    Chilaquiles
    Winta E.

    This place has the best chilaquiles in the city! The service is good and the restaurant is clean and bright. The only reason why I did not give five stars is due to the parking situation. It's valet only and the lot is directly infront of the restaurant and it's an extremely small lot which defeats the purpose of valet.

    We found this amazing little gem. The atmosphere was wonderful and the food delicious!! Our service was amazing as well. It was our first visit, but definitely not the last!

    I love looking for places to eat when we are in town for work! I came across El Encanto and it truly was the pan dulce and cafe de olla that sold me on the reason our group go here! The interior is beautiful. It's clean and it's give exactly the aesthetic that they promote....Mexico City. The service was great, so hospitable. Like you were enjoying a meal in their home. They had an outdoor area which looked very green and beautiful...the Dallas heat and humidity prevented us from even trying to go out there and enjoy it!! The food was delicious! The pan dulce, the cafe de olla hit the spot just like I was hoping it would! The chorizo torta was perfect...the bread was so soft!! We all enjoyed our meals. It's not a large place for groups unless they move tables together. The parking is interesting. Their own lot has about 6 spots, so when you pull in there is a valet guy that takes your car and parks it somewhere else. We got there in good time because when we were leaving there was a line of cars waiting to get in! I would still go back...breakfast or even dinner!

    Came here for brunch on a Saturday around noonish and was told the wait would be 1 hr 15 min for a table of 4. We decided to wait since we made the drive up to come and actually got our table in 30 min.. the size of the restaurant isn't good for big groups so max I would say would be 6 ppl if u are planning on coming here, unless u split up. Parking is terrible here, they recommend their complementary valet. The food we had was really good. I had the green chilaquiles and a cafe de olla (a little sweeter than the one I'm use to in Mexico) they have fresh Mexican bread they offer as well. The green chilaquiles had a kick, which cleaned my sinuses but they were delicious. Had an order of their pancakes, which were also good. Our food did take a minute to come out but overall it was a good experience. They do have some outside seating. I would come back but maybe during the week.

    Let just start by saying, how cute is this breakfast/lunch spot. The cleanliness and minimalist setting is adorable. I felt cozy and the patio was a great touch to the fresh food served. I found this spot in search of authentic Mexican breakfast and I was not disappointed. I had the green chilaquiles. By far the tastiest food I have had here in Dallas. We were great and staff was friendly. Our waiter was efficient and our food came out at a good time. I do wish my coffee was a bit warmer. Other than that everything was great. Can't wait to visit again and this time have sweet bread!

    I've driven past this restaurant and been intrigued for some time. Unfortunately, their hours are somewhat limited so that had to wait. However, I could tell by the always full parking lot and obvious wait outside that I had good instincts. When my wife and I finally had a free Saturday morning, we jumped at the chance to try it. Know that parking is limited, and while they have a valet to attempt to manage it, it was so busy when we arrived that we just parked around the corner and walked in. True to form, there was a wait (pro tip: use Yelp! to jump in the queue ahead of time), but it was managed well, and the $5 mimosas (featuring FRESH SQUEEZED orange juice) helped pass the time. To our eye, this place is less Tex Mex than CDMX inspired, and I know that matters to some people. When we were seated and I glanced around the room to see that we were the only gringos, my anticipation arose and I told my wife that I couldn't wait to Columbus the hell out of this place. From service to food, it did not disappoint in any way. My chilaquiles with shredded chicken were served atop a crispy corn tortilla (that somehow stayed crispy until the last bite) with the most flavorful sauce. While I like spice, I opted for the milder "red" sauce. I'll go hotter next time with the "green" sauce. My wife's chorizo egg sandwich was similarly epic-the eggs cooked perfectly, the avocado just right, and the chorizo lively but not punishing. TLDR: great, friendly service with excellent food. Go now-you won't regret it!

    I can't say enough great things about this place, everytime i come, the service is amazing, the food is delicious. I feel like I've stepped in Mexico City everytime i come here. To me, it's hard to find a good chilaquiles plate in dfw but this place does it AMAZING. It's a longer wait most times but it's so worth it.

    Almost an hour wait on a Saturday at noon but I think that was mostly bc of rain making the back patio unusable. The menu is limited but whatever they do have is good quality and portion. Very small space so probably not a great idea for a part of more than 6.

    I and my friend were looking for a nice little brunch spot and I came across this one on TikTok. Sometimes I'm wary of suggestions on TT, but after some digging, found that this is was a beloved spot. So we drove over early on the weekend to try it out. It's an unassuming small storefront, with valet parking available up front.The inside is very cute and cozy, with outdoor seating. The decor is very reminiscent of CDMX. We got: - pan dulce: 10/10, not cloyingly sweet, soft, and tasted freshly baked - chilaquiles: 15/10, spicy, well flavored - mimosas: 11/10 affordable and strong - cafe de olla: 12/10 coffee with brown sugar + cinnamon notes in a clay pot. Literally life changing - huevos al gusto: my friend got this, and said it was very good. - iced latte: my friend also got this. She said she doesn't drink coffee often but thought this was also well done. Bookmarked for my next visit. Can't wait to come back.

    Best chilaquiles in Dallas. Yes, you'll have to wait to be seated, but it's worth it. The service, coffee, conchas, and food are excellent. The tables and restaurant are always clean, and I love the music they play

    First timer, was not expecting a long wait for a tuesday! But oh my! Worth the wait. Cafe de Olla was perfect, Green chilaquiles were super spicy. Best chilaquiles i've ever had, great taste.

There is ample parking, as it is kind of in an out of the way part of DFW's old Korea towntown. It is part of the building connected to a bank, so you enter through the building then turned left to the coffee shop specifically. While I have only ever come by to quickly satisfy coffee cravings, there is ample space to study or hang out with friends! The atmospheric music is not loud and distracting but rather adds to the peace of the cafe. The menu is quite diverse and even includes food options, not just pastries! Over the years, I've always stayed true to my caramel tomnccino (blended caramel/coffee drink topped with whipped cream) as it is sweet but still strong. I've noticed that this location tends to be less consistent in the make of the drinks, but overall I've always enjoyed it. As it's closer than the Carrollton location of Tom n Tom's, I've come here more frequently and will continue to enjoy my favorite caramel tomnccino!

The place has a variety of seating, is clean, and isn't too loud. There were a lot of people studying and working. I didn't have the best experience. They had their Fall drinks written on the menu and then after explaining to me what the Johnny cakes latte tastes like, they told me it wasn't available until Tuesday, which was misleading. I tried to order a seasonal peach tea drink, and they told me they were out of it. At this point, I was frustrated and got the golden latte, which tasted awful. It was so ginger-y and not smooth at all. It tasted like the equivalent of a tough-to-get-down juice shot. I ordered a breakfast veggie sandwich, which wasn't bad, but my friend and I both ordered it for dine-in, and for some reason mine came out in a to-go box. This was super odd and there wasn't an apology or anything. The sandwich was okay - the avocados weren't ripe yet and were kind of hard. The brioche was good, but $10 for something I could throw together at home in 5 mins was unimpressive. Overall, I won't be back. Ascension in Frisco has seriously the best service, with an expanded menu, and coming here was so subpar and disappointing.

Everybody is very friendly and the place is usually very clean. Service is great. Food is genuinely delicious. First visit I had a mushroom sauce and beef crepe and my husband had a croissant waffle. Both very good. Second time I had a smoked salmon crepe, which was incredible. It also comes with a side salad that was equally delicious. They have a vegan batter option which was actually very tasty, not something you expect. My husband had something breakfast-y the second time around, also great. The cappuccino comes with a little Eiffel Tower on it which is a cute touch. Only complaint from the first visit was finding a hair in my cappuccino. I genuinely don't know how you get a hair inside a cappuccino but there it was. We sent it back and they rectified the situation very quickly, so kudos for that. They have a couple of vegan options and alternative milks, not a huge selection but it's there. We would come back. No real complaints. P.S. My ratings are based on whether I believe I could make a better or healthier version at home. If food/drinks/service impress me, I'll be happy to come back. If not, the stars reflect that.
