It's the little restaurant that grew and grew; it opened more than 30 years ago and now sprawls every which way.

In Short – Breakfast here is a Montrose tradition, and a great bakery keeps the cross-cultural clientele happy at this Mexican favorite. Try the robust huevos rancheros or the migas. The taco de guisado de puerco, a handmade flour tortilla with cubes of pork in red sauce, is fork-tender. Even better: Poached chicken breast meat (in tacos or fresh chicken soup). Spike anything with the vibrant tomatillo sauce.
Delicious food!

The service is average, and the food is very good! I always order the fidello and it is a very good portion, and it is very tasty! They have a nice outside area as well. The breakfast is very good as well.
- Pros: VERY good food
- Cons: Parking!!!
Very rude and arrogant owners.

This place is sooo bad. I know good food and good service. I also, unfortunately, know bad. The cashier is very rude, and they seem to rest upon their reputation. I think the grand-daughter of the place is the one who told me I was lucky to enjoy their cousine. I will never be back. Never.

Very clean, festive, attentive service, large portions of great Mexican food at a very good price. I have seen this place frequented by working class Mexican families to nostalgic Mexican millionaires. Everything from chicharonnes to chile relleno. Really good food and nice folks.
- Pros: Great food!
- Cons: Parking --- everyone knows its good!
