“ 5 star definitely fulfilled the hype. The food was amazing. We went on Tuesday. It's 3 tacos for $10 (normally $5 each). I got the crunchy chicken tinga, soft carne asada, and soft shrimp taco. They brought us free chips and the staff were very friendly. The decor is nice and everything is high quality. Chairs, tables, napkins, plates, silverware. Next time I would like to get crunchy shredded beef, carnitas, and carne asada tacos ”

“ Food was great. I ended up getting chicken burrito and my friend got the steak salad. I wish I got the salad . Loved the burrito but that steak salad was special... Like uniquely good. I'd come back here just for that salad. Interior is clean and quiet. Not too much foot traffic. Leading to a quaint experience. Staff was also helpful in helping me make a to go order vegetarian. ”

“ This might be my new favorite brunch spot in the OC! Chuponcito thrives on its bold flavors that are perfectly balance. Nothing is too strong in the best way. For example, the drinks. This horchata latte is better than I've had at other places because it's not too sweet and still provides a good coffee flavor without losing the sense of the horchata. My favorite though was the banana latte which isn't too forward but is still unique. The regular horchata is on the lighter side but it's refreshing and doesn't leave you feeling heavy. The burritos seem pricy but they're hefty. The kids menu burrito is probably the size of a burrito elsewhere and the regular breakfast burritos could possibly be shared. Personally I liked the bacon one more than the chorizo one but the chorizo has a nice spice to it. The star though is the hot sauce. Whatever pepper they used to make it has a kick to it that lingers and burns in the way you want the spicyness to. I also sampled the carnitas benedict. I strongly dislike cilantro, and I felt like that cilantro hollandaise wasn't too strong. In fact the flavors were great. Additionally, the service was wonderful. They were patient with us as we took time to decide and were attentive to us which is great especially with a toddler. Overall, this is a great spot and I can't wait to come back again. ”

“ Nice little spot tucked in the corner and Aliso Viejo. Looking forward to trying a few more other dishes. My kids had the French toast and enjoyed it. It's not a traditional French toast, but had plenty of flavor and whipped cream. The breakfast burrito was a little greasier than my last one, but that didn't stop me from devouring it. I asked for light on the potatoes, and I still thought there was a little too much but like I said that didn't stop me. The burritos are huge and honestly most people could probably split one. The prices are slightly on the higher side, but only a little and the food quality seems to be really good. Looking forward to trying the eggs Benedict with Carnitas. Friendly staff and quaint spot with plenty of tables for seating and tall counter seats next to the window. After breakfast, my son who is 10 said "I would definitely come back here, Dad" ”

“ Choponcito is a cute, quaint brunch spot in Aliso Viejo that was packed on the Saturday morning my boyfriend and two of our friends visited. My boyfriend and I enjoyed sharing the carnitas eggs benedict and the chilaquiles. The banana flan latte I ordered was just okay. The four of us sat at a communal table in the middle of the small restaurant since that's the only seating we could find. It worked for us, but if you're looking for a quiet brunch spot, this is not the place. ”

“ Great brunch spot- I'd call it a hidden gem in south county. Located an unassuming a strip mall, parking is easy. You order at the counter and grab a seat. They have indoor and outdoor tables as well as counter spots. We came on a Sunday and while the place was pleasantly bustling, there was no wait. Friendly service, cozy contemporary decor, and absolutely delicious food. I loved my chilaquiles. Bonus points for the lovely cloth napkins they provide- just a very charming touch. I look forward to coming back! ”

“ Cozy is the feel, breakfast is its deal. A large table sits centered in their dining space and radiates its communal vibes throughout. Sit there and socialize; you may be sitting next to your future best friend. THE FOOD. - Carnitas Benedict | Tender carnitas. Soft English muffin to soak up the creamy cilantro Hollandaise sauce. Side of crisp hashbrowns. Definitely a dish to re-order over and over again (I have). - Chilaquiles | Crispy tortilla chips coated in a creamy tomato-based sauce with slices of fresh avocado and an over easy egg on top. Seriously good. It's one of my favorite dishes here. - El Chupon | A breakfast burrito with potatoes scrambled eggs, and chorizo. It comes with an avocado-type dipping sauce. Reminds me of Off the Grill's (now closed) chorizo burrito. RIP, Off the Grill. - Asada Salad | The asada was a little tender, but could use a little more seasoning. A light cotija sauce was tossed into the romaine lettuce, as well as slices of cherry tomatoes, onions, and cheese (also cotija). The presentation was simple, but it could use some ingredients to contrast the flavor more. - Chile Verde | Braised pork, beans & cheese, Spanish rice, house made tortillas. Pretty good. - Chips and Salsa | Housemade tortilla chips and nicely spiced salsa. Delicious. THE DRUNK DRINKS. - Sangria | It came in a small glass and it wasn't overly sweet. COMING BACK? I've actually been here several times for breakfast. Arguably, one of the best spots around! ”

“ I visited here twice in September while back home visiting my family. My brothers live nearby and come here often. It's a tiny little place, but the people working there are fantastic and the food is exceptional. I would definitely go back next time I'm in town. They give you complimentary chips and salsa. We also ordered a side of Guacamole and it was excellent. On my first visit I got the Chicken Enchiladas. On my second visit I got the shredded beef Tacos. Both were very good. The rice and beans are top notch also. ”
