So happy we stopped in El Jordan for breakfast/brunch. Ordered bacon omelette, breakfast burrito, and menudo for 2 people - all under $30 total. Big portions (note: the breakfast burrito is more of a snack and priced as such). Great homey atmosphere and friendly service. Feels very home cooked. Ask for spicy red sauce if you can handle some heat. Definitely recommend!

Old school Mexican Restaurant Vibe. Drove by and saw lady that looked like my abuelita as the servers and I knew the place was gonna be good. And it definitely did not disappoint its like nostalgia of old school mexican breakfast with the whole family. Definitely recommend tacos and menudo was good.

It has the feeling of a small town cafe on the square and the food to match. I ordered two eggs over medium which they came out. Exactly that way, two sausage patties, and two pancakes and all was tasty. The eggs already had salt on them so if you don’t like a lot of salt, you might ask them to hold the salt (I don’t salt my eggs - just pepper) My server was probably in my top five ever of being the most friendly. The prices were incredibly reasonable, and I can highly recommend this place for a good basic breakfast. If I come back, I will definitely try a breakfast burrito.

If you’re craving truly authentic, soul-satisfying Mexican food, look no further than this gem. From the moment we walked in, the family spirit showed in every detail; warm greetings, cozy vibes, and that sense of real pride in every dish. The service was excellent: attentive without being overbearing, friendly, and genuinely caring. The coffee is actually outstanding; bold, smooth, just right. And the food… amazing. Every bite tasted pure, honest, and full of heart. This is one of those hidden treasures that reminds you what real food is all about. Highly, highly recommended. I’ll absolutely be back.

Great place to have breakfast. One of the gems of Bishop Art district. I love this family run Mexican place. Everyone is very nice.
