We visited twice, once for drinks the next for drinks and food. Fun atmosphere and great food. We had the soups with a bloody Mary for breakfast. We did feel better after our visit

Must try the carrot harrisa hummus and the hatch apple pie. Enjoyed the fish tacos too. Amazing variety of healthy yet delicious non-alcoholic drinks as well as super fresh craft cocktails. Can't wait to come back.

This place looks great. It’s very kid friendly. However the food is not very fresh. The food looks “healthy” The price is outrageous.

When you ask for a bean-less burrito and they decide to give you an extreme amount of beans instead 💀💀💀💀 more like house of BEANS

Only one guy at our table got his order correct, except it took an hour for him to get his CANNED beer

One person ordered a taco plate, only got one taco. Another person at our table ordered the same exact thing and got multiple. 💀💀💀

Hi!!!
OG green Chile kitchen girl here. I lived off Laguna and Grove and frequently went to GCK bc I am from El Paso, Tx. You can’t find New Mexican food anywhere in NorCal so when I found out you opened this I was so excited, especially bc I now live in Santa Rosa. I was so excited. Had the green chile stew. As good as I remembered it! Loved the enchiladas. It was great! Will you ever bring back the stuffed green chile and Sopaipillas? You can’t find a real sopaipillas w honey anywhere in NorCal. Please do! Thank you so much!! Service was fantastic too :) we dined in and I took no pictures bc I just wanted to eat 😋

I got the taco salad, which was flavorless. I'm not a person who needs something to be intensely flavored. There simply was none. Ordered water, nobody brought it to the table. My spouse got something else and it was better, but not exceptional in line with the prices. This place is for people with too much money and no knowledge of Mexican/Southwestern food.

The bright spot was the pecan pie. The filling was perfection--not too sweet like most pecan pie, and much more complex. Definitely large enough to share, as well. Unfortunately, the crust was very much overworked and therefore quite tough.

Overall, a disappointing experience. I don't understand the high praise from other diners.

Vegetarian options: Plentiful

Dietary restrictions: They are very clear that they are not a gluten-free kitchen, which is appreciated. Food is clearly labeled.

Wheelchair accessibility: I do not use a wheelchair, but from the parking lot to the seating is all one level with no stairs.

If I could rate above 5 stars I would. The food was delicious, the staff went above and beyond, and the atmosphere was amazing. The chef especially was very kind and went the extra mile for us. The space is good for kids to run around. Gluten free options. Healthy drinks!

The avocado toast was phenomenal and I was able to get my eggs cooked without butter, which satisfied my lactose intolerant requirements. My partner had the burrito with both green and red Chile sauces, avocado, and the carne adovado. He was incredibly satisfied with his meal and topped it off with the chocolate pecan pie. The pie had a satisfyingly thin crust and was perfectly balanced in terms of sweetness. The ambience was also great and the place was dog friendly.

The food was okay, the service was disappointing!
Even though I paid a 10% service charge, there was no service at all.
We clean the table, pick up the cutlery, and pour the water ourselves.

The service was very bad. We tried to request to clean the table so that we can be seated. However, we waited for around 10 minutes and the waiters showed us some attitudes.
