    First visit to this new restaurant and we left full and satisfied! I got Molcajete seafood (sea scallops, tilapia, shrimp, nopalito, full size green onions, and a poblano) with huge portions and great flavor; the tilapia was thin and crispy ❤️ and the nopalito the best I've ever had! The homemade chips and salsa are delicious, and you can add tasty homemade hot sauce to spice it up. Serves Coke products and waiting for their liquor license. 👍🏻👍🏻

    My family and I have been wanting to go check out this new place since it opened, we love Mexican restaurants! El Jefe didn't quite have their liquor license yet, so we didn't get a chance to try the cocktails. The Tequila Mule did catch my eye, and I'm excited about going back to try that drink out.
    I had the Chile Colorado, I requested it spicy, and they delivered! My wife had the shrimp tacos, which she enjoyed, my son got the shrimp diavolo, and my daughter got ceviche, which was very fresh and I couldn't help by sneak a chip full! Overall this was a great experience, and we will be back!

    The sopes are 10/10, Aguachile is also a solid 10/10, and the pastor tacos were also really good. The aguas frescas were indeed very frescas!

    Came here for soft opening, good vibes. Had a table of 6 so food took a while to come out. Had to find someone to get more salsa. Two pages were dedicated to margaritas but they didn't have their liquor license yet so unable to comment on that aspect.

    The food was amazing super tasty. I got the sopes and they were delicious, portio size was pretty big. The service was excellent. Our waiter kept asking if we need it anything and other members would too so service 20/10. The place is beautiful inside, the decorations are beautiful and the mural looks amazing.
    Para los que hablan español esta bien chingon.
