    Green chilaquiles
    Flower A.

    The food was okay and the menu is limited. I went on a Saturday around 1pm and they offered aguas frescas but then they said they were out of it. I got the traditional green chilaquiles and the tortillas were crispy but the salsa lacked flavor a bit. Also I went with a friend and when it came time to pay they asked if we wanted to split the bill and we said yes but they ended up charging her for the whole thing which is inconvenient bc then I had to send her money. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall the place is pretty and aesthetically pleasing but the food sorta lacks.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    I will start by saying the food is really good but this place has lots of potential. There are some things that I think would be great improving. [[HIGHLIGHT]]To start off the plates cups for coffee are so beautiful, I love that they opted for traditional servware.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]However I don't understand why there is plastic silverware. I don't think that fits into the aesthetic and just seems off.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] In addition the wait time is absurd. It would be great to have a system where you can join the waitlist or make reservations to avoid having to wait so long. Overall the food is very good and have no complaints on the quality of menu items.

    I tried this place today for brunch with my family. My daughter picked this place because a great past experience with a friend. This place is GREAT! The food was delicious and well presented, the service was prompt and friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Decor is beautiful and plates and bowls are all beautiful authentic mexican pottery.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered chilaquiles and menudo. OMG! I will tell all my friends about this pl

    Tamale bowl
    C M.

    We went to Tesoro Mexican and overall had a good experience. The food was solid. I ordered the tamales bowl, which was pretty good, and enjoyed it with a cup of coffee. My daughter had the chilaquiles, and she really liked them. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was cute, clean, and had a cozy vibe, which made it a nice place to sit and enjoy the meal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only downside was the long wait. It took about 70 minutes to be seated, which is understandable given how small the restaurant is, but it was still a bit much. Despite the wait, we were satisfied with the food and overall experience. I'd recommend it if you don't mind waiting or can go during a less busy time.

    Tried this place for the first time and it was delicious! I ordered the Chilaquiles Divorciados and they were so delicious.

    Tesoro from the street

    My husband found this place when shopping for records across the street and hasn't stopped talking about it since then, so we got up early this Sunday morning and headed over there to try to beat the crowds. [[HIGHLIGHT]]What a wonderful, welcoming restaurant![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I hadn't read any of the Yelp comments before we went, but my goodness aren't you people in need of a reality check? We walked in and were greeted and we were early enough to not have a wait. While we stood there waiting to order, I read their sign that basically let's you know that there may be tables available, but they will fill them according to the number of servers/staff available at the time. (I feel like the ones complaining would take the tables if offered and then complain because service was slow.) Once we were seated, we were checked on regularly and our service was impeccable. The food was delicious! Hubby is hooked on their chilaquilles and I had the chorizo con huevos and they were delicious. I wasn't crazy about the potatoes, but I'm that way most places with breakfast potatoes. (For the ones complaining about not having chips so you could eat the beans? They do provide these new things called forks and spoons.) Bottom line. Put on your patient pants on and go enjoy this delicious food, wonderful coffee, and their sweet employees!

    Chilaquiles

    Food was amazing and did not taste Tex Mex at all, portions as you can see are huge and they have great agua frescas and coffee. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Breakfast time does get busy so keep that in mind[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] but service was great

    The manager is rude and hung up on me over trying to order food to go. I have been a customer for nearly a year. She tried to over charge me and after trying to explain that every other time, which is once a week I order from this place has been an amount less for an order of chilaquiles Verdes, and I have a every charge on my bank statement showing the less amount​. Highly unprofessional.

    I finally got to try this place, and honestly it did not disappoint. Cafe de holla was amazing, aguas frescas delicious. We got Pancakes, chorizo/eggs and flautas plate food was so good specially with the salsa they give you. Service was really good girls had big smiles, very friendly and attentive. I'm so glad I came to give them a try and not just go based on the bad reviews. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is cute, authentic and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]People want this place to be like a chain restaurant and you have to understand it's not, be patient the place is very small and only couple girls working.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Cafe de olla

    Figured I would go by to try this place out. The food was good and service was attentive. But the cafe de olla was delicioso.

    Beans could've been eaten, but they DON'T let you have chips. Their chips are only used for their chilaquiles! Worst effing answer EVER

The dipping consomé is seriously to die for, and the meat is cooked to absolute perfection. The service is great, and the Chicano art painted throughout the restaurant gives the whole place such a cool, authentic vibe. We always share the combo because you get a little bit of everything, and trust me, it will definitely fill you up. Seriously, get it. This is our number one taco spot in DFW, and after your first visit, it might be yours too.

They're your typical trendy taco place, with their own selection of merchandise and crazy/cheesy jokes strewn about on t-shirts and signage. They have an ample bar space, but it looked like only one patron was interested in that; the rest of us were there to eat. You order your food at the counter and get a buzzer to come back and pick it up. The staff is friendly enough, but you don't really interact with them much since it's all pretty much self service after you go to the counter. The drink station has cane sugar based sodas; it's a bit heavy on the foam, but otherwise good. We opted for the birria pizza, a couple of cups of pozole, and a side of elote. Everything was solid. The elote was good, not great, but the pozole really hit the spot given how cold it was outside. The birria pizza is what blew me away, though. This was easily one of the most unique, but tasty, things I've ever had. It's not really a pizza, more like a topped quesadilla, but they did a great job of it. I'd not only come back here next time I'm in Fort Worth, I'd be interested in opening a location in Houston if I had the money to franchise it.
