They have entrance off the side right now (idk if coz of Covid), and have the exit at the door facing Front St. There are nice partitions in between tables so patrons are separated from each other. They have a paper specials menu, and the regular menu is thru a QR code. Idk if i was just hungry from my walk in the park, or what. But the food I had is amazing! I had the Granolacoco pancakes at the suggestion of the waiter. Coffee was strong, excellent, and hot. Service was very cordial, fast, and efficient! Can't wait to come back for more ! read more

A great spot for breakfast and lunch! Delicious food and friendly staff. Lenora is so kind! I love supporting local businesses and this is a fantastic spot! Come in, sit wherever you want, enjoy the vibes. I personally recommend the French toast- it's the best I've ever had! My boyfriend loves the eggs Benedict. They also have a great weekly specials menu! read more

Authentic, delicious food! Have ordered so many different things off the menu and loved each of them.

This has always deliver top quality food. Every time I visit people in New Jersey, I always make an effort to make it out to Lenora's. Honestly, for as many times I have come, I only ever get item. I always get the Chilaquiles with over-medium eggs. Every time, it comes out banging! It has never been soggy, the eggs are cooked perfectly, and the touch of avocado and sour cream as the garnish is too good. The only reason I am not giving it a 5 star, is because the of the way the place looks. It is a very old school design, that hasn't changed in anyway for years. They had put up a few decorations for Christmas, but all of the permanent pictures as things could use a bit of an over haul. read more

Everything on the menu is delicious!!! Friendly staff. Clean environment. Good prices for large portions! Small little cafe with big flavor! Highly recommend! read more

I stopped in for lunch and decided on the Pernil Chimichanga. The presentation was good and the taste was great. The perfect atmosphere inside and I will be making this one of my regular stops. They have many more dishes than just Mexican food and it seems they have a very deep breakfast menu as well which I will come back for next time. Highly recommended. read more

Lenora's Cafe is a great breakfast option in Keyport. They offer freshly squeezed orange juice and homemade soups. Almost everything on the menu is delicious and it is not greasy. They also started offering dinner. Overall, great spot that has delicious options! read more

Service is awesome and so are the owners Lenora and Paco. They always make everyone feel like they are family. This place is a must, must must for any foodie. Prices are great too! read more

This hole in the wall dinner has some of the most tasty food among a crowded diner landscape in NJ. Some Latin flare and homemade goodness delivered by attentive servers - wish the coffee was good and then it would be off the carts. Small upgrade in the coffee quality could turn this into a line out the door place. read more

Amazing! Never a disappointment! Staff is very friendly and efficient. Food is wonderful

If I had the ability and the authority I would definitely give this restaurant a Michelin Star. The restaurant is very clean and well maintained. The atmosphere has very good vibes, great for a family dining style setting. The food is outstanding, the service is absolutely phenomenal (Noted as the best and freshest breakfast food). The timing between seating and receiving your order is perfect. The quality of the food is fresh and well prepared. The staff is friendly, professional, and they take and carry out the food orders with great precision. This restaurant is nothing short of excellence. read more

This was probably the hardest review for me yet! This little restaurant located in downtown Keyport is truly amazing and theres no doubt about that. I went with a friend and I was famished so I ordered the Mexican omelette and I believe the Banana Crunch Waffle. The Mexican Omelette although very good wasn't amazing. I would order it again but it just didn't WOW me or my taste buds. This consisted of egg, chorizo,onions, cheese, and sour cream all on top of soft tortilla. Now the Banana Crunch Waffle was out of this world amazing!! This consited of banana, a sweet crunchy topping, Carmel sauce, and powdered sugar on a Belgian waffle! This was out this world amazing it is the perfect combination of ingredients! The waffle was prepared perfectly so soft and the toppings weren't overpowering so you could still enjoy the taste of the waffle. I would Definitely come back to order just this waffle on a rainy day to brighten up my day! The reason this was the hardest review for me because although it may seem as if I am singing their praises, unfortunately the service was not up to par. Through out my experience there I ordered some water to go with my hot chocolate and had to ask for it THREE times before it came. Than my friend ordered a soup and they bought her out the wrong one, the gust next to me didnt receive his complete order. When we asked for more time to look over the menu we were practically stranded there at the table waiting for the waitress to come back. Lastly we ordered a chicken Caesar wrap and were given the Caesar salad. If only one mishap occurred it wouldn't bother me/us but for this to happen all in one sitting it was quite annoying! So, even with all that being said I would certainly come back for the food!! The service just needs to improve on and than they will surely get Five stars from me! read more

We found this cute little restaurant by accident one morning. The restaurant is small only about 15 tables , but it does not feel cramped and is decorated very nicely. The coffee is very good here . We tried several dishes . We had waffles with strawberries,bananas and peaches . My only complaint was the peaches were from a can , while the other fruits were fresh . The corned beef hash was excellent, had alot of flavor. The chicken tacos were flavorless and only contained chicken and cilantro, the red sauce with it tasted like warm tomato sauce . The buffalo wings were the smallest wings I've ever seen and had no flavor . The staff was very friendly and they worked as a team to make sure everyone was well taken care of . I would definitely come back for the breakfast dishes . read more

Nice neighborhood spot. I usually get eggs/omelette. Service is quick and efficient. The place is very cute

Excellent food, not to me mention the generous portions and great prices. Very family oriented and wonderful service. Well recommended!

Found this great little gem one day when we were going to Sandy Hook. Planned on Perkins as I haven't been there in ages. Since there was like 40 people outside waiting, I was like Oh hellz no. So I did what one should always do, turned to Yelp. This place was literally 7 minute from Perkins and was a great find. There was no wait, however, there was only two tables left when we go there. I had the Lenora Tostata which was fantastic! Everyone in my group thoroughly enjoyed our meal and the atmosphere was clean and friendly. read more

Such a good breakfast spot! I came here with my fiancé after staying overnight nearby for a wedding the day before and happened to come across Lenora's Cafe on yelp. Really happy that we gave it a try because our breakfast was SO flavorful! I had a special that day which was some sort of Mexican style eggs Benedict that came on a crispy tortilla with chorizo, cheese, beans, poached eggs and a spicy hollandaise on top. If I lived closer then I would be here all the time! read more

A new favorite spot, thank you Yelp for helping me find a breakfast, lunch, and dinner place. They have counter service and tables/chairs, TVs around in a warmly and brightly decorated place. Service was friendly, polite, attentive... food was AWESOME.. Prices are reasonable, but can get expensive when you start ordering more than one thing because everything sounds delicious. Coffee is Lacas... I don't know it but it was also delicious :) read more

Wow. I've lived down here since 2012, my husband since way before that, and we never ever knew this place existed! Found it on yelp, and decided to try it today for breakfast. Got the breakfast quesadilla. Changed chorizo to bacon and skipped beans. Delicious. Perfectly cooked and eggs were fluffy and fresh. Husband had the chiliquiles. Loved it. The green salsa was spicy and it was a good portion Small oj is pretty big. They top off your coffee without being prompted. 22 dollars for all of it. No wait and friendly service. Left a star off because they were full of older people and young children and played popular songs with inappropriate content. read more

I went to the Keyport Antique Festival and came here for lunch. My friend had heard such good things about it so we decided to give it a try. My parents came to lunch with us as well. Atmosphere is pretty cozy and staff was super nice. The girls were on top of everything and a guy kept refilling our water. The menu is pretty big and they serve breakfast all day as well. There was so much to choose from and being super hungry it was hard to make a decision. I, along with my friend and mom, ended up getting a meal on the specials called chilaquiles and chicken. I don't really know what I was expecting but it wasn't what I expected. Lol. It was really good though and a decent size, enough to fill me but not make me stuffed. The specials also come with your choice of soup or dessert. My friend and I got the chicken and rice soup but it wasn't all that wonderful. It was filled with lots of rice and kinda salty for me. I'm also not one for salt though. With my moms meal she got the dessert which was only flan. She enjoyed it but I'm not a fan of the texture of flan. Wasn't a fan. As for my dad he got the Reuben and he really enjoyed it as well. I would definitely go here again and try out other items on the menu especially breakfast items!! read more

My mom and I just had the most delicious wraps here for lunch! Friendly service too! Definitely coming back!

I typically get the Chilaquiles - always perfect. The other thing I use to judge a restaurant is its fruit bowl side. This place gets it right by not going with your average melon/cantaloupe/grape mix read more

Lenora's Cafe - Chilaquiles - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Keyport, New Jersey

Since Leonora's cafe opened I have been a regular, stopping during weekdays as well as weekends for breakfast and sometimes lunch. Well that ends today with her unbelievable rudeness! I had breakfast after church with a friend and, yes, we can talk sometimes for hours on end. But we are more than aware when there is a crowd waiting, albeit infrequently, and will give up our table. In fact, more often than not, alone or with a friend, I am the one flagging down wait staff for a refill or the bill while the staff just stands there talking. Today they were unusually busy and WITH my bill I got notice from Leonora herself that she needed the table. The food is good, the service is poor, and now they've lost a regular customer. When I think of all the times I have been at the restaurant for lunch when I was the only customer..... Oh well. read more

Went to Lenoras Cafe for lunch end it was delicious. I had the beef empanadas, they were delicious! Casual laid-back atmosphere and a great spot to sit and chat over lunch with a friend; Even during Covid!! read more

Decided to stop by and very happy we did. Nice menu. A lot of Mexican inspired items. I was very happy with my choice. Chilaqulis (sp) were delicious, fresh and the only change I would make is, I'd order chorizo with it next time. Hubby had a mess of food. And enjoyed it all. He had the norm. Eggs, sausage, French toast. Staff, very attentive and friendly. Seems the place to be. Crowded with what seemed to be, happy customers. We'll be back. read more

So many great things about Lenora's. It's a restaurant that's got all the right elements working in tandem with one another, making for a wonderfully satisfying meal and experience. Staff is so kind and welcoming, really sweet people (Every time). The restaurant itself is super clean inside (this always says so much to me) and seating is comfortable and homey. The food is fresh and really delicious. The coffee is really, really good. There's something magical about the chipotle mayo, I'm telling you! I know it seems quite a simple concept of a sauce to make, but I love chipotle mayo wherever I go, and there's just something exquisite about Leonora's. The salads, pancakes, waffles, enchiladas, eggs, everything will hit the spot. Overall, just a real nice place to sit and enjoy a great meal with fine people. read more

Best breakfast in town. All around amazing breakfast food, but the chilaquiles is the best by far. We'll eventually get around to lunch/dinner but this is our favorite for breakfast in town so far. read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch while house hunting. I ordered a panini, and my husband ordered a wrap. Both were decent, nothing superb or to write home about. Would definitely like to come back and try their breakfast, as they had an extensive breakfast menu. read more

Great breakfast stop on the way to the shore. Ask for all the hot sauces to spice up your eggs - fresh orange juice and great coffee.

Stopped here for lunch based on Yelp reviews. This place is a find. The food was very good, the menu is huge, the service was very good and it was very reasonably priced. Would definitely return next time we need breakfast or lunch in the area. read more
