“ Lots of healthy juice options, big portions, delicious quesadillas. Perfect brunch place on a weekend! ”
“ I forgot to take photos of our meal but the food is extremely tasty and the service is amazing. We left room for desert and the arroz con leche was delicious and the jello in shape of corn on the cob was very good and presentation was clever. It’s a small cozy restaurant with great food will definitely come back. ”
“ The place ia really nice if you're in town to try something very chilango. Then again, the prices are a little high for my taste and the dishes are something you could also find in every corner. It's not a very comfortable establishment and there's a lot of waiting time. ”
“ Went there to celebrate a reunion of colleges friends and what an incredible place! The atmosphere the unique location, the quality of the ingredients and they creative and authentic one of a kind menu was an eye-opening another delightful culinary experience. they even have a pre-Hispanic insect menu available in a seasonal basis and I was able to go into the kitchen and see that they produce their own corn in two different types and they basically grind the corn and process it to create their own tortillas from scratch and all dishes made with corn. I would definitely recommend this place for all people who love to experience authentic Mexican corn dishes, and to share that with more and more people to have amazing gourmet experiences. ”
“ Good vibe, good food, good service! The weather was nice so we sat outside and it was safe as a tourist. The menu looked adventurous. They had insects in their pre-Hispanic section! Didn’t dare to order that but we ordered tlacoyo and flautas. The former was ordered in a ‘drowned’ version and the jalapeño-based sauce was yum! The tlacoyo itself wasn’t my cup of tea. Good experience as it was our first try. The flautas were a bit bland but portion was good. The fresh juices were refreshing! ”
