My boyfriend and I dropped in on a Saturday afternoon and were seated outside right away. The tortillas instead of chips was different but good. We knew right away the food would be good when we tasted the salsas they brought. You can order your beer with a flair, which means it comes in a salt rimmed glass with lemon juice and ice. I found it to be very refreshing. I was hesitant about the ""tapas style"" but loved it in the end. The food was amazing. I am use to authentic mexican food and have to say this is the first time I have found it in California. I am orginally from Tucson, AZ and I truly miss the close to the border Mexican food.The mole tasted amazing and I loved the torta de elote was like had not had in years. The prices were what I expected for Santan Row. We had the guacamole, one entree, two sides and two beers. With tip our meal came to $50 and we were stuffed. We have already made plans to come back with my parents. If you like Authentic Mexican food you will truly enjoy this bistro! \r

The one down side... our waiter was slow. He was very polite but we waited forever for our check. Good thing the weather was so nice. We spent almost two hours there!
Pros: Torta de Elote
Cons: Service was slow
