I’m from Mexico City and we’re visiting from Phoenix so I feel like we know good tacos and margaritas and hands down some of the best of both we’ve had in a very long time. They’re also super friendly and quick service, they didn’t mind that my daughter was sleeping in her stroller and parked her by our table. Can’t recommend enough more!

We were charged twice over a drink mix-up with no apology.
A single cup of Agua Fresca is NINE dollars.
The tacos are good, and very well priced!
The $19 dish was also very good, but very overpriced for a tiny portion.
Really had higher expectations of this place after visiting La Diabla (sister restaurant), but came away from my $70 snack very irritated at the service and portions when compared to the price.

Malinche is incredible and now holds the title of our favorite spot! The service and attention to detail here are out of this world and Brian, the bartender, treated us like dear friends from the minute we sat down. He clearly loves what he does. It was so fun hearing him share his knowledge of agave spirits, he definitelyhas a passion for the culture and it's exciting to sit front row and watch him work his magic. The entire staff was really quite amazing, they all went out of their way to treat us well.
The food and cocktails are just next level, and while it's hard to choose a favorite, the tuna tostada was completely unforgettable and is definitely calling me back!
This joint is heavy on vibes and exactly what I look for in a date night or HH with friends, kinda dark, intimate, romantic, mysterious...felt like we stumbled into some sexy hole-in-the-wall in Mexico and made our anniversary really special. The vinyl selections really added that extra touch too, such a cool spot!
It's truly a special place, just go!
