Such a great hidden gem! We visited on Saturday 12/27/25 and had a great time. The restaurant wasn't busy at all so we were able to get quick, great service. I got the enchiladas suizas and my husband got the chicken fajita. Both were really tasty and made for great leftovers too! Special shout out to the chips and salsa, the chips were seasoned (delicious) and the salsas were both spicy and yummy!

Simply blown away by the food we just had here. The side of steak was like being at a Mexican cookout and the beans and Mango juice made me feel like I was in Mexico. Service was excellent and interior design was hip yet cozy. Can't wait to go back.

I had a wonderful breakfast at Catrina‘s Café this week. It was my first time there and I will definitely return! There was a very extensive menu and it was. I had a hard time deciding as so many dishes looked fabulous! I had to go with the huevos rancheros as that’s my favorite Mexican breakfast dish. It was quiet on the morning I was there, but I can imagine that it’s quite a lively place otherwise. The staff were so kind, prompt and attentive. The food was delicious! There is a side parking lot, which was nice.

I recently discovered this restaurant/café and I must tell you to go see it for yourself. It has not disappointed the two times I have been there in the last two weeks. The service, atmosphere, and food have been outstanding. The first time I had the "churro French toast" and a Mexican coffee made with canela." Outstanding! The second time, I had the mixto fajitas. Many of us have had fajitas at many places and they are mostly vegetables that are cut so thin that you barely taste anything. Not here. They had plenty of shrimp, chicken, and steak. The vegetables were cut thick and you can feel the crunch as you bite into them. I also had a strawberry mojito. Delicious! Muchas gracias. Ya nos vemos pronto!

Pretty good. Did brunch and got the build your own skillet with chorizo, peppers, onions, and spinach. It came with 2 eggs your way, as well as red potatoes. My man got the meat lover’s omelette, that also came with red potatoes and he enjoyed it. Would’ve been nice if they had mimosas. Will definitely return to try dinner.
