Pastores Brunch

This place is amazing!! I got the enchiladas and the buffalo chicken sandwich. They were so flavorful and the portions were perfect! My daughter loved the pancakes, and the service was awesome. Really small inside, so be prepared for a wait, but besides that literally perfect.

This is the best brunch I have ever had! We enjoyed the whole experience so much on Saturday that we came back on Sunday to eat here again. The host was very friendly and gave wonderful recommendations on what to try. Maria was our waitress and was everything you could ask for in a waitress plus more. She was so kind, friendly, and informative about everything on the menu. We never had to ask for anything because she was so attentive and made the experience so much better! On Saturday, the host recommended the steak tostadas, and that is what I had. My wife ordered the omelets with fresh fruit, and we also ordered the Mexican street corn. The steak tostadas was absolutely amazing. Everything tasted so fresh and seasoned perfectly. The portions are large, and we struggled to finish everything. We came back on Sunday, and it was just as wonderful. Maria actually recognized us, and you could tell it genuinely made her happy that we enjoyed the experience so much we came back. It's hard to explain, but it is definitely obvious that all of the employees enjoyed their jobs, and customer satisfaction was the best I have ever experienced. On Sunday, I ordered the P&B eggs Benedict, and my wife had the Chilaquiles Verdes Con Pollo. I was blown away by the eggs Benedict. Everything tasted so fresh and prepared to perfection. You know the food is good when after every bite you are telling your spouse how good it is and trying to share each new flavor you discover with the one you love. We also had the cinnamon coffee, which was recommended by another customer on Saturday and the Ponche Navideno that Maria recommended. When I tell you that both of these will warm your heart and bring a smile to your face, that's a guarantee. The Ponche Navideno is a traditional Mexican fruit punch served hot with fresh and dried fruits. Maria explained to us how to go about drinking it, which was simple but definitely worth following. First, you take out the sugar cane and bite down on it, releasing the sweet flavor of the beverage soaked sugar cane into your mouth. While riding that flavor Rollercoaster, you smash the fruit in the bottom of the drink and stir. Then repeat. This drink is so good. the only way to make it better was a little splash of your favorite adult beverage and a comfortable seat around a campfire. I will definitely be eating brunch here every chance I can when I aIm in Chicago. If you have made it this far, just take my word and go enjoy yourself. Thank you, Maria and staff, for such a wonderful experience. To the owner, I would like to say I appreciate putting together such a wonderful team, fresh ingredients, and such a wonderful place!!!!! MUCHAS GRACIAS!!!!

Very friendly service, and the food was both tasty and artfully presented. The restaurant is cozy, but can be a bit noisy which can make conversation difficult. Recommended.

Absolutely blown away by the brunch we had. We had the chilaquiles and molletes. We’ve had chilaquiles before, and these stacked up at the top of the list for us. It was our first time trying molletes and we were so happy we did. The pico they put on top was so vibrant and fresh, and paired nicely with the soft and savory beans and bread. We also had the cafe de ollo. Everything was great, the vibes are fun, and the staff was very nice. I cannot wait to go back!

My friend and I went to go eat there because we heard it was good. It was a beautiful day so we asked if we could sit outside and they said no it's closed and there were several people sitting outside eating?? So we sat down inside and began to order and people came inside wanting to eat as well and they asked if they could sit outside and they were accommodated. There were three other groups that came in and got seated outside and this made us think?? Was it closed because I was there with a BLACK person? The answer is yes that they were prejudiced against my BLACK friend. We are both in our 60s and were shocked beyond belief. We asked our server why we couldn't sit outside and she said because the day before two groups dined and dashed and left without paying. We are both in our 60s with college degrees with bald heads and they thought that we were going to run after we ate our meal and not pay?? This is barbaric and unacceptable in our world today. We were totally shocked and dumbfounded. We will never go to this place again and I highly recommend that no one else go there either. We were singled out not to sit outside because of my friend being BLACK. Then one of the cooks came out and got in my face and told me to leave and flinched at me like he was going to hit me wanting me to do something to him. This goes way beyond anything acceptable that I have witnessed. I am an ex-college wrestler at a division 1 school and I would have ate this guy alive. He is lucky that I used my maturity and left. The people sitting outside heard what was going on and they verbally said that they were on our side and could not believe that they said that to us. They are RACIST to have us sit inside so that we would not dine and dash without paying. I have yet to talk to the manager but I will. The cook should be fired and I have not decided yet to take this to another level (my BLACK friends lawyer) because it is totally unacceptable. I still can't believe what happened and this has been 4 days later. I have not contacted them because I needed my temper to lower before I speak to management about this completely unacceptable manner that we were treated. I'm thinking very much about taking this to a whole new level because that's how bad the situation was. We were humiliated because my friend was BLACK and we could not sit outside. Attached are pictures of people sitting outside and the other picture is of the cook inside that was giving me awful verbal abuse is shown they're trying to explain it to the customers outside. Those customers verbally told me that they totally agreed with our point of view and they could not believe that this RACISM still exists at this place right next to Lincoln square. We never once heard an apology or anything which makes everything that much worse. They obviously don't trust BLACK people and that is just disgusting.

My host of where I’m staying recommended eating here and man was she right! Being from Arizona I’m skeptical when someone says places have amazing Mexican food items. Well it’s a small cute little Restaurant, I ordered the Cinnamon coffee which is different and amazing, I also ordered the Chilaquiles as I my Phoenician/Arizonan self was curious, I had it with the Verde sauce and sunny side up eggs and WOW! I was impressed! I also ordered the Meat Lovers Skillet, home cut potato wedges I believe and a bunch of meets, eggs and cheese absolutely amazing the flavors were perfectly implemented. I ended up taking the rest of skillet in a box!

I’ve been here almost five times and I finally left a review — my favorite breakfast place in my neighborhood. I’m trying to make my way through the menu but so far my favorite is the grande burro and the breakfast sandwiches (sliders.) Would definitely recommend. It’s a fun little diner with kind staff and tasty breakfast/brunch food.

It's such a great place to come and have a monster delicious breakfast from omolettes to sandwiches. I am definitely coming back for another item off that menu maybe customize it with some pepper jack cheese or spicier spices. Went with the El Español and wasn't disappointed at all‼️
