Description
Behind the classy casual atmosphere, the kitchen focuses on robust seasoning with a deft hand on spice levels. Menu highlights include the enchiladas tinga, carnitas burritos, and tostones with chicken tinga. While prices run slightly higher than average for Mexican fare, generous portion sizes and attentive service make it worth the spend. The house-made chorizo—featured in options like the chorizo and fried egg burrito bowl—is a particular favorite. Note that salsa options are limited and micheladas are just okay, but the plates arrive beautifully presented.
