Definitely very different for most Mexican restaurants, huge emphasis on all the mole dishes. Absolutely loved mole flight, it was so cool to be able to try so many different ones so I could get a feel for what was my taste. Wonderful portion sizes, definitely did not leave hungry. There’s also a huge seafood selection and it is very fresh. The shrimp quesadilla is definitely a favorite. And seasonally they do add certain things to the menu which is really exciting. Also my first time trying crickets, though not my favorite they were extremely well seasoned and I could see how people would enjoy them.

We got the chile relleno with ancestral mole, really good mole! The molcajete was also delicious, its a sharable plate. The agua fresca de piña y nopal was also very good.
