    We have been coming to Ayala's for years! The family owned restaurant has the nicest staff in all of Hempstead! And there isn't a single thing we've had that we didn't love! Their breakfast tacos are top notch! And now they have a coffee bar which makes this place perfection! I love that they have remolded and it just looks better and better!

    Must stop in great place friendly people. Best home made food on the road. My son had the beef tacos I had the shrimp.

    Small selection with the buffet, but everything is super yummy. Definitely worth checking out.

    We had the best experience here yesterday. We were accidentally sat by an enormous 50 top and they…read morewere so loud (a lot of toddlers and teens mixed at the table by us, literally screaming and hopping around). My husband asked to be reseated and the hostess was so sweet and apologetic. She made us feel way comfortable about the move and then we also had a delightful server Marissa. The food was great and our guest who'd never been to LT had a great meal. TY to the staff who were very nice and hospitable. Not a lot of welcoming atmospheres in large restaurants these days. It was a great lunch and a super turn around for a rough start. Also it was hard to find your location bc the yelp address is wrong. Someone at corporate needs to google houston. Maybe ask for local help bc I didn't see this location on google either. That's a bad mistake bc people are driving thru and missing this location!! The only reason 4 stars is to get corporate moving on the address change. The map address you have is in Hempstead. That's FAR from cypress. I was actually afraid the location was closed where you are. Not a fun drive (30 min) hoping the restaurant is actually open. Marissa and the local staff are A++++ even the chef came out to check our food was good (love the brunch items!)

    Here is a draft for your Yelp review, keeping it direct, clear, and impactful:…read more | Worst service we've encountered anywhere in a very long time. We used to come to Lupe Tortilla every single Sunday after church, and we always loved having Abigail--she was the absolute best. Unfortunately, after today, we are not sure we will ever be back. We were seated at the bar, and Mariana was our server. We sat there forever before she even acknowledged our existence. It took an absolute age just to get water, and even longer to get our drinks. She completely ignored us the entire time and simply wouldn't respond. We never even received menus or chips from her; we ultimately had to get up and grab our own menus. Finally, we flagged down a random, helpful server just to place our order. We asked if a particular item could be split onto two plates. Even though we have done this here before, we were told no and that we'd have to do it ourselves. When the food arrived, we asked for an extra plate to split it. We never got it, so we had to get up and hunt down a plate ourselves. Extremely disappointing downfall for a place we used to love. If you go, pray you don't get stuck at the bar with Mariana.
