Café Chamoy — Restaurant in Fate

The food & service were amazing. It's a cute little Mexican cafe that serves a few pretty authentic dishes, as well as some great desserts (some with a Mexican flare). My chicken quesadillas were amazing... and the pico reminded me of the traditional salsa I get in Mexico; finely diced pico de gallo. I also got their Elote!! Which was really tasty... I will 100% be back (actually I'm probably going back today to try something different). After I ordered I saw they had a Chicken Salad Sandwich -- which is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE DISH (if served correctly). And they seem like a place that knows what they are doing... they have TORTAS, too!!

Yep, even though I've lived right down the road from this GEM for OVER THREE YEARS (to be honest I thought it was ether a coffee shop or a small little pastry place)... definitely MY LOSS!!!

The ice cream there is delicious, and they have quite a few really yummy looking, unique, desserts that I will MOST DEFINITELY be partaking in today - ex: a churro sundae!! WHAT?!?! Yep, I hope it tastes as good as it looks.

So- 2 THUMBS UP, 5 ☆'s and a new favorite of mine fu6r either a quick snack, a cold ice cream dessert on a hot Texas day, or lunch/dinner. They have a menu that can satisfy anything your heart desires (food wise - Mexican if course, but it also offers fruit, Chicken Salad Sandwiches and Tortas... which ARE Mexican food, but could be a borderline dish if you are looking for other options)!! AND WON'T KILL THE WALLET EITHER - 100% worth the money. I got 2 FULL meals outta one!

GO HERE, YOU WON'T BE SORRY... and just an FYI -- their Cookies and Cream Ice cream is unlike any I've ever had before......

Tried their tacos ($1.95ea+tax) for another option of traditional Mexican "street" tacos. Very good and normal methods (nothing odd). We tried Brisket, Al Pastor (Spit Grilled Pork) and Carnitas (Pulled Pork). We also tried their Salsa Verde and Salsa Roja. Roja (red/orange color) was very very hot (be warned), but good if you like spicy. Verde (green color) was much more bland. The meat sometimes is flavored enough it has a kick on its own (my wife sometimes doesn't even add salsa). Good tacos!

We really liked the brisket and pastor tacos. I enjoyed mixing the two salsas (for more of a kick) while those that didn't like spicy enjoyed the salsa verde. OF COURSE add lime and keep the traditional cilantro & onions.

Only difference we noted compared to other options was the onions. The onions were standard chopped instead of grilled onions.

They also sell Churros Con Cajeta ($2 each) that are good. I think they are using the standard Churro Factory made churros. Worth a stop for a snack. Nice and warm with gooey caramel oozing out. Let them sit, as always, will come out super hot and the inside can burn you for a long while. The hot inside is the best part, but is hot. We noted they use an air fryer here so not quite as good as other places (but still tasty).

We took food to go (did not eat in, though they had tables you could eat at for best 2 at each table or 4 maximum).

Very good in general and...

horrible place and horrible service, asked for a double order of rice on a taco plate and a regular taco plate. when we got the food theres was one serving of rice in the double tray and barely any beans or rice in the other taco tray. when we came back to the store to ask for it to be fixed they refused and then the store owner accused us of messing up the plates and also accused us of targeting the employees of shaking our plates. since we realized that obviously they wouldnt fix the plates we asked for a refund since it was almost thirty dollars for two plates and they still refused!! the girl in the front was fine, but the cook and the owner were rude. the owner was super condescending and spoke to us like children, basically telling us we were the problem and how she doesn’t trust customers complaints because her employees do no wrong. even after she looked at the plates she said “they look fine, if you have a problem ask for everything separate” after almost thirty minutes of arguing they finally remade it. this place was was great last year but has gone downhill ever since! will not be coming...
