We stopped here for lunch while traveling through Las Cruces, and we're so glad we did! The mole flight was amazing. Trying the different varieties next to each other was a unique experience. The poblano vegano was perfect for my wife. The server let us take our time and enjoy everything. If you are in the area, try this cafe!

What a lovely place to stop for a great meal! It was lunchtime and several tables were seated, but it wasn't overly crowded. The menu has a great variety of dishes with something for everyone. Our waitress was informative, attentive, and very pleasant. The ambiance is nice with music (a modest volume so you could carry on a conversation) and artwork tastefully displayed on the walls. We tried the quecas with huitlacoche to start. It had such great corn flavor and a delicious filling. Our waitress also provided a flight of their mole. All of them were wonderful. For entrees, we had the enmoladas and the poblano vegano. Both were very well prepared and tasted great. This was an excellent spot for a great meal and great service. We will definitely return when we're in the area.
