“ Loved finding this gem of a place! Planning another visit as I sit and eat. Great staff, authentic food and celebrated cultural influences. Best chicken tortilla soup I’ve ever had! The shake did not disappoint, Mexican cinnamon coffee shake with vanilla ice cream. Good portions as well ”
“ Eat here! The food was killer, it was really clean, and the owners were friendly! We had iced lattes, chilaquiles verdes, and the Texas brunch- would recommend all. Wasn’t super busy when we went so the atmosphere was very relaxed ”
“ Great little Cafe! It was a Saturday morning at 10:45 and busy the entire time. But, there was always seating available because of the staff's efficiency. They had a nice variety of things on the menu, plus a good amount of pastries to choose from. The chicken fajita sandwich and Cuban were both very tasty! Plenty of good coffee options as well! ”
“ The Tres Leches Pancakes are the best thing in the world! The donuts are also really really good. The coffee we got was a Horchada Iced Latte and the Mexican Chocolate one (can't remember the exact name). The Horchada just tasted like regular iced coffee and the Mexican Chocolate tasted like really really dark chocolate so neither were thatttt great but still passable. Their food is fantastic tho! ”
“ The place is extremely clean,well put together. The food portions are very generous, staff was pleasant and attentive. Overall totally will be back again. It's a must try! ”
“ SO glad I stopped in here! Cozy and clean, somewhat retro atmosphere, tasty food (I got the Chile Verde and a Horchata shake), good portions for a fair price, friendly people. Definitely a pleasant surprise when I needed a quick bite. ”
