Review


I had really high hopes for this place, as I’ve been craving good GF Mexican food for awhile.

Pros: atmosphere is nice and airy, and bright and cheery.

Great chips and salsa, definitely ate more than I should have.

The churros were delish.

Cons: ordered the chicken tinga tacos and the shrimp enchiladas. Both were very bland. The chicken was obviously just blanched or boiled, plain shredded chicken with a lackluster enchilada-type sauce. Honestly, I’ve had jarred sauces at home with more flavor. The tacos are very small, and not worthy of the $. As for the enchiladas, the shrimp was just pan sautéed (not grilled), and the sauce was just spicy… somehow with very little discernible flavor.

In speaking to our server, they acknowledged there are dishes on the menu that are a little more ‘simple’ in flavor, and others that pack a flavor punch (as I would expect from good Oaxacan cuisine). We’ll try again, and see if we yield better results from different menu choices.
