Had a fantastic meal out on the patio!Grilled octopus was nicely prepared and chips and salsa were fresh. Shared the enchiladas suizas and taco special (crab) and wanted to lick the plates! Highly recommend having dinner here. Service was perfect!

This is the type of place you bring people, knowing they will be impressed, but you can downplay it as "just" a local neighborhood spot. Everything is impeccable. The margaritas were great. We tried the short rib enchiladas and wisdom chicken- both of which we went back for 2 days later. My friend ordered the mushroom tacos which hadn't appealed to me, but they were delicious! They have a rich, umami flavor and I highly recommend! The service is also fantastic-everyone is super friendly and the atmosphere is fun and familiar. Trust me, you'll love it.

We had dinner here and liked it so much we went back for brunch two days later! The menu is not extensive, but selective, with many dishes having an Oaxacan flavor. The Desayuno Relleno was fantastic! A perfectly piquant poblano stuffed with eggs, corn, choriizo, Oaxacan cheese, and winter squash. The dinner dishes we had were wonderful -- The scallops were served with an almond mole (sorry, can't find an accented e here) that was just the right degree of spiciness! We will be frequent diners here.
