“ The nopal and egg burrito was delicious Salsa good too ”
“ So many good things to say about this place! First off I only ordered the Birria soup but WOW it was sooo delicious, packed (I mean absolutely stuffed) with meat ready in 15 minutes. However I have to say, I found something here that I almost never ever seen at other food places. Something I really care about and want but never see or get... A to-go container that wasn't Styrofoam!!!! It made me so happy to eat my delicious Birria soup, in traffic from a non-styrofoam cup! Thank you El Atacor. Next time I'm in your neck of the woods, I'm definitely stopping by again! ”
