10/10 experience!! Food was phenomenal and service was incredible! Jennifer, Margarita, and the whole weekend crew were exceptional! We had delicious nachos, quesabirras, chicken and shrimp Fajitas and tres leches. The fajitas and tres leches were our favorite! Highly recommend if you want a great authentic Mexican meal!!!

Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish. The food was beyond a 10/10—super, super, super flavorful in every bite. I’ve been to so many Mexican restaurants, but this one easily stands at the top. The flavors were bold, fresh, and unforgettable. Jennifer was an amazing server, and head Chef Hugo truly made the experience special. He was incredibly talkative and interactive, took the time to explain the meaning behind the restaurant, showed us examples, and genuinely made an effort to connect with us. You can tell he truly cares about his customers and is passionate. From the second I walked in, I felt so welcomed, and the amazing vibes lasted all the way until the end. I don’t know if it was the food, the people, or both—but everything about this place was just perfect.

Epazote was such a vibe! I felt like I was so welcomed here and the food was immaculate!
Our waitress was very helpful when choosing from the menu – had we bigger stomachs, we probably would’ve ordered everything on the menu (..we did with the dessert menu)
We came on Margarita Monday and were pleasantly surprised by not only the size of the margs, but the quality! Great spot for drinks!
The molé was very flavorful and unique, and had a great spicy kick to it that added just enough heat to make its presence known but not too spicy!
The quesabirria, tamale, gorditas, every single bite was blatantly made with utmost passion.
I suggested this restaurant to several friends and family in the area after rolling out of here after all the food we ate. As I mentioned, had we had bigger stomachs, we would have probably tried everything on the menu.
A fantastic gem in Ft Lauderdale. It’s very clear the staff love what they do, and I will definitely be coming back

We had a fantastic dining experience here! The duck mole was the highlight, perfectly tender and incredibly flavorful. We also tried the quesabirria tacos, which were delicious and packed with savory, cheesy goodness. The café de olla was warm, fragrant, and the perfect touch of sweetness and spice.
The owner even came by our table to chat, which made the experience feel personal and welcoming. Every member of the staff was friendly, attentive, and truly impeccable in their service. Overall, an outstanding meal and atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

One the best Mexican food in this area. Food was delicious and service was great. We had the whole fried snapper and pablno sauce covered Mahi mahi. Chef told us it was happy accident. One day his wife wanted fish but he had pablno sauce for something else that he was planning to cook. He used thatwith the mahi mahi and become an instant hit. We enjoyed all the food over there and may go back for Christmas day brunch. Highly recommend this place.

Well well well … one of the most authentic Mexican restaurants I have eaten so far! … it’s not Americanized so you get the real flavor from Mexico!!! Hugo and Simone are the owners …. You can feel the professional chef experience and the family touch they bring to this business. The restaurant was packed on a Tuesday evening so be prepared for a little wait! But it’s worth it! Well done you guys…. ¡Muchas gracias por la experiencia gastronómica que traes a esta zona! ¡Sigue con tu espíritu! Bien hecho

What a good find! Jennifer served me and was extremely great service. The food was delicious and the owner took the time to come and introduce himeself. It’s rare to find a spot with good Mexican on the east coast like when I lived in California this was the spot!
