Espresso Y Poco Mas — Restaurant in Manuel Benavides

First, let's get the negative out of the way. Please read my whole review, I have positive things to say. Ok! So... THEY HAD HORRIBLE COFFEE. Omg. Like some of the worst I've had. Second, the clerk who rang us out kept doing other things as she was taking our order, it was weird because I didn't know whether to stop talking until she could pay attention or not. I didn't want her messing up my order. Example: I approached the register and she asked what I wanted, I said as I took a step back to look at the menu above me "I will have..." And she was gone, making something in a corner barely visible in my line of sight, I had to scoot over and peek over the counter to see her to make sure she didn't just disappear on me. Lol like what the heck. Rude. That continued throughout my interaction with her. Anyways, the ladies cooking food don't speak English. Which is okay, but their reaction is not. When I approached them asking where I put my plates, they just laughed and stared at me. Like wt# that was so awkward and rude. Ok so good stuff, the food was great! It came out quick and I freaking loved it. So did my fiance. Very tasty and awesome flavor. Loved the salsa too. We had breakfast here btw. Anyways, so the decor and the whole place overall was freaking cute, clean, amazing, lovely... Just wow I wish I had a house like this, with plants and decorations like they had. Loved it so much. I could sit there all day and chill and enjoy the scenery in the place and also around...

The food: Three stars. Employees: Zero stars. NOT wheelchair accessible.

Breakfast here is wonderful. Pretty much anything on the menu is very nice, and the refried beans appear to be home made. The tortillas are not, nor were they fresh on our visit, but that is easy to overlook... You'll be chowing down on everything else.

As for the employees, there are two sides of the Dr Jeckyl and Mr Hyde service: male and female.

The ladies who work here are very friendly. The men... Not so bueno. Day 1: heard the guy in front of me order an iced latte with honey and cinnamon with his breakfast. They gave him no problems. I ordered one right after, and the employee rudely says "honey and cinnamon is outside... You can get it yourself." Next day, I walked up to the counter and as soon as the word "latte" came out of my mouth he interrupted me with "if you want honey or cinnamon again, get it yourself outside!" Despite this, I tried to be nice and dropped a five dollar bill in the tip be jar and made sure he saw me do it. His response was only a dirty look and roll of the eyes.

Been coming to Terlingua for over 30 years. Worst service around, but the breakfast is good. If you can resist the overwhelming temptation to reach across the counter and slap this millennial, you'll...

I will preface that there was a film crew on the days we went but I do not think that service or being polite should be compromised due to being busy.

My husband and I were camping not too far and had some of the cafe's tortillas a day prior. When I saw a lady bringing the tortillas to the cafe I thought perfect timing to ask where they come from. I waited until she had them delivered to ask. She passed in front of me I asked and she told me her mom; before I was done a very rude woman interrupted and said wow she jumped right in front of you then pulled her away. As they walked away the rude woman continued to mock me she looked at me while doing it and laughed. I was shocked!

This was all happening while we were waiting for our name to be called out. We ordered something other than the burritos and when asked how much longer and that people behind us where getting served they responded it's because they ordered burritos and took less time and they get delivered first. What kind of service is that?!

Finally our name is called after an hour of waiting! The food was ok; my beans were cold but the wait and rude woman wearing the buff made the whole experience disappointing. I would not recommend this place. Go to the Cottonwood store or the gas station for faster...
