    7/10 Flautas de papa 9/10 avocado chilaquiles…read more 7/10 chorizo chilaquiles 5/10 beans A coworker who works in the area recommended this place. I'm a huge migas fan and never thought to try chilaquiles. This place did not disappoint. I added eggs, chorizo and avocado with half green and half red sauce. I was surprised to get each adding in an individual stack. I managed to get my egg yolk over the avocado and chorizo. The food was really good, just not what I expected. The flautas de papa were a great buy. Instead of using a corn or flour tortilla to mop up my plate, I was able to use the flauta and with the papa in it, they were like little sponges soaking up all the leftovers

My favorite is the Tacos Llorarás (you will cry taco) which features a handmade corn tortillas stuffed with a chile relleno made of jalapeño and cream cheese, plus a flavorful beef birria. Add your garnish and salsa of choice, and if the heat of the chile doesn't make you cry, you will eventually cry if you cannot return soon. It's that good! Drinks are either Jamaica (aguas frescas style). This location is right across the road from the Sam's Club on South Jackson Road. There is additional parking in the back. Family friendly.

    Updating a previous review to add new menu prices. They have increased quite a bit in the last 3…read moremonths. The service is still horrible. Last night my water was never refilled. I only saw the waitress when she dropped off the menu and took my order then when she delivered my order then when she brought the check. It was a lot of sitting there hoping her and the other larger girl would look up from their phones to bring me something. Tonight was much worse. Even after leaving a 30% to be nice last night I was completely ignored tonight and after 10 minutes went to the bar and asked for a menu. She never came back to take my order actually a guy from the back that brings food up saw I was being ignored and came up and asked what I wanted and 6 minutes later I had food. Then it was a 20 minute wait to get a check while they were busy yelling at guys across the lobby. While I'll stay at this hotel again I won't waste my time eating here again. The food was great, no issues with the food, the waitresses just don't care to serve people sitting at tables, just the guys sitting at the bar. Waste of my time and money.

    Stayed at the hotel on business for a couple of nights. We decided to eat at the bar, atmosphere is…read morenice with live soft music. First night I ordered the NY steak, it was pretty dry and over cooked when I ordered it medium rare. The worst part was the asparagus that came with the steak, they should have been in the trash and not on a plate as they were no longer green but the stems were yellow....next day we ordered pizza and they served it cold. The two girls at the bar service were absolutely horrible, you had to chase them down for drinks and other needs or keep asking. They were to busy on their phone or talking and not tending to the customers. I'll stay at the hotel again but will opt to eat elsewhere or order UBER eats. Worst bang for your buck.

    Just moved here. Don't have to look for a breakfast place anymore. Service was great and the place…read morewas very upbeat. We'll be back for sure.

    I had just arrived in town and I was hungry. Thankfully, a family member had this diner on their…read moremust-try list, and it went pretty well. We all ordered something different with the goal of being able to taste more of the menu. The menu is a well-rounded Southern American selection, and all of it is made in-house. It was a nice touch with the newspaper like menu, loved the decor and cabin home theme. The side salad was fresh; however, the house-made ranch was too creamy and too thick. There was potential with the cooked bacon mixed in, but the ranch flavor was missing. The cup of chili was great, similar to Wendy's chili if you needed a comparison. My meatloaf was good; the added carrots and topped crispy onions weren't too bad; however, the drizzled brown gravy was a no for me. The side of creamy grits and green beans and bacon were gobbled up! The cornbread muffins were a bit dry. Side of hash browns were good, a little on the oily side. The biscuit and gravy were colossal! Loved the gravy; the biscuits were a bit too doughy, almost seemed a bit undercooked, and for some reason, there seemed to be a lack of flavor in them. Enjoyed the ham and eggs. The pot roast dish was savory, and everything was nice; the veggies were a little over-seasoned, but I didn't mind them. The chicken-fried steak plate was a hit, I didn't even get a chance to take a solo photo. We had no room for desserts, and leftovers were taken home and appreciated. I'd like to add, despite ordering the larger versions of these meals, we only paid $68 and some change! The place was clean, the wait time was commendable, and the service was incredible!!! Despite the small misses, we'd still return. The majority of our food was great, and we left fuller than ever!
