As many of the other reviews note this is not your typical Mexican restaurant, for me that is a good thing. The food was full of wonderful flavor, perfectly spiced and very fresh. I thought it was reasonably priced and the service was just right. If we visit that part of the sate again I will definitely go back!

Yes.. at little more expensive than typical mexican restaurant but the quality of the food and diversity of authentic flavors justifies the cost. Felt like we were in a truely "gourmet" restaurant that happened to be mexican. Real taste treat! Salsa was delicious... again.. not your typical salsa. Owners very nice people. Wonderful meal... will go back.

A colleague and I visited on a Tuesday evening in early October. The food was good but not exceptional, and we found the overall ambience somewhat lacking. The service was terrible. The waitress was abrupt and preoccupied. The overall value was nothing remarkable. Probably will not return. Your mileage may vary with other waitstaff and menu items.

The menu was non traditional, none of the TEx-Mex food people associate with. The food was carefully prepared with authentic flavors only found south of the border. I caution the cook to not overindulge on the salt. The 'totopos' (tortilla chips) were home made but extremely salty. Otherwise these are excellent appetizers. The tacos were the real thing.

Nice little (maybe 7 tables) southwestern restaurant with fairly authentic food, according to our friends who lived in Sante Fe for years. Likes included the pozole (excellent), tacos, and green salad. The chile relleno was only so-so. Decor was simple but attractive, and the place was very clean. Service was competent but not particularly notable one way or the other.... More

This can be a good date night restaurant to combine with a movie at the historic Liberty Theater just across the street. However, you will want to time your visit to carefully to avoid the toddler & kids dining scene around 6 p.m. and when the staff puts the "closed" sign in the front window at 9 p.m. We walked...

A pleasant surprise find in a quaint town. Delicious, fresh, and innovative take on Mexican cuisine. Husband and wife team who renovated space in historic old town Camas into an open/airy restaurant. Great drinks with $2 off at Happy Hour(s)

This place has fantastic food, and great service. The tacos are fairly simle, but have amazing flavors. The chili relleno is just amazing! I just love going there!

Mesa is a small locally owned and run restaurant featuring really good unique Mexican fare. Cocktails are a "must" each hand crafted with quality ingredients . None better at twice the price. There is nothing on their menu that I would not recommend to anyone. We travel to many national and international cities and visit many great restaurants but when... More
