“So delicious! Must try it.”

“Wow! That is all I can say. I have been to many restaurants in Mexico. Many others here in the USA but I have to say that I would give this restaurant five stars (5 star as highest rating) Why? The cuisine is the best, taste is key, and freshness can be felt on the taste. I know what a fresh tortilla tastes like, if it was made from specific grains and if any kind of flour was mixed in. They are the best tortillas I have tasted so far from a USA restaurant. Of course, I would say there is always something any restaurant can improve. If there red salsa can be spicy that would be great! ( salsa asked on the side for the spicy lovers). (the drinks with the popsicles are a plus on your IG pg. and made to perfection).”

“Favorite dish !! Such a beautiful take on octopus , so tender it melts in your mouth and the chocolate mole and micro greens are the perfect addition . I order this dish all the time , I love it with a side of their house made Chile oil / salsa ! I have even told they handmade their salsa with almond /oil . So so good !”

“The Sopes Benny came as a recommendation ration from the waitress and was amazing! The meat was very moist and tender. The sauce had the little kick of spice yet not overwhelming. Not to mention how beautifully plated the dish was. Definitely a 10/10!!”
