We had cafe de olla and some dishes that made for an amazing brunch. We ordered a plate of Arrachera with tortillas and Bistec Encebollado (steak with onions) with beans. On the same plate we had chicharrones en salsa, a breakfast staple in this city. To balance the heavier dishes we had a Jugo Verde drink made from fresh pineapple and parsley. The staff were so friendly, we felt at home with the kind approach and nice ambiance. The decor is traditional and tasteful, we had such a fun experience. We dream of this breakfast and want to return with our sons soon. Try some amazing food here next time you're in Guadalajara, Jalisico Mexico!

Since I was one, I was seated immediately in a table for four. I ordered cheese quesadillas and a limeade. Wait staff are plentiful and walk back and forth between tables. The place gets packed. The quesadillas come with beans but they're cooked with lard. At no extra cost, the waiter was able to substitute the beans with steamed veggies. The food is delicious.

The aguas frescas are okay, not made from scratch. We ordered the orden de birria to share. It's about right for two people, but if you like more meat, it might not be enough. To make it work for us, we ordered two quesadillas and a consome (birria soup). Note that the order does come with freshly made tortillas.

La birria llegó hirviendo, burbujeando como si me estuviera coqueteando. El olor... santo Dios. Ese aroma me abrazó tan rico que casi me hace cerrar los ojos en plena mesa. Cuando metí la tortilla en el consomé, la cosa se puso peligrosa. Esa mezcla espesita, caliente, resbalando... mejor ni digo lo que pensé, porque no es apto para horario familiar. La carne, suave al grado de que se deshacía con solo mirarla. Yo también me estaba deshaciendo, pero por otras razones. Cada mordida me hacía sentir como si alguien me estuviera diciendo al oído "ándale, uno más". Y yo obedecía sin poner resistencia. El consomé... uff. Esa cosa estaba tan profunda y tan sabrosa que sentí que estaba metiéndome en problemas. Y lo peor es que me encantó. El personal muy atento, preguntándome si quería más, y yo tratando de no contestar "sí, pero de todo". Uno tiene que mantener la compostura... aunque sea poquito. Salí de ahí lleno, sudadito y con la conciencia dudosa. Conclusión: No sé qué brujería hacen en este lugar, pero esa birria despierta cosas. Y todas buenas.

The service wasn't great--slow and inattentive--and the food really missed the mark. It felt like every dish swung to one extreme or the other. The potato appetizer was way too spicy and overly seasoned to the point where it overpowered everything else. The prime rib was a major letdown: overcooked and somehow completely lacking seasoning, which is unforgivable for a dish like that. The mole with the short rib had good flavor, but once again the meat was overcooked, making it tough and disappointing. All in all, the experience was less than meh. With inconsistent food, poor service, and only decent drinks to show for it, this isn't a spot I'd return to or recommend.

Just to preface I really think this place is more of a 4-star joint but they just tried so hard. But onto the goodies. Made a reservation to come in, and when we arrived my lady went up to the hostess to be let in. They told her the kitchen was closed. I was busy paying the Taxi, but when I walked up in a suit and told them I was 5 minutes early for my reservation they changed their tune. All of a sudden this place was open and the welcome mats were placed at our feet. The service felt rushed, so I recommended coming in closer to dinner time. When you can enjoy a less hurried experience. We started with calamari a salad and pork tacos. I went for the ribeye and didn't look back. My The steak was a bit overcooked as the searing went a little deep, but overall it was still juicy and pretty good. They brought out a little hat and some complimentary dessert for my birthday which was nice and even sang las mañanitas.
