The molcajete, a traditional Mexican dish, is described as absolutely massive, served boiling hot in a skull-shaped molcajete. It even comes with cactus, making it a unique and fun experience. While the molcajete is a recommended try, customers also suggest ordering other menu items, as the restaurant is known for its consistently excellent carne asada, flavorful beans and rice, as well as enchiladas and chile relleno.
