Great Food!. I went in thought it was going to be decent food because it looks so small and quiet. but when i ordered the deviled shrimp and i tried it, wow was it great, and spicy too just how i like it. the chips were warm and the salsas were fresh, and i loved the rice water. the waiter was extremely friendly. i would for sure go back and bring all my friends. Great food.

delcious regional mexican food. went on a saturday night the week of valentines day not expecting to get a table, but the place was comfortably full and the service was excellent. friendly and helpful. food was delicious- we got the chorizo flautas appetizer, chiles rellenos and some kind of chicken for dinner, and plantains and ice cream for dessert. total bill was $33. SWEET. plus, it's BYOB which wins me over anyway. the restaurant was small so it would be uncomfortable for parties over 4-6, nearly impossible for ones larger.

Friendly B.Y.O.B. storefront in Uptown serves fresh, creative Mexican fare at cheap-eats prices.. In Short
With its sunny yellow walls, purple wainscoting and floral tablecloths, this two-room restaurant is a refreshing splash of color on the gritty Sheridan strip, with low prices that make it a popular spot for locals dining solo and on dates. The menu features regional Mexican dishes like caldo tlalpeno (simple, hearty chicken soup with avocado and lime wedges) and grilled chicken in tangy tomatillo and pumpkin-seed sauce, plus standards like tacos and tamales.
