    Some kind of shredded chicken with mole sauce (with chocolate!). Not as expected. Spicy but good. The waitress was super! Nice place. Great atmosphere.

    Open for dinner and weekend brunch. So few items contain gluten, it made more sense to mark the ones that do rather than ones that are gluten-free. Very affordable and have a great drink selection.

    Ceviche is light, springy, fresh, white fish with lemony spinach. Cochinita pibil slow cooked. Ask for the whipped orange habanero on the side, a bit on a single prong of a fork multiplied each bite.

    Not your average Mexican restaurant. Try anything with shrimp and the best corn on the con I have ever eaten.

    Chile verde is delicate & spicy. Close my eyes and imagine am in a refined eatery in Guadalajara.

    Chili Relleno! Habanero salsa packs heat with flavor.

    Not what you expect to find in a Mexican Restaurant... They have all the traditional ingredients but what you see and what you eat is a little bit different.

    We had a large group, think the food suffered as a result. Has promise, though. Run by an Indian (punjab).
