"I ordered a Gabacho burrito. Basically shredded beef burrito. I will say the burrito was nice and fat in size. However after cutting in half to take a picture I was questioning the amount of shredded beef that was in the burrito. Nevertheless the less I took a bite of the beef and it had flavor. Good flavor. As I continued grinding on the burrito the amount of beef feel short. They could have done a better job by spreading the beef out in the burrito. Instead it is just a chunk of beef with lots of beans and rice and some melted cheese. Actually they melt the cheese on the flour tortilla shell and it is nice and goooowiiee warm. I really like this part of the burrito. However the burrito falls short due to lack of beef and the only real flavor is the beef. Probably would not eat this again. Just because it really was a beans,rice,cheese burrito. They offer a small bag of chips and the salsa cups are tiny. However the salsa bar was nice with a good option of salsa and limes. I like the salsa bar because it was clean and well maintained. Lastly, they show a dinner plate with todays actual special. I thought that was great. However it does not give you a price and explain the it comes with a drink. The board that explains today special is not even close to the actual sample plate. Great ideal, bad execution. Today’s special was quesadilla plate special. Finally, the employees are very nice and kind. Yes I would eat here again."

I'm posting this for a friend: This was the worst food ever! The carne asada was terrible, and he ordered the special but couldn't even eat it because it was so bad.

The amount of meat was a little disappointing but the taste was definitely good. Little place with some good sauces.I came in on a rainy day and it definitely hit the spot and warmed me up.

They have a great selection and the prices are reasonable but the food could use more seasoning. It was fairly bland. I had 3 tacos [lengua, carne asada, and pastor]. My wife had a carne asada chimichanga.

This was probably the single worst street tacos we’ve ever had specifically the carne asada. So much big hard fat pieces that ruins the flavor. Fish is terrible but the carnitas is good. Chips and salsas rock. Stay away.

The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. My husband has a few allergies, and the team went above and beyond, repeatedly checking in with us to ensure the food was prepared correctly. We left feeling very well cared for and with full bellies!

The flavor is good but the amount of meat on each taco was disappointing! There was more tortilla, onions and pineapple than meat and for the price i would definitely hope for some more at least. Out of the 8 tacos we got, 2 of them we a decent amount of meat. View menu

I came here with my work team for a coworkers birthday lunch. He's a big fan of the Al pastor tacos. I ordered the Chile verde burrito platter and it was massive! The burrito and beans and rice were all amazing! I loved the cream filled churros as well. The chips and salsa were really good but our guacamole came out icy which I thought was odd.

El Mex lives up to its promise by offering authentic tacos, salsas, tortas, burritos, and other Mexican staples at reasonable prices. I've dined at several of their locations around a dozen times, and the service has consistently been excellent. My most recent visit was the best yet. While the ambiance is quite basic and could use some improvement, the food speaks for itself. Having had my parents live in Mexico for 15 years, I can confidently say that El Mex is on par with any casual taco shop in Jalisco.

"Wow! These guys really know how to make a fantastic potsticker. We tried the sweet corn, beef, and pork varieties, and they were all amazing. We also ordered the ham fried rice, kimchi, and the daily special – everything was genuinely great. The service was excellent, and you could tell the ingredients were super fresh! The potstickers were so delicious that I regretted only ordering eight! Haha. The outer pastry was crispy on the bottom and edges, while soft on the sides, striking the perfect balance in thickness – not too thick and not so thin that it becomes flimsy. The fillings were tasty as well. We devoured them so quickly that I forgot to take photos! Haha. I believe there's a flavor for everyone; if you're not a fan of corn, you can easily choose something other than the sweet corn. But if you love corn, it's an excellent option. I particularly enjoyed the beef filling. Both dipping sauces were delicious, with the sweet pale sauce being especially delightful with the corn potstickers. The ham fried rice was incredibly flavorful, with perfectly sticky rice and fresh ingredients like ham, carrots, and green beans in generous portions. The daily special we had was delicious slow-cooked pork in a light sauce served on cabbage, but keep in mind that it changes daily, so we will definitely be back to try more! The kimchi had a nice level of spiciness, and the brown color mixed well with the rice. You've got to try this place out! The owner was really friendly, even venting the box of potstickers before serving them to prevent moisture from making them soggy. Such a thoughtful gesture! I can't wait to return soon."

"I had an exceptional dining experience at Happy Lamb Hot Pot in Murray—possibly the best service I've encountered at a restaurant this year! The customer service was outstanding; it's evident that this establishment is well-managed. We visited on a busy Friday night, and despite the large groups ahead of us, we were seated promptly in about 40 minutes. It was a nice touch that they offered snack crackers for customers while we waited. Our waiter was attentive, taking our orders for meat and broth right away and checking in on us regularly. We left feeling completely satisfied! The buffet was well-stocked and clean, with highlights among the hot foods being the pig trotters, sesame chicken (the sauce was a mystery, but it was delicious), and the kimchi/cucumber salad, along with the stir-fried udon. The drink options were also a hit, particularly the milk tea which our table thoroughly enjoyed. The vegetables and hot pot ingredients were incredibly fresh and well-prepared. Our favorite meats for the hot pot were the pork belly and garlic beef, while the iron steak didn't impress us as much. One personal note: I wished they had used fewer goji berries in the broths; by the end of the meal, they all tasted too much like herbal tonics, which, while healthy, wasn't the best flavor with the meats. The atmosphere was relaxed and modern, perfect for conversation, and we appreciated the complimentary ice cream at the end of the meal. Overall, I would definitely return!

"I have always had a good experience here but on Saturday the 18th, it couldn’t be worse. While the restaurant was what would be considered a normal flow of diners, my partner and I were standing at the podium for around 10 minutes just waiting to be seated. Not the biggest deal, it is what it is. Once seated our waiter was prompt with our drinks and after that the service went downhill very quickly. We ordered the all you can eat sushi for the two of us $72 and some change with tax included as the final bill). Once ordering the first roll it took 20 minutes to receive it and following that it took yet again another 20 minutes for the waiter to bring out the second roll. The Ginza roll we had ordered with eel sauce came out and had fruit flies/ gnats on top of it and hovering around the dish. Where we didn’t have any bugs around us prior to this, the sushi roll was the clear reason for the bugs.Our waiter was unfortunately not attentive and we were out of drinks after the first 20 minutes of us sitting down. When our waiter had finally come back to us, he asked if we wanted to order any other rolls and we told him we would need just a minute but we would like him to come back. Instead, he had dropped the bill on the table and never came back. Paying for the all you can eat sushi was not worth it as the wait time for the rolls was ridiculous and the quality was disappointing. The cost of the rolls without us paying for the all you can eat sushi came out to be way less and we had in fact paid more for the “all you can eat” than we would have for the rolls by themselves. It’s disappointing as we had intended to order more to get our money’s worth and just enjoy the sushi in general and we were unable to do so.The service was disappointing and it’s unfortunate because it is usually spot on and the food is always perfect. I’m not sure if it was just that night that things were not as great as they typically are, but either way, the Ginza roll with the fruit flies/gnats flying on and around it is not excusable."
