Love the use of mesquite in Mole! Had a great experience, feel like the higer price is very appropriate for the quality & inflation. Got a Queen Green to go before the thermal pools cuz it's hard to find gems like this
This place is a keeper. Delicious food, good espresso, very good service. I ordered the Lucky Salmon, which was delicious, very nicely presented, and a very decent portion. I also ordered a drink called Bullet Proof whose flavor, to my taste, was not up to par. Their cortado coffee was delicious. The service is prompt and friendly. I do recommend this place.
Excellent breakfast or lunch spot for vegan, vegetarian, or just healthy eating in general. Extensive selection of juices, multiple types of kombucha, smoothies, teas (even some made from dried fruit). Food options were varied and interesting, I had today's special, a sort of stuffed chile relleno with quinoa and peanut sauce (I'm allergic to the standard almond sauce). Meal was perfectly portioned, quite flavorful and superbly plated. They also had a handful of dessert options. Came back again, still fantastic! Broccoli soup was delicious, as was nachos. Buddha bowl was gigantic, v-burgers were great also. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating with a nice atmosphere, good view of mountains, and table service comes with pour-your-own mint water, which was nice. They had some great art for sale inside as well as a variety of veg/healthy products. Meal came to 200 pesos for large peach kombucha & stuffed chile. Highly recommend!
After a couple of days of eating street tacos for breakfast and birria for lunch, my body needed a nice healthy meal. I stopped in here and had a most delicious salad filled with beautiful lettuces, tomatoes, hard-boiled eggs, avocado, carrots, etc. I enjoyed it with a coconut water on their lovely, tranquil patio out back. Service was nice and prices were good. This place is a true gem! A must for when your body is craving vegetables.
Very cute and cozy restaurant with a garden. The food was super tasty and healthy, the owner is very kind and knowledgeable and good service. I ordered the portobello burger and it was absolutely delicious. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the Ajijic area!
Very tranquil space, excellent selection of mixed juices. Food was great. One of the few places that offer gluten free meals
Great food, quality and presentation. Menu has something for everyone. The portobello burger and Udon noodle bowl were delicious!
