    Cheeseburger with home cut fries
    Jenna B.

    Great family owned little dinner. Delicious delicious burgers. We've been waiting till the construction made it easier to access, well the wait is over!! We had cheeseburgers, one with a generous side salad and one with home cut French fries. Everything was flavorful and the prices are great. Be sure to stop in and tell everyone the construction is over!!

    Jalapeño bacon burger

    Went in there tonight when we saw they were now open for dinner. Had a great conversation with the owner of the café. My husband's burger was awesome.. and I had "corn ribs" which were also super tasty! As far as the critiques saying that it's slow.. yeah, that's what happens when food is actually cooked from scratch. It's not a fast food restaurant. If you don't have time to sit and enjoy your company, and the food that is being made for you, go somewhere else. Yes, it's an old building and definitely a dive.. but the food really is good. Go in with an open mind and you'll be just fine. My one critique, the fries are super salty. If you don't like that, make sure to ask them to go easy on the salt.. or no salt and salt them yourself.

    Shut the front door and back the truck up, because this is something to be experienced for those…read moreinterested in tasting layers and complexity. Not the lame video content where 2 seconds into a bite an actor says it is soooo amazing. This is the real deal. As far as Oaxacan, straight up nails the flavor profile - which only comes with multiple preparation steps, layers, and time. Thus the expense. The only authenticity deviation I can tell is that the spice level is much lower, which my wife appreciated. It has been so long since I've had a mole that didn't taste like Hershey coco powder cooked in an overly sweet base with a little pork fat. Or from a Sysco can. After having some great experiences in northern Mexico and southern CA, in the decades since I had given up on finding a good mole. Their Mole Negro was incredibly favorable and dances on the tongue for a solid 30 seconds. Braised beef short rib was perfectly cooked and fork tender. Mole - mwah! Can't recall ever having a charred sunchoke (as a side), but now it is on my radar because that was super tasty. Barbacoa de borrego... during a trip going through Quintana Roo, I shared a meal with an ethnic Mayan community where the meat was freshly slaughters, dry rubbed, wrapped in leaves, and slow pit cooked over embers in the ground. Amano's style is using agave, which I liked. From time to time I purchase Boise River lamb at the Meridian Main Street Farmers Market. It's way better than New Zealand lamb which always seems a little gamey/off to me. The broth provided just elevated each mouthful. To have local Boise River lamb prepared as an authentic barbacoa... Given the amount of meat you get, it's totally worth the $108 splurge. But wait, there's more. Scallop crudo - my wife said it reminded her of the fresh shrimp and fish ceviche we had in Playa del Carmen. I loved the pairing with jicama and slice of de-seeded jalapeno (not spicy). Only warning - the dry spice they sprinkle scallops with can be a bit strong for some. Beans, simply amazing. Rice, pretty good. 4 salsa's offered a real diversity of flavors to do different pairings. Provided tortillas seemed more like authentic maize that is well worked, not the fragile disks you can get in the grocery store. The tres leche lavender cake was enjoyable, but didn't blow me away. Everyone was very friendly. Our server was awesome and super helpful. Great menu of mescals, which was perfect for resetting the pallet. I guess they are going to start up a tasting room in the near future, which would be pretty interesting. To get that real taste without having to spend thousands on getting to where the authentic exists - simply awesome.

Our server, Ashley, was absolutely wonderful. Since it was our first visit, she thoroughly explained the menu and made excellent suggestions. She even showed me where Chef and owner Sal prepares the meats underground overnight and explained the extensive process behind them. Ashley then introduced me to Sal before giving me a peek inside the mezcal tasting room. I loved the agave goddess artwork in there! Sadly, I didn't get to meet his wife and business partner, Becca--but hopefully I will when we return! Ashley also took the time to show me the entrance to Cán Coctelería--Amano's speakeasy--from their outdoor dining patio. Now I have yet another reason to return! We started with drinks and cornbread. My Cadillac margarita was impressive! I also tried my hubby's Café de Olla--¡delicioso! I sampled their mezcal as well, and it was so tasty and warmed my heart in the best possible way! The cornbread was incredibly moist and buttery. They also serve a delicious sweet wheat bread that, in my opinion, is even better than chips and salsa! For my meal, I ordered the chilaquiles with eggs over easy and added birria. They were excellent! I love when the chips still have some texture and aren't completely soggy. These had the perfect sauce-to-chip ratio, along with a little spice--which I loved! My husband ordered the birria tacos and absolutely devoured them. The refreshing towel offered after our meal was another thoughtful touch and the perfect way to end the experience. Overall, I truly loved Amano! The food was delicious, the service was memorable, and the entire experience felt special. I'm already looking forward to returning, experiencing Cán Coctelería, and bringing our friends and relatives whenever they come to visit!

When we arrived around 1:30 p.m., a young gentleman greeted us and let us know they close at 2:00 p.m. before seating us. Unfortunately, they had already sold out of the cinnamon rolls. There appear to be two dining rooms, so I'm not sure if only our side was closing or if the entire restaurant closes then. The food was good overall, but it wasn't seasoned much at all. I found their house seasoning blend on the table just as I was finishing my meal. I wish I'd noticed it sooner because I think it would have made a big difference. Our server was friendly and attentive, and our food came out quickly. The restaurant has a cozy, family-owned feel with lots of charming decorations, heartwarming quotes, and family photos throughout the dining room. One of my favorites was the sign that read, "I Love You Like Biscuits and Gravy." It was such a cute touch that perfectly fit the warm, cozy atmosphere. If I'm in the area again, I'll call ahead to see if they have cinnamon rolls before making the trip.

You could tell that…read moreeveryone knew we weren't local by some of the glares from patrons we received, but were warmly welcomed by the staff. We were quickly greeted and offered drinks, though my unhealthy obsession with Diet Pepsi could not be fulfilled here...they don't carry it (only Pepsi zero). It seems that most soft drinks are bottled only, which is fine but unexpected. We ordered waters, which were quite delicious and nicely iced. I ordered the huevos con chorizo, that comes with "Mexican " potatoes and refried beans. I received my meal pretty quickly. The downside? It took another 4 minutes before my husband's meal arrived. My eggs were perfectly cooked and the beans seemed very homemade. They had an enticing texture and taste. The potatoes were a great addition, with a nice pan roasted flavor. The meal comes with 3 corn or flour tortillas. Everything was piping hot. I loved every bite of my meal. Once my husband received his meal, he loved the flavor of his burrito as well, especially the rice, beans and nicely toasted tortilla. The menu has all prices blacked out so it's hard to gauge cost for a meal. For the quality of food, I found our meals priced accordingly...though I would have loved better soda choices. Regardless, the food was made well, though table meal service could have been timed better.

But the waitress didn't ask what side I wanted and just gave me fries. I could have said something, but was hungry and didn't want to wait for it to be fixed. Hubby loved the gravy, but thought the actual chicken fried steak was just ok. The breading was meh and the meat was more of a hamburger texture rather than cube steak. His hashbrowns were also very under cooked and the oil tasted old. Despite those issues, we'd still go back and talked about what we'd try next. Once we placed our order the waitstaff became much more attentive and was very friendly.
