Absolutely excellent Mexican place in Eagle Rock. The staff is super friendly and the food is authentic and delicious. They have amazing margaritas and the chips are crunchy and unique. The wait can get a bit long on weekends so plan to wait about 20-40 mins depending on your party size. The inside
Incredible mole! I definitely recommend bringing an appetite… the burrito I ordered was massive. The chips and salsa are unlimited and had some great heat. The servers were friendly and checked in a lot which was good because I needed lots of water for the amazing salsa!
Good happy hour. Inside has a nice cantina style bar area with a few TVs. Highlights of the happy hour are the $4 beers, $9 margaritas and good specials. Food is pretty good. Loved the nachos. Service good. There's street parking but you might have to walk a block or two.

This is literally the best restaurant ever. I don’t even want to tell people that so it doesn’t end of being so popular I can’t get a table, but for real, it is flawless. Everything here is great, food, drinks, vibes, people. I wish I lived next door.
This is one of the best Mexican restaurants in the area! The space is small and quite loud at night, but the overall experience is great. The staff were also very friendly. We had the pinches nachos with the birria meat that was delicious, and then the Carne Asada quesadilla was also fantastic. Over
Super cute local restaurant! Love this place, the service is amazing and the food is delicious. I always come here with family, the ambiance and vibe is perfect. I always recommended the mole duck fries 10/10!
Short 15 minute wait for two people on Valentine’s Day 2023 at 6 pm. Waited outside under the heater. Picked our own table. Somehow we got stuck with a shorter-than-usual table? Seemed like it was an ADA height table near the restrooms.
Quick service. Great food. Decent music. Street parking.
Absolutely a favorite for a date night! We love the cocktails and the immense flavors in all the dishes. For vegetarians I recommend the chorizo cauliflower (spicy!) but there are lots of other options, too. The chicken mole enchiladas are a favorite for omnivores. The salsas are unique and it’s wor
Masterful street Tacos
I was in the local area and remembered coming here awhile back with friends and enjoying it. So I returned back to dive into the menu further.
I decided to go with some street tacos off their menu to see if they could actually compete with street tacos In Los Angeles, because
Great food on the pricey side but you are getting great quality and service so it’s worth iiit. Came here after church with my sister on a Sunday afternoon right before the crowd started trickling I’m. I got the pozole and my sister got the enchiladas with red sauce. Both were amazing. I will say th
Great food the asada and duck carnitas were amazing I definitely recommend try this please. You order in line before you seat but they'll find a table for you so no pressure. The shrimp tacos were on the spicier side but tasted great. Staff friendly small space so larger groups of 6 or more get a li
Looooove this place! I got a duck 2 ways special taco in honor of Jonathan Gold's birthday and enchiladas with chicken and red sauce. Both were incredibly delicious even though I'm not a big fan of corn tortillas. We definitely recommend this place.
Duck tacos were delicious. Fish tacos were good. I also had the mole fries because they are popular but I don't really like mole so I cannot comment. Rosemary water was great and unique.
Note that you order first then grab a table.
Legit my favorite place to eat at! I have a Gluten allergy and the staff ALWAYS let me know what is GF and what isn’t. Duck tacos are AMAZING and the margarita flight is a MUST when I go. I always recommend CaCao to everyone.
10/10 best Mexican food ever ! Wish there was more vegan options but it’s delightful
Great happy hour! Where else can you get a shot of Jameson for $5 (not that I partook)?? I did try the margarita flight and the burger. The presentation is great! Look how pretty!!
