★★★★★ 5.0 Jesus Almighty · Sep 2025

I had the pleasure of trying the Chulada Chilaquiles plate at Teresa’s Mexican Restaurant, and it was outstanding. The meat was perfectly marinated and cooked to perfection, tender and full of flavor. The chilaquiles themselves were rich, flavorful, and absolutely delicious — easily one of the best I’ve had. The service was excellent as well, attentive without being overbearing, which really added to the experience. Teresa’s feels like a hidden gem, tucked away but serving food that deserves to be on everyone’s radar. If you’re looking for authentic, well-prepared Mexican cuisine, this is the spot.

Been waiting for weeks to snipe the timing to come to this place to try their chilaquiles. They open too late for me to come in by the time they open. They close so early that by the time I go by they are closed. One lucky day I had to go to the DMV and struck lucky, they were open. I ordered the chilaquiles. Sadly and disappointingly the tortilla chips were so sloppy that there was no crunch to them. Also asked for extra cheese. If that was extra cheese. I would probably need a microscope to se the normal amount of cheese they use . SAD! Will never go there again. Not worth the almost $20.

Best cafe de olla that I have ever tried!! If you’re in the El Monte area come try this place. Homemade, home cooked meal. Food is so fresh and homemade and delicious!!! They even have homemade salsas they give you to eat with your food. Don’t forget to try their homemade flan!! They make you feel like you’re at home. Small spot in a small shopping center. Well worth the drive if you don’t live to close.

10/10 Will be back for more. Walked in the door and was warmly greeted. I ordered the mamalona chilaquiles and I was asked which sauce I’d like. I paused for a long time, apologized for being tired I was just about to have breakfast at almost 1pm. I was offered a half and half sauce order. Before my food came I was offered a cup of coffee on the house to help perk me up. There are no regrets on the 50/50 Chile, They were both delicious and the very healthy serving of food was filling. The café de olla was delicious. I’ve never had it but I think I imagined it tasting more forward and strong and probably have avoided it for longer than I should have this one was very pleasant to drink with a splash of cream *chefs kiss* I’m grateful. The food was again perfect the steak was made medium an

Authentic delicious epic Mexican food. The burrito de mole has a great flavor, not too strong. It was filled with chicken, rice, and mole. Portion is big enough for two people, will not disappoint. The fish taco was really good, it had a great flavor to it. The sauce they put on the taco really complements the fish. Do you want to go to Mexico to just eat great food? Then order the quesadilla hand made, it was a taste of Mexico. I would say the quesadilla was one of my favorite. The chilaquiles are exactly what chilaquiles are supposed to be. They are fried chips smothered in two great sauces, I chose green and red but for my taste I liked the red one better but both were amazing. If you go to Teresas don’t forget to order the delectable cafe de olla. The coffee is not just ordinary
