What a hidden gem. This place is quietly some of the most authentic and soulful food I've found anywhere in Phoenix.

Little family-owned hole in the wall Mexican seafood restaurant, owned and run by a super nice family who genuinely loves food and has the talent and curiosity to always make it better. From the ingredients they use to the variety of sauces and preparations they pair with, this place just has an attention to detail and a level of care that is very rare to find any more, at any price. They travel frequently and bring back ideas and flavors from all regions of Mexico.

I've loved exploring the menu - the raw oysters preparados are fantastic, the varieties of fish tacos are fantastic (ask about versions that aren't on the menu!) Of course the cocktails and tostadas and aguachile are fantastic. For non-seafood eaters, don't be turned away; the non-seafood is fantastic! Carne asada tacos, birria, enchiladas, all are great. Even the chips are fantastic, I often ask them to bag me some to go.

The owner makes some of the best tiramisu I've found anywhere, and that's saying a lot. It's not pure traditional; he uses Mexican wafer cookies as the ladyfinger base, and it is amazing. Not super sweet, not cloying, with great aromatic flavor. It isn't always available, and there are always random off-menu items they make on Saturday just because they feel like it - ask about specials, you won't regret whatever they have on hand.

It's a hole in the wall. The location is a nondescript strip mall, the decor is minimal. The food and the family consistently make this one of the most satisfying dining stops I go to.

If you love food, eat here. Just try it, you'll be back.

Stumbled upon this place accidentally and it was the happiest accident I’ve made in a while. The owner, Albert, made this experience amazing before even getting the food as we were met with the warmest welcome. The food here is top tier, this is some of the best ceviche I’ve had in a very long time and the tacos here are to die for. I cannot recommend this place enough and will be back again with more people.

First time trying this! We had our nephew recommend it and we were on our way out of town to Sedona and wanted to give it a try. We ordered to go and I loved how they said "take a seat we will bring it you some chips and salsa because the steak burrito is made fresh so it will take some time" while sitting with the wife talking we had someone walk up and ask us if this was our first time here. We relied "yes, we live around the corner" and he asked "do you like fish? They then brought out fresh fish tacos for us on the house. This is the type of customer service I feel we are missing in today's society. It was good to see people still caring about experiences. The person who came up to ask us about our visit and the tacos name was Albert. He is the owner and I can really tell he is passionate about what he does and what he is trying to create in Chandler.

Try it out!

Food was absolutely delicious! The drinks even better. Absolutely recommend eating here. Just know that it can get very loud when it's very busy.

service was also very attentive, friendly, and helpful. This is one of those places that definitely deserves a glowing review and we will be coming back here again.
