La Guadalupana Restaurante - Berwyn — Restaurant in Berwyn

I'm trying to find words to describe the two star rating.first and foremost * My husband as his servsafe manager certificate. We walk in and a friendly hello and a typical weclomeing ,yet in plan view an open cryovac bag of red meat half open with preparation 1.)cutting board 2.)knife and 3.)cross contamination in an area that is handling raw meat In a cooking area; HACCP is not being meet. Moreover, when we receive our food the presentation of the quality looked not fresh also Luke warm food yet 135 ° or high would of been properly hot. Meanwhile, the smell of refrigerator blood meat smelled a little throughout the meat. Since the hot sauce was poured over the meal. The second plate of beans were left rice,and lettuce wasn't even touched. Finally it wasn't busy pre say but not enough help or delegation from upper management to fill in the area to see the troubling areas that needed attention to. Lastly, I see why there getting a bad rating. More training in Harazrd critical control point (HACCP) rotating smaller amounts of food to be on the steam line to keep them fresh also temperature log to help out..in addition the pictures of the food on the menu look great and fall short to live up. Also the waitress was friendly . Thank you for being attentive. Just to say it's a competitive market and things are getting worse in economic conditions try to manage , boost profits to provide excellent...

I took my mother out to breakfast. Fortunately we were the only people there. I believe they just opened. Unfortunately for us we picked the wrong place. The beads are extremely spicy. I don't know what they put in them. Who orders an omelette with nothing in it cuz that's the way they would have brought it to me after I said ham and cheese. I know. I know you don't go to a Mexican place for an omelette but they didn't have what I wanted. Which is Machacado. Our waitress and the rice were the bright spots of the restaurant. I just have one small, not even an issue. If you're going to be a waitress, you have to learn to understand English as well. You may not have to speak it but you should understand it. My omelet was plain. As I said, the beans were very spicy. Neither my mother nor myself finished our food. I left more than half of my food. Will we go back is the question? The answer is no. It was extremely expensive. I paid $40 for an omelette and eggs with tortilla chips, jalapenos tomatoes and onions. And there are two coffees as well. I wouldn't have mined so much with the price as long as the food was good. In my...

As a food critic, I'll be EDITING my review and posting on TikTok 1st time try.

UPDATE

I'll get straight to it. The food was decent 7 out of 10. They do have option of hand made tortillas corn or flower. Had the Huarache Steak, steak seemed like it was precooked even though I did ask for it well done not burnt or crispy. It was still nicely flavored. It was definitely nice size serving veggie toppings on it were fresh.

My partner has the Plate of Carne aside she ordered it medium well. It was very tended a little under seasoned but it was still nice.

As food certified 18year restaurant manager. There are some thing's they need to fix and clean. The kitchen is very open. The storage area where the food is being held in a MEAT display. The back stoves are very filthy. It's a new location/ remodeled there for the expectations cleanliness should be better. Also hid the mouse/ roach traps. Clean under the food holding refrigerator and where the coffee machine is located.

Other than that. The food is good WILL be giving...
