“Cannot remember for the life of me who recommended this place to my dad when i was a teen but we would travel from the southwest side all the way up north just to get the sandwiches here”
Best steak sandwich in town 😋 👌 🙌 😍 🤗 Food is quality and great quantities generous portions everything is amazing 👏 like holiday food everyday 😋.
First time here and it did NOT disappoint 🙌 👏..
Flautas & tacos de pollo are my fav. I've ordered several times a week, they are authentic and consistently delicioso!
Good portions, authentic taste. Jibarito was tasty. And chilaquiles with chorizo and egg also very good.
1st time there and last stopped in today Monday 1-27-25 with my guy nothing special way over rated ..prices are way too expensive for the quality of meat steak was burnt lettuce was old n still wet bread was hard as ever.
Not that great. I tried this before a few years back and it was so good.

“I can't say enough about this place.”
I can't say enough about this place. The food is excellent, especially their pork. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, staff are attentive and the surroundings are clean. Entrees are large enough to share, sandwiches are delicious, breakfast is spot on and coffee is great. They have withstood the test of time and those who frequent this establishment know why. I highly recommend it!

“I’ve been coming here for years and honestly, it never misses.”
I’ve been coming here for years and honestly, it never misses. The food is straight-up amazing, the café con leche hits every time, and the prices are just right. Definitely one of those hidden gems you’re glad you found.

“This is clearly the community spot.”
This is clearly the community spot! So many people in to pickup food or eat there. Yummy sandwiches that can be customized with the cheese, toppings, and proteins. The egg and cheese sandwich really hit the spot! The staff were very nice and brought the food out to my table. Fair prices too! Great to warm up on a snow day.

“Marcella on Fullerton was packed when we got there, which is always a good sign.”
Marcella on Fullerton was packed when we got there, which is always a good sign. All the food was tasty, but my eggs looked a bit strange—though I still ate them. The cheesy bread was toasty and yummy, and the combination of rice, beans, eggs, and steak was really delicious. The cafe con leche hit the spot, making the meal even better!

Lovely small café. The coffee and ambiance are amazing. Small café with delicious breakfast sandwiches and empanadas. Great place for a quick bite to eat.

Cannot remember for the life of me who recommended this place to my dad when i was a teen but we would travel from the southwest side all the way up north just to get the sandwiches here! then i got married & now live very close so of COURSE its so hype i have closer access to it. We would get the sandwich de pollo con lechon and thats what i still get to this day. And their cafe con leche is so fire. The atmosphere is so cute and the service is a 10/10 so friendly!
