I blame the heat for the frustration (of course only if it's within reason) The Lechero was decent. It was good but I wouldn't say it was the best coffee i've tried. However, I definitely do recommend trying it. Their menu is pretty good, Veracruz cuisine is always so good regardless.

My guidebook described this place as more ostentatious than it is, especially in how folks order…read morethe lechero cafe. Some locals tapped their cups, and a waiter would fill their cups with separate pours of coffee and hot milk. But they poured out of small pots, which must be more efficient at keeping the drinks hot. Perhaps since I was obviously foreign, it didn't work for me. As soon as I tapped my cup, my waiter quickly just brought me a fresh cup. Fine with me, as I was more interested in observing the classy old establishment which feels like being in a black and white film with old photos on the walls.

In spite of the grand size of the restaurant there was a line halfway arpund the block.. we waited about twenty minutes to get a table inside for thw two of us. They had a full band and so many sercers scurrying around to serve everybody. I ordered the en enchiladas roja and a side of fruitas. They both were very filling and exquite. My friend ordered empañadas xon queso which was an even larger platter. We both got two chocolates de la francesa and thwy were vwry hot. I would absolutely gove this place fove stars for the food and service. It's vwry popular here in Veraxruz.

We drove by at noon and the place was packed, so we returned two hpurs later and it was still busy…read more Bybthe time we were seated it was close to 3pm, and we were starving. We all ordered different things from the menu, and all of us shared a hige platter of carne pastor. It was enough pastor for six people and we made our own tacos with the tortillas. In fact, I think it was more than 1 kilo. Another friend ordered camarones with coconut and it was remarkable! It made me want to order the same even though I am not a hige fan of seafood. The ambiance was nice and everyone looked to be very busy. This restaurant came highly recommended and i would give it high marks as well.

The main portions revolve around different varieties of meat, fish, and empanadas, all of which I tried, and all of which are amazing. You can order anything here, and it will be great.

Had the Argentina empanada and the Cheese & Spinach empanada. The cheese n' spinach was awesome. My son had the cheese pizza. Not something you'd probably rush to Mexico to order. But for a kids dinner option, it was pretty good. My wife ordered the seafood sampler. This was fresh shrimp fried; some wrapped in bacon (which was excellent). And also fried calamari. She loved her dish. I had the tampiquena steak which came with fried bananas, and empanada in mole sauce. My dish was really good as well.
