that.
Again, I will warn you....Bring Cash!!!
