| - Really good neighborhood cafe for breakfast and brunches :) I have been here like 4 times and each time, they had great service and good food. In terms of creativity of the menu, this place beats Cracker Barrel but does not have as adventurous a menu as Crackers and Co Cafe, down the road.
The ambience is kind of like a comfortable neighbourhood eatery where u go to for dinner if you are too tired to cook. Comfortable seats, lots of natural light thru their diner looking windows and a staff that will probably get to know your name after a few times.
Food wise, like what the other reviewers said, they make a mean biscuit. I know, not everybody is a big fan of it, so get their pancakes instead. They do put in some biscuit batter in it to give it a very different feeling. But dun just go there for biscuits haha, other stuff like egg and sausage, are very standard breakfast stuff. Do check out the portugese sausage instead of the regular ones, a lot more flavorful and a little spicy. I also had lunch here before, they have a smoked chicken jalapeno alfredo. I like it very much, its got a lot of chicken and quite a bit of cheese over it. True the jalapeno does not make it spicy enough for my liking, but its fusion italian so I guess the jalapeno is to enhance its flavor and not dominate it. Also jalapeno in az is not spicy, if you want spicy pasta, maybe ask them to add a pinch of habanero to the sauce to spice it up. Its by far one of the best fusion pasta I have had before. I know its not those fancy fusion food where u get two bites worth of food and U are still hungry and end up with a big check. This is a pretty decent size plate which will keep you full and happy.
I hear they have an excellent fish fry too on Friday, but like others who reviewed it, they seem to close a little earlier. But its fine, just go earlier if you really mean to eat there ! :) or else just do brunch there on a lazy weekend, you will likely be satisfied. Else let the owners know, they are usually at the counter or going around refilling coffee and asking if you enjoyed your meal and such.
