    Machaca con huevo
    Mirrella B.

    This restaurant was a nice find. We stopped by for brunch. My mom is usually picky, but she was able to find something she liked. We tried a few different drinks: green juice, iced cinnamon latte with oat milk, and an orange juice. To eat we had: machaca con huevo, pan Frances especial, and chilaquiles with machaca. Everything tasted great. The french toast was lightly sweetened and did not require syrup. The chilaquiles were different! Instead of them using tortilla chips, they used tortilla strips. It made the chilaquiles crunchy. The dish had plenty of machaca for each bite. The beans and rice were also good. Overall, we had a good experience. The service was good. If you're in the area, this is definitely a great place to get a bite.

    Recommend by son and daughter-in-law. They were right . The taste of this chilaquiles hit the spot. The service was superb with a smile , seems like the waiters like their job because it's very professional and courteous, the ambience is mellow and relaxing . The coffee is also good. I'm coming back to try other plates next time .

    Had chilaquiles with machaca, a lemonade with guava and a Carajillo with mezcal!

    Great service, great food and drinks! Dog friendly loved that my dog was welcomed. Cleaned and easy access to the restaurant.

    Beef toast

    Im giving this place a 5 star review because the service is a 10/10!!! All the servers are very very nice and we felt so welcomed and heard! We ordered chilaquiles and the beef toast and came with some delicious potatoes! Both amazing! The ice chai latte was my favorite too! They have a lot of street parking and it's a really cute spot!

    I travel down to TJ several times a year and I think I found my new favorite restaurant! The staff don't speak much English but it was great getting to practice my Spanish here and interact with the staff, who were all so kind and friendly! The place is a bit small, so if you want to get a spot, be sure to come early before the crowds - this place seemed pretty popular locally and there was a line out the door when we left around 10:30am. The food: The food here was so yummy! I got the apple belgian waffle and it melted in my mouth and the fruit was delicious. I also got a mimosa and it was one of the best I've ever had! the staff even offered to let us try the other flavors on the house, which was so kind. There were 3 different mimosa flavors - Strawberry, peach and mango, all which were incredible! Parking: there is street parking! be sure to come earlier to avoid the crowds and get a spot.

    Latte & hot tea while we waited

    We had the BEST experience. The open kitchen and cozy atmosphere really created the best ambiance. Watching the chefs at work was like a show! Must order: - Carajillo - Mimosas are w real juice - lobster chilaquiles - waffles (we had sweet potato) - breakfast burger Service was exceptional. It was a 25 min wait but BEYOND worth it!

    Pan Frances Especial (Special French Toast)
    Mariella S.

    Really great customer service, they didn't have any tables available so they let us sit at the bar and took our orders. Drinks came out quickly and they moved us to a table as soon as one was available. I got the Iced Cafe De Olla Latte and it was soooooo good. The Pan Frances Especial was also super yummy but definitely a lot going on (I knew this before ordering, I still wanted it haha) The restaurant itself is pretty small but has good ambiance!

    House hamburger
    SD G.

    The wait is horrendous! It's a very small place with only 7 tables and take outs as well. We waited 2 Hours for a table! Then another hour for the food to be deserved! Totally not worth the drive NOR the wait! The hamburgers was raw!' We asked for well done! The waffle- have no idea how to describe the taste but tastes like cardboard! My kid took one bite of it that's all!!

    Great customer service and delicious food! We ordered french toast, red chilaquiles with ribeye and green chilaquiles de langosta (lobster). Highly recommend ordering this.

    Service: the serving staff were very professional and attentive. This place is a bit small so we didn't have to wait too long for a server when we needed one. The restaurant itself is very quaint and cozy. The music is kept a bit high so conversation was not easy. Music choice was very neutral leaning in the rock direction. Very clean industrial hip atmosphere. Very different for playas but I liked it. The food was very good. Firstly I will start with what I didn't like. There are no options/portions for kids. My son had the waffles which he didn't like due to an unknown spice that they had. He ended up finishing with the French toast which my daughter also had. The French toast was very good. The fruits served with them were very fresh. I have the shrimp chilaquiles and my husband had the marlin chilaquiles. The presentation was very different but they were absolutely delicious. The balance of flavor and crisp was my favorite. They have a good selection of breakfast options you don't find everywhere. If you get bored easily this is a good place to come and try new things. The drinks were also very good. The kids had juices which I was very happy with. They were natural juices with no sugar added. Very unusual but the gained big points for this with me. My husband had the mimosas and tried all the different flavors on the menu. Overall the the experience was a very good one. The music level and the lack of kid portions/options kept them from getting a 5 star but I highly recommend this place for anybody looking for something different in Mexican cuisine. Will be back for sure!

    Delicious food, great service will definitely be coming back!!

    Great service, amazing food! Will definitely be back. BTW definitely try the French toast and waffle!

    Ceviche de Camarón
    Franchesca S.

    After reading a couple reviews I noticed that many guest shared the same experience we did here. Chef Mao treated us as if we were part of his family. He is a very charismatic and talented chef and obviously understands how to keep repeat guests. We had the best service - chef Mao was very attentive and personable. He was willing to make anything that we were craving regardless if it was/ wasn't on the menu. I ordered off the dinner menu and had the most delicious shrimp ceviche. The presentation was unique and every dish we tried he put a lot attention to detail. The interior decor is very modern and chic. I will definitely be coming back this is one of my new favorite places. Prices are great too! Great value!

    Crab chilaquiles

    Great food & service. I recommend any of the chilaquiles on the menu, this place is known for that. The octopus was cooked to perfection & the crab was fresh . These chefs can throw down & create some great food with a beautiful presentation.

    French toast especial and chilaquiles poblanos everything was delicious

    First off I went based on all the videos on instagram great videos. Place is not how it looks on…read morevideos! Food was ok but not for the price and service ketchup was bad and spoiled my wife's plate was warm my plate came cold told them all they did was pour more warm hot sauce on top of my chilaquiles red sauce was good. Lots of miscommunication even though we were speaking fluent Spanish. Here is a picture of our Brunch recipe. I was also charged for them to sign HBD for my wife when they asked we can choose from a pastry from the house which was a flan de elote . Price is out of range for service and experience! No Courtesy For Anything and food being cold and ketchup being bad drinks were also not as cold except my cold coke with ice. En primer lugar, me basé en todos los vídeos de Instagram, grandes vídeos. ¡El lugar no es como se ve en los vídeos! La comida estaba bien, pero no por el precio y el servicio, el ketchup estaba malo y estropeado, el plato de mi esposa estaba caliente, mi plato vino frío, les dije que todo lo que hicieron fue verter más salsa picante caliente encima de mis chilaquiles, la salsa roja estaba buena. Mucha falta de comunicación a pesar de que hablábamos español con fluidez. Aquí hay una foto de nuestra receta de brunch. También me cobraron para que firmaran HBD para mi esposa cuando pidieron que pudiéramos elegir entre un pastel de la casa que era un flan de elote . ¡El precio está fuera de rango para el servicio y la experiencia!

    From entry, we were greeted by every staff member with a smile. It was Saturday morning so it was…read morebusy but we got in pretty quickly. We came in sweats and sweatshirt but it's a little more upscale than your average breakfast/brunch place. Our server was attentive and practiced his English with us. The restaurant has a nice ambiance, clean, zen... the food was delicious! The servings are pretty big so come hungry! They offer pan Dulce or a pastry if you order coffee. Which we did. I had the enfrijoladas, my neice had the omelette Azteca. I ordered café de olla but our server suggested the pumpkin spice latte which is my fav and was absolutely delicious! We had to take our food to go bc it was so much yumminess to leave behind.

    I love El Yogurt Place! I went here for the first time last month, and I just HAD to come back when…read morewe were back in town - and not just for the gatito! :) If you haven't been before, it is near the coastline in Playas de Tijuana. There's parking around the corner, but if it's busy, it'll be hard to grab a spot. Worth looking around for parking though! We went on a busy Sunday morning where we waited about 25 minutes, which was not a problem because there was plenty of wait seating and the store to keep you busy! Every seat is met with exquisite natural lighting, and we were seated next to a window, so it was even more bright! The restaurant itself is very home-like, bringing bright colors with dark wood details all around. There's also a cute fountain outside, and a shop cat to keep you company (el gatito!!). The menu is large with many options, and as you can see, it's a little bit on the pricer side for the area. However, I'll argue that it's well worth the money! When we were seated, we got the complimentary toast with butter and pumpkin jam, which is always a treat! We ordered a few mains for our family: chilaquiles, huevos rancheros, enchiladas and French toast (see photos). All were made with love and tasted homemade! The best part - and the reason why I begged to come back was for the fruit salad with frozen yogurt ice cream! DO NOT SKIP THIS!!! It is the BEST thing on the menu! I'll always bring them my business when I come to TJ!
