This place is always packed with patrons. It's fine if you don't want to sit down. The coffee is good but the food is nothing special. Lately I've been wondering why they're open. Outside, people are waiting to enter. I heard one woman ask someone to leave as it is not unreasonable. Also, I prefer places that accept credit cards. Strange time to work with cash. Strange time to open a coffee shop.

"Outwardly it does not look very good, but inside it is not much better. However, the food did not disappoint! The pancakes are so big that they hang from all the edges of the plate. They come in stacks of 3, but you can only get 1 if you want. My companions had 2 different types of pancakes which we all tried. They were delicious, but very sweet! I had french toast as recommended by my clients. The two slices of bread were about 2 inches thick and took up the entire plate! It was amazing, but I couldn't even finish 1 piece.I recommend visiting with a friend and sharing a dish. The food is good, but the sizes are ridiculous! I will definitely be back!"

Good food and fast Service

Such good food and great service!!

Awesome Customer Service an excellent food

Best breakfast sandwich.. ever! The bread was amazing, the bacon and eggs perfect! I don't ever order a breakfast sandwich but this was so perfect I can't wait to go back for another. The menudo my friend ordered was evidently just as fabulous. Very good reason they have been in business since the 50's!

Always great food No matter what time you go in. They have daily and weekly specials. The Menudo is daily and is so good. The Albondigas are also good. They also have more options on the daily for the soups. The Tapioca here is perfect.Our go to place.

Services is great! The owner and the waitress are on top of their game, always there for you. The place is very comfortable with lots of booth seats, clean and food choices are plenty and delicious! We usually go for breakfast and on the weekend they have full house, but the wait has not been outrageously long, and they have a good size parking lot.

Our families favorite breakfast restaurant! Food and service is always great! Their menudo is the best in the valley in my opinion!!

solid reasonably priced diner that looks like it has been an institution of the area.fairly priced with lots of options. standard diner fare and i would imagine lots of regulars here with a staff that has been here a long time. it just has that vibe.went with a friend who comes here all the time and i had the open face turkey sandwich. turkey was freshly made as were the mashed potatoes (real lumps and a chicken gravy). tasty and a nice portion.would make a return.
