    Their flour chips are extra, but they are so good. I love their Carne Asada burrito. Their beans and rice are the best in the area in my opinion.

    Try the albondigas, a traditional soup that you don't find on many menus. Its perfect for a rainy day, or any day!

    Known for their fluffy flour tortilla, their chimichanga is a must try at this family restaurant.
