Right away our server guided us to our seats and gave us the menus. The decor is as if you are eating outside in Mexico City, very urban and cool. Colorful al around, it kinda gives you energy when you are inside. The couple of servers came around checking on us often. We ordered some tacos then an order of onions, then tortas cemitas, some cheladas and next thing you know I ate much more than I usually do . It is dangerous because the food was so good and the service was fast so like I said, I ate more than I usually do. If you stop by Puebla, make this a stop. Of course you have to be a meat lover or at least be able to eat it. I do not eat much meat and I was worried I would get sick from it but I did not, so definitely would stop by again. The micheladas were also good, and they have plenty of hot sauces to choose from, different flavors and levels of spicy. Stayed here for some time since it was cool to look at the details of the decoration.

After a long day, my husband and I came here during the eve of Day of the Dead as our last place to…read moreeat before leaving Puebla. We weren't in the mood to eat a lot, and everywhere we looked like either the place was too crowded or too busy, and this wasn't an exception, but it would have something small to eat, which was "Tacos al Pastor." These tacos were delightful, and although this place had a Mexican bar and grill vibe, a bit more coastal for my liking, I enjoyed it here tremendously, and even was in the mood for a beer with my food. I only took a picture of the menu, but the tacos al pastor didn't look any different than at other places. We also ordered a queso fondu which was really good. At other tables nearby we noticed some people ordering "fried cheese" which looked pretty tasty, and would try it out next time.

I'm usually sceptical of recommendations in guide books as they never seem to be what the writers…read moresuggest they are. We arrived in Puebla just after lunch and were very hungry so decided to put our faith in our Moon guidebook and try this taqueria. Walking in right past the spit with the marinated meat roasting on it made me so hungry. I had two tacos arabe, one torta and a chorizo con queso. They were all pretty tasty. They were on par with the best tacos I had in Mexico City. I would have gone back but didn't have much time in Puebla and needed to try the other regional dishes. The staff just handed us a paper form to mark what we wanted and they promptly delivered it, which was great since my Spanish is still a work in progress.

There is an English menu available online but not in the restaurant. Here's where I get confused. The service is excellent, full white tablecloth treatment, old-school European style. No detail is missed. Then we get to the food. It's really pretty good, all told. Here's where the attention to details goes sideways. The bread rolls felt as if they had been sitting since yesterday. The beans, although delicious, had sat around on the plate long enough to be room temperature and develop a crust. The totopos stuck in the beans were in the beans long enough to get soggy. The rice served alongside the moles was barely above room temperature and a bit dried out. All the food, in general, needed to arrive from the kitchen much warmer. Essentially, anything that could be made ahead of time was, and then left sitting out. It doesn't fit and I don't get it.

I thought nothing of it because the tacos are pretty much great anywhere and everywhere in Mexico, but I was immediately impressed. The tacos here are great! I especially like the al pastor ones, but what really makes them extra tasty are their salsas! They have four, but their green avocado one will take your tacos to the next level! What really makes me love this place and is the big reason for the 5 stars are their licuados! They.Are.Amazing! Especially their licuado de mamey!! Mamey is this incredible fruit that is just perfect for a smoothie because it's so creamy.

They're a distant cousin of shawarma and you should get them on the house made pan arabe (a cousin of pita). The meat is thinly sliced and mixed with thin griddled onions. Catch the right bite with charred meat edges and slightly crunchy browned onions and you've reached taco nirvana. You can order meat by the weight which comes with pan arabe or tortillas, limes and salsa and DIY the tacos. If you're ordering more than three, it makes sense. There is zero atmosphere (who cares?) and the service is average but fast. Look, with food this good, what else do you need?
