      Wonderful food and friendly staff. Sat in the patio area mid restaurant and loved the atmosphere. We could easily carry on conversations and hear each other.
      Their special cinnamon coffee was awesome

      We arrived first thing upon opening and we were greeted and immediately seated. The owner of the business was very friendly and offered a cinnamon spice coffee or regular. I opted to try the cinnamon and it was the BEST coffee I have ever had!

      My husband ordered the huevos rancheros and I had the machaca scramble with fresh corn tortillas. It was the best breakfast I have had in a long time.

      I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for fresh & delicious home style food with excellent service. The ambiance is very casual and cozy.

      I have to say that I was really hopeful when I read the prior reviews. Unfortunately this place did not live up to any of them.
      I walked in and immediately noticed the place was freezing cold, well if you leave the front door open and it's 50 degrees, that can happen.
      The place is pretty bare, some tables against the walls and a back area which looks like an enclosed patio. I was greeted by a pleasant waiter and told to sit anywhere. Took a table next to a small heater.
      The menu for breakfast had most of the staples you would expect.
      I had the Machaca Scramble which condensed of a few pieces of tasteless pork, scrambled eggs, some bits of cheese and that was it. I hunted for the fresh jalapeño and red onion but no luck. The hashbrowns were brown on the outside and cold on the inside.
      On the plus side, the tortillas were really good and so was the salsa.
      Maybe they were having an off day, it happens.

      This place was amazing! I brought my mom here to kick off our mother daughter vacay and was blown away! All of our plates were delicious. Service was incredible and this place looks small on the outside but they have so much seating and the cutest patio for brunch! In love and will definitely be back many times!

      The owner is also such a nice person. He's so welcoming and you can tell they put so much love into this place!

      Fantastic first time to this family owned spot. Sat on patio while the music played inside on a great Sunday Morning. The service was just as great as the homemade food. Extraordinary. We will go again our first time there coming from up north

      Cute little restaurant just a short distance from the beach, nearly in Capitola. I love the outdoor seating with umbrellas and nice service. The food was so good. I know it's a Mexican restaurant, but I opted for a steak and egg breakfast and was not disappointed! The steak was tender and flavorful, cooked perfectly medium rare. The hashbrowns were crispy and plentiful. It also came with two eggs and a side of toast. My son opted for one big pancake and an omelette, which he said was really tasty. The pancake was nice and fluffy! Yum!

      One big pancake

      A hole-in-the-wall but tasty food for me. Have my usual rock fish taco, mango mimosa and it's tasty. Jennifer our server is nice and bring some water for our fur baby. If u are not picky about the ambience then this place might be ur choice! Hubby's Carne asada is average and we might try the quesadillas next time!

      The warm welcoming service, the chef checking on our satisfaction of the fresh ingredients, well prepared Mexican brunch is more than one should expect from a restaurant. Outstanding in every aspect. So glad I live walking distance! Excellent food!

      Wowowow amazing food! I loved the Birria and Consume ...honestly wanted to lick the plate.

      I did not like the refried beans...lacked flavor but everything else was BURSTING with flavor!

      My kid is gluten free and dairy free (allergies) so she ordered a side of steak, sausage and hashbrowns. The steak was amazing - not an ounce of fat - tender and flavorful!

      Wish they had GF bread but we will come back!
