Malenas - Ephraim

The first thing you need to know is Malena 's is gone, it 's now Joe 's Cafe . But based on our experience, everything else remains the same. This was our first time, and I read most of the reviews and they are spot on. The asada tastes like pot roast. The sweet Pork is very sweet. And mild is VERY mild, like no heat at all. My wife, who doesn 't like spicy food loved it. Ironically, most of the customers were Hispanic which is always a good sign, but none were asking for mild anything! I ordered the sweet pork, and it was too sweet for me. Next time I 'll try the pork chili verde , or Al Pastor or carnitas. The burrito was enormous. My eyes bugged out at the huge amount of pork she loaded in, then she added more. All burritos are smothered with no extra charge. I think this is a place where you need to find out which ingredients you really like and stick with them.

In town for work. Cinco de Mayo gotta get Mexican food. We went here because of the reviews. TBH it's not bad but not sure I would go back. The service was fast and friendly. Prices are reasonable. Think Cafe Rio or Costa Vida. Bu the food is bland not a hint of spice. Don't get me wrong I am not a fiery food kinda guy but I need a little bit more spice in my Mexican food. So if you think ketchup is spicy this is the place for you. Otherwise drive on by

Better than Cafe Rio. Love the pulled pork and salsa. Quick pickup or sit and relax and enjoy your company. Clean nice place for friends or family.

Food was good and the prices were so good, we're going to have to make this our stop on this road

We like this place. we have had all the meat and it's all good. But the sweet pork is not great, it tast like it's just BBQ sauce. the trace laches is way good we always get on to go. Nice people that run the place.
