  Out of all the taco shops in Escondido, this one is probably my favorite!
  
  Quality food, and their ingredients all taste fresh!
  
  Good quantity, and the price is great! I also like the salsas provided in their salsa bar.

  I love this place! The food and service is fantastic every time!
  
  I've always driven past this place before and never thought to drop in until my niece told me about it. I now know why this place has great reviews....
  
  The carne in the burritos are tender and flavorful, the tortilla is always hot and soft, and the freshness of the food is what keeps me coming back! The rolled tacos and carne asada fries are also very good especially with their house salsa. Also, don't forget to ask for a baggie so you can take some of their hot carrots home! They are probably some of the best I've ever had!
  
  The only negative is their horchata. I don't taste the richness and it's never sweet enough.....
  
  The service from the older lady that usually works the front is exceptional. She always makes sure I get the right amount of utensils and napkins on my way out!
  
  Try this place....you won't regret it!

  Must try the
  Surf n Turf - Carne, shrimp, beans, rice & house cream
  Had to cut back to get to in to getting this only two to times a week. So easy to get hooked on it.
  It has unbelievable taste. For me big enough for two meals.

  Love this place so much. The food is always amazing, I usually get the carne asada burrito which is huge. The food is always really fresh and the portions are always good size. Definitely recommend this place for lots of fresh food at a good price.

  I was driving around aimlessly trying to figure out what to eat for dinner.  It was one of those nights where nothing sounded good to me.  After wasting about 30 minutes driving around I decided to grab Mexican food.  
  
  I saw this place and decided to give it a try.  They have a lot to choose from on their menu.  After another 10 minutes of trying to decide what to eat, I ordered Chicken Enchiladas.   I ordered the combo which came with rice and beans.   After all that time having trouble making a decision, I realized I made a very good choice.  
  
  The portion size was very generous, and I was very happy with the flavor.  I couldn't tell you what it was, but I loved it and destroyed it.
