I went to go get a burrito today… They let me put add-ons to my burrito and let me tell you this thing was as big as my forearm. I ate the whole thing because I’m greedy but this was the best burrito ever 10 out of 10.

1st off, if you need a restroom, go before you come here – they dont have a public restroom sadly, & thats the only reason why I knocked off 2 starts on atmosphere.

The 1 star knocked off food is because they only have like 5 protein choices (asada (steak), al pastor (seasoned pork), chicken (shredded breast), carnitas (shredded pork) & i forgot the other. I came because id seen the old signs posted in pictures and it gave barbacoa as a protein option – they do not have barbacoa anymore, so if you seen that too, know they dont offer it anymore as of 11/6/2025. & I couldnt take a picture of what they offer now bc the far left monitor that had those details was not working – so the cashier had to tell.me verbally. She was helpful and patient.

I was reluctant to give this place a try at all bc they use chicken breast for chicken…. but I decided to go with the 2 taco lunch plate (al pastor) which comes with rice & beans chips and a fountain drink (free refills).

My #1 rule of thumb is always, if they charge for refills on fountain drinks at all, its not a good place, these refills being free gave me enough of a nudge to say – they didnt have the meat i wanted but we’ll still give it a try. I added a large addition of guacamole ($2.55) + a large side of carnitas ($2.50) to have with the rice & beans. All together about $20, which is totally fair.

The al pastor tacos, they werent fresh cut off a trompa or anything, but most of the actual restaurants around santa rosa i noticed are so lacking in flavor in general.. this has not the trompa chars, but the flavor is definitely there. Another tell of a decent taco, is if the juice that drips out is clear – not a good taco. This al pastor juice drips orangy red as it should. It was 7/10 for me.

The carnitas is (maybe) the only exception on the clear drips, and even this dripped sort of a yellowy color.. which (sounds) bad, but its not, it was a good yellow, maybe they used a tiny bit of turmeric or cumin or other seasonings but it was not just plain boiled carnitas like a lot of places do. Perfectly salted. Carnitas 9/10

Both the red and the green Salsas fantastic! I prefer the red, they do have a hot roja if you ask for it too, I have a beast tongue when it comes to spice, it had a slight kick, but most might think it a decent kick. Roja salsas 9/10 the not hot roja had a pleasant cool tomato flavor – it reminded me of gazpacho with a mexican twist. I dug it.

The rice and beans werent terribly memorable, but they werent bad at all either. They were perfectly seasoned, I didnt feel the need to search for salt at all for this whole meal, which is great. The beans were a fantastic addition for dipping the chips. Rice beans & chips 7/10

Lastly, the guacamole was decent too. It was not pureed, it was fresh smashed and had cilantro in it which I love. They didnt overdo it with additions & it was also perfectly salted. Good to use for the chips that came with the lunch along with the beans. Guacamole 9/10 for me.

I do wish they had even just 1 singular grilled jalapeño or Serrano pepper, that would have been icing on the cake.

After everything, im not too full or still hungry. Perfectly satisfied. Id definitely return!
