“ We hunkered down in the rain with delicious mezcal drinks—Fernando, our sever had excellent suggestions and took expert care of us. Great place for people watching—and I bought some beautiful things from local artists as I relaxed here. Extra super highlight -I got to sing with the mariachi!!! ”
“ We had a fantastic early dinner. The wait staff was friendly and attentive we started with a cantarito, a sangria., and the mango agua del día. All of drinks were well balanced and delightful. For appetizers we chose guacamole, queso fundido with chorizo, and a bowl of sopa de tortilla. It just doesn’t get any better. They were delicious. For the main course we tried the seasonal chiles en nogada, the enchiladas suizas, the enfrijoladas, and the carne asada. All of the dishes were well prepared and beautifully presented. It’s hard to imagine the work that went into developing the complex flavors and textures that we enjoyed. We’ll be back!! ”
