“ We think this place is actually pretty darn good!! We've had corn in a cup.and some good tortas:) For the most part we do the drive through but have dined in once and it was a pretty nice little place. Not fancy or anything.for.that matter but nice non the less. They have Mexican cokes and lots of sweet snacks. We go here alot since were in town. Only thing is I wish the corn in a cup was fire roaster but it's not. It's ok though cause everything else is super good. ”

“ This is my go to place when I’m in the mood for elote! My elote has never been watery unlike other places I’ve tried! You can choose between white or yellow corn. They give you the chile separately in a little container so you can add it to your liking. ”
