An outstanding experience at El buen Sazón due to its homely ambience, quality food, and exemplary service provided by Liliana and her husband. I felt like I was in my mom's kitchen so warming and peaceful.
A year later, their menu has expanded and is phenomenal. I tried the chilaquiles tricolor also known as chilaquiles divorciados. So yummy and the servings are big so you get a good bang for your buck, even on DoorDash! I remember the restaurant workers to be very kind as well, I need to make the time to go there instead of getting to go!

Great food. It was a Sunday morning and right before lunch where they seemed to be short staffed. Took forever for the food to come, but when it did; it was delicious! The waitress was a bit forgetful. She came asking if we would would like water and never came back with it. When leaving after paying the bill, I asked for a bag and the other waiter brought it instead. They were all happy and helpful overall. Food was great which made me still give the 4 star with the so so service.
Newish restaurant in Saratoga where a Starbucks used to be. The menu is definitely unique primarily because there is a pasta section with Italian dishes. Didn't try any - at least this time. There's also a separate breakfast menu that looks really good - again pancakes, waffles and French toast isn't your typical Mexican fare, but it is what it is. Tinga Chicken Tostadas Topped with refried beans, lettuce, sour cream, cotija cheese and avocado salsa. Comes with rice and beans. Taco Campechano Pork steak, refried beans, chorizo, nopales, potatoes, cabbage, green salsa and lime. Comes with handmade tortillas. Horchata Milky good with LOTS of cinnamon Quality is undeniable here and it's a must stop for Mexican food lovers for its authenticity and uniqueness. That's all.
It is nice to find a Mexican restaurant on the west side with quality food and some creativity in their dishes. I really enjoy their Huevos Rancheros, which is served on an open-faced fried tortilla kind of like a fusion of a Benedict and a taco. Their Birria is served in a skillet and I was instantly envious of my friend who had ordered it. I would really dig the Chilaquiles but their salsa verde is a little bit acidic for my taste. Their pozole has a good flavor but is a bit watery. The Cafe de Olla is also a good accompaniment to breakfast, with the cinnamon-accented coffee. The dining area looks like it used to be a classic American diner-type of restaurant. There is also a nice outdoor patio with 4-5 tables. I got the sense that it was a family-run business. Friendly staff and good service. Their food holds up well when delivered.
I had been craving a breakfast burrito for ages and had been hearing that Rose Cafe and donuts across the street had the best ones in the South Bay. Decided to come here instead after looking through the menu and the choices. I called in an order for the Mexican Breakfast Burrito and headed over to pick up on a Saturday early morning. They had barely opened when I called. There was a good amount of parking and I was the only customer. My order was already ready in the 10 or so minutes it took to drive over. I tried to pay with a credit card but their card reader wasn't working. Luckily brought cash, but they didn't have enough change and had to look around for change to give me. All in all. They were to great lengths to get me that change. A+ service, definitely made me want to come back. Got home and wow, great breakfast burrito. Yummy chorizo, great hash browns with bell peppers. It lasted two meals. I'll definitely come back to try the strawberry tres leches waffles and the other offerings on the menu!
Nice atmosphere: indoor and outdoor seating. Outdoor seating has two tables with comfortable black booth seating to fit groups of 6-8 people with a few metal chairs. Huge portions and very friendly service. We ordered carnitas tostadas, three taco plate, super burrito with chicken and Milanesa torts. Torta and burrito are served with fries. Make sure you come on an empty stomach...takeout containers are available at a self-serve area. **Chips and salsa are $4.50.
