I attended a holiday party here and I was very impressed by the excellent food and great service. I wanted to come back and this evening we did! We started off with the Corn Esquites. That paired with the house nachos and salsa, the appetizer was delicious. The exquisite flavor of Mexican street corn on a mound of rich, textured, guacamole was a delightful combination. For the main course, I ordered the Tacos Tinga and my sidekick ordered the Seafood Chili Relleno. The tacos consisted of a corn tortilla topped with fresh shredded chicken, hand-chopped lettuce, and crema fresca, you know, the kind abuelita used to make. The Seafood Chili Relleno was a seafood lover's delight! With the right amount of spice and the perfect blend of seafood, this dish would certainly make Tony Minadakis jealous! We were served three different types of salsa--the house salsa, an habanero salsa, and more mild tomatillo salsa--and all three were outstanding! The house salsa has a unique rustic and earthy flavor that truly matches the décor and overall atmosphere of the restaurant. And for the final round, our server, Celfy, recommended the Churros. The four hot churros came with a side of melted chocolate and cajeta for dipping and although we are quite full, there is always room for dessert! I have lived in California and traveled through Mexico and had the pleasure of eating at many fine authentic Mexican restaurants. I can say this establishment is on par with some of the best Mexican food I have had. Because everything is homemade, you can customize your selection, making them even more appealing. Don't like onions or cilantro? Don't enjoy spicy food? No problem! They will customize your food how you like it! I recommend this place and will certainly dine here again. Thank you for a great evening!

We enjoyed this place. We tried the tortilla soup and pork taco. Both were good. Spicy margarita was good. We were overcharged for our drinks but they attempted to make it right (final price was close but still not correct). Service was great. I would recommend this place. UPDATE: We went back for taco Tuesday. They had great prices on tacos and drinks.

We had a fantastic Sunday brunch for a group of 14! The server, while not Latino, provided excellent service. The food arrived in a very reasonable amount of time, considering the large group.

Everything tasted good overall, but the Chicken and Waffles could have used a bit more excitement. It felt a little bland and the chipotle flavor wasn't very noticeable.

Maybe a spicier sauce or a sprinkle of chili flakes on the table would be a great way to kick things up a notch!
