byThis is probably the best Mexican restaurant in Des Moines area (or top 3). There are several things to like. For one, the menu is closer to authentic Mexican home cooking than to ever-present Tex-Mex. There are dishes with flavorful sauces (check out Chicken Poblano or Chicken Pipian) that go beyond the red vs. green and I have not seen cheddar used on any of the dishes. Additionally, the menu includes a set of healthier options for those who care about that. I think this is the first Mexican restaurant I have seen do that. The service is quick and friendly, the prices are comparable to most Mexican restaurants in town. Strongly recommend.
