Push on the unmarked door, and beeline for the house specialty, pulque. Try it infused in a curado of jicama and lime: Read more

Do yourself a favor: come for happy hour and eat tacos and drink margaritas.
Mike ShermanSeptember 12, 2017
If they have the passion fruit margarita it's your lucky day
Peter LadaJanuary 21, 2016
They were out of Pulque Classico but can make Cocktails with it. It's either a scammy upsell or some substitution where I got not what I wanted. Also crammed us into a tiny table in the back. Meh
Sara DavisJanuary 12, 2012
Go out of your comfort zone and try the pig brains! Better than the pig's feet. Guacamole is amazing.
Monica LeslieJune 28, 2016
Great margs down a random alley that used to be known as the "bloody angle"
Guest of a GuestJanuary 18, 2012
The vibe is more mellow than your average "club" with dim, cave-like scenery, hearty Mexican style food, and strong drinks. Read more
Lauren NavarroDecember 1, 2013
The guacamole and carnita tacos are amazing! Must try!
Anna ParisiSeptember 17, 2013

try the pulque - its a mesoamerican fermented drink thats the namesake of the bar
Alejandra Guillén SJune 24, 2018
Food was regular to mediocre - 16$ for three tacos? Crazy expensive. Terrible service, restrooms were disgusting, overall just had a very bad experience and feel like I threw money in the trash.

Great music. Expensive drinks. There were children here tonight....might have been the sweet 16 of the owners. Weird.
Danielle TerenzioSeptember 19, 2013
Braised short rib tacos + jalapeño cucumber margarita = extreme happiness

Mexican in Chinatown; Try pulque (cocktail), tower of salsa and cactus salad
Karla Diaz CanoJanuary 26, 2012
cool underground scene. try the "guava suave" if you like guava. food is decent - the tuna tostadas are good. arrachera tacos are way too greasy.
EdJune 17, 2015
Good Tuesday party! Cheap beers, no dress code
Pierce CrosbyOctober 4, 2013
If you go for margaritas, you will be satisfied, however, don't get caught paying $16 for three corn chip fish tostadas.
jon accarrinoApril 6, 2013
After dinner, the restaurant turns into a dance club.
DipsologyAugust 3, 2012
Watermelon cocktail: Watermelon Margarita with watermelon, lime, agave and tequila

Fresh guacamole, where else can you get pulque? Sikil pak is a pumpkin seed dip that is SICK!
