Genuinely had the best verde pozole in my life here. Huge serving and potato flautas were a perfect addition to it

the drinks were amazing! i ordered the matcha horchata and café de olla with irish cream cold foam. they were decorated for st patrick’s day and even the conchas had shamrocks on them! so delicious! the vibes were cute too and the workers were very friendly. one of them told us to check out the opening of a new store a couple doors down and we did and had a fun day after coming here. thanks so much! we’ll definitely be back ❤️

Stopped in just for an horchata latte at the counter—it was delicious & they made the horchata in house! Reminder: cash only

Very prompt and friendly service, even though the restaurant was busy. I tried the strawberry cold foam matcha and it was delicious! I’ll definitely be back to dine in.

This is a great restaurant to bring friends and family when they visit or just go on any day. The food taste amazing and is reasonably priced for the area. The staff are super friendly and courteous. The interior is very nicely decorated and a cute loving vibe.
