I've been here twice in less then a week. Last Friday, Shannon and I walked down there and I went again on Tuesday with Brandon and Keith from work.

Both meals were good and inexpensive. Shannon and I shared a Quesadilla with Chorizo, and then I had a Chimichanga (chicken) while Shannon had a Burrito Sonora (chicken). Both where quite good. the chorizo was red, a bit spicy and quite good. Service was quick and polite. The salsa was nice, and it seems to me like they fry their own chips (which I like). The cost was just over $30, including tip. My only complaint is that our food did not come out at the same time...If I was spending a few more dollars, I would complain more about that...but

On Tuesday, I had the Burrito Deluxe, which was pretty good. Brandon ended up buying, which is extra good.

Simple, quick, and delicious. I believe my inexpensive Mexican place has been replaced. It seems a bit fresher, cleaner, and tastier then El Aguila Real...and it's within walking distance.
