Brian IbarraOctober 4, 2014The food is super good here and the decorations make it feel so warm and comfy inside! Love the atmosphere and food is in big portions
Their flour chips are extra, but they are so good. I love their Carne Asada burrito. Their beans and rice are the best in the area in my opinion.
Dean M.October 21, 2016A Sacramento institution. A Ton of food. Get there early the place is big but it fills up fast.
Faith de LeonMarch 28, 2012Try the albondigas, a traditional soup that you don't find on many menus. Its perfect for a rainy day, or any day!- Keshia ReginaMarch 3, 2016Shrimp chimichanga is so good. I can't finish it all at once the serving is huge!
