Enjoy authentic Mexican favorites featuring daily handmade corn tortillas, rich house-made salsas, and signature dishes like our sizzling Molcajete and rich Rajas Poblanas.

Guests come back for the mole enchiladas, the birria quesadilla, and the complimentary chips — and for our staff, who make you feel like a regular from the first visit.

My family and I love ANCESTROS! We went for an early breakfast. My mom, who's from Mexico, ordered a "Cafe de Olla" says it tastes fantastic and authentic. Want a coffee? Try it, you won't regret it.Their Horchata drink was great too! For food, we got the Menudo, Chilaquiles, and Huevos Divorciados. All made fresh to order (worth the wait) and their tortillas are just *chef's kiss*.

Everything (we mean EVERYTHING) was delicious! Very FRESH, and homemade tortillas! We loved the inviting hospitality as we walked in accompanied by great service with Alazae. We are not from the area, but we will take the trip to be back for sure!

It's the most authentic Mexican food restaurant I have ever been to in LB I love their margaritas and food. The server is always so kind.
