La Esquina Del Chilaquil

Mon-Sat, 8 am - 12 pm

Tortas worth the wait

For a quintessential Mexico City breakfast experience, La Esquina Del Chilaquil is the spot to visit. This bustling street vendor in the Condesa neighbourhood has gained legendary status for its delicious tortas de chilaquil—a classic Mexican sandwich filled with crispy chilaquiles, the popular fried tortilla dish often topped with salsa, crema, and cheese. Perfect for starting the day with a flavourful and filling meal, La Esquina Del Chilaquil attracts a loyal crowd of locals and visitors alike.

The tortas here are stuffed with green or red chilaquiles, along with optional toppings like milanesa (breaded meat) for added flavour and texture. The bread is soft and fresh, perfectly balancing the crunch of the chilaquiles inside. It’s a satisfying, affordable breakfast or brunch option that delivers on flavour and authenticity.

The vibe at La Esquina Del Chilaquil is casual and lively, with people queuing up in the mornings to grab a torta and go. The quick service and friendly staff make it easy to get your meal and explore the neighbourhood, making this a must-visit for anyone in Condesa.
