⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
By far the best mole in town, our favorite go to, to relax and enjoy our meal. The cucumber margaritas and watermelon margaritas are amazing. Also one of our favorite part is talking with the amazing owners, a husband and wife doing everything. Also so amazingly clean inside and outside. If you haven’t checked them out yet don’t walk, RUN. Because you seriously are missing out on this amazing family restaurant.
