“Service was quick and helpful The bar was chill, full but easily got a table there was 6 of us so we had to yell over music a bit to communicate which isn't always funWe were mostly there for food which was great Def a saving grace when everything around there closes at 1030ish The birria quesadilla, chefs kissThe torta was a amazing as wellWould come back again after a night in the strip“

“I have been coming here for the past couple years. For the last 3 months I've been enjoying fish taco Tuesday. Always hot and fresh and made to order. The owner chef Ladis takes pride in pleasing his customers and getting to know them on a first name basis. My family enjoys his food so much chef Ladis catered my son's 18th birthday last year and will be doing my daughter's 18th birthday this year. Great local spot with great food and even better customer service. He estado viniendo aquí durante los últimos dos años. Durante los últimos 3 meses he estado disfrutando los martes de tacos de pescado. Siempre caliente y fresco y hecho a pedido. El chef propietario, Ladis, se enorgullece de complacer a sus clientes y de conocerlos por su nombre. Mi familia disfruta tanto de su comida que el chef Ladis atendió el cumpleaños número 18 de mi hijo el año pasado y celebrará el cumpleaños número 18 de mi hija este año. Gran lugar local con excelente comida y un servicio al cliente aún mejor.“

“Super cute cafe with some neon decor and a little shrine to Selena in the corner. Anything for Selenas! Come and gossip while you sip on your cafecito and enjoy desayunos. I had to start my breakfast out with an iced cafe de olla latte. Rad Coffee was tempting me right down the street in downtown Covina but I had to choose this over Rad! The taro-chata and vanilla vice lattes sound good and I need to try those next!Chismosa's chilaquiles are served either red or green and come with beans, salsa, cotija cheese, onion and crema in a generous portion and both tasted really sweet to my tastebuds. I couldn't quite pin down what ingredient made it taste like candy (chimi?), but this isn't a complaint.The West Cochina burrito with pork belly, bacon, eggs, potatoes and salda verde is sizeable but not too big. I'm thinking of the breakfast burrito from Alpha Omega down the street as a burrito that's way too big and needs a full three hands to chomp down. The burrito was not as sweet as the chilaquiles.You check-in to the restaurant on an iPad out front, and my wait was shorter than estimated.Parking: Public street parking, lot parking, or garage parking are ample enough and all in proximity to this cafe.“

“It's not called the Mariposa anymore it's called Maricios . They have excellent food with a wide variety of food. From authentic Mexican to pizza and hamburgers. Something for everyone. Great prices too. Would recommend it with a 5 out of 5 star rating.“

“The food and service were great, with surprisingly reasonable prices. The atmosphere was VERY loud, and it's clear that this is intentional. We more or less knew what we were getting into when we went, but the truth is, this is not the kind of atmosphere we really want out of a restaurant. YMMV, but for us, we'll probably go to quieter places more frequently.“
