" Great experience overall! The portions were generous, especially the chilaquiles! I enjoyed the café de olla too. The server was friendly, but there were times when we had to wait a bit longer for our drinks. The place was busy, which speaks to how popular it is. Definitely a spot to check out when you’re in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Although I had a generally nice experience, my main issue was with the lack of spice in the chilaquiles. Tasty, yes, but I was looking for heat! The atmosphere was bright, and service was prompt. They made me feel welcomed, which I appreciate. I’d come back to try something else! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family loved this place! The portions were sizeable, enough to fill us all. The food tasted fresh and authentic — the chilaquiles were definitely a highlight. Service was prompt and friendly too; the atmosphere felt lively! We’ll be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been here multiple times and the food has always been consistently good. I particularly love their pozole; it feels authentically flavorful! The only complaint could be about portion sizes — I find myself wanting just a bit more sometimes. Overall, still a favorite spot for satisfying my cravings for Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a wonderful breakfast here, but the highlight was definitely the dirty horchata! It was so refreshing! The chilaquiles were also delightful, just the right amount of spice. The atmosphere is charming and casual; a great place to relax and enjoy good food. I'll be coming back again for sure! " (*Curated Review*)
