It is about taking the time to experience what Mexican food is. We offer you authentic Sonoran, Mexican cuisine. You can expect tacos, tacos like you’ve never had before. It’s the way I grew up eating them. The tortilla, made with corn or flour, no fried shell, with cabbage, guacamole, limes, pickled onions, and funky salsas. All with different notes of color and flavor.”
