Took about 40 minutes to get our food and 5 to eat it. All the tacos are very flavorful and prepared nicely but kinda small. Its really worth it to get the 7 taco maximum and get whatever you don't eat to go. Try every kind, they are all good. Arrived before 1oclock and 5 of us got seated in 5 minutes.

My co-workers and I got there at 11:50, normally well before any lunch rush, there were 3 people on line ahead of us, and we were told they weren't taking orders anymore and there was at least an hour wait. Remember, they open at 11:30. And though a few people were waiting outside for their orders, there was hardly anybody in the restaurant proper. It appears they were unprepared from the get-go.
