Ever since I first learned of Mujer Divina from Instagram, I've been wanting to check it out. And now that I've been, I only wish I've made the time to go sooner!
On an early Saturday morning, my husband and I were in the area taking care of errands when I was in desperate need of coffee. Thankfully, this gave us a chance to drive down E 8th Street and finally try out these coffee and burritos. It is street parking only but if you're there early enough, it's not too hard to find parking.
For the uninitiated, you can order online or at the register. It's recommended to go over the menu so you can see their latest updates/seasonal items. Since it was our first time, my husband ordered a cafe de olla and I opted for a cafe con leche. To round out our order, we also got a machaca burrito, birria campechano, and a bean and cheese burrito.
It's crucial to note that these tasty treats are all made to order. If you're not able to order ahead and are in a rush, do yourself a favor and come here when you have the time. It's well worth it! I'm glad we were able to sit down and enjoy the decor and vibe. Very colorful, feminine and empowering. And loved the music playing in the background!
When our coffee and burritos were ready, we savored our sips. The cafe de olla was sooo good! Very rich in flavor and just the right amount of cinnamon and sweetness. The cafe con leche was also solid and balanced in flavor. For the burritos, although they may be smaller than what you're used to, the quality is amazing and unparalleled. We found that splitting the three burritos between the two of us was filling and we were very happy with our choices. Will definitely need to try the other burrito varieties!
Also, shout out to Fernando! He was very kind and helpful as we were figuring out our order. We found out that, at the time, Mujer Divina had just been featured in the San Diego Reader so we were enthused that they're getting the recognition they deserve.
Overall, a very solid coffee and burrito house! I will happily be back and excitedly count down the days when their second location opens up on Third Ave!
