I am a Gringo, but kind of an expert with Mexican Food and my Spouse is from Oaxaca, Mexico.

We ate here Sunday,September 07th, 2025, around dinner time; it was our first visit.
The food was very good!

BYOB,Good Food with a nice presentation, Spicy Salsa!

This is one of the only places in the area to find Mole Oaxaqueno, the spicy chocolate sauce, with dozens of ingredients in it. It has nuts in it so avoid if allergic to nuts.

The Enchildas de Mole Oaxaqueno con Pollo ( chicken ) was very good, of course comes with rice, beans, and salsa verde (green) and roja (red). Delicious!!! Good portions! The rice and beans were tasty.

Server although not overly friendly, was attentive.

Cons: Street parking can be tight.
Bathroom could definitely be maintained cleaner, hand dryer not working and no paper towels.

See pics.

Disgusting just like their attitudes. How do you serve spoiled food and not refund 🤔 would not recommend. I would negative if I could. BTW it's not the first time this happens 🙃 your employees need to be trained better and stop with the attitudes when approached in a calm manner.

The food is served cold, I do not recommend it for anyone. I ordered barbecue tacos and the taste was very bad.

The chips they put with sauce are very bitter,

Price on the bill was different than the menu and lied about the reason claiming taxes. But the discrepancy in price was an even amount, clearly not a tax. There was already tax added at the bottom of the check.

I visited this place and I found a cockroach shell in the nachos that I told the owner and it was not pleasant this visit he does not know how to treat customers and the other time they gave me a raw chicken.
