Well my wife and I were a little confused about them getting 3 stars. Seems like the reviews are bipolar about things and you either hate it or love it.. such is most of our lives.
But oh well, I'm Mexican and new to the area and we are always looking for Mexican meals.
But oh well we decided to give it a try due to the bipolar nature of the reviews with the in laws. I would not say that they are strictly traditional but really trying to push the envelope in a good way. Yes I would say it is more pricey than Chipotle, but they really do try hard to cook out of the box and try to give great service. I had duck under cover and thought it was great and could not finish it so I had duck for lunch the next day.
My wife and in laws also liked their meals. So in the end though not traditional I thought it was untraditionally great.
About the other contradictory reviews I do not know what to say.... just that you need to try this place and give it a shot like we did.
