I have been wanting to go to La Casa de la Abuela (Grandma's House) for a long time. Friends of…read moremine have raved about how good the food is. Well, they were right. La Casa de la Abuela covers every category for a delightful breakfast, brunch or lunch: a menu with great variety, quality delicious food, excellent service, a beautiful and pleasant atmosphere, good parking and a great location. My friend had the enchiladas suizas. I ordered the chilaquiles rojas con pollo. The menu warned that the salsa roja is spicy... and they are right. I like spicy, and this gave me the hiccups! Not to worry, they have several options, including mild ones. I was impressed with their molcajete of guacamole, the refreshing strawberry lemonade, the classy presentation of each dish. I almost ordered the chile relleno or the torta ahogada. I learned they make their own birote (a denser kind of bread roll) for the torta ahogadas, which is key for that dish hailing from Jalisco, which is smothered in salsa prior to serving. Everything I saw was spotless, elegant, and beautifully decorated. It's a new fave, and I will go back. When I do, I want to try one of their pastries: conchas, chocolate or strawberries and cream filled croissants, and more. This was a great place for a meet-up with a good friend. It would also be great for a date with my wife, a business lunch, or small groups. The dining room is not very big, so large groups would need to find another option. I highly recommend, Grandma's House!

This place has completely redefined breakfast by delivering a truly authentic Mexican…read moreexperience--absolutely no Tex-Mex here. It artfully fuses contemporary culinary creativity with the deep, nostalgic flavors of traditional Mexico. I ordered the Molcajete Norteño, and it was, without question, the best breakfast I've had in a long time. More than just a dish, the molcajete is a full sensory experience--beautifully presented, sizzling with flavor, and visually captivating. The atmosphere is equally impressive--warm, vibrant, and inviting, with a distinct charm that makes you feel both excited and at home. I highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for a memorable and flavorful start to their day.

Guadalajara Express is a pleasant surprise and something unique in Mexican cuisine…read more As there is limited signage, and the establishment is small (cozy), it is easy to miss if you're not alert. It's located just west of Raul Longoria in a strip mall, on the south side of Nolana Loop, next to Magnolia Events. To get into the parking you need to approach it from the west (as if you're coming from the expressway I-69-C), because dividers in the road do not allow a left turn if you're coming from the east. But it is well worth the visit! Guadalajara Express specializes in regional Mexican food from the Guadalajara, Jalisco area. I spent my teen years living in Guadalajara so when I heard about them it got my attention! I love the regional cuisine from Guadalajara and there are several things on their menu you cannot find anywhere else in the Valley. Yet I have often been sorely disappointed with Mexican restaurants as most here "americanize" their food. I am thrilled to say that my worries were needless. Guadalajara Express has authentic regional jaliciense food and do it well. I have been twice. The first time I ordered the "carne en su jugo" and the second time I had the torta ahogada. Both were wonderful! I was especially impressed since I knew it takes a special kind of birote (bread) to make the torta ahogada; the usual "bolillo" does not work. The birote is denser so it won't fall apart when they cover it with salsa. The owners / operators are from Guadalajara (once I tasted their food I could have guessed that). They found a bakery that special bakes the birote for their torta ahogadas. The torta ahogada has a dense, toasted birote, filled with carnitas, then covered with a sauce. Back in the 1970's they used to dunk the torta into the salsa, but nowadays it is ladled on. They ladle on a mild salsa, but provide a cruse filled with super hot salsa made with chile de arbol, use with caution, but it IS authentic! The ambience and decor is beautiful, lots of traditional Mexican "artesanias" many made in Tlaquepaque or Tonala, from the Guadalajara metropolitan area. It is a little cluttered, but pleasant. Both times I went it was very clean, service was exceptional, the food was heavenly. Prices seem a tad high, but considering you won't find their specialty offerings anywhere else, I thought it reasonable. I really enjoyed it and think you will too.

The red and green salsas were very good, one spicier than the other for anyone's taste. Service is always amazing, friendly and polite staff. I always recommend Nana's to anyone new to the Valley. Something for everyone, and no matter what you order, you're going to be satisfied.

However, the food is overpriced and the service we received was dismissive. There were a lot of flies inside, and we found a fly in our margarita after a couple of sips. When we brought this up to the server, no apologizes were made and it was brushed over. We were told they replaced it with a new one, but the glass we received after was the exact same level it had been previously, which we were told was due to restaurant policy. Important to note, the "full" glass we were given not even a full glass. We returned the drink due to not feeling confident in the change. Would not recommend this place, and would recommend driving out to some of the other further restaurants in the area!

Los totopos vienen de diferentes sabores and my favorite is the nopal. They add so much flavor and make the whole dish feel special y bien pensado. They have a great variety of guisos and I had the chicharrón prensado con salsa verde. Buenísimo. The salsas you can choose from are all so so good. De verdad todas están riquísimas. My advice is go with your favorite color porque no hay pierde. You can add as much salsa as you want and every option hits. On the weekends they also have menudo bien riquísimo. De ese que sabe a casa y a domingo en la mañana. My daughters tried the breakfast tacos and they loved them. The flour tortillas are handmade y se nota. You can build different breakfast tacos and they even have one with salchichas just like you would make at home. We also tried the little pancakes and wow. It is a whole treat. Soft warm and comforting. Do not skip the arroz con leche. Tiene sabor a piloncillo and it is súper cremoso. Perfect way to end the meal.

The food is prepared and ready to be plated. The girl at the counter was very nice and explained to us the menu as well as gave suggestions. My husband got a fajita taco and a chicharrón prensado gordita good flavor, nothing wow. I got the chilaquiles box as you may already know I luv trying chilaquiles. I got the chicharrón prensado verde with the Suiza sauce. Good flavor BUT IMO it's missing the egg. In all the places I have ordered chilaquiles egg is an option. I felt with what I ordered I was just eating totopos ( chips) with salsa nothing else. The concept is good but missing the extras. The chilaquiles was less than half the box and for that I paid almost $11. If you see the picture the chilaquiles were below the white letters where it says chilaquiles. Honestly I would rather go elsewhere for chilaquiles.
