Favorite new brunch place! Their pollo verde chilaquiles and cauliflower chorizo burrito are amazing! We came to check out the lattes and vegan options and we were not only not disappointed, we were very pleased with everything. The restaurant indoor and outdoor areas are clean and inviting for a leisurely meal or for a cafecito with a friend. Lastly, the service was great. People were friendly and we will definitely return.

Finally found a great place to eat! My hubby and I just enjoyed a very yummy breakfast. I had the Chismosa chilaquiles, very tasty; but was disappointed they only offer with scrambled eggs. I think over easy eggs would totally elevate but that's just me. Hubby had the West Chismosa burrito. He liked it but wasn't happy about the price and disappointed with the green salsa too after reading the reviews recommending. I also loved the cafe de La olla, I was pleasantly surprised that it came as a latte, excellent! Great music, nice atmosphere, love the tributes to Selena decor. I definitely recommend and will be returning.

LoveLy place. Excellent coffee and creative dishes. We like to go here on dates after dropping the kids at school.

Everything was pretty cool. Not too overly crowded. It had a prefect flow especially for a Saturday. The inside is pretty. The food is decent with good flavor. Portions are pretty good.

Checked out this spot a few weeks ago with my husband and son. We ordered the West Cochina Burrito and Tres leches waffle, along with 2 regular coffees. Both items were very good and the coffee was decent. The first lady that helped us seemed annoyed by our son crying and her overall attitude wasn't great, but the ladies that brought us our breakfast (we sat outside) were very nice, so I guess that makes up for their co-worker's attitude. Pretty good place for brunch, will come back and try other items.

Great food and coffee! Service was good and the ambiance was perfect, who doesn't love a little chismosa with their food?

Was there last night for a Michelada & dj event & it was so fun. Enjoyed the people, the vibe, & the food. Will definitely be back.

First off the prices are crazy. 50$ and you get a waffle with 2 pieces of bacon & an order of nasty unauthentic red chilaquiles. If you are latino & have actually had authentic chilaquiles you could taste when they aren't. Food is served on paper plates. The # for our order was literally written on a piece of paper. The white lady that took our order was rude & everyone except maybe 1 sweet worker looked like they didn't want to be there. The price payed for our food definitely waa not worth it. Won't be back. I do not recommend this, especially if you want good food.

The chilaquiles and drinks are delicious. We encountered a bit of a rude food runner when our food came as she barked at me to "turn the number around." I didn't realize their little written cards have another number on the side. Other than that the ambiance and cashiers were all nice and the quality was good. It was worth the drive!

Not impressed, I actually expected better. Food was not the best. Avocado toast, toast was old bread. Coffee is ok, service is non-existent. Too bad. Hopefully they can revamped it and maybe then I'll think about coming back.

There's no way they call this avocado toast. It's a salad without croutons. They probably use half an avocado if even that. Not worth it at all.

Ordered the green Chilaquiles and I got red, even though the young girl tried to tell me that it was green. We did about 45 minutes for my food when other people were getting their food that came in after me. Was not worth the wait and would not come back again. It would've been nice if they had offered a free drink or a refill on my drink for taking so long waiting for the food to come out but no.

Came here after a long time of wanting to visit after a few videos I saw on this cute cafe. To my surprise one of the employees here when I ordered threw at me the fork as I ate which honestly annoyed me. I ordered a barbacoa with huevos in which did not have eggs, guac, cheese, sour cream, absolutely nothing. On top of the disgusting attitude of this lady, which ruined the food even more for me. Secondly, the employees there admitted that yes it was there and that we were clearly not seeing it. After speaking to another employee she agreed to refund my payment of two meals. Honestly, terrible customer service and staff and FOOD. I couldn’t even eat half of it because of how disgusted and how I was just over the fact of the lack of professionalism. Don’t eat here.

This was my third time here and things were way different. I had to search for a seat vs I’ve been seated in the past. Food took forever only to be served on paper plates. Portion was smaller than my previous experience too. I don’t think I’ll come back anymore. I had to ask twice for sour cream and they asked for tip before I was actually served and I regret tipping as service was like non existent.

My friend and I had breakfast last week. The best part was the cafe de olla, we asked for half of olla to lessen the level of sweetness and it was perfect. We split the avocado toast, which was okay as the smashed avocado had a lot of lime juice and greens and tomato on top. I had the churro waffle, scrambled eggs and bacon plate. The waffle had a scoop of cinnamon butter which was very good. The egg was overcooked. My friend had the chilaquiles with brisket. The meat was okay, but the chilaquiles had a ton of sauce to the point the tortillas were soggy. Our bill for our meal was over 60.00, very pricy for mediocre food. The service was friendly, but no one ever checked in on us during our meal.
