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

They have the best salsa ever!! So good. Clean and friendly staff. My husband and I shared the Thursday special of fajitas so it was very cost efficient. We would definitely go back again!

There are a lot of Mexican Restaurant options in this area and this is one you need to have on your list to visit. The staff is amazing; they work as a team to service the tables so nothing is missed. The food is excellent and they had something new to me that I’d never tried before that you should consider giving a try. It is a Sopes which is a Mexican street food. The base was a thick homemade corn shell to make a shallow cup (like a tostada but thicker), and then has a variety of toppings you can add to it. They also have two very good hot salsas that you can request; green is quite hot. On the weekends, they have a homemade tortilla station as well. This is not a deterrent for us but in case you are wanting a Margarita or other cocktail, this restaurant does not serve alcohol.

Got to say this probably one of my favorite Mexicans restaurants ever, have been here many time within the past 6 years and foods here never failed on me! As it suggested by my Mexican friends the tacos here is authentic and amazing flavor, personally I love the Ai pastor the most! But what really surprised me is the tilapia they fried in whole with the flavor of lemon pepper! Had this dish for my last meal, and I am surely impressed by this unique taste especially when you tried it with fresh corn tortillas, the fish skin was crunch and the meat was fried super tender. And I have to say the people here in Mazatlan are also amazing as food they serve! I felt the passion and kindness every time I step into this place! Definitely gonna miss this place, both authentic food and amazing people! Highly suggested!
