Our go-to starter is the Coliflor, but that Chile Relleno is outstanding too. If surf and turf is your jam, I recommend ordering the Carne Asada and the Pulpo. And while you're waiting, try the Surf and Turf taco, which is a combo of shrimp, chorizo, and potatoes.

The Calabaza (mushroom risotto with truffle oil in a roasted acorn squash with spicy sauces) was so good! I was just coming back to make a reservation with my family there for tonight. Very good food and we had the margaritas which were delicious too!

We enjoyed the chili relleno, hummus, carne asada, taquitos, and surf and turf tacos. All were outstanding. Chili relleno and carne asada were highlights. Service was good…maybe a little too much. We felt rushed a couple of times. We’ll definitely return!

However, this visit was disappointing. The wait staff seemed bored, and added nothing to the experience. I had requested a window table, but was told the empty one available was for a party of 3 or more. We were seated at a table right next to one with 3 small children, even though at least 4 other tables were available. The food was good, but I don't think I'll be going back.

Food prices were reasonable and average. But $4 for a glass of orange juice? Brightly decorated with lots of color. Too many hard surfaces make for a noisy atmosphere. Dining in mid-afternoon when it is slower would be more enjoyable for conversation. Overall, I would visit again.

My friends were happy with the table in the window and we didn’t feel rushed. One friend had not been there before. It gets very loud when it gets busier which was the case about half way through our visit. My whole family loves this place and I truly appreciate the multiple vegetarian options.

We had chicken taquitos, shrimp tacos , and Chile Relleno. We also received a complimentary tasting cup of cream of broccoli soup. The taquitos came artfully stacked on a plate of green salsa and were topped with shredded cabbage. The sauce made the chicken filling delicious. The tacos came with a filling of cubed potatoes and shrimp on a blue corn tortilla. It was tasty. The best was the Chile Relleno. The Chile was stuffed to the max with a yummy filling and on a bed of creamy sauce. This all went down easy with a great tequila margarita.

I had a cocktail made with mezcal. It was quite good! We ordered hummus as an appetizer. It was served with what appeared to be a large homemade corn tortilla and was portioned perfectly so that there was plenty to eat with the hummus. Delicious! I had the Calabaza squash with mushroom risotto. It was bursting with flavor and served perfectly hot. My husband had the Barbacoa (lamb shanks) with sweet potato risotto. He loved it. We completed our meal by sharing one churros with dulcet de lèche to dip it in. What a wonderful meal! Thanks to Daniel (our waiter) and compliments to the chef!
