Mi Tocaya Antojería

“I'm always looking for a good mole, something with lots of layers of flavor and not sweet. Mi Tocaya Antojeria is the place. The Chamorro de Puerco en Mole Negro pork shank is a tender hunk of pork drenched in their black mole. What more can you ask for? Everything we ordered was delicious but the mole is what I personally would come back for.”

“We knew the chef from her TV show and were curious to try her restaurant. We booked a table at the first opportunity! The menu seems simple, but once we made our choices, we understood why she became famous. We lived in San Luis Potosí for a long time, and I felt like I was back there! Everything was incredibly good; we didn't order a single thing that wasn't a 10/10. The octopus was spectacular, and the enchiladas were too. It was a delight! We loved it.”

“I brought my son here for his birthday, so there were 5 of us, my two boys and my daughter in laws. Walking in I was greeted by the manager who was friendly and welcoming. I made the reservation a week in advance and our time was 9:30. Although they closed at 10:00, we didn't feel rushed at all whatsoever and definitely stayed passed 10:00. This was our first time here and it did not disappoint. I saw Chef Dávila on America's Culinary Cup and loved her cooking so decided to check her place out. She was actually there and came to the table to greet us and have a chat. She is so sweet and down to earth, and it was very nice of her to come say hello. I would describe the food as elevated and of course delicious. The restaurant itself has a fun ambiance with Latin music playing and everyone talking and having fun. It is a small place so if you are looking for a quite more subdued ambiance don't come here lol. We absolutely loved the vibe and will definitely be coming back. Oh and our server Saul was great! He was really funny and made my son's birthday special.”

“Such an interesting menu. Each dish has a story and our waiter helped bring each to life with descriptions and history. It's small and bright with a great vibe! Cute outdoor patio. Margaritas were great. Food was awesome! The carnitas bites were delicious, the salsa was spicy, the mole was amazing.”

“We came here after watching hometown Chef Diana Dávila compete on America’s Culinary Cup, realizing we could indeed get a taste of the amazing dishes we saw on tv. We certainly were not disappointed. We started our meal with the aguachile, a dish with beautiful presentation and surprising flavor and texture profile - spicy, nutty, acidic, with layers of bite. The octopus was drenched in a delicious tomato sauce accompanied by dill and was cooked to perfection. Following was the steak burrito, which I was told was the highlight of Mi Tocaya’s menu - indeed, the burrito featured some of the most tender steak I’ve ever witnessed. Ending the meal with a slice of tres leches put us in a blissful state. The service throughout the meal was excellent, the pacing was really nice and the servers were attentive. As for vibes, the decor and music made you feel like you were in the middle of a party which you were very much invited to. We can’t wait to make our return to Mi Tocaya to try the rest of the menu!”
