The food was fantastic. I got the chicken burrito bowl and my husband got the steak burrito w/fries. Everything was so flavorful. The amount of food in that bowl was incredible. Couldn't Even finish it, it was sooooo good. Even the fries had a great taste. For drinks hubby got green tea and I got the strawberry lemonade. You could tell everything was freshly made. We will be back.

The service is good, and the staff are lovely people. But the star of the show is the food - specifically the mole. The owners are from the part of Mexico that mole comes from, and they use an old recipe to make their mole poblano, which is served with half a chicken and is enough for two meals. Nice job, La Catrina.
