Service here was excellent. I came for Sunday dinner and they had live music which was nice. They give you chips and salsa when you sit down but they aren’t the best (lacking flavor), however don’t let that deter you. The hot sauces the provide are amazing (especially if you like your food very spicy). The agua frescas are made in house and the Pina (pineapple) was excellent and not too sweet. The chicken mole tamale was one I’ve never had, but the chicken was tender, juicy, and the mole was very flavorful. A must to order is the Torta. One of the best I had and the steak was tender, with very soft bread and melty cheese. The fried tilapia was also a fan favorite, the fish came out crispy with lots of sides and fresh tortillas. Their main seller, the tlayudas were huge. I tried the chorizo version and it was cooked well where the chorizo had moisture (it’s hard to find chorizo that isn’t overcooked).

The music may be a little loud by some people standards, but everyone inside the restaurant loved it. Next time I'm in Dorville, this is where I'm going. Please check them out, you will not be...
Read moreA+++ This place is fantastic! The verde and mole tamales were delicious, and you must try the tlayuda for two which is like a crispy giant quesadilla loaded with meats and vegetables. The hostess was able to explain some dishes for us and make recommendations. The owner, Apolinar, greeted us after our meal and let us try some fried crickets (chapulines)! It was such a treat to go to an authentic Oaxacan restaurant! But don't be bashful, you can still get the standard Mexican fare that you find at other tex mex restaurants, but...
