Food:

Its tasty and cheap Mexican. I especially like the Montezuma's Revenge, with sides of Noro Virus topped with Salmonella and perfectly seasoned with floor spices.

I used to eat there once a week due to is proximity to my work on the weekends. Then one day back in January, I got the fajita chicken salad and it tasted off. I spent the next day and night in the hospital puking my guts out and was diagnosed with having contracted the Noro Virus and acute food poisoning. I have done what I can to avoid this place since. Yesterday I was at a party that had used Gallo Giro to cater food. I was unaware until I had already ingested some. Now today I am suffering from Montezuma's Revenge and feel like crap.

If you are confused by the 3 stars even after all the bad, it is due to the fact they were good. I don't know if they just stopped cleaning or cooking food 100% or what, but now if I were you, I would avoid this place like the plague. Or have an Iron stomach. To put it into perspective, I would rather eat Taco Bell than Gallo Giro simply because I know the next day I will not be spending my day on the toilet.
