Seated fast, amazing food, great & friendly attentive servers, and extremely large portions. We will definitely be coming back here!
Grossest tacos ever! Service was the worst. If you are looking for authentic Mexican food this is not the spot.

El Minuto Cafe offers authentic Mexican food with popular dishes like crispy cheese crisps, rich red sauce enchiladas, and delicious refried beans. The restaurant has recently undergone updates but still remains a favorite for date nights and family gatherings. Customers often enjoy the Chicken flautas, and many appreciate the fast table service and the good old-fashioned Mexican flavors that are both tasty and reasonably priced, especially the $10 lunch specials. The menu features homemade Mexican dishes, with flavorful salsa and baked portions. The atmosphere is simple and accessible, with everything at a lower level and on tabletops, making it wheelchair friendly. Visitors frequently mention the friendly staff that feels like family, and the food is often seasoned just right. The shredded beef combo plate, served with beans, rice, and a large flour tortilla, is highly recommended. Many guests have fond memories of dining there over the years, and newcomers are encouraged to visit, as it is considered one of the best Mexican spots in town with good prices. The Minute special, with everything on the plate, remains a popular choice among diners.
