Our new favorite local place for brunch! I've tried several things on the menu but my fav is the Swiss Avocado Omelette!

I did not realize they have started baking pan dulce! I was pleasantly surprised. It is fresh and very good. Nothing hours better with coffee, than a piece of pan dulce. read more

Lily's Cafe - They started baking in-place delicious pan dulce! It is fresh and really good. Recommended!! - Latin American Near Me - Plano, Texas

Excellent food and service. We came here for the breakfast but ended up getting guatemalan and tex mex plates that were amazing.

Great food!! I haves lived near this place for over ( yerS and just recently discovered it! Breakfast is fantastic

This place is a definite gem! The staff are super friendly their Chicken Fried Steak is the best I have ever eaten here in Texas! The place accommodation are fantastic! Saw a photo on Yelp 3 years ago from here and even though it is not on the menu they were able to make it for us! If you must know it was the chili cheese fries! Awesome we will be here often! read more

Delicious food, amazing staff! 1000% recommend the Guatemalan breakfast menu! So goooood every time!

Huge menu with tons of selections. Recommend the Breakfast and brunch! Kind of a hidden gem - but give it a try! Open 6 am to 3 pm.

Great food and service! Will be coming back for sure. The food was very quick, great taste and the server was very knowledgeable about the recommendations. My family loved it and so did I. read more

Unique Guatemalan cuisine! Can't get that many places. It was super yummy too! I came in for breakfast and had the authentic Guatemalan chorizo. That blended with the cheese, black beans, eggs, hash browns, sauce, sour cream, avocado, and grilled onions was a kaleidoscope of wonderful flavors in my mouth! read more

Got there at 2:25 sign says open till 3:00. They were closed! Made a special effort and rushed to get there they decided to close early.

Just posting the pic so you can see the time. We literally drive across town to come here as my mom loves their waffles. We pull up at 2:22 are parking and the lady inside is legit looking at us l.. turns off the open sign and locks the doors. They don't close until 3 every day. Rude af. read more

So far, I've been to Lili's twice now. Once pre-COVID by myself and once earlier today with my wife. Both experiences were pleasant and the food didn't take long this time, despite the fact that there was a decent crowd inside. Today we were seated in a nice booth well away from others, not too far from the kitchen and separated by barrier from other guests. Our server was a very attentive and polite young man who was eager to make sure we enjoyed ourselves. As for the food, I had the Texas Hash and my wife enjoyed the West Coast Benedict. All around fantastic experience! read more

This was so good, I had to Yelp about it. A few years ago, we took a vacation to Cerro de Oro, Guatemala on Lake Atitlan. It was one of the most breathtaking places I've ever seen. The main thing I tell people when they ask about that trip was how good the food there was. It's simple, fresh and delicious and crema is served with everything! We have tried buying crema a few times once we got back home, but it's not near as good. I was looking for a brunch place to get takeout for our weekly Sunday Funday (#basic) and Lilly's popped up. I started looking over the menu and came to the Guatemalan breakfast section. My heart leapt. Could it be???? And it was!!!! The food was soooo good. And the crema is the same kind we fell in love with. I had the Guatemalan chorizo con huevos and my husband had the huevos con salchiches. Both plates come with black beans, crema, a queso fresco type cheese and my husband's plate had a fried plantain too (something else that came with nearly every meal we had on our trip). Absolutely fabulous. This breakfast took me back to one of the most special times in my life. We will be returning. read more

We ate here tonight and were the only patrons aside from a woman and 2 kids who appeared to be either related to the waiter or were friends or a girlfriend. Service was slow considering we were the only ones there. My chili relleno was ok , but the poblano pepper seemed soggy. The price was steep considering the small amount of food. My husband's enchiladas were average. The waiter got on his phone and ignored us for at least 10 minutes. We were finished and waiting on our check. The woman's kids got rowdier as time passed and were allowed to run everywhere in the restaurant squealing and making a lot of noise. No effort was made to stop their antics. It felt like we were in a kindergarten class. The waiter got off his phone and came to our table finally. He left with my husband's credit card. Again, he was more interested in the woman than bringing our credit card back to us. They became interested in something on her phone. I don't know how they stay in business if every night goes this way. We won't return. read more

I can't believe I've lived around the corner from this gem for 7 years and just now discovered it. Food was phenomenal! My first time with Guatemalan cuisine but they also have all of the regular diner goodies. Service was great, portions large and prices low! read more

I have to begin my saying that I adore family owned breakfast places. They're food is always unique to their family while still maintaining a sense of similarity among other breakfast places. Lily's Cafe is no different. I loved the quietness of the restaurant, the music wasn't too loud and they were prompt with my coffee (which I have to say is pretty splendid). The ENTIRE menu was open at 9:00AM which is a HUGE thing given that most places separate their breakfast and lunch menus. I loved that they had a specific Guatemalan menu insert in case you wanted to venture into Latin food versus mixed Tex-Mex breakfast/lunch food. We ordered the Cinnamon French Toast Combo and Chicken Fried Steak Combo. Each were amazing. The gravy was house made, the eggs weren't powder eggs, the hash browns were plenty and not frozen. Overall very tasty breakfast food. The price is very reasonable for where it is and how small and the service was spectacular. Will definitely be back! read more

This is our go to breakfast spot. The food is consistently delicious & arrives quickly. The service is great. With covid, it's always clean & presented well which makes me comfortable. Waitress is attentive & our coffee mug is always full :) Great variety of Guatemalan dishes, as well as, the traditional American plates. We have not been disappointed yet! Also we learned at breakfast this morning as of 10/21/21, they are extending the cafe hours will be open all day Mon-Sat (normal shortened hours on Sun still). read more

I went in for breakfast and I was finishing my coffee I brought with me from Panera. We waited over 15 minutes for our waitress to acknowledge us. The owner would not serve us and asked us to leave. I was prepared to order food and beverages from her establishment. That was extremely rude. I have never had a problem anywhere else finishing a coffee while I waited to be served. I will never eat there again. I guess my money wasn't good enough. The worst customer service ever!! read more

We have now been here twice and love it! Had a large group (12) on a Sunday morning - our server took great care of us and everyone loved the food. Will definitely be back!! read more

Tried this place with a friend visiting from out of town. Neither of us was impressed. The food was...ok. I had the hash; my friend had an omelet. We shared chips and queso. None of it was very flavorful. Just meh and bland. Also, the service was pretty poor. Our waiter meant well and tried hard, but kept forgetting things. I left feeling full, but that's the best I can say about it. read more

Fun cozy spot for Peruvian food. I like their breakfasts, but their shrimp fajitas were good too. It's casual and the dining room atmosphere is very low key/not fancy. Feels like a family owned place and is unpretentious with good food. read more

It was really pretty and the food was good. It was my first time in this restaurant and it is underrated. Theirs a lot of variety in the menu. Would recommend. read more

The food was amazing! Everything was well cooked and filling. Great and friendly service. They served our food quickly which is uncommon with most breakfast places. The only negative thing is that the coffee tasted cheap. If an establishment serves breakfast food they should invest in a good/decent quality coffee. Other than that, I will be coming here again and sneaking coffee from there neighbors (mud leaf coffee). read more

Pricey, for the food to just be ok. The people there are nice. The location is in a cool little spot on the corner.

What a gem! After years of living in the area we never thought of checking this place out. We were very impressed with the food! We ordered the steak and egg plate and the American skillet. Both were made with fresh ingredient and tasted delicious. We are very excited to come and try the Guatemalan dishes next! Nice neighborhood find! read more

My elderly dad read that Lily's has some of the best catfish in the area, so as odd as that sounds, we went specifically for that. He was the last to order and was told they don't have any and haven't for "at least a year." He's an easy-going guy but was disappointed. The food we ordered (American and Guatemalan breakfasts, Tex-Mex entree) was good, but don't go for the catfish if you read whatever it was my dad read! read more

This small cafe has a large menu so perhaps we should try something different. The Steak tacos we're far to tough to consume and the chicken enchiladas were lacking flavor thus not worth the calories. There's no alcohol served here. Although the staff was nice my order was wrong increasing my meal by almost 10.00. Try El Pubelito as those steak tacos are life changing. read more

Lily's Cafe - Interior - Latin American Near Me - Plano, Texas

We recently moved to Plano and had we known about Lily's when we lived in Frisco, we wouldn't have thought twice about driving that far. Bonus points that it's close to our new house. We had a tamal de elote as an appetizer, which was incredible. We then had an omelette and the carne con huevos, which both came with the most incredible homemade corn tortillas. The cinnamon French toast was also delicious. We'll definitely be back! read more

Soft 4* for the successor to the beloved La Fnca Chiquita. Food wasn't great but, not bad either. The Guatemalan omelette could have used more ham and one end could have been cooked more. Beans delish. Wife's pancakes, Eggs (easy), bacon, and sausage were fine. Corn tortillas, obviously made in house, too thick. Very good coffee. Can't wait to go bk to see if Tex Mex (which everbuddy else in the restaurant was getting) is as good as La Finca's... was read more

Food quality is poor. Cheese was the processed cheese slice instead of grated cheese. Coffee is different/strange. My husband said it tasted like bread. French toast was pretty good. Eddie's Diner across the street is much better. read more

We were pretty disappointed by our experience. We came here after seeing the high yelp rating, and it didn't even come close to meeting our expectations. We came on a Friday morning, and it was pretty much empty, which should have been our first clue. An elderly couple trickled in over the course of our meal, but no one in our age group (20s/30s). We ordered the American breakfast food, and really nothing satisfied. The pancakes were thin and chewy with an interesting, bitter aftertaste, and the omelette was dry, flavorless, and just bleh. Hash browns were over cooked and wayyy too dry, and we needed to add a ton of salt and pepper. The bacon was chewy and seemed old, and even my English muffin was under-toasted and almost cold. The biggest disappointment was the price we had to pay for such below average food. Our total was $27 for two people, which we would ordinarily not mind paying if the food was exceptional, but we felt like we wasted our money. I will say, the service was good, and the coffee was decent. Atmosphere is quiet and quaint but nothing exciting or memorable. Guess ya can't win em all. read more

Great little restaurant. My fav is the three taco dinner. They have a huge menu of non Tex Mex things but I keep going back for my fav lol

Guatemalan inspired food. Well, I've never had food from Guatemala but this restaurant has done its culture proud. It was absolutely delicious. The black beans are the most flavorful ever! Had to order another side of them. The decode needs some improvements but I'll will definitely recommend this place for brunch. read more

They need to update their hours, they are not open at 6am on Saturday. Drove all the way from Frisco, waste of time and gas. Will go find a place that is open. read more

The staff are amazing and we were greeted with a warm welcome when we walked through the door. I had the steak and eggs and it was absolutely amazing. The environment was awesome and the waitstaff was amazing. Thumbs up for great customer service read more

We have been here for breakfast a couple of times. They have a great breakfast menu selection. One menu is authentic Guatemalan with some very interesting choices. I went with the hungry man omelette which includes all kinds of meats. It was delicious with a side of hash browns. Very good food, nice folks and very clean. This will be on our go to breakfast list. read more

This place is amazing! We went specifically for their traditional Guatemalan food, and it did not disappoint! Even their drip coffee was delicious; it's rare that I drink coffee without sweetener, but theirs didn't need it! So glad I found this spot, and couldn't recommend enough! read more

Food - 3.5 Service - 3.5 Value - 3 We came here a few months ago and were expecting good things given the Yelp reviews. We came away feeling like this was more of a 3-star experience overall. We were looking forward to some items that were listed as being available on the weekend, but it turned out it must be seasonal (which would not have been an issue for us had they listed that on the menu instead of making one believe it would be available). In the end we ordered few breakfast dishes that left us feeling "ok, it's an average breakfast for the price we pay" and that we'd rather go elsewhere next time for the same price. read more
