We were out of eggs so I decided to be lazy and have breakfast delivered. Had the meat lover's burrito and, holy cow! Didn't expect it to be that big. Couldn't finish, but it was so good! Will definitely order from this place again.

Cheap and delicious. A hidden gem of a breakfast spot.

An adorable little family-owned diner. A dinosaur of its time. The Mexican Skillet is my favorite.

No no no, never again. Terrible AND slowly services and weird atmosphere. My husband had to stand up for get the silverware. One server was wering tall sandals and hit my table hard because she couldn't walk. More that 40 mins for get a breaskfast quesadilla and huevos rancheros . No napking. Sorry but NO. Don't waiste your time!

The staff are always happy and attentive to each tables needs. I personally like that they have scrapple, but everything is great. You could also order Mexican food for breakfast or lunch which is very good. On top of it all the owner is a super nice guy.Parking: Many free spots out front.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible from 2 sides

We had their dinner service. The service was excellent and so was the food. Best refried beans.This is a little hole in the wall with a cool quiche vibe. I don't know if you would like it if you are into big box restaurants. If you like new adventures give it a shot! ??Update: Went back with friend for breakfast and they loved it too.Parking: Parking out side the door of the restaurant in their parking lot.

I have been eating here for years, and I LOVE El Tenampa! If you like authentic, reasonable, delicious, unassuming, and made by nice folks, give it a whirl. I'm headed back today.
