My partner and I celebrated our anniversary dinner here. Each dish was unique and was a feast to the eyes and then the pallet. We tried a few dishes of that the Tom steak and birria.. they were both so good! Our drinks were delicious, mi marido and I both had their featured drink and a margarita and the only complaint is that our schedule didn't let us stay longer for another.We both are looking forward to coming back.

Good food, service, and presentation of dishes. Drinks were great as well. Awesome staff. At the time MP dishes were $54. Honestly, the only thing I would pass on is the cheesecake dessert as it didn't taste very fresh.Vegetarian options: Yucca fries and vegan option on birria tacos

I love the character of this place. It's located on the end of a motel and the decor is funky and fun. The service we received was great and the food was delicious. I highly recommend the tacos de birria. The mole recado with pork was tender and delicious. I loved the sauce. I would be interested to return and try it with the chicken.

Easily one of the best restaurants in Phoenix. We sampled them at the Devour event, and we knew we had to come back for more. We were not disappointed!

Me and my boyfriend came here on a saturday night with a reservation and LOVED it! We loved it so much, we brought his Grandma the next weekend! Atmosphere is lively but comforting. Alexis was a phenomenal waitress as well! Very knowledgeable, funny & friendly yet professional! She’s so sweet!The food was incredible. We got the birria tacos, steak frites and the ceaser summer salad. Alexis suggested the Black Pink and we were sold, definitely the standout dish of the night.Definitely try to make a reservation bc the place is so small, but the wait is totally worth it.

The vibes are great. The service was great. The food wasn't quite what I hoped. We got the mole flautas and a few small dishes, Unfortunately, the flautas were so hard that they were actually difficult to eat and mole wasn't as flavorful as I hoped. The yucca fries were great, and the tiramisu was excellent. The other dishes were more interesting than delicious. For the price and how far out we had to make a reservation, I just expected a bit more. I'm glad we went once, but I don't think it'll make our regular list of local spots.

Overall the food was underwhelming, after reading a review on the place I was expecting something outstanding but was just above average at best!no coffee available to go with desert and extreme prices on some items made it a not going back experience! I don't like the bill in your face approach with not identifying price and prompting for gratuity! Too many better choices in downtown Phoenix!
The food was eloquent and authentic. Simply excellent! What impressed me was the FANTASTIC FOH team and their excellent service - Including the bar tender graciously and deliciously accommodating our requests.

The vibe was easygoing and relaxed. The food was tasty and didn’t feel like it was trying too hard, which is hard to pull of with newer restaurants. Our server was amazing, made sure we were well taken care of but didn’t hover. The cocktails were balanced and smooth. The chocolate cake was the best I’ve ever had, delectable but not overly sweet. The owner was working the line, which I love. Sweet Phoenix spot!

Super rude and unwelcoming to new customers. Even tho the restaurant was completely empty when we arrived. We left.

This was maybe the best meal I've eaten since moving to Phoenix in 2021. The food was spectacular. The service was efficient and helpful. Great cocktails. I can't wait to go back.
Some interesting flavors but overpriced and a bit pretentious and self important. Burger bun was stale and crumbly, falling apart at each bite. Tacos were tasty interesting and filling.
