You'd almost miss it if you didn't pay attention, it's between Italy Station and a little old lady hawking handbags. I arrived at 7 and it was already 70% filled up, thankfully I snared two seats by the kitchen counter top and passed the time watching tortillas being toasted and ceviches being assembled while I waited for my girl friend to arrive. Looking around, there's so much to admire - the graffiti art on the walls, funky little decorations, the textured wooden furniture, eclectic designs o
The menu was simple yet thoughtful, easy to share and with a decent variety. As I say, no need to make it complicated, if it works, it works perfect.
The market fish ceviche was tasty, but the fish was a little cold after coming out straight from the freezer (and we could verify it as it was made right in front of us).
The tuna tostada had quite a lot of sauce which was a little thin in consistency for dipping, but the taste was quite delicate despite the colours and we enjoyed scooping it up with the crispy chips.
The cactus salad was interesting, and nicely tossed with crumbled cheese, onion rings and cherry tomatos. The two tortillas weren't enough to accommodate so much of the salad, and the ceviche-maker kindly slid us two more. Now THAT'S what I call service!
The highlight has to be the mixed platter tortilla which pretty much everyone in the restaurant ordered - lengua (ox tongue), pulled pork, deep fried fish, beef and chicken. I loved them all except the beef, which was way too salty, and the fat congealed into white blobs before we got to it in time. My favourite was the pork, seems the Mexicans just have a knack for making it so damn good.
And I love that big ass bottle of chili sauce.
Service is friendly and casual, but you do need to try before you get their attention as they're all busy flitting around.
