Ordered food to go. I'm honestly not sure how this place doesn't have a line going down the block. The cochinita pibil tacos were insanely good, and my husband's milanese torta was just like the ones he fell in love with in Mexico City. Best Mexican food I've had in the neighborhood so far and will definitely become my go-to.

Incredible food. Huge vegan variety!
The freshness, quality and flavor made us look over the long wait for the food. We had the Gorditas with huitlacoche, stuffed chicken, rice and beans and chips and guacamole - all were absolutely delicious. Highly recommended.

Dietary restrictions: Very vegan friendly

Hidden gem of a spot- low key is the spot for high quality authentic Mexican food at good price- flavorful - decent portions & again, solid quality.
I walked in on a whim just looking to check it out and was surprised by how insanely good the food was.

Overall honest breakdown;
Food was fantastic. Seats are very uncomfortable. Atmosphere is meh. Service was great.
