Villa Mexico Cafe

Hello my friends! We had a wonderful surprise yesterday when shared the video of their visit to our home!

This lovely couple are showing what real food is like in different ethnicities and sharing meals with people to learn about cultures. They are thoughtful and funny! And, in a time where it seems we're more different than equal, ideas like these can show people that we are all humans. Thank you Carlo and Sarah, it came out great 🥰!!!

If you don't know us, welcome! People call me "Momma King" and we are from Mexico City and Puebla. If you come to the restaurant, please give us some grace and time in case we get extra busy with new friends visiting us from seeing this episode. Thank you ❤️!!!

We had a busy weekend, despite the on and off rain, our outdoor seating area is built out and next is the decorating!

We have a specific idea for this year's patio, and we hope you will enjoy it. Hint: it's related to our neighborhood in Mexico City.

While some things arrive to finish our design completely, please visit us this week and start using the seating area with your food order!

Summer is here, COME EAT!

Dear friends, things are not easy for everyone right now. We understand that. We also know that people who open a food business and work for one are making a choice.

This is not a glamorous industry; there are long hours, stinky/hot spaces, lifting and carrying, and endless work to be done daily. But we love it.

Food business owners and workers don’t just join this industry for fun; we love what we do with food, with people, with service, with our blood, sweat, and tears.

Clover opened its first location when we were at the gas station in Beacon Hill. One of our customers, a lovely lady who always orders a veggie burrito 😊, began working for them at the food truck, then got promoted to operations at the brick-and-mortar, and went on to open more shops as part of her job.

We always heard that it was a great place, and while we didn’t really eat there often, we knew people liked it and they shared our business values. Local food, fair pay, community-driven. As we’ve struggled to bounce back, it is heartbreaking to see this business close all locations and wonder what will happen to its people. Having just escaped this scenario, it is a stress and pain we do not wish upon anyone.

To the Clover team members: we are currently hiring for 2 kitchen positions. We’re not as big or, perhaps, fancy as the food you may have made, but we’re fresh, authentic, and we start at $16 an hour and increase by the full dollar. Our current staff has been with us for almost 5 years each, post-covid, and we all take a two-week holiday break for Christmas and New Year’s. If you speak Spanish, have line experience, are willing to multitask, and want to make Mexican food, please come by to get an application.

We truly hope you all find work soon and keep in touch with each other ❤️.

To the customers and general public: if you have $20 extra bucks every month, spentld it at a local food business if your buy food. We all need you, and we all want to stay open. Come eat 🙏.

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY to all the Heroes that gave their life to protect this Country. Special memories and love to my Husband and Bessie King' Dad CWO ROBERT E. KING, who lived, fought and loved the United States.

We had a wonderful catering drop off last night at for the opening night of Oedipus El Rey!

Hoping everyone enjoy the food, and we appreciate being included in this evening with authentic Mexican food for the occasion!

Thank you, friends!

Happy Mother's Day weekend to all the mamacitas!

Thank you for giving me an eventful week, and I hope you have a beautiful weekend!!!

❤️ Momma King
