Not sure where the people went that gave bad reviews, but I've been there many times over the past year and haven't experienced what they have, or had food that looked absolutely destroyed like one posted of enchiladas. My fiance and I have tried many items from the menu, juice is freshly squeezed right in front of customers, and all the food is prepared right in front of everyone. Pretty hard to cheat customers with watered down juice and reheated dishes if they're prepared out in the open. One of the cleanest places I've been in, not even the little trinkets on shelves have any dust on them. Every chair is thoroughly cleaned, top, bottom, sides, as are the tops and undersides of the tables. I've sat and watched the diligence of the employees with extreme approval while eating my delicious meal. Employees are very friendly, and the owner is present at his table every day making sure thing go smoothly. We were immediately treated with smiles and graciousness the first time, and each following visit the smiles grow larger. The food is very fresh, very tasty, and filling. Enchiladas suizas con huevos volteados, drizzled with their house salsa and chipotle, makes my mouth very happy. Goes so well with a cup of delicious coffee.
