Always top notch! Breakfast and lunch, they really do make the rest of the day feel good after eating the chilaquiles(i ask for both cheeses) or their papusas in my opinion

Terrible Experience – Do Not Recommend
This was hands down one of the worst meals I’ve ever had. I ordered the carne asada plate and menudo, and both were absolutely awful. The carne asada was dry and flavorless, and the menudo tasted old and just plain bad.
To make things worse, we had to wait forever for our food, even though the place wasn’t busy. The waitress was inattentive, unprofessional, and downright rude. No refills, no check-ins—just a miserable attitude the whole time.
I rarely leave negative reviews, but this place was such a disappointment that I feel the need to warn others. Save yourself the time and money—go somewhere else.

Everything we got was super duper yummy. Diabla shrimp, lemon shrimp, shrimp salad and their breakfast bacon,egg and potatoes burrito not pictured before eaten, were all full of flavor. Will definitely be going back again and again again and again again 😁

Came here over the weekend. From the moment we walked in, we felt like we were visiting family. The ambience is quaint, cozy, and we were greeted with smiles. We got to choose our table.
The food was amazing. I ordered the lengua plate, the spices and sauce was stewed in a red sauce, lengua was tender, very flavorful. The plate came with beans and rice. The beans were refried, very creamy texture, delicious flavor, the rice was complimentary as well, mixed in to the sauce, it meshed well with the lengua.
The main compliment was the homemade corn tortillas, I was able to eat my meal using the tortillas, no utensils needed!
I truly felt like I was at my relatives home. The music was great as well, overall, the place is worth checking out. The menu is simple and to the point. I plan on trying their menudo next time. Or, about 5 other things on the menu that caught my eye!!!
Their horchata was very authentic! Just like my tias! To top off our visit, the staff gave us a sweet tamale to go, on the house. Great the next day with our breakfast!!!
If your looking for a comfortable, family type Mexican meal, this is the place to be.

I stopped by Olivia's early for a breakfast favorite of mine Pozole, The pork was tender, plenty of condiments, chopped onions, lemon, oregano, freshly made corn tortillas.

Olivia’s is one of our go to places in Watsonville. They are very welcoming and the food is delicious. Prices are competitive.
Since the first time I ate in this restaurant the food has always been delicious, helpful and kind waiters would definitely recommend to a loved one😋

Every year I come to this place to have the most best Chili Verde I've ever had! Love the handmade flour tortillas!!! I go once a year to my championship for gymkhana and this is always a must go to for my week in the area to have dinner!
We really loved this spot. The food was authentic and homemade. They really cook your order from scratch, and it was not filled with msg and salt! Food was yummy and the soup tasted so clean. This spot made us feel like we were visiting a down to earth food establishment and not a chain! We will be back anytime we visit this town.
