My bf found this restaurant on maps while searching for something to eat. At first, we were confused because maps took us to a Jack in the Box, but I figured it might be located near the shopping center behind the Jack in the Box....Read More

When I saw green chile, specifically “Hatch”, I knew I had to order something with “that” in it. I was torn between a few options but settled on the Mexicali Scramble. So yummy with the chorizo scrambled up. I took the option for a pancake...Read More

I've enjoyed the food every single time I've been there. Servers are always friendly. Chili Cheese Omelet. One of my favorites.

Dine inLunch$10–20Atmosphere: 4Somewhat difficult to find parkingFree parking lotDepending on the day the parking in the shopping center can get really crowded and a lot of the spots are narrow so often times people are parked over the lines basically taking up 2 spots. So you might want to get there a little early in order to find a good spot.
