    Wow! We absolutely loved this place! I had chosen this restaurant quite randomly because we had a show at the Laugh Factory afterward. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the outstanding service and food. We ordered the 48-hour marinated skirt steak. The chimichurri sauce was incredible, and the mushrooms were cooked to perfection. The steak was done perfectly at medium. highly recommend if you’re in the area!

    We enjoyed everything about our first visit to this neighborhood gem. Welcoming, inviting, cozy space with gentle lighting and Oaxacan decor. Tables well spaced. Excellent beverages featuring Oaxacan mezcals, tequilas, prickly pear, etc. We split a starter of wild mushrooms cooked in a plantain leaf with a tart green side sauce. Outstanding entrees: succulent roast rabbit in golden mole (made with roasted yellow cherry tomatoes) and crispy-tender marinated grilled quail with roast cactus and plum sauce. All revelatory and satisfying.
