That's me in the bright blue polo. Had the Pork Carnitas Baja Burrito, it was quite good. Also of all the salsas, the mango was by far the best. Woo! That’s me in the bright blue polo.

I expected the food to be sub-par compared to its West Coast counterparts, but it was actually pretty good. And for opening day, the chaos was quite organized and the service was friendly. Hands down this place beats Chipotle for taste and breadth of menu. Beware of the line for the salsa bar. I will definitely get my friends to go here. My only slight complaint of this place is due to the crazy Manhattan rents, it's more expensive here than back in LA. Be prepared to spend at least $10. But I just hope they open one on the westside soon. For someone who is from LA and has been waiting for this day for nearly ten years, I was actually quite impressed.

I got the grilled mahi mahi taco platter. The tacos were very tasty, happy with the manager recommendation. The rice and beans were ok, nothing special. Really enjoyed the selection of salsas for my chips. At 10 dollars after tax, it was a bit much for lunch, but it was a good change of pace from Sophie's and El Sabor Del Ray.
