We have been huge supporters of this restaurant from back in Wburg and were among the first to walk through the DeKalb doors. The food was always great, but our last couple of experiences have been very dissappointing. To start, the delivery area is in the shape of a long rectangle, so people that live three blocks away are charged a delivery fee. The delivery man once lied to us about where the fee was going and got another 3 dollars for tip, when in reality, the 3 dollar charge was supposed to be the tip. We let that slide and decided to pick up from then on, only to find that the kitchen was slipping drastically since it opened. The tacos were greasier than the Bushwick "tortilla factory" (which I highly recommend) and the burrito was literally 75% tortilla with about 3 1/2 beans. Seeing that beans are practically free, I had a hard time wrapping my head around this one. On top of that, the chopped salad, which would have been amazing had it been fresh, practically pickled in dressing. We really feel that we got the bottom of the barrel. We used to love this place, but we are taking a long break before we go back to see if they've shaped up. There are plenty of better options on DeKalb, Myrtle, and all the side streets. Pros: Convenient... used to be good Cons: Like many successful restaurants, they are content once they are packing the house. more
