don’t know if i fully get the hype but it was a good, greasy quesadilla/burrito for crazy cheap. if you’re a tourist trying to get authentic bites be aware the street it’s on is pretty gritty

The burrito was good, I mean for 10 dollars it was very filling for a whole day and the sauce was incredible, but the burrito itself lacked a bit of flavor, or well, expected more for the hype as to say
