An authentic Mexican restaurant with a loyal following that traces back to its original Itaewon location, now operating from Sinsa Square in Sinsa-dong. The defining feature is house-made corn tortilla tacos, a rarity among Korean taco restaurants, where flour tortillas are the norm. Al pastor and carnitas tacos are essential orders, delivering rich, gradually addictive flavors. The guacamole blends fresh avocado with a subtle cilantro infusion that does not overpower, pairing exceptionally well with crispy nachos as a beer accompaniment. Handmade salsa and chipotle hot sauce further elevate every dish. The enchiladas are equally well-executed, and generous portioning is a consistent point of praise. The second-floor dining area features Mexican sombreros repurposed as wall-mounted lampshades and wide windows that create an open, lively atmosphere. On weekends, arriving right at the 11:30 AM opening is recommended to avoid a wait. Prices run on the higher side, but the ingredient quality and authenticity justify the premium for many diners.
