Velma's Cafe - South Gate

This place should update their hours online. We came at 8:50am and it was indeed closed when listing says they open at 8am.

Service was great. The food was amazing! Portions were perfect! Definitely coming back again. Service: Dine in Meal type: Breakfast Price per person: $20–30 Recommended dishes: Steak and Eggs

B rating. That automatically tells me some nasty stuff happened. Service was slow. It was not a welcoming environment.

OPEN just stop by today and it's open !!! Hours are from Wednesday -Sunday 8am to 4pm

Food was great. Pictures provided are of both the milanesa de pollo plate and a small plate order of beef empanada . The empanada dough melts and the meat is very well braised also tender. The milanesa plate is a great mix of savory and sweet (onions on top give the sweet factor). I requested extra of the onions. I also forgot to mention that the chipotle homemade sauce that accompanies the empanada was an incredible pair. I did not try any postres (desserts). Only complaint I have unrelated to the food: suggest they buy softer napkins. The napkins provided are so rough on the skin. I came by at around 9am on a Wednesday and I suggest this time when it is not jam packed. The service is much more attentively when there are less customers. Lastly, can be a little pricey in my opinion so its not a place I would eat every week. I paid a total of $20.93 for 2 items (no drinks), in addition to tip.
