Lovely little upscale Mexican restaurant tucked away downtown with great food and service. Our appetizers and churros were... lovely even with the peanut salsa. Aside from the table that tilted to the side, no complaints and bring thanks to Paula for agreat night. See you soon Penca! Read more
My meal was amazing! I ordered the appetizer Tuetano which consists of 'Roasted Forbes bone marrow, epazote chimichurri,... microgreens, chile toreado, chicharron, flour tortillas'. My entree was Filete Flanco which consists of 'Char-grilled Arizonaflank steak, pistachio pipian verde, pickled shishito, sunflower salsa macha'. Both were excellent! Everyone at my table reallyenjoyed their meal. I highly recommend this restaurant if you like a higher end Mexican meal (presentation, cost, and flavor).The wait staff was also friendly, patient, and prompt. Read more
Great service. Really good food. Two items I ordered they were out of. ( and I got there as they opened) the restaurant was... very clean and restrooms as well. Make reservations if you can, otherwise the wait is really long, but I'm certain with it. Iwill be back! Read more
Whoa my God the food (and tequila flights) here are so good. We sat at the bar and had great service. My only critique is the... location on Broadway is incredibly unfriendly to people biking. We had to bike on the sidewalk from our hotel and there was nobike parking. Read more

My wife and I recently went for dinner to celebrate our 9 year anniversary. When we arrived, we got a seat towards the back. It... was nice and quiet which was perfect. However, the kitchen door would remain cracked which was distracting seeing the cooks. Idid see some wipe their forehead or scratch their nose with the back of their hand with the same gloves they use to cook. Notthe best thing to see before you eat. We get how kitchens work but we preferred not to see that. We didn't make a big stink, butwe asked to be seated somewhere else which happened with no problem. The waitress was nice and knew the Menu well. We got somecocktail to start which were nice. I got the drink with bacanora which was strong but flavorful. For the appetizer, we got thebone marrow. It was hardy and seasoned just enought where you can enjoy the marrow. It comes with pickled onion, chimichurri Ibelieve, and warm Tortillas. We made a taco out of it and crush it quick. For entree, I got the beef ribs with hominy. It wasperfect. It had a raspberry sauce I believe with some greens to make it pop. 10 of out 10 dish. My wife got the fish. Honestly,it was underwhelming for the price point. At around 30 bucks, i would have expected a better delivery. It might be pan searedperhaps but it came in a bit dry. By itself, it was okay. The toppings saved the day. I would not order that again. We finishedwith a round of drinks and called it a night. Read more
