Food is decent when they get your order right. Service is terrible, worst I've experienced in LA.

It took an hour waiting for a to-go order. When I got home they had given me the wrong order and when I came back to tell them they were dismissive and unapologetic and refused to right the error. When I asked to speak to the manager they pretended she wasn't there. All of this drama over a burrito? I used to be a regular at this place bc the food is good but the service is non-existent. Won't be returning.

Okay, Mexican food is not in my top five favorite foods, but I do enjoy it. This place is unique with several of their dishes including a duck burrito, first I've ever seen. I think what was outstanding here too was the simple excellent quality of guacamole and they're outstanding margaritas! They have a margarita flight, though I don't drink, my friends thought it was excellent! This seems to be an Eagle Rock favorite and there's typically a line out the door. Service is always been excellent, been here twice, and I would definitely visit again.

Wonderful restaurant. They have some really good oaxacan dishes. Mole is really good. Their enchiladas are also great. Nice! Little happy hour here too highly recommend

Best salsa in town! But ~$9 is way too high for a bag of chips. Inflation, gentrification; whatever it is, that’s too high. Good food overall though

After driving by for years and admiring the exterior color and architecture of this gem, I finally stopped in! I ordered 3 street tacos - Carne asada, Coliflor Rojo and fried avocado. All there were yummy but for me I ended on the Carne asada because they were so deliciously juicy!
I had the Doyer blue margarita and it went down like water! It was dangerously good!
Vanessa brought great energy and service to the table! Her contagiously lovely disposition and a menu to explore further will have me going back soon! It was a good night out!

Food is inconsistent, the bus lady cleans tables touches face and hair while also wrapping utensils in paper napkin WITHOUT gloves or washing hands!!!!

Old school neighborhood Mexican is in one half, the other half is a full bar. Good is good but a little pricey. $20-30/person.

Very tasty food. The lamb taco is good, and we also had the bone marrow sopes which is very tasty. Chips is not free but very high quality. Highly recommend the seared fish taco as well.

An unforgettable culinary gem in Eagle Rock!
Our friend who lives in the neighborhood has been raving about this place since we met him, and when we finally found ourselves in the area, we had to check it out — and wow, it absolutely lived up to the hype.
Everything we ordered was bursting with flavor and creativity. I had the Chile Relleno, and it was out of this world — perfectly cooked, nestled in a beautiful and spicy green sauce that brought everything together. Truly an unusually delightful experience — nothing was basic or average here.
You can taste the care, artistry, and love that go into the food. We left completely satisfied and already planning our next visit. A must-try for anyone who loves bold, elevated Mexican cuisine done right. 🌶️❤️

The food was sooo good in a way that’s not just your typical Mexican restaurant. So much flavor and the people working there are so friendly! Even their chips and salsa were so interesting and delicious. I could come here over and over again!
