    We had a great lunch and the restaurant is really cute. Great food, coffees and deserts. I had the Machaca burritos with rice and beans and my friend had the tuna sandwich with minestrone soup. Both were really good. The salsa with the chips is delicious. The service is fantastic.

    Lovely place, inside and outside seating. Ordered a cafe de la olla with Chilaquiles de Mole Oaxaqueño. Tasty coffee but too sweet, ask for half regular coffee. Chilaquiles were delicious, came with beans and potatoes.

    A pretty spot with a nice ambiance for a date or a coffee. I was promptly seated and ordered a pitcher of strawberry lemonade for the table, though there was a variety of drinks available. Despite the restaurant being empty, a group was seated in the booth next to us, causing discomfort as their belongings touched ours and they constantly looked over at our party. While this behavior wasn't the restaurant's fault, the seating arrangement certainly was. We were given chips and salsa. The chips started stale but the salsa was great. The food was underwhelming: the rice was hard, the mole was mediocre, and the sopa azteca was unimpressive. The sopa de tortilla, however, was excellent. When it came time for dessert, I was disappointed to find that, despite an extensive dessert menu, only the options I disliked were available.

    First, I would say the service is eh. They need to update the whole waitlist. Maybe even try to go digital, and add phone numbers to contact us when the table is ready? Felt there were some discrepancies because some people who barely arrived and asked about the wait times somehow got sat immediately. How are you sure the people you call are the actual people? There were numerous times when someone's name gets called and no one responds, but the people who suddenly arrive say that they are them. Getting sat down once you are called and ordering was quick, but getting the check took a while. TIP: Make sure to look at the digital menu while waiting to get seated. I was disappointed with the Birria Chilaquiles. Felt like it was missing something I just can't pinpoint it. Mango soda was pretty good just make sure to give it a good swirl. Overall okay experience, the vibe was just ruined with the whole waitlist and service. I expected a little more than I should have.

    Nice little spot my omelette and toast were on point with lots of flavor. Their salsas area also really good my wife had a great juice that no pic was taken of and it was really good. Service was good and place is very nice and classy. They have a variety of things from crepes to pancakes and steak but have not tried them. Can't wait to return and explore the menu.

    Came here to have breakfast and I honestly loved it! The food was absolutely amazing I would go back all the time if I could. I really liked the vibe I thought it looked like a cute coffee shop and when we asked for directions the waiters were extremely helpful. Overall I definitely think this place is worth a try!

    Great service and a big menu to choose from, we got seated outdoors and it was very nice and spacious. Our party of 12 was serviced quickly and the staff was attentive

    The food was great and the service was excellent. Only complaint was they sat us by the door which kept opening and it was freezing. I had the chile relleno and my girlfriend got the chicken enchiladas. Would love to come back for breakfast.

    I went to one near Otay last time. This one was just as busy. The hostess said it was a 15 minutes wait. We walked around for a few minutes and came back when my name was called. I had the cappuccino and just the fruit salad. It was great. Jackie had a regular salad and cake. Both were good.

    What an experience, the food was very good but the deserts were even better , I don't think I've ever had a Nutella/ strawberry and chocolate crepe as food as the one I had here , it was just absolutely perfect, very good I've never had one this good, the coffee de la flor was just as good, full of flavor and just delicious. The service was attentive, fast and very courteous. Do yourself a favor and come eat here , the line is long but very fast , totally worth it .

    Cleanliness: 5 Ambience: 5 Parking : 4 (paid) Menu selection: 5 Food quality: 5 Prices: 3 Service: 2 Seating comfort: 4 Restrooms: 3 This restaurant is located in the shopping center next to the movie theater. During peak times it can be quite crowded. They do offer a wide variety of foods on their menu; everything for Mexican antojitos, sandwiches (bagels, paninis, tortas, club), to pastas, salads, crepes, soups, nachos, wings, etc. They also offer a breakfast menu. They have a wide variety of drinks. Everything from soft drinks, teas, lemonade, wine, and other alcohol. The ambience is classy. The place is well decorated, suitable for small groups, families, business meetings, or even a date night. Everything I saw was very clean. The food is very good, but the service is slow. They managed to mess up both my order and my friend's. My pasta was missing the chicken, so I had to send it back for them to add the chicken. Instead of a crêpe, my friend was delivered a torta which also had to be sent back. We were short on time, and their lack of efficiency cost us another half an hour. I am hoping that was an anomaly and not the norm. It was very hard to get the attention of our server when we needed him. I did enjoy the food once I got it. But I was so hungry by then I probably would've been happy with just about anything. The prices are fair for the kind of restaurant it is. I would consider giving them another chance and trust for better service.

    We came here to have lunch one weekend. The drive was not far from our hotel, and we found parking along the street. This cafe is clean, nicely decorated, and quite charming. The other patrons were well dressed and nice folks. The host and the waiters were friendly and very attentive. We were shown to our table almost immediately. Our waiter wasted no time in getting out drinks while we perused the menu. To start off, I went with a tortilla soup. The soup was delicious, and amazingly well made. This was a good intro to what was to come: my enchilada dish. The food was a firestorm of flavor, and left me very satisfied but not comatose. The agua fresca that I ordered was flavorful, and not something that would give me a sugar crash afterward. I was very impressed by this cafe. It is now in my radar for my next trip to baja. If you're looking for a great meal in a charming locale, this cafe is definitely recommended. Give em a try!

Unfortunately we have had to go visit more often over the past two weeks than we have liked but the staff has kept us at ease and made us feel comfortable. The hospital rooms were nice and fully updated with the newest technology (even a bed that will warn the staff when the patient gets up), ER has been extremely busy but the staff does their best to get you in and out as quickly as possible, and the urgent care is the same. This location has an extensive break room vending machine with a wide variety of drinks, snacks, and food options and they are very reasonably priced too. They also have a very nice cafeteria but it is only open during certain times throughout the day. Parking can be tough during the day but there are options (like free valet if you need). It's a great facility but what keeps us coming back is the staff!!!

Of the day as that's all it seems they prep for... 4:30-6:30pm is only mornings leftovers.. As I have came down 20 minutes after opening and stuff advertised is out and staff will say we ran out in morning. So many times this happens. So frustrating. Nothing is made new for pm shift, NOTHING. And now they have decreased their grill time again, even making it more disappointing to stop in cafeteria as 3 days a week now- NO GRILL!! only a handful Of grab and go items overly cooked and left under heated lamps for unknown hours. So all that's left is gross Pizza and salad bar is empty. What kind of option is this?? DO NOT RECOMMEND. GO GRAB FOOD anywhere else..

The Horchata Latté tasted like semi-sweet milk and the Caramel Latté was just okay, I would appreciate a more coffee-forward drink but I'm unsure if they use espresso in their drinks (or maybe they're single shots?). I had high hopes for these drinks since they are new additions (I thought maybe this restaurant stepped up their coffee game) but I would have preferred sticking with their Mexican Mocha, which although is still not very coffee forward is nonetheless a delicious drink. The pictures I've included show some of my favorite meals here. The Poblano Chilaquilles are a 10/10 and a staple for whenever I visit with family or friends. It's very savory and goes perfectly with over-medium eggs. If you prefer spicier Chilaquilles, this is not for you (these are savory without a hint of spice!). The Cali Omelette is all you could want from an omelette and HUGE! Unfortunately the sourdough bread was stale this visit. Potatoes are seasoned well and complements the meal. The Dulce De Leche French Toast is perfect for sharing and for those with a sweet tooth. It was the perfect finish to my party's meal. The Farmers Table gets a 10/10 for ambiance, but the service has generally been lacking for the 5-8 visits I've made. I feel as if the servers are not very attentive and I find myself waiting for the check or even to be checked on to see if my experience is going well. I actually would have loved to comment on the lattes I ordered (which again, were disappointing). The food is always great though, and despite the lacking service (which I've observed is likely due to the large amount of guests vs the couple of servers on duty attending to everyone), I always find myself coming back for more! Essentially, PLEASE order the Poblano Chilaquilles and PLEASE get your coffee elsewhere! I think a revamp on the coffee is much needed (much rather get my coffee and breakfast fix together!).

We were told that the clam chowder was good which we tried and yes it's good but they don't always have it. There are 3 types of soup and they rotate them. Chicken noodle is the least desirable. There is no ambiance really being that it's in the hospital, it is clean, spacious with lots of places to sit. Same as there is no service really, you just walked around, put the food that you want on the tray and go line up to pay. But it's a nice place to have. On weekends, they only have less then half the selection that they have on weekdays.
