Address & contact

Corner of Sunset Hwy, near Ziegler.

We're on the south side of Sunset Highway, in a strip with plenty of parking out front. Red sign, looks like a taco shop, smells like carne asada. If you've driven past once and wondered, this is your sign.

Call the restaurant directly at (509) 315-8891. Email us at [email protected] if it's not time-sensitive. We're a small kitchen — we answer the phone between orders.

Takeout only. No delivery, no reservations, no table service. Read more about that on the takeout info page.

Get directions

How to get here

Four routes cover almost everyone. If you're local, you already know — if you're not, this will get you there without a wrong turn.

From the west

I-90 Westbound

Take Exit 277 (US-2 / Airway Heights / Fairchild AFB). Follow US-2 north for roughly four miles. We're on the left, just past the light at Ziegler Road.

From the east

I-90 Eastbound

Take Exit 272 or Exit 277 — either works. Follow signs to US-2 and head north. The drive takes about five minutes from the interchange.

From GEG

Spokane International

Exit the airport onto W Airport Drive, turn right onto US-2 West, and follow it about five minutes. We're on the right side of Sunset Highway.

From base

Fairchild AFB

Exit the base onto W Fairchild Blvd, turn right onto US-2 East, and follow it for about three minutes. We're on the right.

Never been to a taco shop like this? Here's the whole routine.

01

Order at the counter

No host, no waitstaff. Look at the board, tell the person at the register what you want. Ask if you're not sure — nobody's on commission.

02

Pay, then wait

Card or cash. Everything is made to order — a burrito takes 6–10 minutes, fries about the same. No heat lamps, no shortcuts.

03

Take it with you

Everything is packaged for takeout. A few counter stools if you want to eat in, but we're set up for people taking it home or to the car.

04

Come back

Most people do. Second visit, you know what you're getting. Third visit, the person at the counter remembers your name.

What to order on your first visit

Straight answers, no upsell. If you want more, the full menu is right there.

If you've never been

California Burrito and a horchata. That's the full experience in one order, and it's what made us.

If you're splitting

One California Burrito and one order of Carne Asada Fries, cut in half. Enough for two hungry adults.

If you're here at 7 AM

Breakfast Burrito with Chorizo. Most San Diego thing on the menu at sunrise. Add a Mexican Coke.

If you don't eat meat

Bean & Cheese Burrito with fries, or Cheese Quesadilla and Chips & Guacamole. More on dietary options.

Ready when you are.

Open every day from 6:30 AM until midnight. Pull off Sunset Hwy, park out front, and come hungry.
