Opened by the famous chef, Rick Bayless May 2017! Best Mexican place in UTC area. They have great (and budget-friendly) happy hour (3-7pm daily) menu including amazing empanadas, tamales and $3 tacos! Only 5 mins away from my place. If you don't want to travel to North Park or further for other taco places, this is definitely the place to stop by and enjoy Baja Californian style Mexican food!

Great brunch place with a variety of brunch cocktails! Highly recommend their pancakes (try their pancake flight to get all the flavors you want!), egg benedict and corned beef hash. Their brunch cocktails made with bourbon and coffee are really good. Make sure you put your name on wait list using yelp before you go. The wait may be ~45-60 mins on weekends but since it's only 5-min away from my place you can just put your name down on yelp and go over when it's almost time. No wait at all (which is VERY RARE for brunch places in SD.)
