Adorable little spot with great food! I got the veggie breakfast burrito + potatoes. It was huge, and it came with lots of yummy authentic red salsa. It's stuffed with delicious scrambled egg and seasonal veggies. I did not intend to eat the entire thing, but I did. I also tried the pinto jalapeño empanada, and I'm not really an empanada person, but I would definitely order again!
Hit up Cafe Tola after a Cubs game. Wasn't busy at all. Ordered an empanada and a couple of Al Pastor tacos. Everything was excellent! So much flavor in the empanada. I wish it was a bit crisper, but still delicious. The tacos were double normal sized tortillas. Meat was flavorful and juicy. The salsas they gave us were also terrific! We ate in the little outdoor area , which although small, could've been done up a little better.
I’ve been going to various Cafe Tola locations for almost a decade. Easily the best empanadas in the city. Great selection of fillings. I recommend green pork, rajas (veg), ropa veija, chicken mole, and you really can’t go wrong with any. Tacos are an excellent deal, filled up and 1x taco is plenty for breakfast. Everything is well priced for quality and quantity.
Nice Cafe that makes great tacos. I usually get the OG (skirt steak) or the veggie tacos ????
Overall, I thought that the food was really good and worth coming again for. It simply is a bit expensive for what I feel like I'm getting through. But if you are in the mood for some good Mexican food, it's definitely a good place to stop by.
Thanks to Yasmin and Peppe for an amazing Monday morning coffee and chorizo breakfast taco. They adjusted my order to help with an egg sensitivity! Thank you! Super clean, super friendly, really delicious food!
It was just this morning and I made eye contact with the guy who was working. The clock said 6:59. They open at 7:00a. I knocked a few times and waited. Nobody opened it. I left because it was raining and freezing. Just disappointed that this dude literally HID out of sight and didn’t open the door for me. The other Cafe Tolas have great employees. I guess not this one.
I don't know how you mess up a taco, but they seem to do it every time. I've eaten there about half dozen times and wonder why I keep going each time. Steak is dry, shriveled and tasteless. Tortilla is stale. Often understaffed leaving the cook to take orders which is absurd. I think this place is the perfect example that with good marketing and trendy decor you can get a lot of customers and decent reviews.
