LA COCINA DE DONA ESTHELA, Valle de Guadalupe

Spent two nights in the area and had breakfast both mornings at Esthela’s. The first morning we waited an hour and it was worth it! The owner greeted each table and was gracious to spend time chatting with us about her experience with Gordon Ramsey!We...learned to arrive before 8am to avoid the wait. Excellent corn pancakes and omelette de la casa.More

A Gem on the Wine Route

Very good mexican food

The menu is very varied with dishes from regional and national Mexican cuisine. In particular, the cornbread cakes are very tasty and characteristic. It is a place that must be visited.

Authentic as it gets....

Been to Valle 4 times and have to make it to Cocina Dona Esthela every time or it just doesn't feel right. This time I brought 8 of my friends who had never been to Valle. Not one of them was disappointed. We had a...tasting of everything practically, from the nopales con huevos, elote pancakes, birria de borrego, chilaquiles, and everything was amazing! We will continue the tradition of making it to Dona Esthela on our visits to El Valle. Gracias Dona Esthela por mantener las tradiciones Mexicanas!More

TOO MUCH HYPE!

NO AS GOOD AS PEOLE ARE SAYING! We were so sad that this place wasn’t as good as we read. Corn pancakes taste like flour with a chunky feel but no taste of corn.. I expected a corn tamale as a pancake. I also had...the green and red chilaquiles and they were meh.. BEST -Frijoles, Queso , cafesito and watching the pigs swim !! Not worth the hour + wait .. sorry.More

Amazing food!!

So we read the reviews and decided to finally visit. We knew with COVID our wait would be long, but it was so worth the wait. The food is truly authentic Mexican food, just like my mom’s. If you see Mexicans there, it’s great Mexican...food! I had huevos rancheros and my husband had salsa de huevo, borrego and Birria. Ha. Yeah that good that he kept ordering more food after finishing one plate. The tortillas were made right in the kitchen (pic included). SO GOOD! If in the area, it’s a must!!More

Best breakfast in Valle!

If you’re looking for a classic breakfast in Valle de Guadalupe, this is your place. The roasted lamb is the best, natural flavor and it goes perfect with the homemade corn tortillas, beans and salsa!
