    Steak Picado and Eggs
    Jobin J.

    Came here on Sunday around noon time for brunch and the food was really good. We waiting for maybe 20 mins for a seat and the service was good a little slower than other places but it was still good. The food was very fresh and tasty. The chips and salsa were very good. I would recommend this spot for anybody craving Mexican breakfast. They have other breakfast items as well.

    There are multiple Lucy's locations around town but Lucy's West is my favorite breakfast spot. This location has a quaint diner feel and excellent service. The coffee is great and you really can't go wrong ordering anything. My top choices for breakfast are the Chilaquiles Rojo (my personal fave!), the machaca breakfast plate, or the Huevos Rancheros. Each of these entrees are served with refried beans and hash browns and everything is exceptionally delicious!

    This is just too good. This Lucy's location is just the best in El Paso. I ordered the Lucy 's Famous Machaca Plate, and it just tasted too good!! Service is just incredible, and it is a really zen vibe in here. This location is better than the Kings X location, in my opinion. It is a mix of old and new Mexican food! I highly recommend!!

    Go to Lucy's! Don't even think twice about it! This place was amazing! If you are looking for traditional American breakfast or Mexican breakfast Lucy's has it all! Lucy's Famous Machaca Breakfast is a must! The flavors are perfect and the side of beans are amazing! It is the perfect combination. The French toast combo comes dressed up! The menu may not say it, but the presentation in itself is wonderful. Everything was perfect with this one! Lucy's is a must for breakfast and/or brunch! Go!! We look forward to trying other menu items here! Wonderful staff and food!

    I felt like caldo and the girl wanted breakfast so we ended up at Lucy's Cafe West. They recently renovated and added another dining area about 2 months ago so it's twice the size now. The manager was super nice, they opened a little bit late, but it's because of the worker shortage situation, so completely understandable. We ended up ordering the French toast plate and it was beautifully presented and the little loved the chocolate sauce twist. I got the Tlalpeno caldo because it sounded so interesting, a chicken based broth with garbanzo beans, shredded chicken, veggies, cheese, avocados, and a chipotle chili which gives it a bit of a kick. The manager described it like a tortilla soup but without the tortilla strips and spicier...and that's exactly what it was. So, so good. Very flavorful and perfect for the rainy weather. If you get soup/caldo, get this one. It also came with a side of rice and 2 mini quesadillas. It was a lot of food. I highly recommend Lucy's Cafe West since it has great service, the dining room is updated and modern and pleasant and the food is outstanding! If you can't make it out, I believe they deliver thru the apps too! Lucy's Cafe West (915) 842-8329 6600 N Mesa St #401, El Paso, TX 79912 https://maps.app.goo.gl/mUBeNSUMmcc3Xjkw6

    Very tasty nachos. Only wish the queso and toppings were better distributed on the chips.

    Soo good and always good service but food could take a little long its delicious when it comes.

    Ordered some breakfast burritos to-go, but once I arrived and saw the ambiance, we decided to eat-in. The place is clean, cute, and efficient. You can tell the tortillas aren't homemade, but they're still good. Coffee is bottomless and they leave a container of liquid creamer and sugar dispenser on the table. No complaints about the coffee. Drinks are served in Mason glasses, and the lemonade tastes fresh-squeezed (I cringe at Minute Maid tart stuff, so theirs was yummy). They have an outdoor seating area, but it'll only really accommodate 2 people per table. Important to note is when you come in, there is a list you sign yourself into. It's white lined paper on a clipboard next to the register. I saw people come in who knew and were able to jump people over who didn't. They do charge 3.5% credit card fees, so bring cash if you can. We had two coffees, lemonade, 3 breakfast burritos for $23. So affordable and definitely worth it. We'll be back.

    Amazingly good flautas for an incredibly reasonable price. (They have other dishes too, but that's…read morewhat they are known for!) Beans and rice on the side are optional / modest extra charge - they are usually very good and worth adding if you're hungry enough. My favorite sauce is the Chipotle. It's got heat as it's also creamy...I would call it medium (I like spicy food.) If you're getting them to go, you might want the sauce and toppings on the side. They usually ask about that, but occasionally they might forget. Service is usually friendly and efficient even when they are busy. Your food is made to order, so it's fast but not instantaneous. Allow 5-10 minutes for pickup most of the time. The dining room is medium-sized. I would say it's a place to eat and go, not stay and linger.

    Stopped at El Taquito for breakfast during our move from WA to TX, and it was such a great choice…read more The staff was incredibly friendly, and the whole place had that warm, local-favorite vibe. We ordered the flautas with chipotle sauce and the chilaquiles with half red and half green sauce. The chilaquiles were absolutely amazing. We added a runny egg since we couldn't do chicken, and it gave the dish extra flavor and a good boost of protein. The flautas (which I'd honestly describe more as taquitos dorados) were crunchy and tasty. We liked the chipotle sauce that came with them, but we actually loved dipping them into the chilaquile sauce even more. Overall, it was a great spot to grab breakfast before hitting the road again for many more hours. Highly recommend!

    I think solid is a perfect word for this place. Not the best Mexican food I've ever had, but not…read morethe worst. I bumped it up to four stars for the super friendly service and the excellent aguas frescas. We got there late, about an hour before closing and they were literally trying to get rid of the aguas for free. I guess they have to dump it if they don't use it all. It was close to our hotel so we gave it a try. Portion sizes are good. The taco platter comes with six tacos! I had the flautas Chinampa which came with four beef flautas, beans, rice, and salad. I forgot, the taco platter even came with a baked potato. Prices were excellent. We had gone to McDonald's in the morning and spent more. They also cave us frijoles charros for free. Not sure if this was standard or if they were also trying to get rid of it. I would return for the service and the convenience, but if you're looking for life changing Mexican cuisine, it's not here. What you get is a good amount of decent food at a good price served by great people.

I ordered that and got a ton of food. The serving was huge. Everything looked fresh. When I finished, man, was i full. Everything on that plate was excellent. Good flavor.
