First of all, Jack is the best!! If you get him as your waiter, you're in for a good time! Second of all, happy hour here is I got the carnitas tacos & chicken quesadilla and they were both amazing. 10/10.

The food was great, and the service was very nice, too. We ordered avocado tacos, chicken tacos, and carnitas tacos. The carnitas were soft and tender! recommend

Gigantic. Breakfast. Burrito. Portion sizes justify the price. Absolutely delicious food and attentive service as well. Many seating options and great atmosphere at the farmers market.

Visting from Minnesota, we decided to stop at the farmers market. Here was this gem of a restaurant!! We were seated right away and ordered beverages. I had a regular margarita and it was soooooo good! We ordered tamales - chicken and beef, and QuesaBirria Tacos. WOW. So good. The green rice really stood out as it was nothing I had had before, and I loved it! Great service from our waiter, and beautiful to sit and people watch. Definitely check out the market and absolutely make sure you stop here for lunch!

All employees were kind, prompt, and attentive. We were able to sit immediately during a week day lunch time. The menu was clear with a variety of choices. The food was overall yummy, though we prefer pinto beans over black beans. The avocado tacos were good but a little overwhelmed by the pickled red onion. Reccomend the strawberry limeade!
