I don’t live in the area but, I was hungry and looking for somewhere to get some lunch. I’m glad I went here. I hit a burrito and was delious! Full of flavor especially with the green salsa.

Super nice people. Very fair prices. I must say that I’ve only had the chicken for the last 7 years. They use some kind of spice on the meat that is very tasty and unusual. I like to count all the spelling errors on the wall menu. You can’t go wrong with this place.

Poorest excuse for a Al Pastor burrito I’ve ever had. Pork tasted really bland like it was cooked in a crock pot with no spices. Chicken chimmi was no better. Salsa was a joke. 1 star for being cheap

Some of the best Mexican food in the area. As a college student I really like this place because you really get the worth of your dollar. Anything on the menu is great but I have gotten the Torta more than once because it’s so huge and covered in guacamole, as well as other ingredients. The only downside is that it’s only open till 9 p.m. Not a lot of people know about Buenos Dias because later at night the crowds head to some other place across town that’s open later, but who’s food isn’t as good. If you’re from the area definitely check it out. If passing through I’d hit up some other places UNLESS you really like Mexican food.

My dad loves this place, and we’ll do anything in his power to get us to eat here whenever we’ve had our fill of Chinese buffets. It’s probably because this is the only place within a few miles of us that serves lengua(tounge) tacos. For what it’s worth, those are pretty good. The pros: Aforementioned lengua tacos. Portion size, you will be full, guaranteed. Speed, you will be full fast, like within 5 mins of placing your order. Cons: With speed comes a trade off in quality. The guacamole is a dull yellow instead of a vibrant green, and tasted like it had no seasoning whatsoever. The rice was falling apart, like they used rice made much earlier in the day, and all of the seasoning started clumping up instead of being evenly distributed. The last big thing I noticed was that the horchata was incredibly diluted. Which was OK because I need to cut back on sigar, but not ok because I paid for a large glass of horchata flavored water. Maybe it was one of their slower days(saturday lunch) and they compensated by skipping on some of the freshness and taste today. But consistency will always be your friend when looking for customers, and today they didn’t deliver.

I stopped by on a whim and I am very pleased with my decision. I am right now eating a legendary burrito. The price is great and so is the atmosphere. Come on by. You’ll be glad you did.

Love this place! My favorite hole in the wall place to get tacos! Very yummy chorizo, but I almost always get steak tacos. Everything is flavorful without being ridiculously salty. Don’t judge a book by its cover — this place is great.

I had the chicken burrito and the steak taco both were very good and reasonably priced. The green hot sauce is very spicy and hot i highly recommend it. I will definitely return

Good, NOTOVERSALTED, which made us very happy. Wife had 2 steak tacos($ 2 each) w/sour cream and guacamole(extra 25 cents per condiment per taco) These guys were loaded to the gills, she was very happy with the tacos. I had lengua taco dinner, seemed fresh to me, I say this because depending on the demographics of the area this may not be the most popular meat choice. They were great, served traditionally w/cilantro and onion, rice, beans, and a few chips(3 tacos, $ 7.75). The only issue I had was that the beans were a bit dry, I understand that happens as they sit, just saying a few drops of water would have loosened them up. This is a Taqueria so don’t expect fancy, but the food is great and came out fast. We will definitely go back.

I’ve been to enough greasy spoon Mexican places to say this place was just ok. Upside, they were not lying about the giant burrito. Biggest burrito I’ve had yet.

Read a few reviews before stopping by to check it out. Flavor is a huge deal here. We were working on a patio nearby and after the first time we got food from here we came back 2 more times. The burritos are big and meaty. So are the tortas. Everything is fresh. Salsas are good and spicy. Will keep coming back when ever I can.

It is excellent for a greasy spoon Mexican joint it is. Tacos and burritos are among the best I ever had and priced very competitively. This is also one of the rare places that serves tongue, with trappings of your choice.

Small family Mexican restaurant. Mainly take out as there are on seats for 30. I got the taco lunch special with Horchata. $ 8 for two streak tacos, rice, beans, and a drink. Everything was good, service was friendly and fast. I will definitely be coming back for a good inexpensive lunch.

Grabbed lunch here the other day. Reasonably priced and they ACCEPTCREDITCARDS. Got a 2 chicken taco lunch special for around $ 6. The chicken was ok, but very spicy. It was drenched in a red sauce which I haven’t seen before at other places. Also, this place is no joke with their sauce(they give generous amounts of both red and green sauces). This lunch really cleared any congestion I may have had because each bite was hot, hot, hot! Green sauce was exceptionally spicy. Rice was a bit dry.

Loved this place! Simple, Tasty Mexican. Choose from the menu on the wall, place your order at the counter and have a seat! $ 1.85 for a great authentic taco, huge quesadillas, and nice people. Would eat here three times a week if I lived here!

Very good burrito. Great guacamole. Loud music in Spanish. I didn’t mind the Spanish radio station, but I did think it was too loud. Staff lackluster but efficient. They make the food and call it out from the counter, where you are supposed to go get it. Its a fine system I guess, but they did not share it with me, so had to repeat a few times my order. I might have just brought it out at some point when it was clear I was not«hearing» it. Loud music played a role in this too. Tables could use a wipedown. Food — 4 stars Ambiance — 2 stars Employees lack of smiling — 2 stars Overall 3 stars. They have a visa sign posted, but seems to be a cash business. Easy parking.
