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

We loved this place! The food was wonderful and so fresh! We got the smoked salmon dip as an appetizer and we specifically can to try the blueberry margarita. I highly recommend getting the blueberry margarita. We had the Migas as an entree and the Birria burrito, and the servings are massive!

This place is so fun and retro, has a great vibe and an amazing playlist to relax to and enjoy your food, which is outstanding, I got 3 of their tacos and each one had a one of a kind kick to taste, also the drinks were well mixed and the ratio on point! 10 out of 10 would recommend !

We've had up and down experiences with the Fold, and they haven't had to do with the food, which is generally good. They have more to do with the demeanor of some of the greeting staff and wait staff, which can be less than welcoming. The whole place has a cool, young, with-it vibe, a kind of I'm so cool that I can't be bothered with pretending to be friendly and polite vibe. Maybe as an older person, I expect a sort of non-brusque, authentic and human, approach from people with whom I interact in a public setting. And maybe increasingly younger folks are not socialized to see things this way. What's good about the Fold, the sometimes iffy reception and lack of politess in employees set to the side, is the food. The salsa roja is top-notch, loaded with cilantro and blessedly free of the sweeteners with which some Tex-Mex places not far from the Fold love to load their salsa. We had brunch today, and I found my plate of chilaquiles not bad but also not great. There are better chilaquiles to be found locally than these, which are on the dry side. The huevos rancheros my spouse enjoyed were, however, first-rate. We both thought so. It was a warmish but not hot April day, a breezy one, and sitting outside on the patio was very pleasant. This is another plus of the Fold, the ample outdoor seating at tables not crammed too close together.
