    My favorite is the Pork Guajillo Pinchos. But you cant go wrong with any of the options. Though, that red tempura shrimp with their aioli is an amazing as well in the taco format.

    The eggplant bocadillo is the best vegetarian sandwich. These guys work long hours to make stellar from scratch food you wont find anywhere

    Amazing flavors but I keep coming back for their green tempura tilapia and red tempura shrimp tacos... they're truly something to experience.

    You can order anything and cannot go wrong. I would recommend eggplant fries over regular fries! Yummy!

    The Pork Guajillo Bocadillo is fork tender and the sleeper hit is the lightly fried eggplant bocadillo with chimichurri aioli. Read more

    Be prepared to wait. Food is good but the kitchen seems to be fully disorganized and has no sense of urgency. Still, worth it if you are willing to put in a bit of time.
