    We visited Cafecito for breakfast, which is located on near Southside in the medical district. There is some road construction going on, but we found parking in the back fairly easy. My goodness, upon entry, you are engulfed in the pink theme and catcai patio area. We arrived early, around 9ish, and there was a good bit of folks and a steady stream of people coming in while we were there. They have some swamp coolers outside to keep it cool, and they were quite efficient. We had to change tables due to the force of the air coming out. Our server, Pedro, was friendly and attentive to our questions concerning the menu. We started out with Pan Dulce Basket, which contained Concha, Cuernito, Oreja, and Maranito. What a treat they were! Warm and fresh, full of flavor without being overly sweet. These would be worth the trip every time. For our meal, we had Chilaquiles, Concha French Toast, and Breakfast Tacos with pink homemade tortillas which I felt could have been a touch warmer an a little thick, overall the food was delicious, and the patio experience was awesome, to put it mildly. We had Vanilla and Abuelita's iced lattes with the meal. The parking is always tight in this area, so best to arrive early or enjoy walking the Magnolia area. It's pricey but worth it, especially if you enjoy authentic Mexican food with some creativity blended into the dishes.

    Cafecito is such a great place to enjoy breakfast! Their café de olla is SO good--I can almost taste it just thinking about it! And don't forget to grab one of their delicious conchas. We had the chorizo burritos with their spicy red sauce, which are definitely a kids' favorite, and the eggs and potatoes with their green sauce, which are my husband's favorite, and ofcourse, their famous pink tacos The new location is beautiful and decorated so nicely with their signature pink theme. Everything feels welcoming and clean, and the restroom is always spotless. The staff is also super friendly and helpful. Definitely a place we enjoy coming back to for a delicious breakfast!

    Super cute spot in Fort Worth! The service is great. I sat at the bar and got to see all the drinks being made. The food is decent, green salsa helps add some flavor to everything. I enjoyed the Picosa Y Peligrosa. The coffee drinks looked delicious. Recommend the queso!

    Parking is limited so park in front on the street or in the back of the building. When we got there, they were kinda busy on a Sunday around 11 o'clock. There was a 20 minute wait and they only give you a five minute grace period to show up I was two minutes late. They gave my table. The Host gave us the next available table, which only took a few minutes so be very prompt when they text you your table is ready. We started off with the Michelada and a cafecito martini. I had there huevos con jamón. And the Chilaquiles con barbacoa, and the friend had their Menudo, and he said it was delicious.

    First time at the newer location. Attending a graduation nearby, we had some time to stop in for breakfast, and I'm so glad we did! The service was sweet and welcoming, and we thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. The cutest pink spot! We'll definitely be back next time we're in the area.

    I went here for lunch and it did not disappoint. The drinks were perfect, and all of the food was top notch. We ordered two different flavors of tacos to share so we could have the best of both worlds. This place fills up quick and luckily we were able to sit at the bar to get a seat and not have to wait a long time. If you are coming out on the weekend, expect a little bit of a wait or plan ahead. There is parking behind the restaurant, but it fills up quickly.

    Great service & food yet again. Bar seating was full but I was able to get a small table and was in & out within 30 minutes. (There were a couple larger parties waiting). Brisket tacos are always a great choice when short on time and you want delicious food! Refried beans were pipping hot and good. Love the hot sauce - a little of both the green & red is my favorite way to eat it! Friendly & attentive service!

    I was pleasantly surprised when I had the food at Cafecito. I wasn't expecting too much from the taste because it's a cute trendy spot, but I was glad that food actually tasted pretty good. The customer service was also on point.

    Chilaquiles topped with green salsa, two eggs over medium and a side of barbacoa

    Our first time here and it won't be the last. Coffee and pan was spot on for a chilly Saturday morning. Main breakfast dish was Chilaquiles topped with green salsa, two eggs over medium and a side of barbacoa. Server was very attentive to our needs and took the time to make sure our first visit was perfect. Traditional Mexican vibe with a girl twist to it but really blends in with the location.

    What a cute place! I'm so glad my friend recommended. The food was great and so was the service. I wish I lived local so I could try out other dishes.

    concha with orange juice
    Erica V.

    Loved the ambience here. It was girly inside. Only con was it was a little warm inside as if the ac wasn't working or it wasn't turned on yet. We got there around 10. There's no WiFi so cell service was a little slow. But the food kept us busy. The tacos were so good. The migas were a hit with my father. Plate was cleaned. My daughter loved the concha. Very soft and fluffy. Would come back!

The service is great, and the Chicano art painted throughout the restaurant gives the whole place such a cool, authentic vibe. We always share the combo because you get a little bit of everything, and trust me, it will definitely fill you up. Seriously, get it. This is our number one taco spot in DFW, and after your first visit, it might be yours too.

We shared a bottle of California Sauvignon Blanc to accompany the Ceviche Tatemado followed by the Tacos de Barbacoa which is the Tuesday lunch special. Both the ceviche and barbacoa tacos were just so enjoyable. The striped bass and octopus ceviche here is a unique preparation that sings in the tangy lime and Serrano vinaigrette in which it is prepared. The barbacoa is so flavorful and tender; and the thin, house made flour tortilla is fried crispy on the flat top before being filled. So good.

You walk up to order, grab a seat, and wait for your buzzer to go off. One thing to note: if you order drinks, keep an eye out for them because they're not brought to your table. As for my meal, I tried the mushroom, shrimp, and pastor tacos. The pastor was underwhelming, and the shrimp was overcooked. The mushroom taco was easily the standout and will definitely be my go-to if I come back. The weather will soon be nice for enjoying the patio, but there's also plenty of indoor seating available.
