I absolutely love this place! Discovered this place 8 months ago and have zero regrets. They have lengua, trompa, and buche! If you know, you know. Price is great and affordable! I have eaten the burrito for 2 meals. The churros donuts are delish as well, but I stay away, or it'll be the death of me. I wrote this review because I want them to get business and stay open!

The food was delicious! Fries, crisp on outside, soft in the middle, lightly seasoned. Chicken tenders were juicy, big, meaty, and so good. Corn dog was good size, meaty dog, delicious coating. Bacon cheeseburger, fresh, large, juicy and well seasoned! Atmosphere, very pleasant, kind and courteous servers. We really enjoyed our meal. Highly recommend!

The staff are always friendly and don't mind if we bring our little dog in, they even offer us a water cup for her when we bring her. The chefs are super fast and clean, and they make THE best tacos! Their lengua and guche tacos are killer! They load their food up, too! We order to go or dine in a often as we can. So tasty!

Pricing - excellent. Tahoe is expensive, but this place is a good value regardless. $7.50 for a double burger, $5.50 for a breakfast burrito. Food - Very good. Burgers were juicy and Patty hand formed. Breakfast burrito (chorizo) special was great as well. Buffalo chicken sandwich was crispy and tasty. Service - People were very friendly and welcoming.

BEST GLUTEN FREE BURGER IVE EVER HAD! The bun was perfect and the burger itself was huge even for a normal sized burger. They use potato starch as their batter so the fries (which were PERFECT) are also gluten free! Highly highly recommend.
