Nopalitos Southwestern Café

We had the nopales omelette - excellent! It was my dad's order and what I'll be ordering next time. 😋 They made me an off-menu plate of scrambled eggs with Chile Colorado. The potatoes were tasty, too - as was the java city coffee. Staff was friendly. My dad said, and I agree: good food, good service, good vibe. Just good! It was our first time there - and we'll definitely be returning!

I tried the chorizo burrito and it was absolutely delicious! It was packed with flavorful in-house chorizo, scrambled eggs, grilled bell peppers, and onions — all perfectly balanced and not greasy at all. Every bite was full of flavor. I also loved that they have a salsa bar, which really lets you customize your meal. The staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, making the whole experience even better. Definitely a must-try spot in Sacramento — highly recommend

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review – Nopalitos, East Sacramento I stopped into Nopalitos for the first time today, and it absolutely will not be my last. This spot is a true East Sac gem. The dining area is small and cozy, with additional outdoor seating that gives it a relaxed neighborhood feel. You order right at the register, grab your own cream and sugar, and the whole process is simple and quick—perfect for a morning bite. I had the huevos rancheros, and they were phenomenal—seriously one of the best I’ve had anywhere. The flavors were fresh, balanced, and exactly what you want from a classic dish. The coffee was excellent too, strong and smooth enough to stand on its own. Overall, Nopalitos is the kind of place that makes you feel at home on your first visit. Great food, great coffee, frie

First, remember it is a cash only restaurant but well worth the inconvenience. The polenta breakfast is sooooo delicious. The flavor is awesome but the soft polenta is what makes the dish with eggs. I like runny eggs so it is the best; however, it would be equally as good with scrambled hard eggs. The portions are generous and the staff is very friendly. The current owners kept the original dishes so quality has been consistent for years. If you like southwestern, this is the go to place.

Let's cut to the chase, their breakfast burrito is the best! I've been searching for the best breakfast burrito in Sacramento for a while . I've been here about five different times and have only ever ordered the breakfast burrito. After trying multiple meats, I'd recommend getting the chorizo as the meat and adding cheese. I feel as though the bacon made the burrito a bit too salty, but the chorizo was just perfect Potatoes are not too crispy but it does not affect the flavor profile negatively. You might be able to tell this is more of a burrito review rather than a full restaurant review. If you want a burrito, you have my word that you're going to have a good time. If you're ordering literally anything else, you'll have to figure that out for yourself
