Al pastor chilequiles
Kat S.

This restaurant delivers. I really love coming here. Ive tryed multiple menu items over our visits here. Everything is just so good. Every server, or anyone weve talked to that works here. They're friendly and efficient. If you have never tryed it. You definitely should. I really just came to add new pics but I couldn't help myself. I can't say enough about The Chila Killer Cafe.

It's really the killer!!! Their Chilaquiles and biscuit gravy were delish!! Beware of the red salsa though, it was sooo spicy‍ don't you worry, you can choose other kinds of salsa. I also ordered Cafe Olla and it was amazing. Our waitress was super nice.

Such a cozy spot, great service, and delicious food. As a barista, I can say their coffee is spot on--a 10/10 place!

We had the Chilaquiles and Angus Burger on Brioche Bun and both were extraordinary! They were cooked to perfection, very fresh, and had wonderful flavor! Our server, Gil was so warm, kind, efficient, and personable! He went the extra mile to take pictures of us! We truly appreciated him.

This place is pretty good. A hidden gem if you will. The yelp reviews speak for themselves. I've been here 3 times before. I've gotten the chillakiles, churro French toast and the breakfast salad. The menu and drinks are great everything looks amazing. Went again today and got the chilakiles. They were good but I will warn the chips get soggy. And the egg on mine today was not cooked at all , the white part was still slimy . The chicken wasn't as good as before when I got it the last time. The previous times I've been here I've been super happy. Today not as much but it was still good and I'll still give them a try another time. Maybe it was an off day. Also the server came by nonstop until we got our food. Then we never saw him again and had to wait forever to get a check. I'm also a bit bummed because the breakfast salad I got last time was one of the best things I've ever eaten. So so good and unique And they took it off the menu For some reason. It's always insanely full and busy in there so be prepared to wait if you go! Also they ask you only stay for 90mins, no longer cause they need the tables. The prices are definitely high but it's good food and the portions are huge. I'd definitely come back To try more off the menu. The lunch looks great as well.

Second time was a charm! Got the chilaquiles with verde, and it was scrumptious! My mate got fish tacos and was blown away! Mexican hot chocolate was heavenly! We watched as the kind hostess placed a lady, her blind companion and his seeing eye dog in a perfect spot so all three were comfortable. The staff makes this place the best!

Food is amazing, I have visited this place on multiple occasions and have been delighted every time. The chilaquiles are a must "green salsa" those are my favorite For coffee you should try the Cafe de hoya... their other coffees are also really good but the Cafe de Hoya is another world. Service is excellent and I love that they always are so cheerful Ambiance is casual but dressy I give this place a 5 star rating on all counts.

SEP2025 Cute spot. I was surprised as we hadn't ventured here yet though we're always in this area. We decided to stop in for brunch. Service checked in frequently and refilled water also. They answered any questions we had. It was also quite busy so it was nice how much they stopped by. My partner ordered the fish sandwich, and I got a latte and the chilaquiles with chicken added. Everything was cooked really well. Partner liked how fresh the fish tasted and the light crunch. The chilaquiles was simple and rich. The chicken flavorful and not dry in the least. The red sauce really pulled everything together. The tortilla underneath soaked up a lot and made for a great medium. I think the only thing I'd want is a bit more crunch somewhere. We'll definitely have to stop by again. This was a nice discovery for the brunch scene in the area.

I'll start with all the positives of my experience with Chila killer: Pros: Great service and really friendly and attentive. Busy but moves fast. Food portions are hearty and tasty. Coffee is strong but really tasty! An extra pro for the cute lil bolillos. Con: The prices are crazzzzyy in my opinion. They nickel and dimed for everything. Steak on your chilaquiles extra $7. I asked for asada and was expecting the actual flat steak not this but it's fine. Almond milk, another charge. Flavoring for coffee, another charge. I literally looked at the receipt and was like geeez I'm surprised they didn't charge me for the water. In summary, is chila killer worth it? I'd say sure if I'm in the area and want Mexican food but come prepared to pay a pretty penny. I get inflation is crazy but I still think prices were insane for no reason.

This is my second time coming here, we're not from around the area but it is so delicious that whenever we are, we stop for breakfast! It is generally full but the wait is worth it, the staff is so friendly and the service is always quick, the place itself is big too so they are able to accommodate large groups. 10/10! ‍

Met one of my sisters here for brunch, hadn't seen her in a while. I believe it was both of our first time there. I was conflicted on what to drink because they had so many amazing drinks both non-alcoholic and alcoholic. Our waitress was awesome! She was like a whole vibe, very on top of it, very friendly, very funny. I should've got her name for this review. You know when you're out having a girls brunch and your waitresses is awesome too it just makes the whole event perfect . The food was delicious the drinks were fabulous! Nothing fancy about the restaurant very basic but has big nice widows and I love to people watch! I definitely will be back here.

Breakfast enchiladas
William O.

My wife and I love Chila-Killer Cafe. The service is always friendly and fast even when busy. The ambience is warm and clean with lots of plants around the restaurant. It has a rustic feel with its decor. The food here is very special. I don't know of any other place where you can choose from so many options for your chilaquiles. Typically, it's just red or green salsa, but here they have four options with different levels of heat. I've tried them all, but my personal favorite is the Borracha which has roasted tomato, jalapeño and beer! It's so delicious with a little heat but not much. There are so many flavors on the plate, plus I highly recommend getting the smoked pork chop. My wife had the breakfast enchiladas, which came with a beautiful salad. The sauce in the enchiladas was smoky, a little sweet and spicy. Finally, we shared the Killer Waffle, which has lots going on. I recommend asking for some whipped cream with it!

Chilaquiles w over easy eggs and roja sauce and smoked pork chop

Delicious food and prompt, friendly service. The place is packed for breakfast/brunch and they hustle! Our party of 4 arrived at 10am on a Sunday and joined the waiting list. They have a great website that keeps you posted on wait times. Accurate w 30 min estimate. Upon our being seated, our server showed up within a few minutes and took our drink and food orders. Drinks showed up within minutes and food in another 10-15 min. We ordered: chilaquiles w smoked pork chop, chorizon con papas, churro French toast w eggs and bacon, and avocado and bacon benny. Food arrived hot with generous portions. Eggs ordered over easy were still gooey. All were happy and digging in. House unsweetened mango ice tea and mocha w Ghiradelli chocolate were standouts. They even gave us more coffee and iced tea to go. We'll be back for more breakfast as well as trying their lunch. Yay for small businesses that continue to deliver and in a prompt, friendly atmosphere!

I opted for the vibrant red rose. It tasted exactly like a flavorless sponge drenched in l milk. Not even a hint of rose. Incredible, the white icing was equally flavorless, although it looked beautiful, with a sprinkling of dried rose petals. The overall effect was like eating a piece of cake that had fallen in a puddle of milk - with dried leaves in the icing. I had three bites and then told them guy behind the counter that it had no flavor and all he could offer was "I'm sorry". For $8 and no offer to make it right, it was a really bad experience and I would never go there again.

We were in Petaluma on an early morning when we decided to swing by here for breakfast. I checked…read moreYelp and online to make sure they were open and sure enough their hours lined up just when we would be arriving. When we got there, even though it said they were open, they were definitely closed and no one was there. We called a few times to make sure and then eventually called the other location where someone said that the restaurant should be open. We waited for a while and then finally the staff arrived. Needless to say, we were the only ones in the restaurant. I ordered the chili relleno omelette and he ordered the country hash benedict. I expected that the food would take a while because the restaurant was opening from a cold start, but weirdly enough our food was out really fast. I was a little bit off put by this but we tucked into our food anyway to give them a fair shot. My omelette was extremely bland and so were my potatoes. It came with salsa and desperately needed every drop. Hubby felt the same way about his breakfast, heavy and very bland... and ultimately we ended up taking everything to go and feeding it to our chickens. I felt like the price was really high for the low quality and the food flavor was really mediocre. Such a shame too because this is such a great location.... The old pongos? But unless they meet their quality with the price, I can't see this being very successful.

Since this place just opened up, we thought we would come check it out and we were seated rather…read morequickly on this early Saturday morning, and Food was out within maybe 5 to 10 minutes of us placing our order. I was very surprised to see they had organic black coffee. I love organic items and I was really happy to drink some coffee, granted it was a little too dark for my liking, but I also like mild late coffees. Lol. Our server was brotherly, friendly and helpful. Since the menu literally had five pages worth of things, a lot of them were similar items with either egg or bread based things and a lot of different meat components. The environment was a very cute little diner spot and I liked their open counter bar and it looks like they would play sports games or even cooking shows since they were a couple TVs along the back. They had a really good open set up and I liked how all the tables could be reconfigured for bigger parties. We ordered the waffles with strawberries and French toast and they were pretty mediocre. I don't like putting syrup on my waffles or French toast so the bread on the French toast was rather plain, although I could see speckles of cinnamon remnants in it, but I don't believe the batter had any vanilla and the waffles were very plain and just crispy and soft, but literally had no flavor until you added the butter. Strawberries were fine, but nothing over the top so I'm not too sure if I'll come back here or not.... but I am picky and I like things to have a lot of flavor.

Pricey but Cafe 88 hits the spot when you're in need for a little "grab & go" kinda situation…read more The menu consists of an assortment of main dishes such as: pho, beef stew, rice bowls, banh mi, wonton noodle soup, and a mexican inspired dish called "phozole". There is a good list of boba drinks and a plethora of baked goods|danishes. While I can't report on any actual food offerings, I can only speak on the pastries displayed along the counter that greets each visitor. Purchases include: bear claw, chocolate chip chocolate muffin, blueberry muffin, the pecan sticky bun. 3.5 stars overall because the pastries are very doable but they 100% do not taste freshly made. I might come back just to try out a banh mi- the reviews seem quite promising.

It's a Sunday morning before the crowd arrives and I ordered the Pork Banh Mi and Combination Pho…read more The Banh Mi was tasty and nicely compiled but I wish the meat was cut thinner. But that's personal preference. My partner, hubby, enjoyed the Pho and gave it a strong 4. The restaurant order area was clean but the servers were not too well versed and definitely not polite. I gave the cashier my players card and she neglected to link it to the order so I could get the appropriate purchase points. I asked her about it and she said she can't do anything about it. So off I went to the rewards line with receipt in hand. The attitude of the workers needs a bit adjustment or maybe a charm course in hospitality.
