This place has amazing food. Breakfast. Beans. Rice. If you're from Texas... then you know.
great breakfast burritos favorite place for them! and enchiladas love love love love we go lots for the breakfast burritos
Keep in mind that this is a fast food restaurant with a few other locations in the area. They get your order to you very fast, so don't expect gourmet, but do expect a decent meal with large helpings! I love their enchiladas combo because they also give you a whopping amount of beans and rice and the red and green salsas give if a good amount of spice. I'll add a pic of those next time I get them. The carne asada fries are eh. It doesn't really taste like carne asada because the meat is super chewy and rough. Maybe they just cook it too much? But I've had them several times here and as a carne asada fry connoisseur, these just aren't up to par. There's no flavor in the meat at all and some pieces were so chewy I had to spit them out. I do love the horchata, so there's a point. But I wouldn't say the fries are worth a $17 meal. Try a different menu item! Also be aware that this is right next to a gas station and I've seen a lot of people experiencing homelessness around. There's been some aggressive people recently so I would lock your door and keep your windows up.
great authentic tacos! grilled chicken or carne asada you can't go wrong! good value
this is the best taco star in the springs! food is always fresh. i come here 2-3 a week and always get the carne fries. serving sizes are amazing for the price! i've gone to a couple different locations and none hit the same as this one! great lunch option and takeout service is great too!
