7.1/10 Honestly not worth it at all.
Got a carne asada super burrito.
The burrito is $14 and is very basic.
No cilantro.
No onions.
No pico de gallo.
Very poor for an expensive burrito.
It lacks flavor in every aspect; not even the rice had flavor.
The best part of the burrito is probably the tortilla, but the beans are so watery that the burrito gets very soggy as you're eating it.
The only reason my score is so high is because the meat was alright.
Green sauce couldn't save the burrito and was VERY watered down. For the price and the quality, you're way better off getting a sandwich from Togos next door.
Unless they change the quality of the food, DO NOT go here.

I honestly suspect that most of the negative reviews on this page are fakes from competitors or something, because $30-$50 for a meal is an outright lie.
I'm getting a meal plus leftovers for $20 each time i go here. as for the bland flavors, that might be true if you compare it to other restaurants that pack their food full of sugar and other flavor enhancers, but when it comes to home cooked food this stuff is pretty nice quality.
(if you know how to cook you could likely get rather stronger flavors at home, but keep in mind that this is a business that needs their food to cater to a wide range of people.
I might enjoy a cup of chilipowder per a taco, but not everyone else will).
also the 3 salsas they have are pretty strong, so if you want more flavor try adding those. as for the rude staff, well im curious how these customers are speaking to them.
The tall guy that used to work here years ago started to have parts of my meal ready before i ordered or even showed up, and the woman who works here seems rather friendly and smiles every time i show up.
maybe all it takes is to be respectful to receive respect? as for wait times, place is faster than most fast food places i've gone to. another benefit is i believe this might be a family owned business (not certain on that, but i hope im right), so no megacorp middleman siphoning off my money. outside of that stuff, salsa has got to be the best i've had, and actually spicy unlike other "spicy" salsas.
place is really clean, tables are clean and such.
the chips are high quality, not $3 plastic bags bought from a supermarket with excessive salt and yellow food dye.
easy to find a place to park, two massive parking lots that are often empty near it.

Gracias GreyWolf448 We are a family business serving Almaden since 2005. We appreciate all our customers, especially kind ones like yourself:)

I paid $60 dollars for 2 burritos 1 horchata 1 bag of chips. burritos were cold and clerk started to sweep up dirt right next to us as we ate not a very good experience Oops.
Good luck stay aware!
