The food here is NOT your typical Mexican food, it is fresh, delicious and unique. I enjoyed their mole enchiladas, which were spectacular! Mr. Wonderful had the carnitas, rice and beans. I tried his refried beans - the consistency and flavor are incomparable! I tried the jalapeño, mango margarita and Mr.Wonderful had the Tita’s margarita. I generally do not drink tequila, but found my cocktail to be unique and delicious. The service is exceptional. Not only are the staff friendly and knowledgeable - they are fluid (teamwork) which creates a flawless dining experience. I believe we met almost everyone working here this evening. I cannot wait to return!"

Perfect amount of spicy in salsa and sauces, not nuclear but some quality heat. Looking forward to returning and trying more menu items!"
