What our guests are saying

Food was amazing! The cinnamon coffee left me wanting more!! Very authentic and the atmosphere is family friendly. I had to ask if it was family run. It is not but that manager was on point with helping out when needed. The staff always had a smile and made you feel welcomed. 12/10!!

This place is AWESOME!!! The cafe de olla (cinnamon coffee) is to die for and the birria tacos and fries are out of this world. I'm torn writting this review, because on one hand they deserve to have the world know how amazing the food is. On the other hand, I don't want everyone to know about my secret spot lol. You will not make a mistake coming here, the food is better than every Mexican restaurant in town and the servers are the nicest!

Outstanding food! Efficient, friendly service. Plenty of gluten free options. This is a great place for breakfast or brunch. Portions are the right size. Not too big so you come away over stuffed, but enough so you don't leave hungry. The fries were cooked perfectly. They appear to be seasoned, but I couldn't taste any seasoning (a plus for me). Pretty busy place, but they have a lot of seating.
