The food was delicious. We had Mixiote de pollo (Chicken leg and thigh, potatoes, nopales, ancho chile salsa, $21), Quesadillas (Hen-of-the-woods mushrooms, epazote, habanero salsa, $15), and for desert, Oaxacan chocolate budin ($10). The service was wonderful. The server gave us ample time to place our order while we were catching up with each other.

The food is fantastic and the servers seem exceedingly hard-working. However, the place is just so busy, cramped, and noisy, it's difficult to truly enjoy the experience. If you need something from a server, it might be 20 minutes before you can get their attention.

Our second dinner at to Comal, and still very positive, though the food was variable in quality. Butternut squash soup was amazingly good, very flavorful. The chiles rellenos were a little bland but still good. The Oaxacan chocolate budin was not a budin de pan, I don't think, but rather a thick, buttery chocolate that was OK. And of course it's hard to stop eating the chips and sauces. We'll be back.
