Beef or chicken breast for me. Leo went in the back and cooked me up a mole chicken breast that was tender and delicious. It went great with the cactus veggies and rice.

This was our guide's favorite restaurant but I disagree. Love the dirtbag climbers vibe and…read moreextremely friendly owners/servers but our mole barely had any meat in it and the veggie mole used frozen vegetables that were still cold when they placed it in front of my daughter! They took it back and instead of making her a new plate, they shoved it in a microwave for five minutes. As the place began to fill for the evening, they asked us four to squish into a small 4 top so they could separate the two small tables to seat a couple that had just walked in. It was fine but it was awkward. 10 more minutes and we would have been done anyway. The bathroom is out back and there is a swimming pool and patio. I bet the parties there are wild once the climbing season kicks in.

But the place is also hip: we were there on a World Cup day, and there were many fans watching the game. It was festive and lively. The food is outstanding. We got the fried cauliflower, the arranchera (strip steak), the suckling pig (as tacos), and the creme brûlée flan. The steak was deliciously marbled, and cooked to perfection. It melted a bit on the tongue. The suckling pig tacos were dynamite. The meat was tender, and topped with a crispy piece of chicharron. The presentation was impeccable. The flan was also really tasty, and made for a light, sweet, and to a delicious meal.

Not awful but not worth the trip and Definitely nowhere near Michelin territory. Service was slow and inattentive. Salmon was over cooked. Asparagus was ok. Beef Chicharron was dry.

Been here several Times and tried a lot of different foods…read more I think we've honed in our order after this last visit. The chips and salsa are fabulous. Love the flavor especially for those that don't like cilantro like me. Then the guac! It's just fresh avocado but I love it. And a margarita. Haven't loved the grilled meat, always seems overcooked and tough but could just be how we ordered because of the mixed company. Flavor seems lacking also though. Tried the beset salad this last time and wouldn't recommend. Looked pretty but the beets were lacking flavor and then there was an odd sauce on top. Complemented with dry spinach so that will be a pass next time. Great service and lots of people! Nice bathrooms.

They have a great selection on the menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The bar was hopping! I had what I would have to call the ultimate tacos. Gaoneras Fresnos. Corn tortillas, queso, thinly sliced grilled ribeye, chicharron, avocado, onion, cilantro and some green sauce. There was so much on top of each tortilla that it was hard to fold! That's not a complaint. They have homemade tortillas chips and fresh salsa, both mild and spicy. I did not have room for any dessert but they looked good. Price was very reasonable for the amount and quality of food.
