The restaurant is sort of off the beaten path and Arcata. I don't get thrown off because this place is not to be missed. This is our second time here and everything we've ordered off the menu was delicious. The restaurant is spacious and clean. It's low-key but definitely could host a party! The service is great too!
I'm soo very glad I decided to check this place out. Love the atmo and the food flavorful- really good. This is my new go to. Yum!
We're in town for the holidays and were so happy to give this restaurant a try. It was DELICIOUS & the staff was very attentive. We tried the chile relleno + molcajete + Huarache. My family and I live in Los Angeles and this place is definitely up there:)
Hands down one of the best Chicken torta (Order Pambazo) ever! The bread was dipped and grilled with spices and the chicken and inside sauces were amazing! We also ordered Tofu fajita which was good and we were delighted to find a vegetarian fajita with protein (Tofu) Highly recommended!
Great whole chile rellenos. I love the #10 combo, with black beans. Add a flour tortilla and some chopped up fresh jalapeño and cold beer; and I'm in heaven. Great service and good ambience. You can have your dog with you on the patio.
