However, some customers report problems. The store opens at 6am but often does not have food like carnitas, menudo, or tacos ready for early morning customers, with service described as terrible in terms of timing. Some items, like bolillos, are criticized for no longer having the same consistency and having a very unpleasant flavor, lacking their former distinguishing seal.
