    The staff here is awesome - so friendly and the always remember my order. The 80s music is also a cool throw back.

    If you dislike awesome burritos and a killer selection of hot sauces, stay away. This place isn't for you! I think I've heard of this place called Taco Bell. It may be more to your liking...

    Too much rice, but enough of everything else. Had to mine to find the cheese and guacamole. Go to Chipotle instead.
