Are you craving some delicious, homemade baked goods like mom used to make? Or a fresh, hot breakfast sandwich made from an egg that started its day in a shell, not a plastic bag? How about a couple hand made meatballs in a tomato gravy that's been excellent since it was being served in Little Italy in Newark, NJ some 80 years ago?

I came here because the rating is at 4.8 and I was not disappointed! I had the breakfast tacos topped with hash browns - and I’m not a hash brown person but they were so deliciously crispy.
Dining in felt like I was eating in a family kitchen, the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming.
And I left with a pair of coco nutty delight cookies that taste like an almond joy.
Will definitely be back to try more! I was told the biscuits and gravy are amazing.

So I will start by saying Wow!! Amazing food beef chorizo tacos with eggs avocado and salsa there was so much flavor to this tacos and yes with a Mexican bottle coke it was a perfect combination, home fries were done perfectly crispy in the outside and soft on the inside. Real home made goods like cookies, crumble cake, buttermilk biscuits ect made fresh, was really good definitely a must try the owner were so hospitable and attentive I completely love it definitely coming back.

I'm so glad we stopped here for lunch! They were highly rated for their coffee which is what drew us in originally. The staff were absolutely lovely and a blast to chat with. Their penne vodka was delicious! A small part of our order got forgotten, so our waitress gave us free cookies. It was such an unexpected surprise. I'll definitely stop by next time I'm in Tucson again.

Let me first say this is probably the friendliest restaurant I have ever been in. They treat you like royalty. The food, not so good. The reviews are amazing so we tried it. I'm not sure what is in the cole slaw, but it was sweeter than candy. I took one bite and almost choked. Isn't this a savory dish? The rest of the food looked delicious, but it was either dry or overly greasy. I feel bad writing a bad review because they're so nice, but the food needs a little work. I won't be back, but others can judge for themselves. Maybe it's better for breakfast.

My husband and I love this place. Great service and fantastic food! The food is comfort food like mac and cheese, meatloaf, pasta dishes - you know what I mean. The food is made from fresh ingredients and the best ingredients out there. I'd say this restaurant is like going to your good cook friend's house - nothing commercial about it. DELICIOUS!!! And the portions are so big, one would easily feed two, but you have to know when to stop because it tastes so good you may not be able to!
