a week agoIt's very delicious. It's been a few years since I last came here. They have a lot of dishes that you won't find anywhere else, so if you're a taco fan, you'll definitely enjoy it. I arrived on a Saturday around 10am and was able to get in without having to wait in line, but a line formed later.

a week agoI went for lunch on Sunday. I waited about an hour, but my meal was ready within 30 minutes. The food was delicious, but even though I ate quite a bit, I was still hungry by the evening. Next time I'll definitely eat more.
