The server gave me a cup of pumpkin soup which was creamy and seasoned with warm spices, and some homemade tortilla chips which came with a red sauce and a green one, and a beef meatball which had olives in it. I came here specially because I was interested to try a high quality mole, and I found that this place has 6 different varieties. I appreciated that they have an option to order a side of mole sauce, so that I could order one mole as my main dish and another as well in order to compare. I went with the mole poblano, which seems to be the most classic option and a side of the harder to come by mole blanco. There is a variety of protein options, including chile relleno, but I went with chicken. The mole comes with a large portion of rice and beans, a few tortillas, and two large drumsticks smothered in rich, chocolate brown mole. On my first taste, I immediately noted the bitterness. The rich bitter flavor of dark chocolate is intense in this dish. As I ate, my mouth adjusted to the bitterness level and I was able to taste the symphony of chilis used in this dish. The flavor is so rich and full and complex. The various chilis and spices used combine in such a way that it's difficult to pick out any one specific ingredient, like trying to listen to one instrument in a full orchestra. The flavor is so complex and temporal, changing as you eat each bite. The mole blanco is also insane. When tasting this for the first time, I reacted to the richness initially. Despite being vegan, it coats the palette in fat immediately the way something containing heavy cream does. On my first taste I thought there was no way I would finish this, as it was sooo dense and heavy. However, the fat melts away just as fast as it came and the earthy and nutty flavors of the mole come through, followed by the mild heat of the warming, complex blend of spices in this dish at the very end of the tasting experience The food here is remarkably complex and must be expertly prepared in order to give such a temporal eating experience. I highly recommend this restaurant to any one interested in mole. Eating here felt almost academic to me. I have very little experience with authentic Mexican food and this place offered me such a fantastic lesson in what Mexican cooking looks like.

I came in late night on a Friday and there was a good amount of people at the restaurant. My friend and I both ordered quesadillas with al pastor and I was surprised at how fast the food came out! I think we waited barely 5min. I had the flour tortilla for my quesadilla. The quesadilla uses one tortilla so it's probably pretty small for the average person. My friend was still hungry after his, but the size was just right for me since I get full easily. I got my quesadilla with everything on it besides pineapple. The onions and veggies tasted fresh and there was a perfect amount of meat and cheese ratio. Will definitely be back.

Clearly management is not concerned to keep pricing aligned and make sure all menus have consistency. It is unfortunate Server couldn't communicate the same to us, instead she gave us inconsistent procing menus, wrong attitude towards customers.

We when last Saturday and the tacos were 5.50 (4.50 price was written over with the new pricing). I understand price of food has gone up and I was ok with it.

The tacos here are good but $6/tacos is ridiculous for a place with minimal service. Also when you ask for a glass of water they give you a bottle and charge you 2.00.
