Creative Modern Mexican in Sunnyside with standout mole, birria, and warm service; expect moderate prices and occasional portion/value gripes.
The room feels warm and bustling with a neighborhood vibe, where servers remember faces and the bar keeps the margs coming. One diner said the team was "kind, funny, and hospitable," and another praised a server who brought tasting samples. On busy days it can be a touch louder, but most describe service as attentive and welcoming. The kitchen leans Modern Mexican with creative twists: a deep, balanced mole poblano, quesabirria with clean consome, Brussels with salsa macha, and occasional fusion specials like a Korean BBQ taco. Portions skew balanced rather than massive, and pricing sits above casual taquerias, justified by quality ingredients and thoughtful execution. Drinks range from classic house margs to a spicy version that some warn is truly hot. Families do well here thanks to simple tacos, brunch standbys like chilaquiles and huevos rancheros, and sides like beans and plantains. While there is no explicit kids menu noted, the menu is kid-accessible with flexible spice levels and options that can be customized for milder palates.
