The service, the food, the coffee everything here is perfect!

Very good service and food was out in probably 5 minutes. The staff was great and so was the food.

I was killing time in between jobs when this place popped up on my search, so I decided to give it a shot. While I initially wanted something quick—fast food style if you will, the dine in service got the job done. Walked in around 8am and was quickly seated. Less than a dozen people at the time. The cozy dinning area sat about 40. By the time I left the amount of people sitting downed had doubled. The server was the sweetest person ever. I sat down, she took my order, I went to wash my hands, came back and my coffee was waiting for me. I dolled up my coffee, and right after a test sip, my sandwich arrived. Fast. Maybe it was just the perfect time to come in, but it worked. I could have rushed the check to keep my time under 15mins, but I decided to soak in a bit. Overall, the food was hot and fresh, the staff seemed personable-especially with their regulars, and the service was quick. What more could anyone ask for? Easy 5-stars imo. Would come back if I was in the area. 👍

On a whim, I ate at this restaurant which is located in a strip mall with a cramped parking lot. Restaurant is sandwiched between 7-11 and a dry cleaner. I came around 1:15pm and was lucky to find parking space. Restaurant closes at 2pm. Restaurant is small, quaint and has a friendly vibe that offers local and good, affordable food. They have outdoor seatings so I sat outdoor to enjoy the sun and fresh air. Ordered a curry chicken sandwich on grilled raisin bread and a spring mix salad with candied walnuts, cranberries, feta cheese and cherry tomatoes. There were two sandwiches that came with a bag of potato chips and a cookie. The curry chicken sandwich filling was piled high. I got full after eating one sandwich and packed the other sandwich to go. As for the salad, I was surprised how generous it was in a large bowl. It too came with a cookie. The salad was fresh, cherry tomatoes tasted like they were freshly picked and sweet. I ate only 1/4 of the salad and packed the rest to go. Waitstaff was attentive and checked on me a few times. This place reminds me that time has stand still, homey place, generous and quality food at a budget friendly price point. You can tell this is a local favorite as silver foxes were here and they know what a good meal is.This place is pet friendly on the outside tables. I will be back to try the breakfast items and baked goods.

Wonderful service, excellent food and very reasonable prices. I didn't take a picture of my blueberry muffin before devouring it, but the spinach croissant was delicious. I will definitely be going back to this gem.

The service and prices were excellent. I only got a coffee and a pastry but the lovely woman at the cashier turned my breakfast snack into an experience. She heated my cinnamon roll, put some whipped butter in it and left me enough room in my mocha for a lovely helping of whipped cream. It was amazing. I will be back.

Great little local spot for breakfast. Menu is great and food is good. The service was perfect. My coffee never gets cold there.

We were visiting the area and searching for something reasonably priced, which we found very difficult. Not only was this place a good value, it was excellent! The food was amazing and the staff were friendly, hard working, and skilled at running around a busy restaurant with their hands full. We were very impressed all around, when we’re in town we’ll be back!

Great family style restaurant. Friendly service, good portion size and good food. Everything you want from your neighborhood restaurant.

This was the first time I've been to this restaurant and I liked the quaint atmosphere. I really enjoyed the "split pea soup!" The 2 female waitresses were exceptionally friendly and courteous! The turkey BLT sandwich that I had was good, however the turkey tasted a bit refrigerated...

Really enjoyed the 3 choices. Patty melt, Turkey, and Basil Turkey. Very popular place. Much more of a restaurant than a deli "to-go" place (that is a good thing).

I’ve been coming here for about 7 years now and it’s our go to spot. We’re there about every other week. This is the first year my team catered from here and they above and beyond for us! Jennifer the owner is so sweet! We are a huge corporate store and our team loved the food so much we catered more. Definitely love this place. I take every one here who visits from out of town too!

Excellent service - friendly staff. The blueberry pancakes were amazing! Best place for breakfast in La Mesa.

The food was delish. The waitress was very accommodating. Portions are large and prices are down to earth. Great neighborhood spot. I had the breakfast burrito which has a lot of competition all around, but this one was perfection. At 930am on a Thursday, they were basically full with diners. Probably a lot of regulars... You should be one too.

The food is beyond amazing! You get a lot of bang for your buck. Everything is fresh, including the bakery items, hot right out of the oven. The staff, the service, phenomenal. Only place I brunch!

This is the BEST place for Breakfast, Brunch & Lunch!! Everything I've had is delicious! The biscuits & gravy are the best I've ever had! The chili is hearty and perfect. I've never had better orange juice either! Oh! And the baskery items... to die for!

Fantastic customer service! The food came out very quick and tasted very good. A lot of regular locals come here and I can see why!

I wanted to like this cute little cafe. Unfortunately, out of 4 sandwiches, 4 were disappointing. The bread wasn't good, dry and bland across the board. Egg salad completely underwhelming. TAB and BTLA had hardly any avocado spread and bacon hard as a rock. Total bummer. Soup ok but way too thick. Likely not returning.

Great Service, wonderful , tasty & very fresh food. The atmosphere is calm. I enjoyed dining in at this establishment.

This is a nice local diner with friendly service. The menue is missing turkey sausage and bacon. The pancakes were great and coffee good.

Old school and tasty. Great breakfast. Bigger than you might think. Great service. Solid American cafe.

It was great. I ordered takeaway. Toast was crunchy, omelet tasted great, hashbrowns were amazing. Something really important, they packaged it with paper under hot food. This is to prevent the Styrofoam from melting into the food. A lot of places in the county haven't been doing this. It shows the business cares about their customers health, their food, their business, and the employees are professionals. Very important.

This little cafe is quaint and super adorable, has a homey-vibe, service is great and the food is so good. The meals do taste like something homemade but I mean that in the best way, like a dish you're really good at making at home with all the works. Not greesy and generic like some breakfast spots. Definitely my new favorite place for breakfast, have yet to try lunch here. It's a small cafe so not too much outdoor seating but that's the best place to eat in the morning before the sun beats down (they do have more indoor seating as well). Absolutely recommend giving this place a try!
