It's always fun walking into local businesses and seeing them getting into the Yuletide spirit. Stopped in for lunch for my usual half chicken meal. And just had to look around. Located inside of weird gas station. You can find some of everything in here.

Amazing chicken fajita and beef fajita tacos. Seasoned wonderfully with perfectly cooked onions and peppers as toppings. The restaurant and Valero it's in was very clean and evidently newly opened in the past couple months. Lots of Tex-Mex/Mexixan menu choices from tacos, full roasted chicken, and agua frescas. Staff was friendly, attendant, and quick to prepare my meal. And to top it all off, it was a great value for only $9 for three tacos. I'll definitely be back!
