They were fresh, crunchy, with ample green tomatillo salsa that was flavorful, making for a very authentic bite. The beans were very good and complemented the chilaquiles perfectly. Authentic Mexican flavors showcased well. Service: The waitress was friendly, attentive, and joyfully answered my questions about the menu. I also asked about the traditional colorful head piece located behind glass next to the register and learned that it is a Chinelo, a traditional iconic carnival character from Morelos, Mexico. It is clear, the restaurant owners are proud of their heritage and are sharing it with everyone. Ambiance: The small but cozy restaurant features an incredibly vibrant, maximalist indoor garden vibe that immediately makes you feel like you are dining inside an enchanted greenhouse. Dense artificial greenery blankets the walls and ceiling. The cozy, casual neighborhood layout is packed with personality, featuring playful multicolored floral tablecloths, festive flags, and unique lived-in accents. It's an energetic setting for a lively meal.

This restaurant is in such an obscure location, I can't believe I was going to a Burrito Track across the street for so many years not knowing this place existed. Friendly staff and prompt service. The unfortunate negative is it's location and I'm referring to parking. There must be 8 business crammed into this lot. With a bar to the right and a laudermat on its left finding a parking spot is like winning the lotto. Now layer in one driveway and you have to make a 3 point turn just to navigate to leave. The short answer is I will absolutely go back to this place as long as there is a parking space to be had.

We came here because my cousin DJSP was the featured DJ this Sunday, so I did my Yelp research and to be honest, I didn't know what to expect because the most recent reviews were a couple of months old, no recent food photos and menu photos were outdated. However we were going either way because it was also our featured DJ's birthday. We made reservations but that was difficult too as we called for several days until someone actually answered the phone. I was a little surprised because the food we ordered were all pretty tasty, decent portions, and reasonably priced. The service was ok. Orders took a little time to arrive, but they made sure we had chips and salsa and with a full crowd and a limited number of wait staff, they made sure we were still being attended too. It is very loud here with a full restaurant of diners, the live DJ and football games going with loud cheering fans, so if you have sensitive hearing, bring some ear plugs.

The refried beans and rice tasted good and that is one of my requirements for authentic Mexican cuisine. We lucked out because Golden Road Brewing was there promoting their Mango Cart wheat ale. It was delicious. There is a large cantina in the back with many big screens TVs. The front of the restaurant was quieter but also very nice. The service was helpful and courteous and we enjoyed our evening there. I can't wait to go again and try something else on the menu.

I'm basing my review off the flautas I ordered. Since I can remember, whenever I order flautas from…read moreMexican restaurant, they're always topped with a MOUNTAIN of lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, tons of cheese, guac and salsa. Well I received the flautas (which were very tasty) but they were BALD. There was about one tablespoon worth of guacamole on the side. And a tiny little pinch of lettuce. I immediately asked the waitress if it was missing the toppings, and she said "yes it's missing sour cream." She left and came back and said there was no more sour cream. A Mexican restaurant without sour cream? Oh! really wish I would've known that before ordering because, like I said, I love my flautas drenched in toppings. I would've ordered something else had I known there was no sour cream. I requested some extra guacamole to make up for the lack of sour cream. With guacamole and the salsa that comes with chips, it still tasted pretty good but my heart was wishing I had sour cream and tons of cheese. It was definitely a tasty meal but was a HUGE miss on the lack of toppings, which is what I crave when I order flautas. I've never seen flautas look so sad and lonely. The rice and beans were okay. Not too bad not too good. Just ok. It's a shame the restaurant is super beautiful but the food doesn't really seem authentic.

Truly so disappointed !!!…read more First of all the server was super rude - trying to talk in Spanish like we didn't know what she was saying and got surprised when we answered in Spanish ! Second the menudo was super cold - I asked for pata and was charged for a bone and a bit of nervio (you can tell it was literally just bone ) like who would pay for nothing ? And why would you make someone pay for something Que se Mira Que no tenias !!! The chilaquiles - I was not given sour cream - la salsa estaba bien espesa !!! And then we asked for sour cream and they looked so surprised and still asked if we wanted some !!! The first server had such an attitude problem like she didn't want to be there ! Second server super helpful . I asked for the owner and apparently there's a new owner Porke I've never seen this owner before . I knew it was a kitchen staff member .

Anyway, it wasn't busy at all on a weekend evening, so it felt a bit eerie inside. The chicken taquitos were pretty good, and the potato soyrizo came wrapped in white tortillas. The chicken was in red and black (purple?), and it is one of the better taquitos I have had. The plate also came with cheese and some salad. I believe it was arugula with red onions. There were two sauces, I think, but can't recall what they were. Usually, I'm not much of a sauce person, but it was fun to dip the taquitos. The asada tacos were filled and meaty, but some of it was full of fat and/or connective tissues. So, I had to spit those bits and pieces out several times during the meal. Other than that, the guacamolé was what made it so great. You could definitely separate the filling to make 4 individual tacos.
