Cute little Mexican spot, they were very accommodating. Our server was nice, the ambiance was great.
Plenty of seating options, a well stocked bar and a small patio. This is a family and pet friendly space with tvs to watch sports (or kids shows) and music playing in the background. They have a variety of seating options, hight tables, booths, bar seating, and low tables with very comfy, sturdy, and wide seats. There's a private free parking lot in the backlot and street parking. Pet friendly on leash in patio and small dogs allowed inside a stroller. Service can improve, they were not very attentive and seemed a bit uninterested to be there. Also, our server (maybe she was new) oddly took the order for half of our group, left to serve a different table then returned to take our remaining groups order. The brunch items we ordered were some of the lattes, cafe de olla, mango lemonade (too sweet), the steak and eggs, chilaquiles with steak and French toast, everything tasted good. No spicy salsa available. Water is served in plastic cups. * 20% Tip is automatically added for group of 6 or more. Located inside Mr Tempo Building.
Service was fantastic, staff is very attentive! We stopped by for girls brunch. The food options are great! They have something for everyone. Their coffee is delicious as well. Service is very friendly and welcoming. We came closer to closing time and meant to catch up after not seeing each other in a while. We never felt rushed and the food and drinks came out in a timely manner! Food: 4.5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5
This was my second time at Conchas Café. The first time I went, I ordered the huevos rancheros, and they were BOMB! I really enjoyed my experience, so I was excited to come back. Unfortunately, this second visit was very disappointing. We were charged an extra $3 for bacon on the Classic Breakfast, even though bacon was supposed to be included. I ordered the jalapeño spicy panini, but the bread was both soggy and dry, which made it difficult to enjoy. My son ordered a burrito, and we specifically asked for the avocado and aioli sauce on the side. The aioli sauce was forgotten. His receipt also showed roasted red potatoes, but he received tater tots instead. The chilaquiles sauce was also way too overpowering for our taste. The manager was very nice when we explained that we didn't want the dish, and she offered to exchange it for something else. Unfortunately, the replacement order was also incorrect. My daughter requested bacon but received sausage instead. At that point, we decided not to send it back because we didn't want to wait even longer. I do want to say that the servers and manager were very nice and friendly, and I appreciate how the manager tried to make things right. However, there definitely needs to be better organization and communication when taking and preparing orders. I really wanted to love my second visit as much as my first, especially because those huevos rancheros were so good. Hopefully, they can work on the order accuracy and organization because I would like to give Conchas Café another chance.
First off, we came here because of the name. But there are no conchas to be found. That was kind of a disappointment because I had my heart set on pan dulce. We got the child's chicken tenders and fries and a breakfast plate that had bacon, eggs,tater tots and a pancake. We also got a café de olla latte. I felt the children's plate was a little pricey, but they gave a pretty good portion. To me it was priced the same as an adult plate. The breakfast plate was very good and the tater tots had a good crunch. The bacon was perfectly cooked and the eggs were also. The pancake was delicious, but didn't come with any syrup. Overall, it was an OK experience. The latte was sweet and delicious, and I felt like it was the highlight.
We are here for maxico game ..wow great costumer service .food is amazing... Micheladas are bomb
Got here with some coworkers right when they opened at 0900 on a Saturday, but there were already like six to seven other tables seated, so it looks like they do open a little earlier than 0900. Pretty extensive menu with a lot of different items and drinks. I got the chilaquiles with red sauce and added a steak for a total of $25.00. Everything on the plate was really good, from the chips to the steak, eggs, beans, and potatoes. Loved taking a bite with a little bit of everything in each bite. The portion size was also decent. Service was fast and friendly. My coworkers seemed to enjoy their meals too and they also liked their lattes and their drinks. Place got pretty busy by the time we left. Parking lot is pretty small, so I'm not sure where else you can park if it fills up. Overall, I really enjoyed my breakfast here and would definitely come back if I'm back in the area.
10/10. Came here for Saturday morning brunch to catch up with a girlfriend. We were seated within ten mins and it was packed inside. Service was great. Food was amazing. We ordered the chilaquiles red and green. The plates were such a huge portion. Can't wait to come back.
Went to have breakfast at conchas cafe with my husband and toddler. The food was really good. We had the breakfast burrito, chilaquiles, churro waffle. Very flavorful and filling. The portions are a great size we even took some food to go. The coffee and lattes were good too. I loved my deuce de leche latte. The cute mugs they give it in is a bit heavy to constantly pick up but the idea is there. I think they are also in the process of training new staff so the service is a little slow but that makes sense. We will definitely be back!
The seating was very nice. There is booths all along the wall. Lots of tv's, but low sound of music. The atmosphere is nice. You order at the counter first and then take your number to your table, which I actually really liked. No one hovering or checking on you every five minutes -- they just drop off your food, bring utensils, and let you enjoy your meal in peace. The conchas were the biggest letdown. They were pretty dry and had that "sat out for a while" texture. We only took one bite of each and left the rest. They're only about fifty cents, so I wasn't mad about the price, but with concha in the name, I expected them to taste way better. The potatoes were a hit -- super well seasoned. The croissant sandwich was delicious. The bread was crazy good and the cheese they use is really tasty. If you don't like a runny yolk, make sure to ask them to cook it through. I swapped the side salad for potatoes for an extra $3. The huevos rancheros had a great amount of spice and everything was cooked perfectly. It was on the greasy side, but honestly, with chorizo involved, that's kind of expected. The honey vanilla iced latte was delicious -- just a light hint of honey. If you don't want a strong honey flavor, this is perfect. The dulce de leche iced latte was also really good and not overly sweet, which I appreciated. Overall, solid food with some standout items, but I probably wouldn't go back for the conchas.
The experience here is always good, there was no wait time. My favorite thing about Concha's Cafe is literally the coffee. Second time coming here, and it won't be my last. This time I got the steak and eggs. Honest review here! The steak wasn't great, well at least to my liking. But just because I didn't like it doesn't mean you won't like it. This is one of m favorite spots to have breakfast. I loveeeeeeeeeeeeee the coffee here.
So we found out a few months back that this place was here. We also heard that they had Conchas or Pan Dulce, we arrived and this place was booming! Loving the vibe and the music was good. We ordered 2 Cappuccino's and then we waited..... and waited.... 30 minutes later we get our coffee BUT! It was the wrong order. We figured we would probably wait another 30 minutes so the wife said that we should just leave, but we waited and soon after we got our correct order. The Cappuccino was really good! And it was nice being able to sit and drink out of a reg coffee cup instead of the typical to go type of cups. The waitress ditched us afterwards though so we had to get up and ask for our bill. The manager was very nice and we chatted for awhile. Overall I really enjoyed the coffee, hopefully when we come back we won't wait as long.
So far the burrito is delicious. Customer service has been great. Already came here about 4 times previously. They're always welcoming. The cafe de leche is my favorite. My sister said the chilaquiles were good. Haven't tried them.

My mom and I visited Concha's Café for the first time and had a wonderful experience! The staff was so friendly and welcoming, and it was nice to see how busy they were--clearly a local favorite. I had the chilaquiles with steak and roasted potatoes, and the presentation was beautiful. Every bite was full of flavor. We love supporting local businesses and can't wait to come back, especially when they open for dinner! read more

You had to stand in line to order. For someone with ADA needs, this poses an issue . Especially. If you have to wait for others to order. After you order the food was brought out to you. They give you a pair of concha's to tie you over. Also there was a tip jar and the tip on the POS was 18-20-22%. We hadn't even sat down. We had the green chilaquiles plate . The flavor was good, the eggs were perfect. The black beans were hot enough. The other was the "steak" breakfast. The meat was good. The eggs were good. Questions: what kind of Mexican place doesn't offer tortillas, or frijoles de olla or refried beans? Cons: they had an extensive drink menu, but no soda or iced tea. We settled on the (minute made) lemonade . The bill was $61. For two plates of food, two lemonades for a BREAKFAST. Eggs, chips, beans, a thin flap steak . We left a cash tip at the table . Also they couldn't customize anything. The hostess/ cashier seemed confused about a custom omelette . There was no ham, bacon, or sausage on the menu. The space has been empty. The furniture and LOTS of big screen tv were left from the former tenant. This isn't a negative comment. The place was clean and tidy. read more

This is such a breath of fresh air. I'm so glad we have this restaurant in montebello! We need more places like this! The food was great, coffee was delicious! The ambience was very chill, and service was great! I got the chilaquiles with asada, the green salsa was a little bitter for my taste but overall very delicious. I got the mocha latte as well and that was a delight! Would definitely come back! Especially for those concha's.... read more

This place says Mr Tempo out front and all over inside. During the Brunch time, it's Concha's café. The ambience is very bar-like with TVS and up beat music playing. The food looked pretty good but fell short. For instance had the eggs Benedict come with a salad and/or potato option, that would have been better. The Chilaquiles were lacking that smoky green chile taste and the beans it came with were a crime against all bean lovers. The 'popular' dish of matcha Pancakes was greenish but didn't taste at all like matcha. Our hot drinks were good and they made it how we asked. The service was good- very attentive. Only thing is we were told we could sit and someone would take our order, but during brunch time, it's order at the register and get a number for your table. Overall, it's a good option for fresh food and an upbeat ambience..but if you're looking for a cute mom n pop type place, where the food is savory and is worth ur $$, this ain't it. read more

Honestly the way they decided to do things here is horrible. So they have a big hype right now and clearly there's a line. BUT the part that is annoying is that you have to ORDER & PAY/TIP first, BEFORE you sit down. Then you get a number for your order, and wait some MORE to sit down and then WAIT for your food to get there. They need to change that. I understand a line but do it like a regular restaurant (this isn't a fast food joint unless that's what you're going for) you come in they sit you down and then the waitress/er comes and takes your order. It would be less frustrating for the customer. Also if you know you have big lines why not put the menu outside as well so people can start looking at it. Food prices look reasonable, what seems overpriced is the drinks $8 for a "large" coffee ? Really!! The coffee wasn't worth the $8 I paid but it is what it is. FOOD... I ordered the chicken and waffle (1 waffle and 3 chicken strips) not even homemade strips just frozen reheated. It supposedly came with a spicy sweet syrup (ummm no it didn't) they brought no butter, no napkins nothing to you, you had to keep asking for things. Don't get me wrong servers where nice. That's a management issue to not think of things like that. Anyways never coming back NOT WORTH it. The food not worth it and the wait was definitely not worth it. Oh to add like another person said here there where NO conchas at all served. And items not on menu where displayed on the TV (just pictures) but not listed on the menu which I saw later another person was able to order it. So not sure what's going on but once more don't recommend. read more

The food was very delicious and the presentation was beautiful. We went on a weekday morning so it wasn't busy at all. The service was quick with no lines. I would say that the actual restaurant wasn't too different from the original, Don Chenté but over all it appeared clean. read more

I come here maybe once a week to the point that I already know everyone there! The food is good and the people are amazing. Don't be surprised if there is no parking or a long line. It's always like that even on weekdays. I always get the chilaquiles and for the price is not bad read more

Today we went to Concha's for Sunday brunch. So I will start off from the beginning. 1. It's valet parking with know fee just Tip for the valet attendant which was ok. 2. There is no reservations first come first serve in the sitting. 3. You have to wait your turn in line to place an order at the counter and there must be available table to sit at before you can place an order unless you are taking it to go I suppose. 4. Tables are limited since it's not a big place. 5. They menu is small but has a good selection and they do have a full bar for the Tiempos restaurant side of the establishment. 6. I placed everyones order and went to pay. They still ask for a tip and they only bring you out your food. The do not come around checking on you asking if you need anything lease. You need to make all the effort. they gave us a number and we took our seats that we snagged while one waited in line. 6. There were 6 of us so we order different items. They give you free concha's to snack on one for each person while you wait for your order t arrive. 7. We order Eggs Benedict, chilaquiles with green salsa, pancakes with eggs, steak and eggs and chicken and waffles. 8. So here goes to the food review. The place was busy. We had to wait a very long time to get our food after we placed our order. Even getting a plastic cup of water to a while. Once our food came it looked good. That's where things took a twist for me. Everyone enjoyed their food except me. I will say that the eggs and the potatoes are really good and everyone else really loved their food. The chicken with the chicken and waffles where tender with cinnamon sugar on the not very savory and the picture below is my first plate of food I got, since I had to send it back because my only pancake was so hard that the steak knife they gave me wouldn't cut it. So I sent it back. But the time I got my redo plate everyone at my table was done with their food. So I ate alone. I never ate my pancake because it just wasn't any good. I let everyone on the table taste it to make sure it was not just me. We were all in agreement the pancake was horrible. God I wanted to be at iHop. The concha's on the other hand were very good. The latte was good but a little sweet for me. 9. I might go back and eat something other than pancakes and try maybe dinner. I would give this place a 6/10 because everyone else's food was good according to them. read more

Service was amazing, the ambience is pretty nice and the food is decent. Plating is very pretty. Overall it's a good experience. I got the eggs Benedict and it was decent. I also got the matcha latte and it was good. My boyfriend got the French toast breakfast plate with a green tea frap and he said it was good. Overall I would probably come back but it's nothing to crazy but in the area it's pretty good. read more

What an amazing spot. Nothing like this in Montebello. I had the smoke salmon eggs Benedict. The yolk oozed out perfectly. Smoke salmon was light and flavorful. Hollandaise sauce was creamy and light. I had their season potatos so yummy. Next time I'll try the tots.I ordered the cafe de olla which had nice sweet lovely flavor, not too sweet. Then I celebrated my Saturday with a mimosa. Definitely coming back to work down the menu. Lots of great options you can't find around Montebello. This place makes me happy. read more

When you enter the restaurant they have you place your order and pay first which i thought was odd to pay first when I'm use to paying after eating. The meal we order was chicken and waffles- 16$ and pancake meal combo which was 16$ but went up to 20$ as I upgraded my pancake to a matcha pancake. We as well got waters with our meal but had to get them ourselves from the water station. The meal was over priced and mediocre. The chicken and waffles came with 1 small waffle and small chicken that was cooked bake style? And no sides with it either. For other items on the menu it if you order pancakes it doesn't come with sides. My pancake combo meal came with one single pancake that was green and not matcha flavor at all and eggs and potatoes.This place is nice looking and good if you're looking for a Instagram worthy pictures and influencer vibes. However if you want a meal that comes with actual portions I would go else where to eat a meal. 40$ for our meal no drinks included. Also it's called concha cafe and there isn't any concha's on the menu. read more

Went here for a birthday brunch and the experience was amazing !! Mango Smoothie was fresh and so delicious it had me and my friend eyes wide open. Their iced strawberry matcha latte was amazing as well ! You are also able to take the drinks to go if you ask. Chilaquiles with the steak and hash brown was so delicious, my friend tried and she she could not get enough of it that we ended up sharing the plate. Steak was juicy and tender! Matcha Waffle was the perfect 'something sweet'. That being said, me and my friend are definitely coming here again and will be ordering the same dishes because it was a def 10/10 ! read more
