Slow Food Menu


This menu features fresh, hand made corn tortillas which we make fresh to order on our comal. It also features items which require more time for preparation. Please allow time for the preparation of any of the items on this menu.


We are able to package any of our meals for take-away (except for the San Juan Platter, which is a sizzle platter, so it would be missing the point!). Please be aware that if you take them “to go” the tortillas on the tacos will lose their original supple, dry consistency.


We do not use any pre-prepared sauces or mixes. All of our food is made from scratch. Consequently, our food is absolutely msg free, and artificial additive/preservative free. Anything on this menu (but not the express menu) is also totally gluten free. Our black beans are made with canola oil, not lard, so our vegetarian options are truly vegetarian!


We have worked hard to give you the most impeccably-sourced food possible. Our pork is grain, fed and non-medicated (that’s as opposed to pork that is fed meat by-products and given copious amounts of growth hormones and antibiotics in their feed). And our beef is locally raised just outside of Duncan on grassland—they live good lives under the trees. They are healthy, feeding on spent hops from local breweries, fresh water, a salt lick and a selenium supplement, that’s it—no antibiotics, no feedlots.


We are focused on the need for cleanliness and purity of our sourcing and preparation and we are committed to serving you healthful, nutritious food.


We have a family, so we understand how hard it is to find good, healthy food which is also good value (…taken a family of five out to eat lately?). We are striving to provide the best quality of food possible at reasonable prices. Please help us to do this by not requesting any changes or substitutions from this menu.


A final note…some of our recipes call for peanuts—and a variety of proteins and other potential allergens. if you have serious or life threatening allergies, please choose not to eat here. Our kitchen is just too small, and too busy! it’s possible to make mistakes and we could never live with ourselves if we did harm to someone. please do not take the risk. our food is delicious, but still, it’s just not worth it.
