The best place to eat breakfast in Chihuahua! I tried the huevos ahogados, huevos divorciados, pancakes, and machaca con huevo and they were delicious! Both the salsa roja (Chile colorado) and the salsa Verde were to die for. I surely come back!

Every dish we have tried here we have enjoyed very much. This is quality food being served. Service can take a while, but it’s always busy when we have ate here, so it’s to be expected too.

This was a great restaurant for lunch. Unfortunately, I did not take a picture of my meal. I had the enchiladas verde, which were delicious.

OMG: best restaurant I've been in Chihuahua, the food is delicious, everything we order was soooo god that I'm definitely going back on my next trip. The atmosphere of the place is like back on time: it was my grandma favorite place to eat and I just figured out why. The food, the people, the place even the huge scale they have by the entrance .

The best meal I have had so far! Milanesa Papalote and Flautas de Pollo is delicious! The best chips and salsa! A lot of food for a little money. I look forward to going back!
