Great food and waited for server to ask us how everything was but never happened so decided to leave instead of ordering more food and drinks.

The quintessential neighborhood good eat, hidden among a sea of restaurants tailoring to tourists and corporate folks.We felt like we were back in East Village or Brooklyn. Such humble exterior yet cozy and chic interior.The taco and torta were delicious. The fried chicken was juicy. The sopa was small ($16!) but tasty.Definitely will be back for the food and vibe.

We went in as a party of 8. Two people came up to us to let us know they were taking care of us which we thought great! We ordered our drinks one of us got the pepino Diablo but we told them no jalapeños still ended with jalapeño. Don’t even get me started on how we sat there for like 20-40 minutes extra to order because all they didn’t come back to get our food order. The guy actually left the restaurant after giving us our drinks. Took about an hour to get our food. My niece that’s a toddler wanted the elote callejero and we said no tajin guess what we still got it with tajin and then they didn’t even get us a new one they just scraped it off the top. The lady kept going back and forth asking if one of the dishes wanted pico de gallo. Was told they put pico de gallo so we had to wait for that plate to come out. We ordered a tea and then she couldn’t make it because they don’t have a pot but still was charged for it. ALSO ONLY ONE COOK! Worst experience of my life. When it came to pay the waitress couldn’t do simple math so she had to get her “manager”. Had to use the bathroom right afterwards and to be frank my stomach still hurts.

I got the pescado tacos. You get two street style corn tortillas, the fish was fried perfectly. It came with slaw and some sort of green sauce that was very good. I also got the street corn, which is a whole cob cut in half-it was delicious, and we got the guacamole which was great.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options

This place looks great. It smells good, and the food must be good too, but we will never return. We went in with a young child who can get a bit picky with food. Yes we were going to let her try the other dishes too but we wanted one plain cheese quesadilla (which used to be on their menu the day before) as a safety. The chef refused. If your menu says that tacos are served as a quesadilla with cheese, you can definitely make one quesadilla with nothing but cheese in it. If that wasn't there, it wouldn't have irked me as much. Surely, you could have made it and charged us for one of the cheaper tacos. What are they going to do with people with dietary restrictions? Lack of flexibility that's not so far from what's already on their menu is ridiculous.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly, won't accommodate anything.

Very cool restaurant with Mexican food. Decorated with Mexican wrestling decoration, affordable Mexican beer and very delicious food. Very friendly
Super attentive chill little spot. This hit the spot! Attentive staff and great food. I was worried because the neighborhood is known for being touristy and as I walked along, I stumbled upon this place and was so happy. I started out with a Sexico - mixed just right- refreshing and made me want a second one. The tacos came and the tortillas were melt in my mouth good! I opted for some Street corn after which was amazing! It's a must! Absolutely need to order the elojte callejero when you come here!

The pepino diablo was absolutely delicious. The perfect amount of refreshing to spice. The fundido was also very good just overly sweet. Nice spot for a quick bite or drinks with friends!

Maybe it's because I can from Texas but these tacos are trash. Great presentation but the less flavorful meat I have ever had. It was impressive how flavorless the meat is. I honestly had not idea you could do that. Servers are nice though.
