The food was wonderful! It was a busy night and the service was naturally a bit slow, but that’s fine and expected! Our waitress was wonderful, the owner came out to help bc they were so busy, which gave us a minute to chat with him. I cannot recommend this place more. Crispy tuna rice, bahn Mi tacos, and the queso fundito were all wonderful, as were the drinks. I will be back.

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.

Had an incredible group dinner here - the staff was so friendly and the owner was incredibly kind and accommodating. I highly recommend any of the rolls and the Oaxaca Sol (one the of the most fun drinks I’ve had). Will absolutely be coming back and am excited to try the owners other place called Izas next door.
