Description

The homey decor and friendly staff keep the dining room feeling grounded. Alongside familiar starters like fresh guacamole and fried corn esquites, the kitchen serves a tlayuda—a crispy, pizza-style tortilla. Keep in mind that flavors here skew mild: the green pozole leans into star anise rather than a sharp chili kick, and the house salsa lacks heat. Because prices run high for the portion sizes, especially the sides of rice and beans, it functions best as a relaxed, easygoing option for group dinners rather than a budget-friendly neighborhood joint.
