It melted in my mouth almost like custard, in such a delicious way, and the flavor was perfect. WOW! The hot chocolate is also delicious, and frothed/served table side. Not too sweet. It was still their breakfast menu so we got mole enchiladas and some sort of enmolados with salsa verde. I preferred the latter, but it didn't have as much chicken on it as I'd like. I'd come back just for the sweet bread.

This place was highly recommended by my brother and it didn't disappoint…read more Fernanda was my sever and was helpful. The place was full and the only table available was the one by the entrance but then luckily the booth became available and I kindly asked if I may move it to and they approved and all the servers helped move my plate, cup, napkin, and fruit.

Highly highly recommend this place Tip. The refill on Coffee isn't free there's a charge The specials only come with what they offer. Loved it!!

I prefer the green sauce from the chilaquiles. I also ordered the fresh squeezed orange juice and it was very good. I was able to order some conchas to go. Best idea ever. I will be back!

We didn't dine in since it was hard to find seats for our group, so we just stop by to grab to-go. If you want some their popular items, make sure to come during the day time since it will run out. We came here a few times to try different baked goods: - Guava roll (5/5) - Butter croissant and honey croissant (4/5) - Tres leches cake (5/5) - Concha (3/5) - Mil hojas de frutos rojos/mixed berries napoleon (4/5)   The most popular item was their guava roll and it lived up to its expectations. The guava jam was sweet but not too overwhelming. The roll itself had a similar taste to a croissant. It was soft and flaky. They nailed the texture. We ordered a slice of the tres leches and napoleon. Tres leches was moist and the napoleon also was delish. Everything was well priced and a decent size for the price. The concha was also good, not too dry. They have an outdoor patio with shades. The menu also offer a variety of coffee drinks although we didn't try it this time. Overall, a great stop for a sweet treat.

So funny. But once we walked over, we saw that it was a very lovely, traditional restaurant with very friendly servers. We were able to stand with the employees during our earthquake evacuation into the street. I especially loved my omelets with the creamed flor de calabaza that came with chilaquiles. I will say that the employees are super polite..and can't imagine them running after a customer because they did not tip enough. With that said, the man did go ahead to add 15% to my card as I was signing out, and I said it was fine because I was going to leave that much or more anyway, but they should not have assumed. Jut saay no to the fruit and drinks and pastry tray if you do not wish to purchase them no problem. A delightful spot to just sit and watch people & dogs go back and forth all day long.

We were not sat on the patio as those seats were all taken by reservations but we were able to walk out and take a picture of the plaza below. I chose the pulpo adobado. Grilled octopus, a spicy avocado sauce and biryani rice. The octopus was nicely charred and the creamy avocado sauce went well with the charred octopus. The octopus was grilled perfectly it had a nice char outside and was tender inside. I tried a bit of my friends Chamorro de Verdi (pork shank) in mole sauce. The pork shank was braised beautifully and fall off the bone tender. The mole sauce was flavorful and not overly sweet. The portion was also huge. The meal came with bread accompanied with 2 types of butter regular and a coco infused butter. Both had salt on the side which added a bit of flare to it. I preferred the regular butter but enjoyed trying the chocolate one, it reminded me more of a breakfast pastry or a dessert. Overall great meal, service, ambiance and nice view.

I ordered chilaquiles verdes with arrachera 8/10 because the food came out lukewarm--if THAT! Service sucked 4/10- I felt like because I was a "foreigner" attention wasn't given to me at complete capacity, I'm native to Mexico even if I don't look it. The food runners gave better service & attention than the actual waiter. I would've liked to sit closer to the overview of El Zocalo but at least photo opportunities were available. I expected better from this place & maybe a revisit will enhance the rating experience. Ambiance 10/10 because it is beautiful & gorgeously decorated all over; everything else could be elevated!
