"An absolute gem amongst the broad array of choices available in Lausanne when it comes to mexican Restaurants. It's small, central with lots of atmosphere and hand crafted beautiful decor ( check out the wall paintings in the loo). The service is friendly and flexible. The prices are on the upper side of things, but that's to be expected in that location. The offer real mexican food and beverages with real vegetarian options for brunch. It's going to be my go to from now on.
Second visit: Sunday brunch. Delicious. Fresh and authentic food, nice service, good price quantity ratio, music a bit loud for conversation but wonderful as before"

"Not so busy on the evening we dined there.
Had a great waiter who was fast and attentive.
Warm and welcoming. EXCELLENT. We shared the main dishes, they were ok overall but nothing standout /memorable. The octopus with pumpkin "Olivia" was missing some texture /crunch. Maybe grill or char the pumpkin beforehand? "Tres Leches" dessert, however was yum and rounded out our evening well. Similarly, the cocktails were standouts. We had the cocktail of the week and a Mexican Mule. Despite the name of the drink, this is a Latin inspired restaurant - no mega plates of nachos, much to our relief. We enjoyed our date, just not a complete "wow" flavor-packed occasion."

"Nice place ! Kind service, good food and margaritas 🍸 the ceviche was very flavorful (a tad salty but otherwise delicious) and the sweet potato fries and sauce were great too. Will come again, especially in spring & summer with the terrace 🌻"
