The lighting was warm and the whole place felt easy to be in. Food was solid, staff friendly enough. Good spot for a relaxed dinner.

The al pastor tacos are still on point every time I come here. Meat&rsquo;s always tender, good seasoning. Place gets busy but that&rsquo;s fine.

The chilaquiles were solid, man. Big plate, cheap price, and they didn&#39;t skimp on the salsa. Left full, which is all I ask for. Place gets busy around noon, but it&#39;s worth it. Not fancy, but it does the job.

The vibe here is so cool &mdash; all retro and hippie with art and books everywhere. We came for a casual catch-up and it was perfect for that. Molletes plate was huge and tasty. Service was a bit slow but whatever, we weren&#39;t in a rush.

Norma remembered my order from last time, which was kinda nice. Food&#39;s been solid every time I stop by, and the price is right for what you get. Place feels comfortable, like you&#39;re not just another customer. Maybe not the fanciest spot in town, but it does the job.

The new spot has a little bakery and art gallery inside&mdash;gives it a nice local vibe. Coffee was solid, plenty of seating too. ☕

Risotto was solid, gnocchi even better. Wine list had a few good picks too. Decent spot for Italian if you&#39;re in the area.

The pizza here actually reminded me of a proper NY slice 🍕 and that hot sauce on the side is dangerously good. Solid spot for a casual Italian fix.

The grilled octopus was really good, and the view of the city is beautiful. Service was friendly, though we did wait a bit for our table.

Steak tacos were solid&mdash;good quality meat, easily one of the better ones in Monterrey. Portions run small though. Fine for a quick bite if you&#39;re nearby.

The mole was good, that&#39;s why I picked this place. But honestly the rest of the menu surprised me more. Had a nice relaxed lunch, server checked on us just enough without hovering. Chairs were comfortable too, which matters when you want to sit and take your time. Modern Mexican done right.

The green chilaquiles were solid, really good flavor. Pan de muerto was a nice touch too. Place felt calm for breakfast, not rushed at all. Chairs were actually comfortable, which is rare around here. Just wish they had a bit more coffee refills without asking.

The cabrito leg was decent but a bit dry. Pork in red sauce came out salty too. Service was on point though, and the whole place has this old-school vibe that&#39;s hard to miss. Honestly you go for the atmosphere more than the food.

The cabrito al pastor was solid, and the piqu&iacute;n salsa they brought out hit the spot with a cold beer.

Old building right on Santa Luc&iacute;a, that&#39;s the vibe. Got the Angus ribeye, cooked solid. Nothing fancy but it hit the spot.

The ribeye was cooked perfectly and our waiter Armando was super attentive. Great spot for a casual dinner with friends.

Solid wine list that pairs well with the seafood. The staff let us take our time between courses, which I appreciated. Food was decent, maybe a touch overpriced for the portions, but the vibe made up for it.

The vegetarian options actually had thought put into them, not just a sad salad. Gustavo checked on us just the right amount. Really solid spot.

Nice spot for a Sunday seafood fix. The aguachile tostadas hit the spot, and the terrace was chill. Just wish they had a proper wine list&mdash;still waiting on their liquor license, so it&#39;s BYO for now.

The food was absolutely delicious, especially the grilled octopus and &#39;El Compadre&#39; taco, which are highly recommended! The service was also top-notch, with Jovani and Captain Ricardo being very attentive throughout our meal.

Stopped by for an early dinner and honestly the food hit the spot. Had a nice glass of red with my meal&mdash;went better than expected. Service was quick, no complaints there. Place fills up fast though, so getting there early is the move. Solid choice if you&#39;re in the area.

Been here a few times now. Ribs are still the move, and the beer stays cold. Appetizers alone will fill you up, so come hungry.

Been coming here for a while now. Sushi&#39;s always fresh, that lemon soy sauce on the table still gets me. Place is tiny, maybe ten tables, but that&#39;s part of the charm.

The birria tacos were seriously good&mdash;broth on the side, meat super tender, and the consomm&eacute; had just the right kick. Price felt a little steep for a casual spot, but honestly the flavor made up for it. I&rsquo;d come back just for that plate. 🌮

The boquiaches here are something else. Had the chicharr&oacute;n one and the bread was so soft, filling had this nice crunch. Barbacoa looked good too, saw it on the table next to mine. Solid little spot for lunch, nothing fancy but it hits right. Kinda wish they had more seating though, felt a bit cramped.

Quick service even when packed. Rice was a bit hard but the seafood broth combo hit the spot.
