It feels like being in Mexico!!! We went once and went back because of the great experience we had.
So far one of the best Mexican restaurants we had ever tried around Norway, so it is a must visit if you want to get greatly surprised.
Amazing food, amazing service, good quality drinks.
Book in advance since it is normally pretty full

Interesting place! Located above another classic Oslo restaurant, this place has a good location. The space is welcoming, but seems a little half-done when you walk up the stairs. Fantastic staff! I've never tried Mexican fine dining, so I went for a 5 course set menu. Every course had a unique taste of Mexico and everything was good. Interesting textures and fun combination, but none of the dishes impressed in any way. For a 1100 NOK meal, I had hoped for more in terms of the food. Overall a good experience but not entirely sure that this qualifies as fine dining? A little on the expensive side for what you get and it's rare I feel the need for more food after a 6 course meal. In this case, the main course was too small to be a full meal so I had to grab something on the way home as well.

My Mexican friend recommended this place and took us there on a Wednesday because that’s the day you can get Tacos al Pastor. They are so so so good! The cochinita pibil is also amazing, but It’s hard to beat those tacos al pastor. The service is very friendly and the atmosphere very chill. If you don’t know what dessert to try, the answer is Buñuelos.
