The food, service, vibes were all immaculate! We got a dinner reservation and were seated promptly. The inside is a cozy and vibey set up. The carne asada fries were to DIE FOR! Soo so soo good (and pictured below). We also got the flautas and guac for the table. Those were good but not as spectacular as the carne asada fries! My dinnermates got margaritas (one got watermelon and another regular) and both liked the margs. They were asthetic drinks but sadly not pictured

Quiet place for a Tuesday dinner with delicious drink and food options. As a Sober, it's so nice to get mocktails, and I highly recommend the Spicy Watermelon Lime. The Cevice Verde and Carne Asada Fries were dope.

I'm not sure if this is authentic Mexican or California Mexican, but it's a good change from all the predictable tex-mex options around town. Don't miss happy hour for deals on not only drinks, but food too!

Stellar weekend spot for a late-night snack, with rich and unique flavor combos to spice up any date night or friends' outing! 100% recommend the Steak Frites dish - best tasting appetizer I've had so far this year, without a doubt! Phenomenal service & atmosphere to go along the unique menu options.

This food was completely delicious. Service was quick and friendly. The Carne Asada fries were absolutely delicious.

Wow wow wow, I was actually super impressed by this place! Quality food for a really reasonable price. We came in without reservation, but womanly hurt to call just in case with a bigger group. Towards the evening it does get very dark inside with the lighting but still a very wonderful experience to take on if you're swinging by. Bravo! Love the staff, and love the place and food. Would definitely come back again.

The real highlight was the friendly service and an accommodating manager who sets a customer-centric service tone from the top. We had an issue with the hostess and our reservation but he stepped in to resolve the matter creatively. The patio is fun, with a live DJ (though too loud for any conversation), and the food was enjoyable. It was the vibration atmosphere that made this a decent Friday night outing. No one thing stood out per se - they had 2 types of vegetarian tacos on the menu. Skip the guacamole - it's too tiny a serving for the price - but the corn is spiced quite well.

Had a latte on a sweet spring midday and I would honestly say I enjoyed it and enjoyed the Mello tropical ambient with its various plants and view of a corner part of the city. Enjoyed the various people walking/jogging by as the sun sat right perfect enough to keep the warmth and fresh part of the day inside the Cafe.Would recommend it, lovely staff and the food menu looked great. Provecho!
Barely any vegetarian options available. The 1 entree item available is not good at taste. There is no protein they add to the vegetarian options. The rice and beans have chicken stock in them as well which cannot be eaten if you're a vegetarian.

This place lost one of my stars because of the service. The food was great!! Carne asada tacos, quac, churro donuts, all 10/10 margarita was okkkk. Also the price for the amount of food you get is very reasonable My vegetarian friend got the cactus taco and she said she would get it again! The service- we got sat at 7:15 and nobody came to greet us until 7:40 AFTER I got up to ask who our waiter was. I wish that was an exaggeration. After we finally got our waiter, he was fine but after the first 30 min of waiting around for someone to come to our table we were all a little annoyed.

Great atmosphere - feels very upscale Mexican. Very trendy, and great location. You're just far enough from East that you don't have rowdy drunkards around you but close enough to party after dinner. The menu is pretty limited which is actually kind of nice. I ordered the mojito and the carajillo to begin - both were very sweet but delicious if you like sweet drinks. We got guac to share which was good but nothing special. I got two shrimp tacos which were so delicious. They put a piece of grilled mozzarella on it, which makes the whole taco warm and salty (in a good way). I had no cell service in the restaurant, but that happens a lot on east. Servers were all very nice and accommodating for our party of 11.
