In Short – Red and green hues blend seamlessly with one mosaic wall. An open stainless steel kitchen features a bar where regulars watch the preparation of homemade corn tortillas. Others sip margaritas on the outdoor patio and dine on sopes--corn cakes with chorizo and queso fresco--or peel-and-eat tamarind shrimp. Entrees feature traditional dishes such as Oaxacan-inspired cochinito pibil, marinated pork with crisp, pickled red onions and chicken mole blanketed in a sauce with subtle chili nuances.

Warm Tortillas remind me of Abuela
by InternationalMystique
I love this restaurant! The fresh made warm tortillas are alway tasty. The staff is very accomodati8ng and friendly. Their twist to familiar recipes are so wonderful, I am very happy to see a restaurant serving Latino foods that are not smothered in cheddar cheese!
- Cons: small place and often crowded... that's not a bad thing

Food is Good...but
by DEAT
Good Food and Menu, but average service and it was LOUD the two times we've been there. We would go more often if it was in a better location.
- Pros: Good Food
- Cons: Seating

Sub par service, good food
by LivininSE
Tried a neighborhood recommendation last week and while it has unique fresh food you can't help but be soured by a host with no interest in really seeing where you order is as those next to you are seated after you, order an appetizer and drink (like us) and are finished with their meal before ours is served. no apology, no its coming right up just a "they ordered an appetizer and thats why theirs is out first" We ordered appetizers too and that is no excuse. Thats the last we saw of our host. Guess I scared him. Sorry if I did.
- Pros: Fresh fish
- Cons: disinterested offended host
