Greasy, even for Mexican food

by armaghetto at Citysearch

I've given this place a few chances, since it's just up the street from me. I had a hankering for chorizo, and yes, chorizo is supposed to be greasy, but man, these guys don't even make an effort to drain it a bit. I figured hey, that's just the way they do it. I had a carne asada burrito about a month later and again, greasy. In a approximately 8 inch burrito, the bottom 2 inches were thoroughly soaked in grease, to the point that it seriously detracts from the taste of the food. On the plus side, the people are personable, more so if you speak some spanish. The interior is actually pretty neat, with a lot of Mexican knick-knacks.

• Pros: Cheap
• Cons: Incredibly Greasy
