WE DO NOT ACCEPT Apple Pay or any other form of contactless payment.
Friendly Reminder,
Due to space limitations and the high volume of traffic on weekends customers will need to wait outside for their table. We have a covered patio with chairs and a water station on the west side of the building (next to Enterprise).
PLEASE PLAN ACCORDINGLY.
Please expect wait times on average of 25 to 45 minutes anytime after 9:30 a.m. on weekends. Large parties or special requests (booth only, particular server) will increase your average wait time.
Packaging fee on your receipt?
As a business the packaging fee helps to offset the non-food related price increases. As a small business we have decided to include a packaging fee vs continuing to incrementally increase our prices and change our menu. Packaging fee is 3% of the total bill and therefore the amount will vary depending on your ticket. This fee is applied to all tickets for dine-in and take-out.
On weekends we are asking all customers to please wait outside for a table & not to crowd the entrance.
Dining Room
Due to our size & to give the best service to all of our customers we will no longer sit parties larger than 8. A 18% gratuity will be included on all parties larger than 5.
Phone Orders & Take-Out
We have currently suspended curbside service. Please check-in with our take-out server at the podium when you walk-in. Phone orders stop at 1:00 p.m., customers may still place take-out orders until 1:45 p.m.
*take-out fee (18 % gratuity) will be included on all orders of 24 or more tacos and all large orders of 7 or more plates*
We are blessed to have the opportunity to do what we love. Thank you for your continued support throughout the years.
