Snor Ynez

Sor Ynéz is, at heart and soul, a Mexican restaurant and scratch kitchen. Our cuisine is rooted in traditional Mexican ingredients and methods, but our focus is on a modern and sustainable future. We grind our masa fresh to make tortillas, tamales, and tlacoyos, and also offer it for sale so that you can experience the taste of Mexico in your kitchen. The restaurant was named after Sor Juana Ynez de la Cruz who was a 17th century scholar, poet, composer, nun, and feminist, living in “New Spain” (aka Mexico). She taught herself Greek, Roman, and Nahuatl, the language of the Aztec. She used her keen intellect to question misogyny, hypocrisy, and colonialism. She remains a beloved figure in Mexico.
 
Sor Ynez is open for lunch Tuesday through Saturday from 12 Pm to 3 PM and dinner from 4 PM to 9 PM. Happy Hour is offered Tuesday through Friday from 4 PM to 7 PM. Brunch is served Saturdays from 11 AM to 3 PM
