Dedicated bar seating faces bottles and taps. The cantina spreads behind it with indoor and outdoor tables.\n\nThe kitchen has been running California-inspired Mexican food for over a decade, building everything on handmade tortillas and slow-cooked meats finished with house-made salsas that arrive at the table in squeeze bottles and bowls. The carne asada quesadilla wraps grilled steak and melted Jack cheese for 435฿. Al pastor comes spit-roasted with pineapple at 360฿ per taco. The quesa-birria tacos arrive with consomé for dipping, grilled tortilla edges crisped with cheese, priced at 270-310฿ depending on portion. Baja fish tacos bring battered fish and avocado salsa at 275฿. The wet burrito gets smothered in house-made salsa with your choice of filling, starting at 340฿. Mission-style proportions mean one burrito covers a full meal, so pace yourself if you order appetizers first.\n\nThe menu spans Mexi-tacos, Cali-tacos, specialty builds, burritos, enchiladas, fajitas, quesadillas, nachos, soups, salads, and a kids section. Vegetarian options run through most categories. Brunch items appear on weekends and the bar stocks beer, wine, cocktails, and spirits for dine-in or to accompany takeaway orders.\n\nWeekday hours run 11 AM to 11 PM; weekends start an hour earlier at 10 AM and brunch service extends until 3 PM, so late risers have coverage. Reservations go through the phone line for lunch, brunch, and dinner slots. The restaurant has picked up features in Thailand Tatler and Louis Vuitton City Guide Bangkok since opening in 2010. Come with at least two people if you want to sample across the menu without over-ordering.","our_take":"Lead with the quesa-birria tacos if you want the signature move. The kitchen balances traditional technique with California ease, and the pricing lands in the mid-range for Bangkok Mexican. Brunch runs until 3 PM on weekends, which gives you breathing room if you sleep in. Worth the trip for the house-made salsas alone.","custom_description":null,"hook":"Mission-style Mexican kitchen in Mahatun Plaza off Phloen Chit.
