Las Mananitas

One of the best Mexican breakfast spots around here!! What a hidden gem, you would never suspect this place in the area that it is in. It is part of a food court inside a warehouse facing R street. Upon entering, you are greeted with a bright, spacious interior with light woods and exposed brick. You go up to the register to place an order and pay. It is extremely welcoming, and this is hightened by the workers' hospitality. These people are extremely friendly and love to chat. They are quick to answer any questions or tend to any request. Their food tastes homemade with love. I've had other dishes here, but you have to have to HAVE TO get the chilaquiles deluxe. Order it with any meat of your choice, but I suggest chili verde or chorizo. Ask for both green and red sauce and you have an incredibly complex plate of flavors. This dish is loaded with meat, homemade chips, eggs, beans, and sauce. It is so so good and I can not recommend it enough. I say all of this and I am not even a morning person. I don't even eat breakfast most days! But this place is truly something special. Will be coming back soon.

How sad is it that I have lived walking distance from this place since before they even opened, and this was my first visit? Like, I've been hearing about Las Mananitas pre-covid when they made the news because people were traveling from around the state to eat at the original location. The hours of operation were definitely played a role in it though. M-f I'm pretty much at work when they are open. Sure there's always the weekend, but with cost going up, we typically each out once a week these days. But I kid you not, 2 weeks ago, I've had friends namedrop Las Mananitas and their chilequiles within days of each other. And with the new year, the possibility of stopping in on Sundays just opened up for us. So yeah, my son and I walked over while 8 more made their way from where they were. We just ate at South of Shaw, and the whole, seat yourself, come to the register deal is ringing in my head. Rather than get our order started and be potentially eating by the time everyone arrives, we secure a table a wait. As we do so, it becomes apparent, this isn't a restaurant, it's a food court. There's just only one restaurant at the moment. And thank goodness, because there was not a single table available the entire time we were there. We look at the menu and chilequiles is on everyone's tongue. I have no interest on being like everyone else, so I settle on the shrimp taco with 2 street tacos on the side for good measure. Rather than make us all order at the register, they were gracious enough to take our order at the table. Son gets huevos rancheros, daughter gets Valiente omelet, wife splits chilaquiles to split with youngest. They others get pancakes, enchiladas, tacos, etc. As we wait, we feast on the chips and salsa. The chips are very good. Thicker then typical tortilla chips. The salsa is good, not too spicy. My kids make quick work of their horchata. Eventually, my impatient daughter becomes impatient. The funny thing is, she is one of the last to get her food. That honor belonged to me. Nevertheless, the food arrives for everyone. My street tacos look great. One asada, the other chile verde. The chile verde was a mistake. Not because it wasn't good, but because it ruined all 3 tacos. The juice from it made all the tortillas too weak to hold everything together, even though the tacos were served on 2 tortillas. As we ate, my brother-in-law kept talking about how good the coffee was. Bring a fellow coffee addict, I was intrigued and ordered my own. With only creamer added, it was so good. Not overly sweet, just enough. Good flavor. I continued with my tacos. It turns out, 3 street tacos would have probably sufficed, but now I have leftovers. The shrimp taco is huge for a taco. I believe 2 of them will absolutely stuff you. A bit spicy for my taste but still very good. My oldest loved his huevos rancheros and had food leftover for dinner. My daughter complained about all the peppers and onion in her Valiente omelet. Not a whole lot of ham and bacon as she hoped there would be. My youngest didn't like his chilaquiles. I suspect because my wife ordered the red sauce and not the green sauce. The chips used were the same as the complimentary ones at the table. I'm definitely getting them next time. When I make them, I make sure the chips are nice and crispy. I learned something today. Jamaica and jamaica are spelled the same. One the country, the other a hibiscus tea drink. I can't believe all it took was a capital letter to confuse me. All in all, the food was very good and reasonably priced. Not that I had to pay since my in-laws treated. Now comes the bad. The first 2 are negligible. Both to do with drinks. One, I told my son he wasn't getting any juice. He still got it. The other, my kids ordered 2 horchata, but only got 1. The major thing came with the bill. We didn't know they were going to add the tip to our bill. What ended up happening then was a $51 tip because we double payed. After a bit of back and forth at the table, we went to the front to sort it out. They were gracious enough to give the money back and we tipped in cash at the table.Overall, had a wonderful time. Great food. Large groups will need someone to arrive early to secure a table. Can't wait for other restaurants to open in the food court now

Second time eating at Las Mananitas but first time at this location. The first time I got the Mananitas bowl which was sooo good. This time I tried the chilaquiles. It comes with a side of beans. I didn't get it spicy but I wish I would have. The food here is very good and the service is friendly. Can't wait to go back and try something different!

Well well well if it isn't my favorite breakfast location in Fresno area. I'm super happy we are getting g a location in Clovis. Let me start off with the chilaquiles, this place has the best in the valley and you will not be disappointed. I'm glad they are far from me because I would be there every day if they were closer. Great service 10/10 and the location has plenty of seating.

I got Chilaquiles Delux, Chile verde with green sauce and cucumber lime fresca to wash it downMedium sauce on top & spicy sauce on the side It is flavorful, authentic chilaquiles.Employees and owner were friendly and provided great service.The newer location is hidden in a brick industrial Warehouse / Cold Storage building on R Street. Inside is modern, nice and clean with plenty of space and seating... great to bring the family, friends and kids.

Hands down one of my favorite breakfast spots in Fresno! Their new location inside of the Sun Stereo Warehouse downtown offers plenty of indoor seating and street parking. Their food feels so homemade and like every plate is made with love! Highly recommend the chilaquiles with asada!

Nice clean dining area inside and outside. Food came out quick and delicious, obviously the best chilaquiles in Fresno at this location and the original location on hazelwood . You get quite a bit of food for the price. Staff also very friendly.

Very good chilaquiles, I had the red ones. Perfect spice level. Great service; very attentive and personable. I'll be back!

Coming from CT where everything is pizza lovers I have to stop by and leave a review for this amazing Mexican food with great taste great customer service and great food.Hospitality and great atmosphere is also a key for them.Thanks for making my stay in Fresno way better.

The French toast was so good I think it's my new favorite and I love how open the space is inside. My friends loved their food they got chilaquiles
