Went in for tortillas which were made fresh and were good but feel like it was way over priced. Definitely a language barrier. There was a deal posted in the window for tortillas but was charged way more but not sure if it was because they were large flour tortillas that we got. $$$$$ will be looking for another place to get fresh tortillas.
i paid my food and before that the lady called Gloria Mejia. She told me before i paid that i didn’t give a tip and i gave her $2 in cash. i come home to look at my receipt and she forced a tip of $20.23 dollars without my consent. i would give 0 stars but i cannot. I Also put No tip, and she took out $20.23 dollars without my consent.
This place is literally and figuratively a "hole-in-the-wall" gem of a restaurant. First, let me set the scene. It's 7am, my mom and I just got off the plane and we really want some soup. Almost every place we wanted to go was closed as it was still early. When I looked up "soup" on Google maps, El Granito de Oro was open and super close. So we went. Initially, we weren't sure they were open because when we walked in, we didn't see anyone. But I could hear a constant "pat, pat" sound coming from the kitchen. Low and behold, a lady was in the back, making fresh, handmade tortillas! She didn't even have the handpress some of my friends' moms used. Nope! She was doing it all by hand. We initially had trouble ordering due to the language barrier, but we were able to order 2 soups: chicken and beef (short rib). Both soups came with 2 tortillas. The chicken came on the side rather than in the soup. We thoroughly enjoyed this breakfast. While it wasn't anything fancy, the portions were large and it was delicious. Just like you would expect at grandma's house.
