Glad we found Cafe Kahlo at the beginning of our trip. Cafe Kahlo is truly authentic food you'd find in Mexico City. Their offerings include items not specifically found in most Mexican restaurants. We ordered: - CHILAQUILES: Not your typical chilaquiles found in Mexican restaurants in American cities. Their combination/layers of tortilla, salsa, and queso fresco is perfectly balance. The side cecina (think carne asada) was very flavorful! - NOPAL HUARACHE: So light, but filling. A cooked palm of cactus topped with a combination of carne asada, black beans. We went back an hour later to order two more for dinner. (They close at 3pm when we visited.) - NOPAL & EGG SCRAMBLE: Nothing fancy. Pretty straight forward. But what got me excited was how delicious their potatoes were! And I'm not even a potato fan. The chef's husband Nector was helping as front of the house and waiter. Very personable and checked in on us several times. The atmosphere is very boho Mexican with loungey music playing in the background. We will come back here a couple of times before we return home.

We came here on a Sunday at 11:45 and it was open seating and no wait. We went to the patio since we had our dog. Our server was so kind and gave us recommendations on the menu. We got the champagne carafe (mimosas by the glass were only $3 fyi). I got the chilaquiles and it was phenomenal. Honestly a lot of food and could possibly be shared.

Food was delish, the iced mocha was a little inconsistent but the server was rly great and corrected it no problem. Plenty of extra sauce, and probably the best authentic Mexican brunch spot in all of hot springs. There's in open kitchen where you can see everything being cooked which is a cool experience in itself. Amazing art work and decor, and kind staff. Food is sooooo good. Go hungry you won't be needing a box. I come to this spot every time I visit Hot springs!

It's not your 'everyday' Mexican fare - it's much better. On our visit, they were clearly understaffed, but by giving the staff the grace that they deserved, we were treated to a great meal and an overall positive experience. We'll definitely be back. Guac was outstanding- quesadillas were worth bragging about.

Unplanned stop to Cafe Kahio today.our first time there. Highly recommend this family owned and operated business. Mom's food is deliceoso, one sister's drinks are muy bueno and the other sister's customer service was La mejor de la clase! We had the street tacos and the power bowl. Everything is made to order exactly as you want it. Highly recommend and we will be back

This is a great question place for breakfast with cool vibes. Our waitress was great- super friendly and has some great suggestions. We go the chilaquiles, al pastor tacos and huevos rancheros. The chilaquiles were amazing. The Al pastor tacos were decent. The star for sure was the huevos rancheros! The portions were large and perfect for sharing. This is a must for breakfast when in hot springs

The space is wonderfully decorated with quirky Kahlo-inspired paintings. The service was fast & friendly even during a potentially busy holiday. My partner enjoyed pancakes and I the chorizo Benny. I'd get the pancakes again in a heartbeat but the Benny had too many sauces that it became a soggy/mushy texture nightmare. Their drink menu was extensive and I could've stayed all day trying something new.

Cafe Kahlo is a creative Mexican restaurant that specializes in breakfast and brunch. The food is delicious, the decor is colorful and fun, and the service is friendly. It checks all of the boxes, plus one more: It's named after one of the most famous Mexican artists, Frida Kahlo! There are Frida Kahlo images everywhere, as well as skulls and things, making for a distinctly Dia de los Muertos decor vibe. Lots of red and green everywhere, sparkly globes, plants, and mellow sunshine streaming through the windows. This restaurant has Mexican breakfast foods on the menu, such as chilaquiles, but they also have things like street tacos, burritos, salads and a kids' menu. Whenever I see nopales (cactus) on the menu, I get excited, so when I saw the nopal hurache, I had to get it. It's a cactus palm topped with carne asada, black beans, onion and cilantro. It was fresh and light, and just what I was hoping for in a light lunch. Other people in my party ordered street tacos and a salad that was on the specials menu, and I got to taste the salad, and it was spectacular! Lots of avocado and bits of chicken and citrus. I kind of wish I got the salad too, because I could have eaten a whole salad. Hot Springs is low-key a great place to find great food. Cafe Kahlo is one of those great restaurants to add to your list.

this is not Tex-Mex! Hallelujah! The ambiance is great, the staff is super kind and professional, but, honestly, i would eat this great food on the curb in rush hour traffic, if i had to! Fresh squeezed orange juice, followed by Chilaquiles with cecina (i added an egg) chiles toreados, and homemade tortillas! ¡Muy sabroso! My only regret is i only had one opportunity to eat there! they have a parking lot, and there is free street parking in that area, also. Leave the congested strip, and check this place out!

Doesn't look like much on the outside, but this is a great little breakfast place with the absolute best coffee! They have a couple of vegan options. I suggest asking them to put the avocado toast on their regular bread instead of the hot dog style buns they use. They got soggy. But the flavor was good. Pinto bean spread fave it an unusual pop of protein.
