We were pleasantly surprised to get table for 5 on a Sunday afternoon walk-in to this place.
We were starving and felt like trying some Mexican food.
Our server Jenn was friendly and attentive, and we got straight to ordering as soon as we were seated. They were serving both, brunch and Lunch menu, and their lunch menu looked a much better than the brunch menu.
We started off with a few $18 cocktails, which included a winner - El Pepino - very very refreshing and also not that spirit forward. Foodwise, we got the Coliflor Fundido ($16) - served with some excellent Tostadas.
These were very tasty, but nothing can beat their absolutely excellent tacos, which included Vegan Mushroom Carnitas ($7 each), and Tinga de Pollo.
The Mushroom tacos were spectacular which set the bar very high for our mains, which sadly, did not live up to the level! The Chulita Bowl ($19) while presented in a very nice way, lacked taste, which even the Vegan Chorizo couldn't fix.
Our table had a similar experience with the Chicken Tinga bowl. Service however was very good, food arrived within 20-mins of ordering, and noise levels were on the lower end.
A very positive experience overall.

I came here a year ago and tried the ceviche and the coliflor fundido; I absolutely loved the latter. I came here last month (Oct 2023), reordered the fundido as well as a few other items. COLIFLOR FUNDIDO $16.00 ***** 5/5 This dish can fill you up.
It’s delicious but a little difficult to describe.
It has the flavor and consistency of melted cheese - gives you that awesome cheese pull - but then also has some slight cauliflower flavor….
Much less than you’d expect.
The micro greens on top add a light refreshing flavor. It is served with blue corn tostadas you break into chips and dunk into the cheesy goodness; you can ask for more if you need them. This dish will always be a staple when I come here. STEAK TACO w/cassava tortilla $8 **** 4.5/5 The steak was cooked medium rare to perfection (make sure to ask for them this way if you want them cooked red).
It was juicy and flavorful.
Tastes very fresh.
There is a good amount of meat- enough to take half off and make two smaller tacos because you are given two cassava tortillas.
These had just the right amount of avocado.
The only thing I wish is for it to be served with a little more pico de gallo. I would definitely get this again. I paid for the above and highly recommend you try them, but nothing I’ve tried here is bad.
So explore! Get a group of friends together and try multiple things.
I doubt you will be disappointed. Through yelp, I was fortunate enough to be able to try a couple other items for free. TAQUITOS DE CAMOTE**** 4.5/5 These are vegan. The tortilla shells have a good crunch, the camotes add a smooth texture to the inside, the vegan jalapeño aioli adds spice (in love with this sauce), and then they have pickled onions and radish with micro-greens on top which add wonderful complementary flavors.
I even reheated one of the taquitos at home for my mom, and it was still good! When I visited, there was a month-long yelp check in deal for free churros.
I couldn’t pass that up! PUMPKIN PIE SPICED CHURROS *** 3/5 These were not like any churro I’ve had before, but keep in mind these are not normal churros, these are vegan and gluten free.
They came out piping hot! The carmel sauce tasted mostly of coffee or espresso, so I wasn’t a fan of it with the churros, but I did enjoy it at home atop whipped cream :) hehe Although these are not my favorite churros, I think they are a good option for people who are gluten-intolerant or have celiac disease. I think I might prefer, and thus definitely want to try, the VEGAN CHOCOLATE PUDDING I had two servers waiting on me, Juliet and Camille.
Juliet greeted me, gave me recommendations, and took my order, while Camille brought me water and checked on me later.
Both were courteous and good waitresses. I love the location of this restaurant.
It has such a great beach vibe/ vacation aesthetic.
They are part indoor, part outdoor.
I was able to find a parking spot about a block away, but it can be difficult at busy times.
