Authentic Mexican Cuisine! Diego runs the entire place and is clearly a well trained professional with a vision. Come try Diego's delicious flavors from all over Mexico.
Food was very, very good! My husband had the Mole Verde and I had the Mole Rojo. Both dishes were on point! Flavorful and savory! Wish the portions were a tad bit larger for the price. Only reason why I deducted a star is because the service has A LOT of room for improvement.
This place could easily become my top destination for authentic Mexican food in Houston but it's not quite there yet. You can see the owner/chef is working hard to make this a true foodie destination. First the good: they have the coolest name EVER! Their recipies are authentic and well executed. Service is fine, not great. It's good value for your money. Location is also very convenient. So now the areas they need to improve: A/C is not enough to keep the restaurant cool in a hot summer day so be prepared for a warm place. Ambience and decor is ok but a bit raw. And finally and must surprising, they open late and close early so you might need to make an extra effort to give it a try. This is a family owned and recently opened restaurant so I'm sure they will continue to improve the experience and I look forward to coming back soon.
This is an amazingly authentic Mexican restaurant that was absolutely delicious. The chef came out to talk to us and gave us a brief description on the food and culture of the restaurant that was great! Basically, the food is authentically Mexican with all ingredients made from scratch, the chef got his chef degree (?) in Spain but is Mexican by his roots, and the business is family-owned! Loved the place! I also highly recommend the hot chocolate! Delicious!
