They're very good at their jobs and the packing was so careful for some truly messy and/or sog-prone foods. Incredible quesadillas, incredible yucca fries, and all of it traveled well. Just probably don't plan to eat in.“

It came right on time, and was set up perfectly! We received so many compliments on all the food, and people kept going back for seconds. Carlos and his team were such a pleasure to work with, and cared so much about the success of our event. We could not recommend them enough.“

“We finally tried after years of driving by. The food was good, and the service was fast. My wife had the fajita burrito and had enough for two meals. I had the enchilada and tamal combination, and it was a large single serving. The rice was salty for our taste. The refried beans were good. Burrito was awesome. The enchilada and tamal would be average, except for the red enchilada sauce. It was great. It made the whole thing come together. The salsa was a sauce that tasted good, but it was a thin liquid.

I got the hen soup, chicken tamale, horchata, and grilled chicken for later. They even gave me some fresh sopes (I think that’s what they are, the thick corn tortillas). This is exactly what I needed, and the portions are huge. Thank you so much, I will be ordering again soon!!“

For food, we got their ponzu wings which were so delicious. I got the 4 for $17 taco deal. The ropa vieja was my favorite, super flavorful and tender. My boyfriend got the fish burrito which he really enjoyed, just wished there was more fish in the burrito. Service was amazing. Would recommend to anyone visiting Richmond!“
