We went for a Sunday lunch. The portions are incredibly small, you pay for chips and salsa. The menu is small, you order under the tacos section and 1 taco is served to you. The food was good but not worth the money. You even have to get up for your water. Another shortfall is the establishment doesn’t have a phone, how does a restaurant not have a phone? It was good but I will probably not be going there in the future.

Awesome spot for dinner last night! Great Mezcal selection and our server Mark B was amazing at explaining & helping us decide. Great food and great service! I swear Mark B was running all over the place to make sure everyone was taken care of. Awesome restaurant, definitely will check it out again soon!

Cozy and warm as if you were dining at someone's house and with food to match. Ordered the palmero mezcal which was made to perfection served with a rim of tajin. For starters the chips and salsa with guacamole was more than generous and delicious. As for the mains, I'd highly reccommend the Chicken Mole, it's as if someone's grandma had been cooking and made it. Our server Jorge was attentive and gave his honest opinion to make our dining experince worthwhile. Can't wait to come back to check out happy hour!

Have been wanting to try this place and so glad I finally did! Came for a few drinks and loved the vibe. I sampled some Mezcal which was really tasty and the bartender who served me was super helpful in navigating my choice. I’m definitely coming back to try some food as the tacos looked amazing. Great date spot or place to just chill and enjoy some nice drinks.

Questions & Answers

Is there a functioning phone number to this location? Posted number does not work.

I asked them about this. They said they are a tequileria that serves food more than a restaurant. Currently no phone, currently not offering online ordering option.. If you go there to request carry-out, if they are too busy they might not do.

Do you have AC?

Gabriel Gonzales | Aug 20, 2018
Jess Colyer | Aug 20, 2018

Yes. The inside is usually air conditioned. The outside patio however, most likely is not.

Anyone know what their current number is? This one says it's disconnected and the nymber on the revelup website is never answered. They don't take online orders anymore so the only way to do takeout is calling.

I went on a busy Tuesday at 7pm to request carry-out. They said mine was the last carry-out for the evening. Not a sure thing!

Are Tuesdays still Mole day?

I got mole on a Tuesday night and they let me take it to go. Prior to the pandemic mole was always served there and not available to go.

Do you serve pulque, & authentic barbacoa tacos? I'm just curious... not sure if there's anywhere in the county that makes the barbacoa de chivo with the pencas de maguey in a ground pit.

... Which "leaves"* us with the first item in the question: do you serve up the alcoholic drink known as "pulque"? I'm certain that it's commercially available, but perhaps not as common or accessible, or in some cases marketable or saleable. (*It's made with the maguey leaves...)
