Our Guestbook
“ Three of us came into a busy Cafe. We were greeted and had a table very quickly. Our drinks were delivered shortly. We ordered and waited awhile for the food. When it came the presentation wad very good and the food was fabulous, you forgot about the wait as soon as you tasted the food. Definitely a place we will be returning to. It may even become our "favorite" place if the next time we visit our experience is as good. ”
“ Dropped in, looking for someplace different. We were greeted at the door by the owner with a very warm and inviting disposition. Even though we were a few minutes before the opened for dinner we were allowed to dine. For being in an older strip center the interior just popped with the black tables and chairs trimmed in chrome. There is a nice selection of colorful art work on the walls - available for sale, supporting a local artist. We were very comfortable. The menu had a lot of variety without being overwhelming. Both my wife and I selected the #5 combo which included a shredded beef taco, chili relano and a cheese enchilada with generous portions of rice and beans. The new owners have only been here since April and only last week opened for dinner for the first time. All in all, a very pleasant dining experience- I guarantee we’ll be back! ”
“ Fabulous tasting burger - and the burger was as big as the bun!!! Highly recommend! Had the Arizona burger. Yum! ”
“ I've been eating at restaurants in Tucson for 30 years and they have the BEST PANCAKE in town. And this is comparing it to other top notch breakfast places like Bisbee Breakfast Club and Baja Cafe. It's just...Perfect! I can’t speak for their lunch menu, but if you want an amazing pancake breakfast, come here! ”
“ The menu has something for everyone even the pickiest eater should be fine here. I went with their lunch special of the day tamale, rice, and beans but I feel you couldn't go wrong no matter what you choose. Service and food were both great. ”
“ Mother's Day breakfast. First time here. Jackie our waitress is AMAZING!!!!! Coffee cake is best I've had in town.
