  • Came here with my authentic Mexican friend in tote to see how this place fares to a Mexico native....I was pleased to have him confirm it was in fact pretty dang authentic. He did note a few gringo-fied elements but as I pointed out, and we both agreed, it's hard not to incorporate a bit of local flavour into one's cooking style regardless of where they're from. The service was fabulous and friendly and thanks to my friend speaking Spanish the whole time really helped maintain that authentic feel to the place. We started with two types of fondu the fundida and the choriqueso both were delicious and super filling! You must ask for hot sauce on the side because they are homemade and soooooo gooooooood (probably my favorite part of the whole meal!). Don't be afraid to ask for super super spicy either because I'm not a huge fan of things that are too spicy (but I do appreciate a good kick) and even their spiciest sauce asked for by my friend was not enough to scare me away. The main dishes...well to be honest we both found the meats a bit on the dry side. But they were quality and delish none-the-less. I tried mole pablano for the first time...it will likely be the last time for me too because I just don't dig cocoa chicken lol but it was made well and my friend confirmed its authenticity so if you're a fan of mole go ahead and try it! My friend tried the barbacoa despite it being Monday (traditionally barbacoa is ONLY served on the weekends as a special dish in Mexico) because he wanted to see how it compared to his gramma's...well apparently it was too dry and too lean but otherwise cooked nicely and went lovely with the corn tortillas and cactus salad. We of course had deserts to finish with and I had a café latte. The flan my friend ordered had no sauce around it and was a bit dry. The treis leche I ordered was fairly good and quite moist. However unfortunately they put this weird fake-cherry-cough-syrup-tasting drizzle underneath both deserts as decoration and it damn near ruined them both (really blech!! Ask for it without the red syrup if u can, trust me). They also put cinnamon on my latté which is a real piss off for me but i was able to spoon off all the foam that had cinnamon so problem solved and otherwise a really good latté. For the 2 entrées, 2 main dishes, 2 deserts, a glass of wine, a glass of coke, a glass of milk and the latté the bill came to ~93$ so a bit on the pricey side...as my friend said "not a place I'd bring a first date to" lol. But I will definitely come back to try their other dishes.
