La Chilaquileria is a great spot for both breakfast and burgers.
Of course, the speciality here is chilaquiles. The twist is that you build your own chilaquiles. On a laminated order form you select with a Sharpie the type of totopo (tortilla) chips, cheese and toppings you want. Unless you specify otherwise, your chilaquiles will come with squiggles of crema on top.
The chilaquiles here are well-prepared and made with quality ingredients.
You can also get other breakfast dishes. I've had Huevos Con Jamón (scrambled eggs with ham). This dish comes with a most excellent chunky portion of refried beans, sliced avocado and bread.
We've also come here in the evening when they have a different menu, focusing on burgers. I ordered a classic burger. The meat was delicious and the toasted bun was perfect. I'm of the opinion that, for whatever reason, Mexican burgers are better than American burgers. The burgers come with fries.
Service is quick and the staff cordial and helpful. We do wish the music wasn't so loud. It's a bit hard to carry a conversation. But they will turn it down if you ask them.
