Fantastic food and great service. The mole (I had carnitas with mole Amarillo) was absolutely delicious, with four different... kinds on the menu. I’ll definitely be back! Read more
Great hole-in-the-wall find with unique "Special of the Day!" The staff was super nice and accommodating. Drinks and food did... not disappoint! The place was clean with fun vibes. We'll be back when visiting. Read more
Well, after debating for weeks to come here we finally did...and we're disappointed. We were the only table there on a wknd, for... dinner (not a great sign). Greeted fairly fast and drinks were quick, so everything was on the right track. Tried to order thesingle $25 beef fajitas and I asked what came with it. Beef, onions and tortillas. No sides - no set-up (guac, pico and sc),beans or rice. Fine, I ordered pork enchiladas with verde mole. The wife ordered chicken amarillo mole. Took about 45 minutesfor the meal to come (again, only table) and when it finally arrive, it was lukewarm at best - both dishes. Unexcitable limitedmenu at best (far different from what was online). I wont pay, what was nearly a $100 for mediocre food again. I tipped wellbecause the FOH service was decent. Wont be back. Read more
I was greeted by the owner himself who gave me the Down Low on the history of the place and recommendations, I opted for the... Caldo de Rez which turned to be the most flavorful with the most tender meat ever!...my mouth still waters when I think ofit...yum!! Read more

Mole specialty. I’m not a big fan of this specialty. I’d say it was better than Sol Agave and cheaper. Cash only. Not busy.... Not much signage. Read more
