We only stopped for a quick lunch on a lazy afternoon; the food was so good we ordered too much, and then ordered even more to take home for later.
The blue building is bright and colorful, with well-made ramps for folks with walking disabilities. The inside seems as massive as a Tardis and as comfortable as your favorite sofa. The wonderful food adds to the win and the perfect hostess turned this simple lunch into the perfect quadrifecta....
The menu is more than ample yet stops well short of listing every single Mexican possibility as some restaurants do. It seems the owners have chosen to list only the things they make fresh and make well. Thanks you! What a joy.
Great freshly made chips came with a mild red salsa. And a seriously hot, very hot sauce when I asked for it. I started with pozole verde, a personal fav, made here with hominy (huge corn kernels) in a rich chicken broth and seasoning, so good I barely missed the usual tomatillos. So good we bought more to take home...
I had carnitas tacos, Alicia opted for fish (cod) tacos on flour tortillas, both accompanied by the usual rice/beans/guacamole sides. My pork was rich and flavorful, neither dry nor greasy. Alicia's cod was crispy and lush and plentiful. Every bite far better than usual and stunningly fresh, too.
This Mexican eatery is definitely on my list of keepers. And well worth a trip cross-county or from almost anywhere in commuting distance. Yeah, it really is...
Read moreMy wife and I had a very disappointing dining experience today. We arrived at 5:30p with our 2-year-old and sat outside, where there were 2 other occupied tables (and inside had only a few occupied too). Our waitress was nice and took our order, and we got our drinks, tableside guac, and kid's burrito relatively quickly, but after that the service totally disappeared. No other appetizer, no entrees, no chips for the guac (just the few chips they had given us with the complimentary salsa), no water, no checking if we needed anything. After more than an hour, we asked a different waitress if our food was almost ready and she said "are you ready for your food now?" Um, yeah, obviously! A few minutes after that, with still no food, we asked the 2nd waitress to switch our food to go. Then a couple minutes after that, our original waitress appeared with the missing appetizer and one of our two entrees on regular plates. We told her that we asked to switch the order to go. She took it back and a few minutes later gave us all of our food packed up, with no explanation as to why it took so long and no apology. There's no reason a restaurant like this, especially when it wasn't busy at all, should take an hour and 15 minutes to serve a few simple dishes. Finally ate the food at home and it was fine... not bad, but nothing special. We won't...
Read moreI had the pleasure of dining at this beautiful restaurant on Saturday, and I can confidently say it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The ambiance was stunning—elegant, warm, and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing and enjoyable meal. The food was absolutely delicious! Every dish was full of flavor and beautifully presented. You can tell that a lot of care goes into the preparation and quality of the ingredients. From the appetizers to the main course, everything exceeded expectations. What really made the night special, though, was our server, Fabiola. She was hands down the best waiter I’ve ever had. She was respectful, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect throughout our visit. Fabiola did her job exceptionally well, with a friendly attitude and a professional touch that made us feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. Overall, this was a five-star experience. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great food, a beautiful setting, and outstanding service. Ask for Fabiola if you can—you won’t be...
