I have yet to try their lunch or dinner. Great service. Servers are super helpful and friendly. Plenty of parking as they have their own lot. Their building is hard to miss.

Excellent food, service, and ambience. I ordered the…read moreavocado croissant toast and a side of hashed browns. The croissant was flaky and soft, the poached eggs on top were perfectly cooked, and the arugula piled on top added a nice peppery element. The hashed browns were also excellent: crispy and crunchy on the outside, moist and almost buttery inside. Clean restaurant and attentive service.

It felt like I stepped…read moreback in time to one of those mid-century diners not over the top, but cozy like one of those hidden gems where you know you're gonna get really good food! First off the coffee was fire! I ordered a regular coffee with creamer and sugar and that's all I needed. Somehow they brew it with a little bit of magic and I love how it's in the traditional diner mugs! I ordered the fancy banana waffles, and let me tell you I was not expecting it to have the crisp crème brûlée topping on each banana caramel banana goodness! And the butter taste like butterscotch they whip the butter with magic as well! My husband got the strawberry sundae waffles, and as you can see there to die for too. Last would definitely not lease was the service the servers and the host here are amazing, super friendly, and checked up on us to make sure our coffee in our water never hit the halfway point! Definitely check this place off your list for a good authentic diner experience.

There was no wait, and I was able to sit at the counter immediately. Service was quick and efficient. I ordered the pancake plate with scrambled eggs and bacon, along with a side of the peppered candied bacon and a glass of milk. Everything arrived as ordered, and the peppered candied bacon was especially good. The visit went smoothly, and I'm glad I decided to return. Good food, attentive service, and an enjoyable breakfast from beginning to end.

I recommend their Cali burrito which is basically mushroom, spinach, egg, and potato inside this filled tortilla wrap. It has this nice aioli sauce that pairs great with it. I myself, love lots of hot sauce with this. This burrito has NO meat just FYI but it's clean tasting and will get you full. My wife ordered their grilled cheese egg benedict which was tasty and cheesy. It's more on the salty side of things but it's so good and one of their most popular dishes. Their menu consists of unique items which all sound so good! Can't go wrong with either dish. Also, I recommend getting a house coffee; not sure which beans they use but it's tasty!

We hadn't eaten all day so we were starved. We're very familiar with Tower's burgers, so that's exactly what we went with. I got The All American Burger with bacon and my wife went with The Borracho Burger. Both are 1/2 pounders, and are highly recommended! Service was great and being it was Halloween night the majority of the staff were decked out in kooky costumes!

We arrived around 10am on Sunday August 9th, 2026 for brunch. We immediately put our name in and…read morewere told that the wait is around an hour. We gave them our phone number and that I turn gave us a wait list update. They have a cool app. It shows you how many people are in line, how many in each party and how long each group has been waiting. It made me feel more confident that the wait time was fair. They weren't just cherry picking who got seated next. No buying your way to the front of the line. The wait time was standard and according to my husband part of the experience. I tried to get our group's eta in hopes that we could get there 30-45 minutes before the rest of the group so we all didn't have to wait that long, but instead we all arrived at practically the same time. Thankfully there was no complaining. My husband did get everyone drinks at the bar while we were waiting so that helped. At one time the Pozole was only offered on their brunch menu, now it appears you can order it all day. I tried to order it earlier this year and I was denied. Either way I was craving it so I ordered it. It was really good. I loved doing all the cabbage to the soup and eating it that way. I left out the red pepper flakes as I'm not that into spice. The meat was only Ok as there was a lot of fat. I ate around it, but it was kind of gross at the amount of fat that was attached to the meat. I didn't put the tortilla chips into the soup. I tried one as the last bite of meal and ohhh it was spicy. It felt like it was covered in jalapeños. I check them out and it appears that there is some kind of spice attached to them. My husband had the French Connection A petite slice of our Famous French Toast served with whipped maple butter, two poached eggs and Applewood smoked bacon. He said the poached eggs were a bit plain. The French toast was superb. It is the famous secret recipe of custard soaked French bread topped with in-house whipped maple butter. I had a bite and it was so yummy.I could feel the custard. My husband commented that it wasn't too sweet which was good as he's not an overly sweet lover. I would order it another time for brunch. I wouldn't get poached eggs. I'd probably get fried eggs as I'm a fan of fried eggs. The ambiance was great. The interior was just lovely. So creatively decorated. Service was good even though they were busy. Our waitress came to check on us several times. Parking was tough. There wasn't any spaces in the lot so we parked on the street. All of the parking on the street right outside the parking lot was all taken so we parked on a side street that didn't have any restrictions on the weekend. Most streets were a no parking zone unless you have a permit any day of the week. We were here again Oct. 21, 2026 for dinner after a movie at Tower. We were quoted that wait time was 20 minutes and that was accurate. I like their wait app. You can watch yourself move up on the wait list and it also counts how long you've been waiting so you don't have to do them math.

Not only was their regular team there working as hard as they could but other local chefs, bartenders, and friends came to help feed the community one more time. Unfortunately, I arrived right after 2pm and joined the line only to find out about fifteen minutes later that the had completely sold out of food. The owner N'Gina gave a beautiful speech and the restaurant started clearing out of regular diners. I stayed to give my thanks and was blown away by the community and love that came through. They were still serving drinks and you could see how much love there was for N'Gina and this amazing business. So many people came through just to say thank you and wish her luck on her future endeavours. I found a spot at the bar and hung out for a couple hours talking to other chefs, business owners, and customers and everyone was not ready to say goodbye to this amazing establishment and the incredible food N'Gina brought to the restaurant. Their team ended up giving me a bowl of their staff dinner- fries, mac and cheese and pulled pork and I was so thankful for one last taste of this amazing restaurant before they closed for good.

I've been meaning to visit Jim Denny's for a while…read morenow, and ever since South closed (RIP), I knew I had to make my way over once I heard the iconic Mrs. N'Gina Guyton had taken over this beloved Sacramento spot. I'm such a fan of her food! My boyfriend and I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon about an hour before closing, and to our surprise, the owner herself took our order -- such a treat! I ordered the shrimp po' boy with a side of fried cauliflower, while he got the double patty cheeseburger with mac & cheese. We also tried their house-made lemonade and an Arnold Palmer. Here's how everything rated: * Shrimp Po' Boy: 3.75/5 * Double Cheeseburger: 3.5/5 * Mac & Cheese: 4.5/5 * Fried Cauliflower: 3.5/5 The shrimp had a great crust, and that romesco sauce with the buttery fried cauliflower was seriously addictive. The burger had a nice kick thanks to the hot link tucked inside, and the mac & cheese? So creamy and cheesy--definitely a standout. The lemonade leaned more tart than sweet, and the Arnold Palmer was refreshingly solid. Service was fast, friendly, and efficient. I loved that they kept the classic diner booths, vintage signs, and old-school decor--it all added to the charm, especially with the throwback jams playing in the background. Already planning my return to try the catfish sandwich, honey butter cornbread, and hopefully get my hands on one of their desserts next time--they were all sold out by the time we arrived! So you can tell how popular these items are, yum!

The Oreo pancakes, banana French toast, and stuffed hash browns were absolutely incredible. These are not your typical breakfast options, they are unique, delicious, and definitely worth trying! This place is truly a hidden gem that everyone needs to experience. The owner's story is captivating, and hearing it made us appreciate the restaurant and the heart behind it even more. We cannot wait to go back! If you haven't been here yet, GO. This place is a MUST!

If you are looking for bad service , do not come here…read more Today, I was introduced to this gem of a community diner by a friend. Right away, Mama Goose (the waitress confessed this as her nickname) greeted me with a no nonsense and friendly attitude. This is a person you would hope to greet you, and at the same time you would never want to cross. The interior was very throwback to a time when this diner likely first experienced its hay-day several decades ago. Everything was clean, and the bathroom was so big, it was the size of my first apartment in San Francisco. Water refills were fast, and I ordered an omelette with no meat. It was very tasty, but the potatoes really stole the show with its perfectly crisp and seasoned portions. The prices are very fair/affordable. I felt welcomed here, just like I was visiting a friend in their home. It is clear that regular patrons keep coming back, and all are remembered by the staff. I highly recommend this experience!
