Amazing food and service inside a beautiful cafe! The Chilaquiles were the best in the valley by far!

Food ( asada fries, huevos rancheros, Chile Quiles) were amazing and tasted very well, and they strawberry lemonade was to die for.The restaurant was a little busy but they were very fast to seat us and ask what we wanted to drink and eat in a good time. They food came out very dry fast, fast then I am usually used to. They where playing very nice music that fit there vibe perfectly. Overall experience was great and the service was amazing! read more

Oh my gatos was this place amazing. The music really makes you ponder or dance . Also their French toast was so beautiful like Picasso made it. Also who's the chef that food was bomb. 10/10 pull up. The service was great everyone was so sweet and funny. The big boss even switched the music to Karol g when we asked. What great people. Wish I could take a pic of the food but I ate it as soon as it hit the table. read more

Today we finally made it in for table service! We usually stop by to pick up churros to enjoy at home, but we were up early and decided to have breakfast at the restaurant instead. There's plenty of parking in the back, plus a few street parking spots in front. If you park in the back, just make your way around to the front entrance. It was busy when we arrived, and they told us the wait would be about 20-25 minutes. I think we were seated in about 15, and my kiddo had fun hanging out in the little library while we waited. Once we were seated, we ordered our food, and the entire staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive. They checked on us throughout the meal, and we ended up finishing everything! The food is amazing, but the drinks deserve their own shoutout. We ordered the Agua de Piña, iced horchata, café de olla, and a regular coffee, and every single one was delicious. We'll definitely be back to try the burritos and asada fries. Oh, and of course we couldn't leave without ordering churros to go! read more

We just celebrated my mom's birthday here and it was such a wonderful experience! We had a party of 16, and every single person in our group was happy with their meal. The food was absolutely delicious--everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. What really stood out was the amazing service. The staff was so attentive from beginning to end and truly made us feel like family. They checked on us often, made sure we had everything we needed, and helped make my mom's birthday extra special. If you're looking for great food and outstanding customer service, I highly recommend this restaurant. We'll definitely be back! read more

My friend suggested I try this place out. I'm so glad I did. It was a beautiful morning and although the restaurant inside had a lot of charm there was patio seating. The staff were friendly and the service was 10 out of 10! Very attentive. The BEST part was the food and drinks! Another 10 out of 10! My friends and I tried a burrito, torta and their famous Chilaquiles, EVERYTHING was delicious! This place is a hidden treasure! You won't be disappointed. My friends and I will be back to try other items on the menu. Can't wait! read more

I have heard a lot about this Cafe de la Abuela and wanted to give this place a try. Today was my first time going there, but definitely not the last. When I walked in, I noticed how well all the employees were with their customers and how chill the ambiance was. It has outdoor and indoor seating. The place was very clean and medium sized. Very quaint and beautiful. I chose to sit inside since it was hot on the patio. Destiny was my server and she came to take my order. I ordered french toast topped with berries and lots of whipped cream. I also got their medium size Iced Cold Frappe Cafe De Olla. Got a nicely sized breakfast burrito and asked for the bacon to be very crispy. Destiny brought out my food fast and quick. 10/10. Food was delicious, bacon was nicely crisped and they have a great sized parking lot shared with other businesses. They also do pick up/delivery/catering and 3rd party orders! Thank you Destiny and Cafe De La Abuela! read more

My wife and I came to have breakfast here because I saw their social media video and mention it to my wife. This place has a private parking lot in the back that is shared with other businesses or you can do street parking. We did the street parking across the street. When we came, they were busy but not too bad. They let us choose if we wanted indoor or outdoor seating and my wife chose outdoor. I got the breakfast burrito with bacon and my wife got the chilaquiles with red sauce and green sauce. For my drink, I got a cola in a glass bottle and my wife got her cafe de olla. Our food came out quick, like right after our waiter came back with our drinks. The problem if you sit outside is the flies so be aware. I thought the burrito was okay and their sauce was mild in term of spicy. My wife like her chilaquiles and cafe de olla too. She finished her dish but I barely ate my food since our daughter started to cry. I asked for a to go box and extra sauce, they give me three cups of the sauce which was very generous. read more

They didn't have churros when i went and that's what i wanted the most. Settled for just an horchata- didn't have that much flavor to it. Was mostly just milk. Overcrowded and noisy. read more

Came here with a friend last Sunday. My overall impression was mediocre. To start it is pretty popular and there was a lot of people waiting and we were sat quickly considering. That being said the service is not the greatest. We ordered their Chilaquiles, green ones with Carne and I have to say they were tasty but that's all that was tasty. Their coffee is the worst I've ever had anywhere and the lattes are super sweet. You're not really getting coffee you're getting more of a dessert drink. When we paid, the server didn't give us an option to leave a tip she just took our bill and we pretty much were asked to leave since they continued to come and ask us if we were done. I don't think I I'll visit again. read more

Cafe de la Abuela - Divorciados Carne Asada Chilaquiles and Cali Burrito - Cafes Near Me - San Fernando, California

I hate having to give a lower rating came in yesterday because I wanted coffee for my self and my mom since it was a chilly day. My mom only drinks decaf coffee for health reasons. We ordered and were told while waiting for our drinks they were all out of decaf. Had to go back to the counter for my refund, I asked if we can switch to another item and tried getting a agua Fresca. There's a list of I believe 5 in the menu. Staff told us some are season, but for sure had the top 3 so my mom chose one. He came back to tell us they didnt have it either. We ended up getting strawberry lemonade, but weren't even upgraded to a larger size or anything I'll have to stay away for a while read more

I must try. If you're into chilaquiles. I had a divorciado with Stack, and I keep hearing about horchata coffee. I also tried it. I had it with the café, canela. Not bad. Be careful. It's sugar as for more ice but let me tell you the place it was packed with people, but we were still acknowledge for how long time would be very attended to as well. We were there Heidi recommend the place. read more

I remember this spot when it used to be Horchatería Río Luna, so it was nice to come back and see it now as Café de la Abuela while still keeping those Latino vibes. The first time I tried their food was when my friend ordered the chilaquiles and honestly, they were amazing and left a great impression, which made me want to return for breakfast. Today I stopped by a bit later in the day (around closing time), so the kitchen was already closed. We only got drinks an iced café de olla and a hot one. Both were good, but I felt like the flavor wasn't as strong as the first time I tried it, possibly because it was the end of the day and things were winding down. Overall, I still really like the place and want to come back earlier next time to properly try their breakfast menu since everything I saw looked really good. read more

Excellent service, my son and I arrived early in the morning. We were greeted at the door and seated right away. Destiny our waitress provided professional service and answered all our questions. My son ordered the green salsa chilaquiles topped with over easy eggs and carne asada. The tortilla chips were nicely crunchy, salsa was perfect flavor, not too spicy just right. Topped with cheese and sliced red onions. Very filling. I decided to go with the French toast, topped with powdered sugar, blueberries and strawberries. You didn't need to add any more. I had the café de olla and it was so good, perfect in sweetness! My son order the frappe cafe de olla and he loved it! Definitely will be back to this Family owned business! read more

Great tasting Abuela's Hot Chocolate. read more

Cafe de la Abuela - Chandelier - Cafes Near Me - San Fernando, California

Overhyped for sure!! Social media made this place famous, but real ones know this place as the horchateria spot. Cafe de la Abuela is basically a rebrand of that same place so that they can sell food. Yes, it is the same owners, and yes, they sell some of their old horchata items from their horcheteria days. They basically wanted to sell food and rebranded the entire model in order to do so. That being said, service is the same; literally some of the same staff is still there. If you order drinks, they will call your name and hand them to you on the side window like they used to do. The main difference is just the food that they now bring to you. But once they bring it to you, you no longer matter. The place is extremely small, and it gets crowded fast, and there's no way to eat in peace here. The line will have it wrapped around the little tables they do have, making your dining experience a bad one. As for the food, I got the Cali burrito; it was alright. The chicken itself was tasteless; if it was not for their green salsa, which was really good, I would not have enjoyed it very much. The crispy chicken was just that ....crispy... and tasteless. Pretty huge let down. I wanted to try the food based on the hype, but nah, no bueno. At least I got myself my usual cafe de olla I used to get from the horchateria. Tastes the same, so that's a plus! Hooray! read more

We came to Cafe de Abuela for breakfast, but they were so flexible that I ended up ordering from the lunch menu. I had two gorditas--one asada and one papa con chorizo--and both were delicious. My husband ordered several sides since he's watching his calories, and my daughter loved the waffle and regular horchata. I also tried a hot latte with a pump of sugar-free vanilla, which was the perfect complement to the meal. The service was superb, and the ambiance was absolutely charming. The space is beautifully decorated with vintage mirrors, pink floral accents, and thoughtful details that make it feel warm and inviting. We would definitely come back and look forward to trying more of the menu! read more

Tried this spot for the first time, I ordered the chilaquiles which I really enjoyed, chips were crispy & the green salsa was delicious not to spicy how I like. I ordered an horchata and it was the sweetness was perfect. My boyfriend ordered Huevos Mexicanos I believe they were called on the menu, but he cleaned his whole plate clean lol safe to say he liked it. He also got a hot Spanish latte and it was so tasty. Service was great, the ladies were fast & made sure we were ok through our visit here for breakfast. Ambiance all around is chill. We would definitely come back again. read more

Visiting the inlaws and we were looking for some brunch. Yelped this place and it did not disappoint. My wife got the chilequiles and I got the asada fries. Both were very flavorful. I really liked the churros. Soft and chewy on the inside and crisp on the outside. They were very busy for a Monday morning. The staff were very friendly and the service was pretty quick for how busy they were. The interior is really cute and I like the plaza they are in. read more

Delicious and amazing customer service. I want to come here everytime I visit the San Fernando Valley. This retaurant use to sell Churros and Coffee only, but expanded to delicious food. The inside of the restaurant was beautifully decorated, and very clean. Also the customer service was amazing. For me the star of the show was the horchata steamer. I can't have too much caffeine, so this was perfect. I also ordered the chilaquiles with carne asada with the mixed salsa (green and red). My husband got the carne asada fries which were also delicious. We finished our meal with some churros that were fresh, warm, and a good blend of crunchy and chewy! I will be back again! read more

I was meeting a friend here. I parked in the back and I found the place right away. But I wasn't sure how to or where to order. It was very busy and very hot. A gentleman guided my to the counter and we ordered our food. I ordered the BLT with a side of guacamole and my friend ordered a breakfast burrito. To drink I got a matcha lemonade and my friend got an horchata latte. The inside dining area was very packed so we decided to sit outside. BLT was good. The fries were hot and crispy. I just wish they were salted. My friend really enjoyed her breakfast burrito. She didn't care for the green and red chips though. Salsa and guacamole had really good flavor. Staff was very nice. The place is really easy to find with plenty of parking in the back. Not sure if it's always this crowded but I do want to come back and hopefully get a seat inside. I've heard good things of their chilaquilles. read more

My girlfriend and I stopped in to Cafe de la Abuela on Friday morning, just a few minutes after they opened. There were already 10 people in line. One inside, you are immediately welcomed in a family-friendly cafe, with a light, bright interior, some smooth classic oldies that would make Art Leboe proud dancing through the speakers, and many wonderfully warm friendly faces helping serve up some outstanding Mexican food and drinks in the heart of San Fernando. You order at the counter, with a great staff member helping assist table seating in either the indoor or outdoor patio areas. For drinks, I went with the hot Horchata Steamer, while my girlfriend opted for the Iced Cafe De Olla. The drinks were outstanding. Each made fresh and containing some authentic ingredients that made each sip better than the last. For entrees, I opted for the Breakfast Burrito with Chilaquiles while my girlfriend went with the Carne Asada Chilaquiles. Once we received our meals in the now-full and bustling restaurant, we were both immediately wowed by the vibrant colors and fresh ingredients. After a few bites, we were hooked. The breakfast burrito was large and delicious. Perfectly toasted, the inside crispy and gooey chilaquiles were wonderfully seasoned, with a a touch of heat and simply, awesome. The carne asada was easily once of the best I have tasted. My girlfriend said she hadn't experienced that quality of flavor and seasoning for years. It was tender, packed full of rich flavor and a great accompaniment to the chilaquiles she ordered. My experience at Cafe de la Abuela was simply five-star. The team works hard to prepare some outstanding food and drinks that would make any grandmother proud. I want to come back in the afternoon and evening hours to try some of their homemade sandwiches and churros. Lots of free parking in back and throughout this area of San Fernando. Separate shared bathroom space with other vendors in this retail area. read more

Cafe de la Abuela was the perfect spot for authentic Mexican food. It truly brought me back to when my Abuela would make these kinds of dishes. I ordered the carne asada with a side of chilaquiles verde, and every bite was absolutely delicious and mouthwatering. You can taste the homemade love in every single bite. To top it off, I got a café de olla frappe something I've never had before and wow, this is the place to try it. It was so good it was hard not to drink it all before I even finished my food. This place is a gem, and I can't wait to come back! read more

Went here this past Saturday with my family to celebrate my birthday. I came across this little gem on Instagram and I automatically wanted to try it because I was craving some authentic Mexican Cafe de Olla and some chilaquiles. 10/10 both were delicious. The only downside is that I was hoping to have the coffee in a ceramic mug, but instead it was served on a disposable cup. My family tried the abuela's breakfast, kids French toast, torta de chilaquiles, huevos rancheros and everyone loved everything. The service was wonderful. The waiters kept coming asking if we needed anything and checking on us multiple times. Everyone was very nice. We sat outside and it was a nice morning so the ambience was such a vibe. I will definitely be coming back and hopefully sitting inside to see what the vibe is there. Overall 10/10 recommend coming here. read more
