Absolutely delicious! As a mexican myself, I am super picky when it comes to eating mexican food outside of my own house. As I ate my burrito, it was As if my mom had made it herself! It was delicious and the salsa was to dye for. We stopped on our way from Dallas to Brownfield because of the great reviews, and they were right! Will definitely stop by on our way home back to dallas! Super Delicious and prices were super decent

First time trying and it was delicious! Tortillas were fresh and fluffy. Burritos were substantial and filling. The barbacoa was juicy but not greasy. We arrived close to 11 and they were starting to run out of ingredients so get there early on the weekend! The wait time was long but they were really busy.

Small restaurant off the side of the road. I ordered carne guisada burritos and they’re not bad. Prices are very reasonable and they’re really good.

I was gonna take a picture. I promise I was. But that tortilla was so soft and fresh, the salsa so bright, the atmosphere so warm & inviting…I thunderpunched that meal into my cavernous eat-hole. The guy at the counter that took our order was helpful and friendly. The price—we got six burritos and three drinks—was reasonable. The atmosphere was welcoming, it felt like a place I could eat every day for the next 30 years. If I had a complaint, I wish the salsa was spicer, but that’s a personal preference and I could have asked, they probably would have provided. Now if you will excuse me, I’m going to change into a different sweatshirt and glasses so they don’t know I immediately came back in for two more of their delicious burritos.

Being Hispanic, the way I judge a Mexican restaurant is by going for the gusto lol. Homemade tortillas are a must, which they have. I ordered the Chicharon, Barbacoa, and the Carne Guisada. The chicharon had perfect flavor. Could have been a little bit more spicy, but overall was delicious. The barbacoa was legit barbacoa, not roast textured beef. Could have had more flavor, but was good. The carne guisada’s flavor was on point. It was a shredded beef not beef tips like the way I prefer. Overall very satisfied with this burrito joint and will be back.

Burritos are always fresh, the flavors are perfect, fast wait time and friendly staff. Always nice and clean inside. Prices are very reasonable also. Only thing is, I wish the hot sauce, for the burritos, had a bit more spicy to it.
