"This Mexican restaurant in Astoria takes a maximalist approach to dinner that’s perfect for groups. Why serve a habanero mango cocktail without torching a sprig of rosemary in it first? Why paint a patio muted pastel pink when a shade called “hot pink” exists? If there’s a vat of earthy mole negro in the kitchen, why not pour a pint of it onto a plate with chicken enchiladas or tender short rib? The portions of Oaxacan specialties here are massive, and the mole and tequila flow like tap water. Start your family meal with some gooey choriqueso and a round of cocktails." - hannah albertine, kenny yang
