Review: Rafa’s Mexican Food

Yelp is a goldmine when it comes to finding gas station taco places. Finding a taco worth reviewing in a city one is not familiar with can be a treacherous proposition, but thanks to some unknown food reviewers on a local review website it can be mitigated. Rafa’s Mexican Food is housed inside a very […]
