I love that the Blvd market is so close to my house but I always forget to go there sometimes. I also noticed that Pez Cantina, which I havent been to yet, had posted a picture of posole verde and I honestly thought it was just tacos and burritos there so I decided to bring my Uncle to come and try for the first time. The posole verde was perfectly seasoned, I'm not a fan of really spicy posole broth so this was great. I also ordered the cauliflower tacos, I'm not vegan or anything but I do like trying those vegetable instead of meat dishes. And my Uncle got the shrimp tacos. The sauces on top looked very interesting because of their different colors and such, but after trying everything I w...
When I heard about Posole Verde I was skeptical. I was wrong to doubt. The Pozole Verde is a spicy green love letter to Mexican food. It delights you, challenges you, comforts you, and leaves you satisfied like a child who is hugging his grandma. It's am wonderfully tasty dance between green chili, hominy, and chicken. It's your new favorite soup dish, you just don't know it yet. Oh! I almost forgot the tortilla chips (Normally chips don't get their own paragraph, but Pez Cantina isn't the norm. The tortilla chips here are perfectly made in house, on the spot, the taste and freshness is undeniable. The salt limon spices they flavor it make these chips stand out. They compliment the Posole Ve...
One of the few restaurant options at BLVD MKT- an outdoor food hall in Montebello. The food here is consistently satisfying, and the tastiest when compared to other spots here. I'm a fan of their pescador burrito that has shrimp, rice, black beans, cabbage, and chipotle aioli. The agua frescas are refreshing and a perfect pairing for the food. The customer service has been disappointing every visit. The staff working the register and taking orders seems disinterested. Be sure to ask staff to repeat your order back so you don't end up with wrong items (this has happened multiple times- probably because staff seems uninterested). Pro tip: Sub out black beans with chorizo refried beans for a ta...
We were excited to visit BLVD Market and decided to try Pez Cantina. We ordered fish tacos, shrimp tacos, and a ceviche tostada. The presentation of the food was impressive, but unfortunately, the fish tacos and ceviche were lacking in flavor. While the fish tacos were perfectly fried and the tortillas were handmade, they didn't have any taste, even when paired with the salsa. On the other hand, the shrimp tacos were overly seasoned, almost as if they had been rolled in pepper. The ceviche had very little fish and was completely devoid of salt. However, the food was served quickly and was fresh. We really enjoyed the patio atmosphere, which offered plenty of seating and shade.

There are some great options available. We visited during a special event, but unfortunately, the staff didn't apply the 20% discount. The food was quite tasty. I appreciated the open tables and the presence of other vendors, so there was plenty to choose from. The atmosphere is casual, making it a perfect spot for groups.
Pez Cantina is a true hidden gem nestled in the outdoor patio at Montebello's BLVD MRKT! I highly recommend the Ahi tuna tostada, the Campechana cocktails, and their two incredible desserts: the Neapolitan churro and mangonada. If it’s a little chilly, don’t miss out on their comforting pozole!
I tried this place for the first time and I was very impressed with how flavorful the pozole and chilaquiles were! I came here on a Sunday and the ambiance was fun and relaxing. I will definitely be back to try the other things on the menu.
We just ordered 2 agua fresca's since we didn't want soda. 1 agua de Jamaica which was watered down and not sweet at all. 1 agua de fresa, sour and watered down as well. I've never had there food and not sure if I will.

I love the agua frescas at Pez Cantina, but it’s frustrating that they’re often closed when I try to go. I hope they consider extending their hours!
These are some of the finest fish tacos I have ever enjoyed!
