Great service and atmosphere! The food was very good and not your typical Mexican fare. It seemed elevated with interesting sauces. The green chili sauce was excellent. I liked that they have daily lunch specials and I will dine here again.

It was very quiet they had music playing. I sat at the bar, then empty restaurant it fills up in the late hours and the night, though I was able to get a beer while I was there the food like I said was excellent and it was very quiet, quaint, and I enjoyed myself while I was there

Shout out to earlier review— single-use plastics are garbage that is filling our lands, our oceans and now plastics are found in our blood streams and our guts .. you can’t really justify using all that plastic just to keep the green chile out of the rice??
