This was our first visit, but won't be our last. What a surprise to find such a hidden gem in this little shopping center. Appreciated the outdoor seating, kind service, and delicious lunch.

Took my 5 & 7 year old here for dinner. The waiter told us they have chips and salsa just for kids - it's the first time my 5 year old had actually enjoyed salsa! My 7 year old chose the shrimp tacos and he was stoked and ate it all! Definitely a kid friendly place, especially with all the decor on the walls. We'll absolutely go back

Was looking for something new to try aside from our regular fast food stop. So we decided to stop by at del pueblo cafe. The service here was great. They had our food out in a short time and no long wait. The food tasted good and what gets them 5 stars is their customer service. The attendant was very fast at getting our orders and checking in on us very often. Would definitely recommend.

We arrived around 9:30am and there was nobody inside but we decided to take the risk anyways. What a pleasant rewarding surprise! I have ordered Huevos with Machacas and honestly, they were the best I ate in my life, and I go to Mexico every year and eat this same dish very often there. My husband also loved his chilaquiles and said they were the best in town! Service was good but not wonderful. We asked for hot chocolate for our young daughters and waitress came back saying they didn't have it, which it was a little disappointing since it's such an easy thing to prepare. Other than that, just wonderful food besides being a beautiful and well decorated environment! Totally recommend this place and we will be coming back very soon!

I am having the Mexi-Bowl which is like a taco salad but switch out the salad for the best fajita vege combo ever. It has bell peppers, onions, zucchini, carrots and eggplant. The carne asada in it is tender and tasty.

You’re missing the best breakfast in town. The owner is an expert barista. I had an almond latte with cinnamon and the scramble with nopales (opuntia cactus) and California chiles (not spicy). Also try horchata with a shot of espresso for lunch. The portion was enormous and the flavors were fresh and exciting! The potatoes were so crispy. I used to frequent this restaurant years ago for their healthy soups. I’m so pleased that this is now a woman-owned local restaurant. This is a must visit for specialty Mexican breakfasts and coffee brews. Also a great spot for gluten-free options.
