Karne As-nada Torta RULES! - Edit
The room is very comfortable, roomy, decorated. Living room, dining room, kitchen, it's all there. Food wise, the Karne As-nada Torta sandwich surprised the heck out of me, how much flavor they are able to get out of just a few ingredients.

Been here now a dozen times and I can't get enough of the asnada. It is phenomenal. This product is gonna go wide.

Awesome Experience - Edit
I have been eyeing this restaurant for sometime now so I decided to stop by recently and had a great experience. The restaurant environment is cozy and welcoming, The staff were very friendly and help me even try some samples out. I ended up going with the Karne Asada tacos 🌮 and they did not disappoint! Will be back to try out the açaí bowls and smoothies next time

Small menu, but big flavors! - Edit
Ordered carne asnada torta combo which included an aguas fresca and chips. Torta was super flavorful and the bread was incredible. The agua fresca was very refreshing. I ordered the Maracuya which is passion fruit and agave. Small, but cool space with a mid-block parking lot. Seeking to be getting more popular so no longer locals-only (overheard a conversation with locals 😄).
Read morePros: Flavorful food and drink, Cool space
Cons: Small menu

Amazing Smoothies, Amazing Bowls, Amazing Place! - Edit
Malinalli's is a special place; you get a sense of the culture and personality just by walking in and greeting the owner. The smoothies and bowls all taste clean, complex, and delicious, with high-quality ingredients! Although the business just started, the owner has made frequent efforts to support the community through bi-weekly open mic events & monthly vegan pop-ups. If you're in the mood for delicious, healthy & hunger-curbing food & drinks, while also supporting the community, Malinalli's is by far the best place I've been to!
Read moreHighly recommended for any local vegans in the Whitter area!
P.S: If you order the Horchata, request a 1/4 cup of almond milk, tastes amazing.
