"Nos tocó un ambiente tranquilo, el servicio excelente aunque sólo había una mesera y andaba un poco apurada por atender a los comensales, considero que podría ser insuficiente en caso de que se encontraran más mesas ocupadas, hay un detalle con los chilaquiles el sabor era muy bueno sin embargo estaban demasiado picosos, incluso otro de los comensales también lo comentó.. un poco de sal en los frijoles podría mejorar el sabor de los mismos. Y creo que podrían evitar utilizar loza que no se encuentre en buenas condiciones. (Mi taza estaba quebrada) . Nada que no se pueda remediar puedo darle una segunda oportunidad para probar otros platillos distintos."

"Everything was delicious and the vibes were amazing. Best chilaquiles I’ve had, taste homemade. Nothing in the states can touch this. Everything is made with natural ingredients you can tell. 10/10 recommend to anyone visiting Mexicali."

"Some of the best chilaquiles I’ve had. Great service too. Tyron was my waiter and he was great. His English was good too which made things easier for a güero. Algunos de los mejores chilaquiles que he probado. El servicio también es excelente. Tyron fue mi camarero y fue genial. Además, hablaba bien inglés, lo que facilitó las cosas para un güero."

"I was undecided between Mexican and Street food. And this place definitely hits the right spot. Family got some chilaquiles and I got seduced by the Quesabirria tacos. A Quick Look at their Instagram page will give you a hint of what I’m talking about @lolacocinaurbana. My only regret is not having a bigger stomach to keep tasting the food. Definitely will be coming back, and if you have not done it already, what a re you waiting to give it a try!"

"Some of the best food I’ve ever had. The presentation was wonderful and the food was exquisite. We ate there twice due to it being right next to the hotel we were staying at. We had breakfast the first time and lunch the second time. Both were amazing. My husband and I both tried the Chilaquiles for breakfast. They gave us free cake that was absolutely amazing. For lunch I tried the chimichanga and my husband had the quesobirria tacos. Honestly I think I liked lunch the best but both were absolutely amazing and the staff is nice and the kitchen prepares the food quickly. I unfortunately only have pictures of our breakfast since my phone was dead during lunch. We also started eating before I could snap a pic it looked so good we couldn’t resist!"
