Momentos Cafe

My husband and I always come here on our date night. Food is amazing. Must try the Carne Asada fries or any fries. Especially the Mexican burger it is by far the most delicious burger we have ever eaten. I love the way that they were as great as take care of us hands-down the best Mexican restaurant in La Mesa.

I usually got the chicken tortilla soup or roll tacos. But this time I tried the torta. The momentos torta was soooo good!! So much filling in a warm toasted bread. It's so good!! They also have posole which I want to try next!!!

The first thing you notice when walking up to Momentos Cafe is the smell—and wow, it smells *delicious*. It immediately makes you hungry and excited to check out the menu. The place itself is small and cozy. There are two tables outside; I’m not entirely sure if they belong to the café, but they’re not in the best shape. Still, the experience inside more than makes up for that. The staff is truly amazing—friendly, welcoming, and very attentive. The guy behind the counter even went out of his way to try to clean one of the outside tables for us, which we really appreciated. The food was great. I ordered the chilaquiles divorciados with both green and red salsa, and I have to say, both were very tasty in their own way. My mother ordered the tostadas de ceviche, and she was very happy with

I ordered a burrito and an enchilada platter. The place is nice and clean and good service. The chicken was very tasty. I would have liked bigger sides and the chicken was just a bit dry

Ordered the carne asada plate and it did not disappoint. The meat was super tender and full of flavor. The creamy and smooth beans were seriously some of the best I’ve had. It normally comes with guac but I asked for it without. The rice was solid and the salad was fresh. You also get your choice of corn or flour tortillas. Will definitely be back for this one.
