    Tacos
    Kevin K.

    Best tacos on the south side. Tues offers a Taco Tues discount. Sirloin tacos are my favorite. Great flavors, all fresh and great service.

    We have gone to this restaurant and order pick up many times. Always had a great experience but today was totally unexpected behavior from an older woman with the name of Silvia. She said she was the manager. The moment we are standing to address an order to be taken automatically she said rudely. Van a ordenar si oh no ? Like so rude. Then when we ask for veggies and consomé for our pizzas birria she asked. "Ahora que quieren", like OMG who talks to consumers like that. The food was great but her service was so poor and her mean grumpy face wasn't helpful either, she never greeted us with a smile. For the $100 we spend on to go food her bosses need to make sure they know who they have in charge she be very friendly and not rude. There was a young man in the bar very helpful and another young lady too very sweet. But that older woman who claims to be in charge had. O customer service etiquette she needs to be trained to treat customers with respect. Today I regret spending my hard working money where I felt no welcoming and instead she was upset for asking for our salsa veggies and consomé that was missing with our to go order. She was an older lady, I asked and someone said her name is Silvia. She's a bit of bigger woman. If that helps describe who she is.

    Very delicious the food specially their menudo on Saturdays and Sunday's and the service is on point.

    Birria quesadilla or maybe it was called a quesabirria not sure but was tasty.

    Stopped by here after hiking in South Mountain. Its a sit down style restaurant but very casual. I ordered the wursobirria or basically a birria qesadilla. I have to admit it was pretty tasty. I really what I ordered but not sure about the rest of the menu. I think the birria is the specialty so maybe its the best thing to order.

    Cafe de olla and concha
    Jennifer G.

    The cafe de olla served with a concha on top is great. Great for a light breakfast. The service is good. Seated quickly and they take your drink order right away.

    Happy hour flatus, carne asada, and pork tacos on flour tortillas.

    Food was amazing, we went during happy hours and the drink, and food available during happy hour was amazing. Service was just as good if not better an extremely professional server that recommended different types of foods. Price was reasonable as well

    Birria Tacos
    Lorena R.

    I recognize that this restaurant is still kind of new but they've got a ways to go if they want customers to return and rave about their establishment. When we first arrived, it wasn't too busy. The available tables were all dirty. We waited our turn at the counter to order but we were delayed by the amount of customers coming up saying there were missing items from their ticket (missing a dish from the food that was already brought to the table or missing a beer, etc). I had to clean the table off that we sat at. We waited around 45 minutes for our food. While waiting, the tables next to us (2 total - 2 different families) had received their food and both tables had missing plates or wrong plate orders. I saw both of these tables have their family members wait quite a bit of time to eat their food as they were trying not to be rude and eat while waiting for the missing or correct plates (3 missing or wrong plate orders collectively between the two tables). They waited like 15 minutes for the food to come. Meanwhile the rest of their family had no choice than to eat it was taking so long. My husband got his food first. About 3 minutes later my mother in law's dish came out. Another 3 minutes and mine came out. 7 minutes passed and we were missing a dish. It took maybe 10 total minutes for my nephew to get his dish. My husband's chilaquiles divorciados were good but cold. My dish was cold. Not sure about the rest. My dish was about $16 but looked underwhelming with a little bit of rice and enough beans. My husbands was packed full. Serve your beans and rice last before putting it up on the expo. Keep the sides warmer. Not sure what kind of setting you have for those. Improve the rice recipe. Consider using a large rice cooker and making it white rice but flavorful using chicken stock to cook in and adding veggies. It will ensure your rice stays warm and you'll just scoop it on the plate and serve right away. The beans can be kept in a food warmer or use something you can plug in and keep on warm. To make your plates look fuller or worth the price, consider using a salad (iceberg lettuce, cucumber slices, rábano slices) to fill up some space making the plate more full and worth the $$$. Look, your restaurant has potential. I don't say these things to tear it down rather please take this feedback and improve. Maybe it was an off day for them.

    Birria Pizza, fresh made tortillas and chips, MEATS AL CARBON (cooked over coal).. they even have amazing chilaquiles. The food is excellent! From the asada tacos to the chilaquiles, some of the best in town. Family owned and operated as well. The staff is so welcoming and nice and the place is very spacious and clean. Oh and BIRRIA EGG ROLLS!!!!

Second -- CASH ONLY There is a Hawaiian inspiration/theme at the The OBH mixed with mexican flavors -- basically if you like a lot of meat with your breakfast then come here. When looking at other people's plates the portions looked very large -- the prices are average -- not cheap but not over the top. I did see someone with a cinnamon roll that looked pretty delicious. My mom had been here one other time and got the cinnamon roll pancakes, which she loved (and why we are here today) -- Nothing was speaking to me on the menu so I just ordered the classic OBH pancakes. I would give them about a 5/10 on the pancake scale. Also they didn't have real maple syrup even to purchase for extra -- they say their syrup is a maple syrup blend -- it wasn't full on plastic but it wasn't real maple syrup. I also ordered a side of scrambled eggs with cheddar -- it was a little runny and overall just average. The coffee was rank -- I would give it a 2/10. Our server was very friendly as was all of the other staff -- that is why I hate to only give 3 stars because it is a great local spot. When we left (around 9am) there was quite a long wait -- so you know it is very popular

Even though there was a longer wait, the food and experience made it feel worth it. The smoked brisket Benedict is the standout. The brisket is tender with a deep, smoky flavor. The eggs are perfectly poached, and when everything comes together on the English muffin base, it hits that rich, savory-sweet balance without feeling too heavy. The French toast is Thick-cut and caramelized on the edges, without being overly sugary. It's well-complemented by fresh fruit and just enough syrup so it doesn't turn into dessert overload too early in the day. Overall, Brunch Snob feels like a spot that knows how to do comfort brunch.

    Great Group Dining Experience, But Reservations Are Highly Recommended…read more I recently visited Brunch Snob with my fitness group after our weekend session. For anyone planning a visit, please be aware that the wait times can be significant if you do not have a prior reservation. Fortunately, our large party of over 10 guests was able to utilize an indoor corner space to wait comfortably until our table was ready. Once we were seated, the service was excellent. The staff was incredibly patient and attentive while managing a table of our size.The food and beverage options were generally well-received, though there were a few minor details to note. One guest mentioned that the options for mimosa flights were somewhat limited. On the food side, my order of the Mexican Cowboy Bowl was excellent and prepared exactly as expected. While most of our group's orders were correct, one eggs Benedict arrived overcooked despite a specific request during ordering to avoid this. Given the size of our party, the guest chose to accept the dish rather than send it back. Billing Tip: For transparency, an automatic 20% gratuity was included in the final bill for our large group. I recommend double-checking your receipt to keep this in mind before adding any additional tips. Overall, it is a great brunch destination with quality dishes, but making a reservation ahead of time is highly advisable.

    Decided to go to First Watch since I was familiar with the franchise after going to one in Houston…read more This location is within a rather small parking lot which seems to be dedicated to First Watch, we were able to find a spot near the back of the lot but it was quite crowded when we arrived around 11am. The interior is pretty long with a large number of seating inside the building so we had no trouble getting seated right away by the hostess. We decided on food relatively quickly due to previous experience with the business, however, our waiter never came around to take our orders or even give us water at the table. We saw one girl with dyed hair who unassumingly could have been our waiter since she was in our section but only worked with one particular table and ran to the back after each time, but never addressed our table or came by. We eventually had to flag a different waiter down who was able to help us place the order and service us for the rest of our visit, she also informed us that this other "Waiter" was supposed to help us but she wasn't sure why she never made an attempt to do so after having us wait 20 mins and other tables were being serviced. We ordered Flordian French Toast and Elote Breakfast Burrito (plus a couple sides and drink) which were both really good, and filling. Prices weren't too bad for what we ordered and was able to take our mind off of the rather long wait to get helped. Not sure if we'll come back to this particular location again, but it was nice trying the restaurant out another time.
