Was recommended by a friend and boy were they right. So many unique options even though the menu is on the small side. That’s a good thing here. They have a few things they are doing extremely well. Enough variety to find something you’ll love though. First they brought out a free potato taco with their hot sauces so you could try them all while you wait for your food. We got a variety of tacos and all were very unique and special. We got the guacamole to start and the fried tortillas and chicharrones they came with were delicate and divine.

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.

Like other reviewers mentioned, you get a free taco de canasta made of potato so that you can try their salsas. I loved this interactive approach compared to other places that just bring chips and salsa! When we arrived we were immediately welcomed and liked the environment. Our food was overall 10/10. We tried the guacamole with chicharrón and tostadas and it was delicious! We got there early enough that we were the first ones there, but slowly the place filled up, and the owner made sure to greet every single person and often checked up on each table to make sure everything was as up to par. We tried different tacos, flautas, cantaritos, and the tres leches cake and nothing disappointed! The taste is truly authentic, and as someone from Mexico City, I appreciated the pineapple on the tacos al pastor! The music was great too! Will definitely return!!
