Description
The kitchen prepares a wide-ranging menu that includes salmon almendrado, bistec tortas, and al pastor tacos, alongside vegetarian enchiladas that earn consistent praise. While the outdoor patio offers room to stretch, the indoor area is tight and centered around bar seating. Club music plays inside, though not so loud that it drowns out conversation, and the bartenders keep the service friendly.
