Welcome to Connie's Mexico Cafe  Web site!

    In 1953, Rafael Lopez and Conception (Connie) Rocha came to the United States, married and started to fulfill their American Dream. Rafael joined the United States Army. He went on to fight in WWII and Korean War. Upon his arrival back to Wichita he decided to stay and work at McConnell Air Force Base. Rafael and Connie had a daughter, Carmen Lopez. Connie was a maid and fabulous cook, with hard work and a collection of family recipes; they established Connie's Mexico Cafe in 1963.

   Connie's was initially known for it's delicious flour tacos, but the Lopez family decided to  expand the menu to include burritos. At that point, Connie and Carmen began rolling out by hand the "huge" flour burrito tortillas, and the rest is history! "Burritos" are the specialty of the house, but the other entrees are just as delicious! We have the distinction of being the oldest, family owned Mexican Restaurant, thanks to our loyal customers.

  Today, Carmen and her five daughters continue the family tradition of serving the "best" Mexican food in Wichita, upholding the legacy of the big-hearted hospitality and community patronage. Everyone knows that to eat the BEST Mexican food, you visit the Mexican neighborhood (El Barrio), where authentic homemade Mexican food originated. We are proud to be WICHITA'S OLDEST FAMILY OWNED MEXICAN RESTAURANT: still specializing in our old fashioned food. So, tell a friend about us!!

Digale un amigo!

Thank you for allowing us to share our heritage with you.
