Ome Calli Café was born from both family and transformation. Before Ome Calli, Miguel, Antonio, Hector, and Liliana created The Mictlan Mexican Vegetarian Cuisine — a project rooted in the vegan and vegetarian Mexican dishes they grew up loving and sharing together. What began as a passion for flavorful, plant-based Mexican food soon became something much deeper.
During that journey, their son Leon was diagnosed with a condition that made food and nutrition an essential part of his everyday life. That experience completely shifted the family's perspective on wellness and inspired them to create a space where nourishing food could still feel comforting, familiar, and full of flavor. They wanted a place where Leon — and the community around them — could enjoy meals and drinks made with intention, care, and love.
As they continued building their dream, they also discovered how challenging it can be to grow a business while raising a family. Over time, The Mictlan evolved into Ome Calli Café, creating an opportunity for the entire family to work together under one roof while building a healthier balance between family life and entrepreneurship.
