I am reminded of the old SNL skit ... the one in the restaurant with Adam Sandler's character asking the woman contantly 'do you like-a-da sauce?' ... give this place a try, you might love the orange...

Really overrated. By far one of the worse Mexican Restaurants I know. Sauce is okay, not the "best thing ever". Without the sauce, the restaurant would have probably gone out of business years ago....

Not to repeat what Jessica L. has said, but it is true that La Vic's is slightly overrated and that hole-in-the-wall places serve better Mexican food. The food is still good, and the hours are great...

The previous reviewers who gave this place 3 stars really need a reality check. No one in their right mind would consider this place "good" or even average. If you've eaten at a couple burrito places...
