Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

Yes yes yes. This place is amazing. From the second you walk in the vibrant decoration to the pack full tables, you immediately know you’re in for a treat. All the servers and hostesses were super nice, explained things well, and were happy to be there. We started with some coffee drinks at the bar before our table. Dark Horchata was amazing, Cafe de ills was so refreshing. Our friends got micheladas that were large and super good. The pancakes may have been the best we’ve ever had. From the corn and crispness to the thick moist fluffy inside, and the condensed milk instead of syrup. This is MUST get. We will be back to get this again! 3 Huevos al Gusto was a big portion. Chorizo was buzzing with flavors, bacon thick and crispy. We got the added steak and it was thin but tender, and well seasoned. We can’t wait to come back!!

My only complaint would be they’re not open for dinner because it was SO nice! A bit crowded between tables. You are given a small cup of hot Mexican coffee upon being seated. Let’s say it was sugar with a bit of coffee lol but delightfully spiced. I ended up pouring mine over ice and I enjoyed that. This is not your Americanized boiler plate Mexican restaurant. It was full of ladies having brunch. I got the pork Montaditos which was like an open faced barbecue sandwich with a tostone bun. Excellent comfort food. Hubby got chicken enchiladas chock full of chicken. He cleaned his plate. I only wish I’d had room for dessert because they sounded amazing.

Truly one of the best restaurants we have been to in a long time. Staff were so sweet and generous. Food was insanely good. During our week long trip this is where we chose to eat every other day! Absolutely perfect every single time. The chai tea is delicious. Avocado toast is so divine and adding their habanero sauce on top is top tier.
