Gluten free. Shrimp appetizer. From the pacific coast of Mexico, ceviche blends cooked shrimp, avocado and fresh diced tomatoes with lime, cilantro and spices. Typically enjoyed with tostadas or tortilla chips. You can also eat it just as is or on a bed of greens.
Queso Con Chorizo
Gluten free. Cheese with Mexican sausage. Traditionally called queso fundido in Mexico, it is a blend of cheese with different toppings. We offer one of the favorites: chorizo, a sausage made with pork, red peppers and spices with a very unique Mexican flavor. You melt this cheese on corn or flour tortillas to make quesadillas, on corn chips to make nachos, or on a baguette to make molletes! Also very tasty scrambled with eggs.

Queso Con Poblano
Vegetarian. Gluten free. Cheese with poblano peppers. Another version of queso fundido, this is a cheese blended with poblano peppers. Similar use as the queso con chorizo, it is perfect for making quesadillas, nachos or molletes! Also very tasty when scrambled with eggs.

Soups

Sopa De Tortilla
Gluten free. Vegan/vegetarian options. Tortilla soup. A traditional soup from central Mexico, it is a tomato-based broth with lean shredded chicken breast, yellow corn kernels and crispy tortilla strips. Serve with a dollop of fresh cream provided. We recommend adding thin-sliced avocado for a traditional touch.

Side Dishes
Arroz Con Maiz
Gluten free, vegetarian. A traditional dish from central Mexico. This creamy rice is blended with yellow corn making it very versatile. It is our most popular side dish and a family favorite.
Frijoles Refritos

Main Dishes
Chilaquiles Verdes
Gluten free. Layered chicken green enchiladas. Layered corn tortillas with a flavorful green tomatillo salsa and shredded chicken breast, topped with fresh cream and cheese... Ready to bake in your oven for a perfect meal! Goes well with the rice and corn side dish, your mix of salad greens with our cilantro salsa, and/or with a bean side dish.
Budin Azteca
Gluten free. Layered pork carnitas red enchiladas. Similar to chilaquiles verdes, this traditional dish has been made in Mexican kitchens for centuries. The sauce is made with guajillo peppers very colorful but typically not spicy layered with corn tortillas, shredded lean pork carnitas and topped with fresh cream and cheese. Great served with the rice and corn, bean side dish and/or mix of greens with our cilantro salsa. Most of the time is it mild but occasionally might turn out spicy due to the natural variations of the chile.
Pollo Con Adobo
Gluten free. Layered chicken adobo enchiladas. This dish is made with an exquisite traditional tangy-sweet adobo sauce, layered corn tortillas, shredded chicken breast, fresh cream and cheese. Goes well with the rice and corn side dish, your mix of salad greens with our cilantro salsa.
Chiles Anchos en Salsa Verde
Gluten free, vegetarian. Cheese stuffed peppers with creamy green salsa. Another delicious dish from central mexico, these peppers are filled with queso fresco and baked in a flavorful creamy tomatillo-based salsa. Few people realize that ancho peppers are dried poblano peppers, so as with the fresh counterpart, this dish may or may not be mild.
Puerco Con Poblano
Gluten free. Lean shredded pork carnitas in a delicious creamy poblano sauce. Poblano peppers are indigenous from the state of Puebla in Mexico. These peppers tend to be mild but occasionally and unpredictable a poblano may be spicy, so this dish may not be mild all the time. A great dish to make tacos, or simply serve with the rice and corn side dish.

This dish is typically described as medium-spicy.

We ended up hosting a potluck, but I kept circling back to look at all of the super cool vegan options that they had available.
