Worth it?
Go with an open mind and an appetite. There is no fixed menu: the kitchen keeps sending out dishes built on house-nixtamalized heirloom corn until you say you are done, and the line-up changes daily with what is fresh. That suits curious eaters who enjoy giving up control, less so anyone who needs to know the order in advance. Two practical catches: it takes no reservations and accepts cash only.
Before you go
- Bring cash. Cards are not accepted.
- Reservations are not taken, so plan to walk in.
- Tell the staff what you like and what you avoid, since dishes are tailored to each diner.
- Say when you are full. That is how the meal ends.
Highlights
- No fixed menu; dishes are tailored to diner preferences
- Focus on house-nixtamalized heirloom corn
- Casual, communal seating with an open kitchen
- Walk-in only; no reservations accepted
- Cash-only payment policy
