This is my first time visiting Texas and we decided to try this place out for breakfast. I can honestly say this place did not disappoint. To start the cafe de olla is amazing. I was going to ask for creamer to add in but the server told me to try it first then think about adding it in. Thank god he told me to try it first because it was delicious on its own and they serve it in a traditional Jarrito Mexicano. The food was amazing. I got the breakfast torta and it was delicious....
