I just want to really appreciate the Señora that took my order today. She was so kind and welcoming the minute i walked in the door. I had my son and daughter with me. She realized quickly it would be a lot to carry out the door with the baby so she offered to bring it out to the car for me. She was so sweet and even offered to do this for me whenever i needed to place an order again. I wish i would’ve got her name. Also beyond this the food was AMAZING even my picky eater ate up all the rice and beans plus his quesadillas. Thank you 😊🫶🏼
