We started off by ordering some drinks- including iced tea and cucumber lime agua and Chaya lime pineapple (this one was ok).We ordered a few dishes to share: the regional table, the coconut shrimp, and the chili rellano. The regional table is a great way to sample many of the different local dishes listed under the traditional column. We really enjoyed the guacamole, local sausage, local tacos, and sauces that came with the sampler. The coconut shrimp was alright, the crust was a bit thick so it led to the shrimp being a bit too crunchy. The chili rellano was amazing! We opted for the meat and cheese. You could taste how fresh the poblano pepper was and the sauce that surrounded the pepper went so well with the meat and cheese filling. Overall we really enjoyed this restaurant.

Surprisingly, the tortillas were extremely bland and the tortilla chips didn't have much flavor either. Of course, covering both in guacamole did the trick.
Service was extremely polite and welcoming, which was on par with other restaurants we tried during our stay. All in all, not bad.

The sauce was so flavorful I used some tortillas to soak it all up. We also tried the poc chuc made with chicken (thin slices of meat first marinated and then grilled), which was tasty although my son thought the poc chuc was a bit dry. Service was professional and helpful. We enjoyed the traditional Mexican atmosphere.
