Chips, ice cream and other amazing snacks.
Theo T.

This is the spot to go for snacks. The service is amazing and friendly. Came here with my girlfriend to grab some late night movie snacks. Love that they open so late and still serve thrifty ice cream.

Nasty Desert Waffle Double Scoop

Words can't describe how horrible this place is. I got the nastiest waffle I have ever tried. Nothing like the picture. Missing all the toppings and the only topping i requested it didn't have which was syrup it had. The banana was old and smelled and I show up and he had the ice cream just sitting with the waffle so it was melted by the time I ate it. I will never be coming back.

Bomb! Love this place definitely coming back again.

Esquite with Hot Cheetos

The bombest esquites are at el munchies!!! This is the spot when I'm craving something!! The guy who helped me out is always so helpful and friendly!! No long wait at all !!

We came here because my son was craving an esquite and we found this gem! The gentleman behind the counter was super friendly and even gave us some peach rings with chili to try. They were delicious. The esquite was really good! They have chalk board for people to draw on as well. Very small, clean and happy vibes in here.

Churros and mangonada
Bryant G.

We were very excited when we found the page for this spot. We are big fans of fruterias and wanted to come check out a new spot for some dulces. The place itself is pretty cool, interesting art and a good layout. Their menu is visible and easy to navigate. First reaction we both had was wow, everything is expensive. We put that on hold and decided to try out our favorites. We ordered a magonada and churros. We've had mangonadas probably 20 different places and understand people serve it up a little differently depending on where you're at. As he was almost done making it the guy behind the counter said "hey I'm out of mango, do you want a couple pieces of strawberry or watermelon instead?". You would think when someone orders mango that would be the time to tell them you don't have mango? This was a large cup full of some kind of mango puree, not ice cream and a ton of chamoy with three small pieces of fruit on top. Normally you'd find a scoop of mango ice cream covered in fresh diced mango. Even though I didn't look like what I've had a million other places, decided to give it a try. It had a strange almost chemical taste. Something was wrong It was bitter we both tried it and threw it away. $14 for three spoonfuls of disappointment. I almost ordered the concha ice cream sandwich but saw the conchas in plastic pouches, not fresh. With so many good panederias around making them fresh everyday, I just can't bring myself to eat something like that. The churros were decent, but the picture on the menu showed a cup full of ice cream, whipped cream and sauce with churros stuck in it. What I got was one scoop of ice cream a little bit of drizzle, two strawberries and two churros cut in half probably from a Costco box. This was okay if I had paid $7, but for 14 I expected more. I know where I can get churros made fresh while I watch that are way better and cost less. We wanted to love this place. It just wasn't very good especially at the high prices - we won't be back.

Dubai chocolate covered strawberries

They used cheap chocolate that hardens when it cools down rather than using something like Nutella. Making it such a hassle to eat. The strawberries were wet. My husband took one bite & he was out. I got the ick & stopped eating it too. Also, no pistachio butter.Very dry and unpleasant. For the price, you don't get what you paid for. Will never return. They sell better ones on the weekend at Americana by the mall entrance. That one tastes so delicious that I can't wait to go back. And it's in a much bigger cup with soft chocolate, pistachio butter, fresh dry strawberries, and sprinkle of real pistachios on top. For the same price !! Not very professional leaving condescending Responses to customers as an owner. And I said something LIKE Nutella. Please read carefully. And the chocolate was so hardened we couldn't eat it. Went right in the trash! My husband also said the customer service was zero! No hello and no greeting upon arrival. Good luck with your little shop !

I like it, just a small joint that gives you going to the carnival vibes. I get the corn and cheese every time. Sometimes I crave it.

My party of seven had reservations for a Friday night and were seated right away. The chips were…read morecomplimentary, but beware that the guacamole is so tax. It was still good and the presentation was honestly very artistic. As it darkened outside, the overhead lights dimmed inside the restaurant and their colored lights grew stronger! We ordered several frozen margaritas and they were generous sizes for a decent price, but were very melted by the time they were served. They were also a bit bland: not very tart, sweet, or strong. I shared a plate of the flautas (two steak / two chicken) and three chicken enchiladas, which both came with rice and beans. Everything was made well and the flautas were super crunchy, so that was a huge plus! It was enough to have plenty of leftovers if you're not too hungry. We were celebrating a graduation and didn't know there was a cake holding fee of $15, which I personally feel is on the pricier end. The food service was a bit slow, but we all got our food around the same time. Our servers were also very attentive and accommodating. It's genuinely a nice place to have dinner if you're at the Americana at Brand.

Ok. Don't let those good drinks you got at the bar that one time fool you. I should have "listened"…read moreto all those other reviews. The food is not good. There was little to no seasoning. The food came out tepid at best and then left a greasy taste in your mouth. The flautas were weirdly covered by excess shredded lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream (to cover up the ridiculously thick tortillas covering the tasteless meats inside, no doubt). The carnitas were lacking in flavor. The drinks bought to the table lacked the flare (and the flavor) of those we had at the bar. The space itself, is weirdly expansive. The mirrored ceiling makes the empty coldness even worse. Top tip, don't go and wait for a table - any table - anywhere else at the Americana.

I hope the owners see this. We have been there frequently and have to say the food is great, but…read morewhat makes Casa Cordoba is the live musician, Roger!!!!!!! I can emphatically say he's the best musician from the lineup. We were there on an off day, i think it was a Thursday, and we experienced another musician, David, he's ok, but he takes super LONG breaks, we specifically went there for the live "now Thursday music" which is great, but David just retreats to breaks tooooooo long. The music isn't upbeat. He's talented, but for the ambience, the musicians should make it fun and upbeat with some medium tempos as well. Roger, out of the lineup, is by far the most fun and upbeat, and he is so nice and personable! We went for lite appetizers and drinks, but roger made it that much more fun. We ended up staying until he was done. We gave him a very nice tip, and he was so grateful. Throughout the evening, we requested a few tunes, and he played them! We love his music and his energy! Roberto was fantastic as well, with positive energy and very friendly! We will be back soon, and will check Casa's website for Roger's dates!! He's MAGNIFICENT!!!!!!
