The brunch food here was amazing! But the wait was not. Our group of five waited 40 minutes to be seated despite arriving only 15 minutes after opening at 11am, so definitely recommend reservations. Additionally, food took another 50 minutes to come out, probably because there was another large party ahead of us. For a leisurely brunch that's fine, but if you're in a hurry this definitely isn't the place for you. As for the food, every dish looked and tasted excellent. Presentation, flavors, and texture were all spot on with the chilaquiles divorciados that I ordered, with runny eggs and just a little crunch in the chips. House made tortillas were colorful and delicious. Coffee service was generous as we waited. Cochinta pibil, Chile relleno and regular chilaquiles my friends ordered also looked amazing and I'd definitely want to come back here sometime and try more dishes. But next time, I'll make reservations.
Food is average, overpriced, portions are small; the menu is limited. If you ask for a plate they gave me something else; they want to serve what they want to give you not what you want. It is really loud and not kid friendly.
Amazing food. All of the salsas taste great. There’s even something special about their tortillas/tostadas. Portions are nice. I had the duck which is a small size, but fills you up and hits the spot. Drinks are refreshing and pretty strong. Service was very pleasant. I took family that doesn’t speak English and they felt respected.
