I am a Gringo, but kind of an expert with Mexican Food and my Spouse is from Oaxaca, Mexico. We ate here Sunday,September 07th, 2025, around dinner time; it was our first visit. The food was very good! BYOB,Good Food with a nice presentation, Spicy Salsa! This is one of the only places in the area to find Mole Oaxaqueno, the spicy chocolate sauce, with dozens of ingredients in it. It has nuts in it so avoid if allergic to nuts. The Enchildas de Mole Oaxaqueno con Pollo ( chicken ) was very good, of course comes with rice, beans, and salsa verde (green) and roja (red). Delicious!!! Good portions! The rice and beans were tasty. Server although not overly friendly, was attentive. Cons: Street parking can be tight. Bathroom could definitely be maintained cleaner, hand dryer not working a
Wow, what an amazing place. The menu is huge. Drinks are awesome and friendly staff. Highly recommended. 👏
Horrible food only ever went for pollo a la brasa but they had me messed up i got food that was already eaten!! They left bones that were clearly eaten already my taco asada was burnt ! They over charge on stuff all the time.
I'm highly annoyed right now. The last time we ate from this place, it was really good. So I reordered what I pretty much got last time. The caldo de Camaron not only wasn't full (it was like an 1 1/2- 2 in from the top...last time it was full....), It literally had no flavor. It was soooo bland. I am so upset I drove 2 hours for this food for it to taste like it wasn't even seasoned. So SO upset. Why wasn't it filled either? The other thing is, last time they were tortillas de Mano (handmade tortillas), this time they were some store brand. Ugh. Why change it up so much?? I would expect a $16 soup to be fresh handmade tortillas like last time. That was so disappointing to me. Idk if they switched cooks or were having a lazy day, but this is unacceptable to go so much from one extreme to a
Disgusting just like their attitudes. How do you serve spoiled food and not refund 🤔 would not recommend. I would negative if I could. BTW it's not the first time this happens 🙃 your employees need to be trained better and stop with the attitudes when approached in a calm manner.
