The salsa had a smooth consistency instead of being chunky, which is my personal favorite (though it's hard to find), and it was both spicy and delicious. The chips were perfectly crispy. For my main course, I ordered a Wet Burrito, which I typically choose at a Mexican restaurant, filled with spicy pork carnitas. My companion opted for a chicken Chimichanga. Both dishes were outstanding — fat, hearty, and served with a generous side of rice and refried beans. We were both extremely pleased with our choices, though the portions were so large that neither of us could finish. The total bill came to just under $40, including tip, which I believe is an excellent value. A meal at Chipotle wouldn't have been much cheaper, and certainly wouldn’t have been as good. Later on, I even heard a student recommending this place to another student at the event. Overall, this restaurant is a grand slam home run, and I highly, highly recommend it!

The waitstaff has always been friendly and attentive, checking on us multiple times throughout our meal. The food is excellent and seems fresh. Their house hot sauces may be a bit spicy for those with a low tolerance, but they are full of flavor. The entrance is wheelchair accessible, and there is good spacing between the tables. I haven't used the restrooms, so I can't speak to their accessibility for wheelchairs. We definitely plan to return for a third visit.

However, the food itself could use more seasoning, as it was a bit bland. The restaurant is small and not particularly memorable, and the service was mediocre. The staff wasn't rude, but the hospitality felt lacking, especially considering there were only two tables and primarily takeout orders. As for parking, it's a challenge to find an available spot, as there aren't many options.
