Reviews
The food is unique – not just Mexican but specifically Oaxaquena style. Delicious – and very large portions. Our group had the sandwiches, vegetarian options and the grilled options. Everyone walked out happy and full.
We bought a cake that was almost too pretty to eat. Moist, not overly sweet and fresh with peaches and strawberries.
The service was friendly, accommodating and professional. They were all very nice.
It’s a hidden jewel.
Baked goods:
They have beautifully decorated cakes, delicious bread, an assortment of pastries, donuts and cookies. Everything is made in-house and will appeal to anyone who likes baked goods, regardless of whether or not you’ve been to a Mexican bakery. Also everything is priced reasonably so just grab a couple of things from the display case and know you won’t be spending that much.
Since Cornelio’s presents themselves as a bakery you might be surprised to find out they have a huge selection food for breakfast lunch and dinner.
Tortas:
These are HUGE sandwiches on fresh house-made bread. It’s a real treat to get a sandwich on artisan bread made in-house that’s this good. The Torta Mixe is probably the safest bet with bacon, steak, avocado, cheese, chipotle sauce, mayonnaise, lettuce, peppers and onions. It’s $15 but it’s a TON of food and is probably one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had.
Tacos:
All of their tacos are great, although they are $3.25 instead of $2.50 as advertised. Still a great deal. Stick with the Asada (steak), carnitas/pastor (pork), pollo (chicken), chorizo (sausage) if you want to play it safe. If you’re feeling adventurous the barbacoa (beef), lengua (tongue), cabeza (beef cheek), and tripa (tripe), are all delicious but they cost an extra dollar. You can top everything yourself with as much cilantro, spicy pickled onions, radish, cucumber, pico, and some Amazing salsas.
Quesadillas:
These are good, but I don’t think the amount of food you get is as good value as other menu items so I won’t much time on them. Once again the price on the menu is dated and they cost a couple extra bucks.
Alambres:
Keto dieters can eat the Alambres, which are kind of like Fajitas: a platter of meat, peppers, onions, tons of cheese and bacon served with corn tortillas that can be left out for a delicious low-carb meal. Great topped with all the salsas, cilantro, etc from the condiment bar.
Huaraches:
Kind of like open-faced tacos on a thicker more doughy tortilla (think tamales) with a thin spread of black bean sauce. Topped with a crema, queso fresco, and a healthy portion of lettuce these are a great deal and are delicious.
La Especial:
The most expensive item on the menu is “La Especial” which is obviously food for 2 people. Basically a HUGE flank steak served on top of what amounts to a tortilla crust pizza with refried beans paste instead of tomato sauce. Comes with lettuce, avocado, tomato, and a delicious Oaxacan cheese. It also comes with slices of cactus which was very mild, almost like a slightly acidic cooked green pepper. If you’re feeling daring you can get it with Chapulines: roasted crickets marinated in lime juice, salt, and Adobo seasoning. I was pretty hesitant, but they are actually really good. If you can get over the mental barrier I assure you they are pretty tasty.
The space is nice and smells of delicious baked goods, with Mexican music playing in the background. The staff are friendly and if they don’t speak the best English you can just point to items on the Menu and get everything taken care of. You can dine-in or takeout and there is a $15-minimum on credit card orders. They have a nice selection of drinks (mexican coke, TopoChico, Jaritos soda, and more).
I can’t recommend Cornelio’s enough, and if you like traditional mexican food, sandwiches, and any kind of cake/pastries then you are missing out if you haven’t tried them.
Wow, yummy!
Restaurant and bakery features fresh pastries and incredible authentic Mexican food.
I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the mood for great home style cooking!!
The photo shows what is left from a little box of smaller cookies, and maybe a fourth of the huge pastry. Don’t judge. It was a 3 hour trip! Lol
