We came here at 6:30 am for breakfast and it was very good. I had the #1 platter which was about $11 and a horchata. Took ~15 min for them to cook it but they made fresh pancakes and fresh tortillas from batter. I think if you order something like a sandwich it may be faster since we saw people coming in and out with to-go orders. They also have fresh coffee. Homey, welcoming vibe and clean place

This style of ceviche is delicious. Some of the better ceviche I have tasted full of flavor and some spice. First time eating Guatemalan style of food, and I love it!! This place is authentic. Tantalizing for your taste buds in the North Fork! Who would have known. Totally unexpected and a pleasant surprise.

I went to El chapincito to get something for me to eat and I was greeted by a nice guy who works there, he asked me what can I get for you, I asked if they sell chicken wings and luckily they do, so I got me a 5 piece along with a drink and it cost me $5, that was cheap, I’ll be definitely going back there again

I recently purchased pepian de res and my husband loved it. He said it was delicious. They sell authentic Guatemalan food.

I went to this place years ago when it was different name. Back then the place was clean an good food. I stopped in to get a breakfast sandwich recently an let me say the black was dirty, extremely dirty there was dust on everything an it was dark. I asked as to why the place was so dirty an he said they clean it once a year. I won't be going back.

Friendly people working here and the food is good for the low prices. I got a pretty big Quesadilla with a drink for around $8! Come check this place out for a good inexpensive breakfast as well.
