Just found out about this restaurant so my family and I decided to try it out and WOW. From the moment I took a bite of their tortilla chips I knew this place was gonna be great. And great it was. My family is Oaxaqueño so we obviously eat a lot of Oaxacan food and have high expectations, but this place far exceeded our expectations. A new favorite, for sure!
Family-owned and packed with flavor. I tried their wet burrito with carnitas and was amazed — it’s massive and perfectly balanced. Their agua frescas are always freshly made and refreshing. It’s a casual place with welcoming service. Prices are fair for how much food you get. It’s become a weekly stop for me.
The main dishes were pretty good tasting. The rice was plain instead of the Spanish or Mexican style rice other Mexican restaurants have served. The drinks they had were only traditional Mexican drinks with no refills. The parking is bad with only street parking available.
