Not a Chipotle or cookie cutter Mexican restaurant. The flavors were amazing. I had the rack of lamb. Wow. So good. On the pricier side but worth every penny. Can’t wait to go back.

Upscale Mexican food if you’re looking for a “fancier” spot for an evening out; limited menu but very authentic dishes and homemade sauces. On the pricier side for portions. Service was good not exceptional. Delicious and would come back! A nice hidden gem on Cicero Ave
