Our Story

A family tradition of authentic flavors, brought from Mexico to Seattle with love

Traditional Mexican restaurant interior

In our Mendoza family, we have carried the spirit of commerce through generations. Our grandmother's entrepreneurial heart beat strongest in our mother, who taught us that success comes through service, hard work, and unwavering dedication.

Starting with a small corner store in Mexico—what we lovingly called "la tiendita de la esquina"—our mother instilled in us the values that would shape our future: genuine hospitality, quality products, and treating every customer like family.

From Dream to Reality

In 2011, Sonia and Carlos brought these cherished traditions to Seattle, opening our doors with nothing but hope, authentic recipes, and an unshakeable belief in the power of good food to bring people together.
