The food was great! The tortillas seemed like they were freshly prepared in house. Everything was so fresh and tasty. The service was fantastic. The place is super clean and did not smell like Lysol. I would definitely stop there...Read More

Chilaquiles and breakfast burrito were both great. We had a white mocha as well. Great spot when in the Visitation Valley running errands. Excited to return to try the enchiladas, etc. YUM!

They didn't substitute my beans but everything else was amazing that's it's 5 stars all around. Their Mole Poblano saves you a plane ticket to Puebla, Mexico to try true authenticity. You don't have to go to Puebla, just be near Daly City and stop...Read More

Jose was very welcoming and gave us a great start on our SF Crosstown Trail walk! We sampled his Pastor and Agua Fresca and wish him all the best with this little cafe! Plenty of seating and a clean restroom too.
