I tried this restaurant for the first time last Saturday and was so impressed with the quality of the food and extensive menu. I think it is my new favorite local restaurant and I plan to visit often. I wanted to try everything! We got the blue corn quesadilla with huitlacoche, and another quesadilla with squash blossoms (flor de calabaza), and mushroom papusas (hongos). Those were all vegetarian. The huitlacoche was my favorite, the flavor was really good and just the right amount of filling and cheese. Very good quality and the portions are huge, well worth the price. I also tried the huarache with pastor, it was the best I've ever had (and I've had a lot, including in CDMX). I also got an order of birria papusas, the meat and consume were perfect, again, some of the best I've ever had. Lastly, we tried the plantain empanadas (empanadas de platano) for desert and they were also delicious. We really liked the salsas as well, the orange one is spicy. I can't wait to come back. Wish I took pictures for the review but I was too busy eating!

Sadly my whole order was wrong, they forgot my drink, also side of beans, and overall the food was not the best! Customer service is great 👍

There is no prices on the menu or anywhere, which is quite awkward. Similar thing by Peter’s Bakery. It is quite awkward to ask for the price of the things in the menu! It could be nice if this can get improved. Service was slower than expected.
Place was quite clean.
Food was quite delicious though :) I would recommend for authentic food testing. Enchiladas were awesome. Tacos very quite okay as well. Not my most favorite though.

Terrible service. I advise you not to visit this place
Be careful when they pay because they give you extra coverage on Monday, September 2, 2024. It was a bad experience. The waiter Adrian treated us, gave us bad service and the cashier overcharged you.
I don't plan to return to that place again...!

Bad experience, it took a long time. It smells bad in the parking lot. They made a mistake on my order and the waitress offered no option to correct the error. There are no prices on the menu

There is a very unpleasant smell 🤢 in the parking lot.
The restaurant opens the doors and the smell of the parking lot comes inside along with many insects.
The restaurant needs more cleaning inside and outside.

The food is good but because of that smell it makes it difficult for me to go back.

Lately it's a rubbish place, it's expensive and apart from the takeout orders they don't give anything or straws for the water, the pupusas alone don't give curtido or salsa several times I do the same thing, it's assumed that's why they're charging and a guacamole that's all tight Just like the elbows of those who are starving, I won't stop there again.

Pzz today I had to go to eat at that restaurant, the food was very good ? but the customer service is terrible, they give you the food but they never ask if you are offered something like in other restaurants that I have been to eat

I went to eat here with my family and didn't like the food. Everything was too salty, and they took out their own tip without letting me know, charging me $15 for a beverage I didn't order. Trying to get a second tip, of which the service wasn't good. I wouldn't recommend this place.
