“Overall: friendly, fast service; large portions; and decent prices. We ordered pollo asada super nachos and a salsa verde chicken enchilada combo plate with rice and beans. Everything was fresh and excellent! Sometimes nachos can be really greasy, but theirs were not at all, which we appreciated. The pollo asada was perfectly cooked. Also, if you spend over $7, you get complimentary chips and salsa. The salsa bar was great, too, with lots of options, including sliced radishes. If you find yourself in Redding, try this place!”
