This restaurant is designed for efficiency with good food. The menu is simplified with you mostly building a burrito the way you like it with a few options to choose from. Seating is limited, but intended to turn over often with the quick lunch crowds that frequent this establishment.

Have eaten here many times, and the problem is always "What to get today..." I agree with other positive reviews, the beans are great, chicken and beef dishes are very tasty and satisfying. If you are really hungry try the nachos - I have never been able to finish a plate. Today I had the chicken nachos, got a little more than half way and was stuffed. Dinner tonight was awesome too as I finished it off! Price has gone up a bit for the combo plates - almost $10, but they are a full meal.

If you want something different from the run of the meal taco, this is the right place. They have all different types of tacos. Worth eating at if you want a taco with a twist.

Always delish! Always predictable. YUM YUM YUM. Pick the Pork Barbocoa Tostada. That's my favorite! The Tortilla Soup is really really good too. Fresh taste, unique flavors. Ultra yum! Cute enviornment with colorful Mexi decor. There is often a line, which means standing. Worth it!

It all started in the kitchen when the Armenta family came to Utah from Guanajuato, Mexico. Mama brought with her the wonderful recipes that have been in the family for generations. A blend of secret ingredients, strict attention to freshness and quality

Took 10 of our grandchildren to dinner last night so 12 different dishes ordered. Iâd say it was about 60/40 on quality. Mostly good. However, the tacos were dry and tasteless. Thought I was biting into a brick. The beef dishes use shredded beef unless you request ground beef. The chick3n dishes seemed to be more succulent. Quantity is huge. Quality is marginal. Service was extra special superb.

We love that this place is so close to where we live. Please don't ever move! We have our favorites and sometimes we get adventurous and try something new. Whatever we get we are never disappointed. It gets busy at times but the staff really know how to move you through which is good because you want to start eating right away! The horchata is also very good! I'm a water drinker but I love the horchata!

Recommend by now-a-friend Stevan D, a guide to Provo-based places and beyond.Wow, a big menu, with big plates. Anyone can find something here. I recommend sharing an entree after a big bowl of better chips and salsa (needed seasoning). The dishes are nicely plated, some look festive. walk around the place to get some ideas We tried the;-Horchata with extra cinnamon, excellent.- Chille Relleno, one of the best I've had.(Also carte was a deal at $4.25).- Enchiladas Rancheros, very nice juicy pork, asked for a little more sauce. Will ask for red pepper sauce next time.- Enchiladas Mole, respectable but chicken can easily get dry. Plus it is hard for me to get mole in Utah anywhere but the Red Iguana.Thanks Elise for a memorable lunch.Thanks Stevan D for the recommendation, look him up to get more on the area.
