“Today I passed by there and it will be my favorite place. I ordered some chilaquiles in green sauce with eggs and beans, they were delicious.
They served me a Menudo broth if I asked for it and it was 10 out of 10 super and the horchata too.
The waitress was super friendly and the owner too.
And the place is very well decorated and clean.“

“Oh by the way, we had to come back to try this restaurant today. Two days ago, the 1.5 hr wait was too long because of the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. For our first time at L & J Cafe, we enjoyed chili con queso, green chile enchiladas, Mexican combination and Caldo de Res. It was worth coming back.“

“Truly an incredible family owned restaurant that serves up some amazing Mexican cuisine. Their food reminds me of eating at my grandma house on Sunday afternoons. I ordered some flautas, flan and the best Horchata ever! Will definitely be back to try their breakfast menu soon…😊“

“Great place highly recommended“

“The food is outstanding. The menu is creative and excellent with superb seafood ceviche and delightful appetizers. Our waitress Genesis was very good and very welcoming. The whiskey sour was one of the best in many years. The decor was very pleasant. Overall, this restaurant is a true find.“

“I tried Mexicos city's birria so I was iffy about trying it here! I had the ramen and it was great. My husband had the quesabirria and were great too! The but is that it is too hot no a/c. The two young guys cooking don't greet and are on their phones! Never saw them wash their hands. Instead of being on the phone they should CLEAN! Wipe their areasand help clean tables. Tables were dirty and has plates on them. Young lady was awesome!“

Since my first visit, I have been back almost every day. The staff now call me by name and know my order. I highly recommend and the food is really great. I have only tried the chicken chilaquiles only but a friend suggested that I try it with egg. Now I have another reason to go back!“

“What a great n cozy atmosphere! The decor included beautiful artwork on the walls Try the creamy soup tacos! Menudo wow! Greeted with beautiful smiles !“

“Walked in to the place it was small but had a good vibe. Owner took our order and sat us down . We ordered colitas de pavo and a combination on that had ham steak winnies and a shredded beef . They were so good at first we didn't think we would get full but the fries hit the spot. We were stuffed and their salsas we on the spot. My son said that was our new father son go to place and he is very picky. I wish we would have had a table not a both but place is never empty.

Parking: Plenty of parking and easy to get to

Wheelchair accessibility: They will make sure you are seated comfortably“

“Pleasantly surprised, I thought I was walking into hole in the wall restaurant, instead, I found a beautiful upscale Mexican cuisine restaurant with a beautiful table setting. No store brought chips and salsa was the first clue. Beautiful water glass with classy water refill carafe and cloth napkins (at lunch time). Service was great and menu was appetizing. I deserved this and will treat myself again soon!“

“Great tasting tortas…… was craving a cubanita torta and this place did not mis very delicious and fresh… staff is very friendly and attentive…… Salsas are not too spicy 🌶️ just right…. Go give them a try…you won’t be disappointed…..“

“You can't find a big size Burrito like bonnys there the best, I love the place and the food hands down💪“

“Great food, great service, and great vibe. Very happy to see a successful restaurant inside the mall. Hoping others will catch on to what Palenque Grill is doing. Cielo Vista is long overdue for a major lift and Palenque Grill may be the one that is starting it. Highly recommend this place!!“

“Home of Lucys Famous Machaca and Tacos Antonia“

“I’ve been here a couple of times the Barbacoa is so good as well as the menudo, but this visit was a little different I got a 32 oz menudo to take and when I opened it, it wasn’t filled up to where I would expect it and to top it off it was more juice than meat and hominy. Was kinda disappointed for the price. But over all I hope to have a better experience next time.“

“Amazing barbacoa burrito, fort bliss burrito, and eggs and ham burrito! Green salsa was very good, too. Simple menu with affordable meals. Service was friendly and prompt. Not the cutest dining experience but simple and quick place with delicious burritos.“

“Best quesabirria tacos!!🌮 the spicy flavor of the consomé 👌🏻was delicious.“

“UN LUGAR QUE REALMENTE TE LLEVA AL RECUERDO DEL SAZÓN DE LA ABUELA, UN LUGAR CON EXCELENTE SABOR , LIMPIO TODO BIEN ACOMODADO UN LUGAR MUY BONITO“

“I don't want to hurt their rating but it seems I just ordered wrong. I eat out everyday and have Facebook page Chico Eats to review. Iam very direct in my review I don't hold back anything . The Salsa is good. Make your own chips,store bought ones are bad. Enfrijolasas. Not the best. I wanted refried beans and way too much onion. Queso fundido horrible. Got solid as a rock. Prices great. Staff great. Clean place. I'll go back for second chance“

“Muy rica la comida, muy bien servicio y muy limpio“

“The food is amazing and the food came out fast!! Will be going back with the entire fam. 10/10❤️❤️❤️“

“service, attention, fast service, friendly, cleanness, felt welcome, reasonable prices. The staff went out of their way to make my special needs brother feel special on his Birthday. They sang a birthday son with joy and warm wishes. Thank you for the awesome job!“

“I had a burrito de deshebrada, very well prepared and every bite was tasty. The chips and salsa alone are delicious. The servers were very courteous and helpful. My elderly mother complained about each item she ordered, the sopa was too salty, the caldo de res had too much fat and only a little bit of beef, but she does that anywhere she goes. What stood out is that they were very patient with her and since she didn't eat, they removed the food from the bill. She calmed down towards the end and admitted to our server that maybe she was the problem because she can't taste much. Thank you for your kindness. I (alone) will definitely return to try other dishes.“

“I’ve been a customer since the pandemic when they were parked next to circle k on Zaragoza it’s been my go to place for birria tacos they are the best and best thing is they do giveaways and I’ve been a winner ❤️ thank you for existing!!!!“

“Omg! so good!! plus very good customer service 👌“

“Been coming here for years the food is excellent better than L&J ‘s and Carlos and Mickey’s. It’s a simple place not much to it but the service is top notch! And at the end of your meal they ask you if you want sopaipillas and it’s included with your meal. A must place to eat great Mexican food!“
