    Very small inside, be prepared to wait. My son got a bean and cheese taco and it was quite large. I tried one of the lunch plates, I believe it was called the Tex-Mex. 2 cheese enchiladas, carne guisada, beans and rice. The guisada was so very tender, definitely a good choice. It did look like they do to go orders as well. This is a no frills kind of place, but good friendly servers and good food.

    Bean and cheese taco are always good amazing

    The food was amazing on point never disappointed me with the food homemade Mexican food

    Cheese Enchiladas, Carne Guisada Puffy Tacos and a Carne Guisada w Enchilada plate.

    Delicious every single time we go... Food is always hot, never subpar and they are always welcoming and accommodating to any reasonable need. From the soups (like caldo and menudo), the botanas (nachoooss!) to the hearty tacos and plates...you're going to love every single item on their menu. The puffy tacos aren't greasy, they're light and fluffy while being perfectly filling. The carne guisada gravy cheese enchilada plate is to die for w their American cheese filling(or any one of your choice for that matter) and fluffy rice and bacon cannot be topped. The carne guisada puffy tacos and enchiladas tacos are the true stars though!! Try them out EXPEDITIOUSLY!!

    Cafe san luis, fluffy beautiful tacos, ordered carne guisada, worth every penny! Check this place out for yourself!

    Still one of my favorite breakfast spots. Their tacos are on point. Tortillas homemade and fresh each time. This place is is a lil hidden on evers and wurzbach. Small inside well about 10-15 tables. I cant wait to be able to come here on a morning and sit down and eat. Thanks y'all!!

    Food is great & reasonably priced. The only drawback is that this place is so popular that sometimes there is a lengthy wait.

I FINALLY made the trip in and it was a mixed bag. The interior of this place is super sleek and has two registers: one for coffee, the other for CBD products. The baristas were chill, there's ample room for study groups, and with the quiet atmosphere I think it'd be a great place to focus and get work done. I ordered the Honey Lavender Matcha with Almond Milk, and I can't say I was all that impressed. The matcha was muddied by the other flavors, but even those flavors were indiscernible. I ended up taking off the lid to inspect the drink and sure enough, you could tell by the color of the drink as well that there wasn't enough matcha. There was barely any Lavender flavor, and there was only a hint of Honey at best. Truly it tasted like warm almond milk with a subtle hint of a weird mix of muddled flavors. At least the sweetness of the Honey cut any potential bitterness and it wasn't too grassy? Even if this drink wasn't a hit, this place is too cool for me to just write off. I'd like to return to see about another menu item and hopefully stay for a while longer next time. For now, I'll give Archie's 3 Stars for the drink and 5 Stars for service and establishment.

    Thank you Jando CM for the incredible Yelp recommendation …read more My fave place this year! It was also rated top 10 bakery Cafe according to USA today . Came on a Saturday at 2pm for some tortas . I can see why it has such good reviews.Service was so friendly and helpful. No lie .That was the best lentil soup I have ever had and I don't even like lentils.It was served perfectly hot with small bits of onion and carrots with a delicious not overly salted broth. I would drive another 3 hours just for that soup! The grilled chicken torta was sooo good . It had smashed avocado lime mash with greens and Swiss cheese. Minus the mayo for me and I could not stop eating it. The Mexican sourdough was so good that we went back and ordered 4 rolls to take home to Htown with us. Lightly toasted on outside with a soft center. Perfection! Cappuccino came out steaming hot with cute decorated heart motif. Good balance of milk and expresso. Easy to get to location with plenty of parking.Line moved fast and food came out quickly. Will absolutely return when back in town.

    Hands down, the best French toast ever made, and service from the staff was great!…read more Everything here, the mellow ambiance, extensive selection of fresh bakery items, and the wide variety of entrees and coffees is simply exceptional.

    Review Update: The best Summer Moon visit I've had…read more Coffee shop and specialty shop barista here! I've been to a couple of Summer Moon locations and have never really been a fan. My last experience with this one on the other hand was very pleasant. The baristas were super friendly and swift with our order, the cafe itself was clean despite a decent sized crowd, and our order was pretty satisfying. We ordered a Matcha Moon Latte with Lavender, another Matcha Moon Latte with Hazelnut, a Banana Chocolate Chip Muffin, and a Mixed Berry Poptart. Our Matcha Moons were both pretty good; while the lavender was rather subtle and melded well with the moon milk, the hazelnut was in fact a little heavy in flavor. The Poptart was very sweet and yummy, though I admittedly didn't eat all of the crust, and the Muffin was an equal blend of chocolate and banana, rich and moist, and was absolutely delicious overall. If I'm ever in the mood for Summer Moon I will most definitely go out of my way to visit this location. This trip definitely changed my view of Summer Moon in its favor!

But I'll continue to come to this location
