San Mateo Menus
Traditional Mexican dishes and flavors, sourced from family recipes that originated in Mexican states from The Gulf, to The Pacific, are not only the inspiration–they’ll be the rule. Committed to honoring Mexican tradition, ours is a Bay Area-based Mexican restaurant, thought about in a different way.
