This place was very delicious! Their food is so tasteful and good, you won’t be disappointed. Our waitress Maricela gave us a such an amazing service, she had a great vibe and was very attentive on making sure we were good. We will definitely be going back to try other plates of food and hoping to see Maricela as our waitress.

The last I order from this place. We ordered the molcajete cielo mar y tierra. After we finished eating I noticed that in the sauce there was a pen cap. It looks like it was blended up in the sauce. They tried offering me another plate of food at no charge but not interested.
