Great food and quick service. Came here as they were hosting Chicago United riders. The tortillaria was also down the street, so I'm sure their food is extra high quality. I'm a bit confused as to why salsa is extra, but everything tasted amazing nonetheless. More

Not recommended at all. Bad atmosphere. I ordered a Gordita WITH RAJAS. Gave the first bite, but noticed NO rajas on it. I notified the waitress the issue. She took the gordita and brought back the same bite gordita, but now fulled of rajas plus missing a piece. I'm very disappointed. Bad customer service. First and last visit here. More
