Customer Reviews
Food was very flavorful. We ordered the mole chilaquiles, pipián chilaquiles, huevos en salsa and pancakes. The mole chilaquiles had a great balance between spicy and sweet, the pipián chilaquiles were rich and savory. The cecina was perfectly cooked. The pancakes did not need any syrup since they are drizzled in lechera. The huevos en salsa were also a hit. The rice and beans were delicious! We also ordered cafe de olla but I was not impressed. The spices were a bit overpowering. I definitely recommend coming in and trying it out.
This was my second time here and both times was amazing. The service is top tier and the food is the best, I’ve never found a restaurant where I enjoyed the mole but it’s my favorite thing to order here. We also got the arroz con leche de fresa but I didn’t get the chance to take the picture before we finished it. Highly recommend this place.
The food was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. Every dish was well-seasoned, fresh, and thoughtfully prepared. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients, and the balance of flavors made each bite enjoyable. Portions were generous, presentation was great, and the overall experience was very satisfying. Definitely a place worth coming back to! Yum!
Such a great new spot! Friendly staff and high-quality service. It’s refreshing to find a business that puts so much heart into what they do. Delicious dishes. Wishing them much success — they’ve earned a loyal customer!
The best chilaquiles. I went with my mom since she saw it on Tiktok. Parking wasn’t bad and it wasn’t that busy. Price was reasonable and the servers were lovely. Will go again 😊
