Danitza is amazing as usual. This is one of the best gallo giros in the valley & it’s been here ever since I was a little kid. The bread is super savory and fresh, the drinks are real fruit and amazing, and the meat here tastes like it came straight out of a carne asada. The absolute best & friendly.
