    Rodrigo and Angel, our servers, were very attentive and made the experience great! Food was presented well and tasted so yummy. Would definitely go back again and try all the desserts. My mom is celiac and they accommodated her gluten free needs as well. Thank you for the great experience!

    We had a reservation for 1pm but got in a little early and were seated immediately as per our choice. Alexander was our server, and he was super polite and helpful in placing our drinks and food, which turned out great. I ordered the TLAYUDAS, oyster mushrooms with chipotle as md my husband the red pipian mole sauce with pork ribs, and we finished our food to the last bite. The guacamole with the grasshoppers was great too. For drinks we ordered the siinik and limited mezcal, again awesome. Overall our experience was amazing and would highly recommend a meal here

    The staff was very attentive and polite. Tiradito de Tuna, recommended. My husband and I, did not have the best experience with our meat orders. They did their best to fix it. Taking the plates back. My return to my satisfaction! Mariachi’s always a highlight 🎶👏🏽 Our server, Diego and team professional. Yes, I will recommend this place. It’s in vivid shopping center 😉
