My recommendation at this combination KFC and taco bell is a Doritos double down, combining a double down sandwich and Doritos taco. The staff here is decent for a fast food place and fairly quick. The menu is pretty much the full menu for both KFC and taco bell too

Until I had the opportunity to explore more of the Mexican restaurants in my area, this was a go-to restaurant for me. This restaurant is closed on Mondays and is BYOB. It is small with limited seating, especially for large groups. With the small space, tile floor and televisions, it can be quite loud when there is a full house. I enjoyed the dishes on the menu such as their burrito and enchilada, the bistec dishes and also a special they had one day of posole. The green and red sauces are flavorful too. I visit these Mexican restaurants with friends who are Mexican so they give me great insight into what is 'authentic'. When another Mexican friend was visiting, they conversed with the woman working there (one of the owners?) about intensifying the spices for their palates. She explained that the dishes are tamed down for the general American palate but that she would ask the chef to do so. I don't know what was said to the chef, or if she was having one over on us, but the spice added to my dish was so intensely spicy, I could not taste anything for hours. It was overwhelming and slightly painful. My Mexican friends also deemed it too spicy and basically inedible.I realize we asked for them to make a difference, but when we explained it was too much, the woman simply laughed. Needless to say, I have not returned and have no intention of doing so. There are MUCH better Mexican restaurants - more authentic AND cheaper with larger portions -- in an area only two towns away.

Stopped in in thanksgiving eve with the family. Crowded and loud but ease off after after 7pm. Large portions and excellent service. We had two drinks. Blue Moon defat $8 and Blue Moon Shanty $10. The burritos are large enough to bring half home. Buffalo Moon Burrito $16 was very spicy. Triple Play Burrito $17 has steak, shrimp and chicken. Smokey Bearrito is BBQ chicken $16. We also had chicken quesadilla appetizer as a meal $11. Worth the trip.
