| - It's good, not great.
I've tried it a few times, one dine in, one ubereats (delivery), and one time takeout,
The guacamole is OK, somewhat bland could probably use a little more lime/salt. The portion isn't that big either for the $6 price tag (for the appetizer version). It's about the same price as chipotle when it comes to price for volume, and I think chipotle charges too much for guacamole.
Everyone always compares these places to chipotle, which makes sense since chipotle really made the whole quick texmex thing popular. I like that they offer queso - chipotle doesn't offer a melted cheese. They also grill their burritos which is another win IMO. You'll also find much more diverse flavors here than chipotle - for better or worse, the salsa bar is nice and has a good variety of salsa that are unique in flavor.
Don't like the chicken, I've seen many other reviews commenting the same thing. I don't think it's really chewy and inedible as others have claimed but it's bland and sure to be the worst thing on your meal. Get a different meat, the pork is much better. Ownership should fix the chicken though.
Overall I can't strongly recommend this place. Similar prices to chipotle or even barrio during happy hour ($7 for a burrito). It's a smaller portion and isn't as good as either of those places. I probably prefer Qdoba/Moe's more to - but neither are really close to me.
3 stars because the salsa is good, I like that they offer things like queso and refried beans, and on Wednesdays they have $5 burritos - but I don't think it's better than their competition especially at the price point. I'll still come here once in awhile but I don't think it'll be very often - probably on Wednesdays.
