   So disappointed! We have been here several times and had an awesome experience with food that make you say "how did they do this???" We had 3 entrees this visit and the best one was the sheep milk dressing on the chicory salad and they were pretty stingy with the amount. The two large entrees were barely edible. One was a very crispy hard taquito with mushroom and potato filling that had no flavor and a few spoonfuls of crab on top. The combo was disconnected. The other entree was meatballs on polenta with a very spicy "mole like" sauce. It overpowered the mild polenta and the meatballs were bland. This is not the review I would expect to write for any restaurant in this group but my husband and I were extremely surprised at the decrease in quality. Our server mentioned that the chef had left at half shift to "spend time with his family" on a Saturday night. I doubt this impacted the experience but it is worth noting. I'm not sure whether we will give them another try but I hope this isn't going to be others experience.

   The food was wonderful, but extremely expensive! The portions are also very small.

   Delicious, hyper local, seasonal food. I love and at the same time dislike that their menu is constantly changing because it means likely never having the same dish twice. Service is fabulous, highly recommend the chef’s counter experience.

   This restaurant serves food unlike any other. A modernist thoughtful take on restated Mexican flavors and textures. Well informed staff make careful recommendations on both food and wine pairing choices. Excellent value. This was our third experience and each time the menu has been different and reflected the best of seasonally available ingredients and flavors. Will happily be returning.

   We dined on the entire menu and very much enjoyed the experience. Very unique combinations of flavors and textures ranging from oysters seasoned with a phenomenal citrus to cured ahi that was a favorite at the table to pork in a spicy sauce. Fun vibe, friendly wait staff, unusual cocktails - highly recommend!

    I love a place where you will find unique pairings! This dinner was truly one of a kind and an amazing experience . Often times people exaggerate and I find myself disappointed when I am finally able to make it there. Lilia Comedor lives up to the hype and did NOT disappoint. I will be back
