What People Are Saying
from Google"My family and I come here way too often. We love it and have our go to items we go to. Chilaquiles with carnitas and a sunny side up egg, tacos de cecina (serranos are hot), pozole/menudo (my wife’s go to). Favorite brunch/breakfast spot in Orange County! The staff has always been friendly and checks in if we need anything. We have two kids so they accommodated high chairs when we’ve needed it. When you arrive just know that you’ll be told where to sit so you can’t save seats."
"The flavors in the chorizo and asada burrito were delicious! Atmosphere was quaint and relaxing, service was great. All interactions were very pleasant. I would definitely dine here again."
"Green chilaquiles were solid and tasty, the carne asada i could tell was not fresh, but maybe made 30 minutes to an hour before and then reheated, however it was still tasty. My only issue was the prices. 18.25 for basic chilaquiles, came with ONE egg, typical would be 2 eggs. Extra charge for sour cream, avocado, and of course the protein said it included cheese, which was a very small amount. All together it was maybe 26 bucks or so. Definitely not worth the price. Also, cafe de olla was 6 bucks (no refills) which I though was odd because a cafe de olla is a authentic and typical choice of drink in the Mexican culture, but it was considered a specialty, why? I can’t imagen it costin much more to make, because regular coffee was refillable. Water was not complimentary 1 dollar for a bottle. Including tip I think we spent about 75 dollars on chilaquiles and drinks. For a casual sit down place where one orders the counter is a little hefty, (but I guess that’s California for ya lol)."
"This is a very nice cafe, whether you’re sitting outside or inside, both provide equally great aesthetics. For the food, I wish the salsa provided with the burritos was spicy, even just a little. I understand restaurants can’t make their salsa actually spicy for specific people but if salsa is provided I would appreciate it to have some spice. On the other hand the pozole was super tasty! The chips provided were the perfect side and had really good flavor."
"I got the green chilequilles and a diet coke. Carne Asada was super salty and I was not a fan of the green sauce either. My Dad liked the chorizo and coffee. Service was good. I really liked the ambiance of the outdoor seating. Nice area."
