I’ve driven from out of town and the door is locked- they frequently close unannounced and don’t follow their own hours of operation. Food is not that great, if you’re lucky they’re open. Salsa cart was very dirty last time I visited. Ladies working there are rude and don’t seem to care about customers. The owner definitely doesn’t when the hours change without notice, gas is expensive to give this place a chance and them not be open.

Upon arriving at this small Mexican eatery, I was surprised to learn that La Lonchera is not a lonchera at all, but a purveyor of guisados (home-style Mexican stews) in a free-standing building. La Lonchera’s food is heavy and hearty, and rather than benefiting from the subtle touch of a professional chef, it is infused with the love of an excellent amateur cook (I suspect a grandma) who has thankfully chosen to go pro.

Completely unexpected!!!! I asked about their tacos and the gal pointed out the meats. They weren’t your typical taco meats, but instead were what you would expect from a Mexican home meal.

Chile colorado is very good, but employees don’t wear gloves when making tacos. Employee scratched her hair and nose and didn’t wash her hand. Plus she had acrylic hands, when definitely is a must when preparing tacos. One less customer for this place, plus employees are not too kind to customers.

This our breakfast tradition, when we leave Mexicali and head home to L.A. county. I cannot say enough of this place. My husband introduced this place to my parents and myself. We all have our on favorites. It is well worth over eating here.
