1010 I had the Steak and Shrimp Al Diablo Tacos. It was freshly made and was really good. I paired it with a refreshing Watermelon Frescas and a side of Tortilla Chips. The lady who took my order was very friendly and accomodating. Amazing food and excellent customer service. Will definitely come back.

Wonderful little Mexican casual bistro, spotlessly clean and airy, bright and cheerful. The best shrimp burrito Ive ever had, so the menu definitely needs further exploration. Excellent for solo dining, takeout, or groups. Service is very quick, friendly, and efficient. A great find in this area.

Came here on a recommendation from my barber when my brother was in town and was very pleasantly surprised. Its good food, period. Actually also, its a lot of food which is also good. Sometimes you just want a huge burrito with a salsa bar with multiple options and TLC delivers.
