Very easy to get help, kind, courteous and quick service!!! Highly recommend but no longer located where Google says. They are located in the Dobisky Center by the St. Lawrence River. I ordered the dirty nacho with everything except jalapeños. Very tasty!!! Highly recommend for meeting lunches as well. Closed Mondays

This place is great! I got the special of the day which was The Three Enchiladas: Cheese with salsa Verde, chicken with queso Blanca, beef with red sauce. It came with a side of Spanish rice and refried beans. It was beautifully plated and so tasty! Hubby got the burrito. Which was humongous! He got the ground beef and pick the fillings. We both walked outta there stuffed. The staff was friendly and the place tidy. We'll be back.

Queso- 1/5 stars. Probably the worst quest I’ve had and the chips are not fresh….. Now, the Marley burrito is bomb and definitely made up for it. 5/5 for the burrito.

The food is great, not everything is for everyone obviously but I think everyone could find a favorite they can't quit pretty easily. The service especially the delivery is top notch. Extremely consistent, you don't get a 'bad day' from these guys. Highly recommend trying the Buffalo Nachos and Mexican Pizza on Tuesdays.

I'm a regular for the tacos. Excellent atmosphere, great food, prices, and staff. Local delivery helps cement this business as a must have for the area.

Just had an insanely good burrito! The shrimp is delicious and tender and I love that they offer extra cilantro on all of their dishes! The house medium salsa adds a really nice kick that’s not too overwhelming. You can tell that everything is very fresh and Murray is always a delight! Cannot recommend more, support your local eateries!
