    Awesome food served up by an awesome crew. The burritos are proper tasty and will not leave you hungry. Great prices & student discount available (added if you even look like a student!).

    Get their giant burrito even if it's only you, it still taste amazing reheated. The cheese is what really made it worth it though, the sauce on the other hand was lacking somthing .

    The "super" was so fat in my hand and so delicious. I would frequent this place if I lived in San Jose.

    I think their sauce here might even rival the infamous La Vic's Orange Sauce! If you love a more smokier, chipotle taste, give Iguana's sauce a try on anything.

    I like to get their super quesadillas without salsa so it's not so messy. Carne asada and carnitas are my go to meats here.

    Try a Burritozilla, which is 5lbs of burrito for $18.75, recently featured on Man v. Food and other shows. Their regular burritos are $3.50 and tacos are $2.50, open late. Read more

    When ordering nachos, make sure you specify which kind of cheese you want. They give you nacho cheese by default.

    Everything is good and even better when you put a little orange sauce on it! If you've never tried orange sauce ask for some.

    If you're on your way to SF, you should make a quick stop and get the HUGE Burrito. But I do mean quick... SUPER-SKETCH neighborhood.

    ask for white cheese to be melted on your nacho fries... Nacho cheese will leave you with nacho fry soup towards the end of the plate! =\

    Get the nacho fries togo and the cheese on the side. Otherwise the nacho fries come drenched in cheese when ordering for sit-in.

    - You can ask for the orange sauce to be put inside your burrito when you order. (instead of only on the side)- Check the bulletin board for local events!

    For a more smokier sauce, go here and ask for their equivalent of "the orange sauce".
