    I was pleasantly surprised as a Mexican 🇲🇽🙋🏻‍♀️person and from the DMV area. The sopes were so delicious. They’re definitely very modern, but tasted so good. My Mexican mom can’t even make this. My partner got the Tlayuda, which was so good. I got two tongue tacos, and one shrimp taco and I love both of them, but the shrimp one was the best. I also got a side of beans and rice. Overall would come back here.

    Chicatana is INSANELY good. We didn't have any expectations coming here and were totally blown away by the quality of the food. Enmole was delicious. Creamy, spicy, not too bitter, and incredibly flavorful. The passion fruit flan is a must get as well!

    Steer clear of aguas chiles if you are a big fan, it lacked flavor, but tacos and mole were delicious!! Sat quickly despite being packed, normal service.

    We came here from Seattle because of the Google reviews. The food was delicious (lobster taco) and the spicy passion fruit margarita was top notch! Would recommend! Make a reservation or come early as it fills up fast
