Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Decent quick-serve Tex-Mex food. I had a Tofu Fajita Salad. I’d wanted to get a burrito bowl, but they were out of rice, but I wasn’t unhappy with the salad. The guy who made my bowl was nice and helpful showing me all the options since I had never been before. Everything was very average - the topping options were basic, the vegetables and probably bowl were just slightly past peak freshness (still completely acceptable, though). But the basic combination of ingredients admittedly work well together, and I thought the salsa was pretty good. Overall it was less impressive than comparable fast Tex-Mex chains that I’m familiar with like Chipotle and Moe’s, but it got the job done. Good portion size for the price. The taco menu is again mostly just the basic ingredients, but there were a few more interesting things in there, and when the customer in front of me asked for a special taco sauce on their quesadilla, the worker put it on, so you could try spicing it up by doing that. Props to them for having lots of vegetarian choices - according to the menu, you can sub tofu for the meat in any of the tacos. The restaurant is spacious and very clean. The booths all have outlets which I appreciated since my phone perpetually needs a charge.

The first thing I want to say is that they had a new employee with a Pizza Hut shirt on, I think his name was Crunk (or Crump), and he was excellent for our group, friendky and helpful. Unfortunately he had a manager on duty, Benn, who was not so great. First we came in as a group of five and the rest of our larger group hadn't arrived yet. This wasn't a problem because you order person by person and you pay person by person, with open seating. I first noticed Benn when he came out with a container of chips and told crunk that that was all they had. I heard that from just behind the glass. I would have been the first one to order, but I'd never been there so I was looking at the vegetarian options and let someone order ahead of me. She gave Crunk her order, and he started to make it and near finish, Ben took over and had all these questions about what she ordered. The questions weren't the issue, it was that she wanted extra meat, and said she understood that it would be extra, but Benn insisted that the thing was usually made only one way until saying he would have to charge her extra, which she already said and understood. He didn't really look at her, moved curtly, and had a visable attitude. While I was looking, I was like, "oh they have tofu; that's what I'll get." Crunk said almost immediately, "I'm sorry we don't have any tofu." When I said "okay" he then explained that they don't carry tofu in the months that students aren't there. So then I said I was getting the shrimp. Crunk shook his head, said he had to go in the back and came back out and said that there wasn't any shrimp either. Around that time about four or six more people walked in. Only one person from our group had been fully served and paid. Benn said to Crunk, which again I could hear, "I can tell you right now we don't have enough food to serve these people." He said it with an attitude and as if he was annoyed we'd chosen Twisted Taco for lunch. I ended up ordering after a second person because I had to regroup. She ordered something simple and Crunk started making her dish and Ben took it from him , so he started making mine. Ben took that from him, and started it all over once he realized what I ordered because he was confused. Now I will say, once been started asking questions and preparing my order his attitude was calmer, but he still had one. He cashed me out and proceeded to help with the remaining customers. They took a whike to get through the customers, and you could see Crunk on the line. Sometime after I sat down, whole there were still 7 people in line, more had come in not with our group, we noticed Benn come out to the fountain and grab a drink and go to the back. We don't know what was going on, but it appeared that he left the new employee on the line alone, backed up to go to the back. When more from our group sat down, they all commented on Benn's attitude and demeanor. We all agreed to submit reviews through theit QR solicitation. I also review on Google. So here are my thoughts, if you disregard the not so great service from the manager, the employee that greeted and helped us, Crunk, was polite and friendly. Everyone really liked their food from all sides of the table after we all sat down. I wasn't particularly happy about having to only get nachos and veg, but i was offered black beans and that was a good protein sub. It does bother me that the two non meat protein options outside of beans were not carried because students aren't at the school. Students and young adults aren't the only people who are vegetarians pescatarians are vegans. The atmosphere and the restaurant was pretty chill too , there was only two other tables and it was fairly quiet until us. Unfortunately, they must not have been informed of the not one but at least two groups visiting the campus for the week, ours with almost 200 people. And we shared our experiences with our classmates.

My first time coming the employees were super welcoming and gave me great suggestions while I was deciding on what I wanted to eat. The male worker upfront asked me how I was doing and generally cared and we had a nice brief conversation And wanted to make sure I got the best experience him and his coworkers seem to have a great work environment being very playful but still focus on the job at hand was like a breath of fresh air I will be coming back and the food was so simple but so good. If your close I recommend it.
