I absolutely love this place!!! Been coming here for around 10 years now. My husband, Jason, has been coming since high school. (We’re 46 lol) The breakfast tacos are incredible and huge. Jason says they have the best enchiladas and I think they have the best gorditas in town. Sonia and her staff are outstanding and always have a friendly smile.

I'm tippin' my fishin' cap to this awesome little secret Tex-Mex restaurant. We've been enjoying this small little hospitable place for over 30 years now. Stop in, have 1 or 2 of their awesome breakfast tacos, or enjoy their homemade beef enchiladas plates around lunchtime. Whatever you decide to order, you just can't go wrong. Say high to Sonia and her friendly staff. Be ready to be greeted with smiles.

I have been a customer of this establishment for a little over two decades Sonia and her staff and a new ownership and the new culture of service deserves 10 stars unfortunately, I could only give them five their enchiladas breakfast and I’m sad they’re not open for dinner because I would be here for that too Is an experience of a family operating a business and a culture of love and service that second to none thank you Sonia and crew for the friendship and the amazing amazing food.

Absolutely loved this place! Very homey feel, with very homey food. The staff were wonderful and the owner is one of those people that has known her customers for years. Oh—and the enchiladas... been thinking about them ever since. Can’t wait to be back in San Antonio for some more!

Cute little cafe. The food took me back to my childhood. It was like going to your grandmas house. The staff was attentive. The customers were all happy & enjoying their meals. What really impressed me was that the owner went table to table asking how the food was and spoke to each customer. Highly recommend!
