    we were wanting to try a new chilaquiles place & it did not disappoint. we came here during lunch time on a Friday afternoon and there were not that many people. we ordered the verde and rojo chilaquiles and they were both so good! you order at the counter & they bring you your food to your table. we got our food pretty quickly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]the vibe & decorations inside were very trendy![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Food: all parties tried the chilaquiles 3 green 1 red. They do provide you with plenty of chips so it's a good amount of chilaquiles. My myself, I rather have them baked or at least softer than the new way of serving them but they were still good. They were good for those who can't eat super spicy food as they have a very little kick to them. It came a black beans and half of an avocado. We also ordered the fresas on crema pancakes, a little too much crema for us and they are a good size. Service: it was good. Food did not take long, we had a young gentleman who was very nice and would check on our table often. Ambiance: decor is cute. They have the old school tables from Juarez in some tables. Brought back memories for me when I was a kid. Not super packed. Not sure I would return as they mostly focus on chilaquiles and not my style. Try it out.

    I decided to try out the taco place where Mooyah Burgers used to be on Mesa. Since I try tacos anywhere I can, I was interested to see how they tasted here. Well, let me say I was impressed. You need to try the tacos here. You will be pleased and impressed. The shells are crunchy and warmed up. Then the salsas to choose from are spicy but good. This restaurant will be on my to eat list. There isn't rice or beans, but the chips are a good appetizer. This place needs to be on your list of Mexican restaurants. Then the owner is very well coming.

    good morning El Paso!

    Top notch experience! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is so bright and welcoming![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A perfect way to start your day! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean, well lit, ample seating, menus displayed and friendly staff![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They even let me take pictures of my MexiMosa on the bar! The food- let's chat, pay attention to the fire because let me tell you their plates pack a punch! The chilaquiles verdes were sensational and flavor filled, spicy! The churro French toast was perfectly covered in churro sugar on both sides, toasted so well with a crunch and that gooey middle. The MeximOsa was a delight and the aguas frescas were a treat. I will definitely be back for another brunch date.

    Flautas de Carnitas sauced in green chile creme

    My first visit here and I am pleasantly surprised. The Menu is expansive from the traditional Mex fare to some creative dishes and even a few American breakfast items. I went with something different and creative, Flautas de Carnitas ahogadas en chile verde, shredded pork carnitas rolled in a corn tortilla and deep fried. Covered in a creamy green chile sauce with picked unions, crema fresca and jack cheese on top. WOW! You order at a counter and are given a number. Food is delivered to your table. The service was great. They ask patrons to not take or save tables until a you have a number. This is great. Those who do seat themselves before getting a number are politely asked to get back in the order line. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is very casual and family friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I look forward to coming back and try other items on the menu.

    Soapy coffee
    Bobbie Q.

    First they make you stand in line forever. Then the food is cold when you get it finally. The tostadas are hard, they forgot the cheese, I asked for more cream they didn't put but one splash and she told me I would be charged. The meat/carne asada was flavorless. Lastly we paid 40$ for 2 plates, NOT WORTH THE HYPE. Also their coffee was full of soap, It's traditional cafe de olla, i told The waitress And they could care less very sad.I DONT think we will be returning.

    Buen Dia Chilaquiles caught my eye with its vibrant sun and Spanish sign as I was heading to Black Friday's off Mesa Blvd. Created by the same owners as Crave, this cute breakfast spot introduces a fresh concept featuring a Mexican favorite - chilaquiles. After moving to El Paso, I fell in love with chilaquiles thanks to places like Don Chilaquil and Lucy's Cafe, each offering their own humble versions. Buen Dia presents a delightful Mexican brunch experience with a lively and social atmosphere, bright colors, music, and alcoholic beverages. They maintain the authenticity of down-home, savory chilaquiles, with a touch of sophistication, like the red pepper flakes in my dish. The menu may seem a bit pricey initially, with dishes ranging from $10 to $15, but it's worth it for the quality, just like Crave's offerings. I appreciate having diverse brunch options in El Paso, from Denny's to the more upscale yet accessible experience at Crave. With Buen Dia, the same concept extends to Mexican cuisine, offering a selection of tacos, burritos, and classic American breakfast dishes, alongside a weekend special of Pozole Verde. Buen Dia's menu is simple, focusing on their forte - breakfast foods. They are open every day from 8 am to 3 pm and extend their hours till 4 pm on weekends. The Carajillo drink was delightful, and I can't wait to try more of their offerings. The service was friendly and accommodating, allowing me to sample all the salsas before choosing my favorite, the Creamy Green. The salsas were outstanding, each with its own unique flavor and texture. I would have loved an option to add chili toreados to balance the acidity of the sauces and pickled onions with a savory umami kick. The drink choices were good, and it was a nice touch that water was not charged. Hot coffee came with refills, while the aqua frescas were served in large cups. I'm thrilled to see a concept like Buen Dia Chilaquiles in El Paso, and I believe it has the potential to become popular nationwide. It adds to the city's already amazing and unique brunch culture. I can't wait to visit again and try more from their menu. ~TODOELPASO

    The place is clean. I love the walk up counter approach. The menu is full of good-looking options. I tried the chilaquiles with the creamy green sauce and over-easy eggs as recommended to me by a friend, which was the right choice indeed. There are plenty of good drink options too, non-alcoholic and for adult fun. I can imagine this is a fun brunch place! My food came out quickly. The portion was hearty, more than I could eat really. They didn't skimp on the accoutrements either. The black beans on the side paired well with the heat of the chilaquiles. My eggs were cooked to my liking. Enjoyed a cold Topo Chico to wash it all down. Perfect lunch! I'm going to invite a friend and split some chilaquiles and the strawberry pancakes next time! Service was quick and friendly. I was greeted as soon as I walked though the door.

I had just flown in from the airport, and my brother arranged it as a special family gathering. Everything started normally: we were seated, ordered our food, received our drinks, and enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa. Then my sister (who is LGBTQ+) stepped away to use the restroom. When she returned and sat down, a manager approached our table and loudly told her--in front of other diners--that "MEN cannot use the female restroom." My sister was mortified and humiliated by the public confrontation. The manager's tone and assumption were shocking and clearly discriminatory. We immediately got up and left without eating. This wasn't about enforcing any legitimate policy; it was rude, insensitive, and targeted. My adult sister is perfectly capable of reading the restroom signs herself--no one needed to police or shame her in such a way. The incident felt rooted in homophobia and transphobia from management. We will never return to this place, and we will actively discourage others--especially LGBTQ+ individuals and allies--from patronizing it. What should have been a joyful family milestone was ruined by bigotry. Avoid this establishment if you value respect and inclusivity.

Unfortunately, that loyalty came to an end after a recent experience that was both disappointing and unacceptable. My family and I chose this restaurant to celebrate a birthday. Every guest paid separately, and there were no issues during the evening itself. However, as the event concluded, multiple attendees, including family members and in-laws, overheard servers making derogatory comments about our party. Among the remarks were that we were "ungrateful," "cheap," and "broke," along with other inappropriate comments that no customer should ever have to hear. I brought the matter to the attention of ownership, hoping for a meaningful resolution. While I was told the employees had been reprimanded, the proposed remedy was a $25 gift card. After nearly 18 years of patronage, the response felt dismissive and only added insult to injury. What disappoints me most is not simply the behavior of the staff, but the lack of accountability and concern shown afterward. This was a place I once considered a reliable and welcoming destination for family gatherings and celebrations. Sadly, that trust has been lost. As a result, I will no longer be returning or recommending this establishment to friends, family, or colleagues. Respect for customers should be a fundamental part of any hospitality business, and in this case, that standard was not met.
