We are thrilled to have a great Mexican restaurant in our neighbourhood! We have been about 6 times since they opened in December - I can confirm that Brunch, Lunch, Happy Hour and Dinners are all fantastic! Truly authentic Mexican food and fantastic Margaritas and Palomas!!!!! The serving staff & bartenders are great. I forgot to take photos the other trips …but, here our breakfast from today (Chicken Enchiladas, Huarache Con Cochinita & Huevos Rancheros)

I would never recommend this place for someone who wants to try real Mexican food.
There is a big lack of Mexican food, they try to do all more elaborate and complicated when the most beautiful things in traditional Mexican food are way more simple and delicious. The Huaraches I ordered were though and the chorizo was too dry, the rice has nothing to do with Mexican rice. I would say for siders they were not too bad, but honestly is not a place I would recommend or try again.

It was my first time here, and everything was amazing! Yesterday my boyfriend and I ordered the mole tasting as an appetizer, the Carmela Combo (Molcajete + 2 spicy margaritas), and an extra cocktail — the Pasilla Sour (I loved it!). OMG, everything was absolutely delicious. The spicy margaritas were a bit sour, but not too spicy, which we actually enjoyed. The atmosphere was great — a bit busy, but lively — and our server was super friendly and attentive.
I totally recommend this place, and we’ll definitely be back!

Delicious authentic Mexican food, generous portions, and great service. We really enjoyed our meal, and our server was super kind and helpful. The corn ribs (not pictured) were excellent. Lovely atmosphere and decor as well.

The ambiance was lovely. The décor struck a pleasant balance between festive and elegant—for an anniversary dinner you want something that feels elevated, but still comfortable and relaxing. Soft lighting, tasteful Mexican accents, and a low hum of conversation created a cozy, joyful vibe. The music was well chosen—background enough to enjoy conversations, but with cultural touches that made the setting feel authentic and warm.

I used to come here when it was a pub and I like what they've done with the place. The atmosphere is nice. The server was great and I can't complain about the food. I've only had one thing off the menu though, gringas, so the jury is out whether that was the best thing or we'll have to wait and see. I would definitely go back.

Had Fish tacos and they tasted like they came out of a microwave, very chewy battered fish, miniature slice of avocado, some cabbage. Not the best tacos in town

YUM! Loved this restaurant, would come back again and again if we lived in the area. Food was delicious sourced with the freshest of ingredients available. Presentation was delightful. Service was attentive and friendly. Ambience was chic. Best meal of our vacation week. There with 2 couples and we were all very happy. Wow!

Came here for their happy hour a few days ago and it was pretty good! The food was good, but nothing super special. The drinks were good as well. Very fun vibes and a cool atmosphere. Unfortunately the service was not great, seemed like our server forgot about us for majority of our dinner. Then we kept trying to flag her down for the check... took about 20 minutes to get it! Besides that, we had a nice time. Go check it out!
