Mike ReidJanuary 3, 20125 taco mini sampler was yummo! 1 lamb, 1 carnitas, 1 fish, 1 beef, and 1 pork w/pineapple! Soft (corn) tortilla and flavorful!! Add a couple margaritas and now we're talking!! Woot!Upvote1Downvote
Michael QuisaoDecember 20, 2012The mariscos burachos is spectacular. Mounds of shrimp, scallops, and calamari in a cream sauce with mezcal and Pernod. Order it with a side of fresh corn tortillas and die happy.UpvoteDownvote
Anything with mole sauce washed down with a margarita is a perfect combination here. The staff is also friendly and very consistent here. It is a great place to become a regular!Upvote1Downvote

MamaOctober 3, 2011Great food. Although I miss the sopes!! The only place with warm salsa (and yes places in Mexico serve it that way).UpvoteDownvote
Washingtonian MagazineNovember 22, 2011The kitchen’s skill is evident in its mole, a sauce that involves no fewer than 15 ingredients and lots of hours. The rich and nutty version here comes ladled over chicken enchiladas.Upvote2Downvote
Sean McManusOctober 1, 2011I live for the Masitas de Puerco (spicy broiled pork). It's just about my favorite dish anywhere. Do yourself a favor.Upvote2Downvote

Eduardo SaltelliJuly 22, 2011For lovers of spice, ask for the Habanero sauce. Just make sure you have a full glass of water for the first taste!UpvoteDownvote

Lorean BradleyJuly 14, 2012Pass on the ceviche... Not enough seafood... All tomatoes n onion.. Had potential w/spicy flavor but very few pieces of shrimp. Mojito was great on the positive side.
