    They may not have many vegetarian options, but the 3 we tried are really solid choices. Potato tostadas, quesadillas and mushroom empanadas were really great! Nice use of flavorful salsa & texture.

    They don't have the "mini-tlayudas" on the menu because they don't always have them available. But if you are in luck and they have them, you must try them!

    Oaxacan food is a specialty - that's the beauty of it! Don't expect typical burritos, tacos, & nachos of Mexican food you can get anywhere.

    Nice mole sauce - I hope they'll use it in a few more dishes (vegetarian too please!) & hope they'll add veggie tacos to the list

    Sauces & beans are vegetarian; rice is not (chicken). They'll happily modify menu items for you, so just ask! Patio will be popular in great weather

    Pozole: just the right amount of herbs and chili powder. Lean pork is an added plus.

    The guacamole is a little bland. We mixed it with some salt and pico de gallo and it was much better!

    It's just ok, I prefer "cactus" or "fogon" for mexican places in Seattle.

    Not what I expected... You pay a lot for a little... I thought it was the opposite. My BF waiting 30+ to get a small portion of chicken in Mole sauce.
