    This place is kinda like Chitpole but comes with a bar. Go for Happy Hour.

    The servers here are generally disinterested... But they are cooler than you are so they probably get a pass on being courteous.

    The service here was atrocious. It was like they were doing me a favor for paying. And it's happened twice now. Not worth putting up with their attitude for good but not stellar fast food.

    Try the "Black and Green." Shredded beef burrito with black beans, green salsa, lettuce, jalapeño, cilantro, and black olives. Yum!
