Parking is easy to find, with spots available on the major street and surrounding side streets, so you won’t have to worry much about that. We made a reservation via Table, which helped us get seated quickly—though it’s worth noting that most reservations seemed to be for larger parties, so we had a bit of an advantage as a smaller group. The service was prompt, and they took our order right away. We already knew what we wanted: I went with the green chilaquiles, my husband had the red, and my daughter opted for pancakes. Everything was delicious! A highlight was the Café de Olla—when we ordered the large, we were pleasantly surprised by the huge mug they brought out! It was so enjoyable. The atmosphere is also worth mentioning. The art and vibrant colors give the space a lively, welcoming feel. It’s a great spot whether you're with family or friends, perfect for a relaxed meal or catching up. We had a fantastic time and will definitely be coming back!

I love the food and the prices are reasonable. The only thing that bug me is that a lot of restaurants do not go that extra step. We went for a birthday celebration and I wish some type of treat would be served to the birthday person as a courtesy. But overall everything was great.

Food is good but service could be better. Menu states to be patient, which is a sign that their staff is not equipped to give good service.
