First time here and was happy with my experience. I couldn't decide on a burrito, so I ordered the burrito trio to try all 3. My favorite sauce of the three was the green one, however all of them brought their own distinct flavors. The meats in the burritos were also decent, but the red one was a little on the dry side. I also enjoyed the drink, nothing too special, but I liked all the seasoning on it. Overall, good service, good experience.
I see this restaurant every time I commute home from work and my wife heard about it on Facebook. We decided to come here and try their food. It lived up to the talk and suggestions from many online. We arrived just as it was getting busy and our host gave us a warm welcome. Asked us to sit anywhere and we chose a booth by the windows. We had their chips and salsa which was homemade, got a bowl of their signature menudo, machaca and egg breakfast with refried beans and rice. Also had 2 of their Conchinita Pibil tacos. Everything was delicious and authentic in flavor. The restaurant was clean, organized, and excellent service. We'll be coming back for more items on their menu.
Food, service, atmosphere & parking lot = EXCELLENT AND HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT. the portions are tasty & plentiful, you can't go wrong. Plenty of space to park, relaxed atmosphere & screen tv's to catch your fav sporting event. When in the area, stop by. You'll become a regular.

Had this Mexican restaurant on my saved list for a while and was craving a burrito so finally checked it out on a rainy day since i was in the Lomita area. Lots of parking in the back of restaurant, walked in and was greeted warmly by the waitress also. Ordered their specialty, the Boxito Burrito with the sides and was not dissapointed. Smoky flavor, very unique and filling. Chips and salsa was adequate, the lady was courteous to ask if i needed more salsa too. 5 stars, recommend this place
