    Apple pie Ala mode was our free birthday dessert!

    I took my friend out for birthday lunch at this location. I had the Cobb salad, and she ordered the Huevos con Rancheros. Both were delicious and cooked to perfection The service was excellent and the ambiance is a feel good type restaurant. We will definitely be back to try some more of their extensive menu!

    I would advise to disregard the bad reviews, East Mesa is a retirement community and they are a tough crowd. This place has real good authentic food and pleasant service. Space is limited so if you have a big group expect to wait. However if it's just 2-4 people waiting will not be an issue. The food is really fresh. The fries are amazing! They are slightly flavored with a Parmesan cheese powder (I think). Coffee is average diner coffee. Food comes out fast despite the crowd. Service is extremely pleasant, they are never understaffed and the team seems to work really well together. There are also 3 big TVs and they show sports.

    My cousin and I were doing afternoon tea nearby, but wanted to try a brunch location within 5ish miles of where we were headed. We located Morning Glory Brunchery,l on Yelp, and the reviews looked promising! Unfortunately, we did not have the best experience and likely will not return as it is not located near us and in our opinion, not worth the trip out of the way. What went wrong you might be wondering? I'll share our experience overall that could have been a one off for a Saturday service around 11am. When we arrived, the main area was pretty full so they sat us in the side section. There were still 3-4 tables sat back here, so it seemed promising we would not be forgotten in the side section. Sadly, we often were out of coffee which is a dealbreaker for me when dining for breakfast/brunch. I need my go go juice! The cups were also only 8oz cups, which likely contributed to us running low quickly. Additionally, we asked for lemon for our waters twice but never received. As well as it took 5-7 minutes to get a straw for my Bloody Mary after the server dropped the drink off as they didn't have one on them. They did return with them in a napkin unwrapped, so perhaps this location doesn't have individually wrapped straws? When my cousin sat down, her side of the table was sticky. We did not bring attention to it as it was already difficult to get coffee refills, or a straw for my Bloody Mary. Though the service was a little hit or miss, the food arrived quickly! So quick that our Mimosa and Bloody Mary didn't arrive for another 5 minutes after the food, which I had hoped to have a few sips before the food arrived. Both drinks were okay, but nothing special. For $8 the value was there, but I've also had better flavored brunch drinks elsewhere. Overall, the food tasted okay but we both weren't huge fans of the hollandaise sauce which makes the Benedict. Plus, I thought it was odd the picture advertised on the window didn't match how it was served. Possible use of a stock photo versus what they actually serve? This could have been a one off with the service, and the food overall was decent. Just nothing spectacular that would have be making a special trip to come have again. I can see them being a good spot for locals, but not a destination brunch.

    Morning Glory Brunchery is a decent little local breakfast place in a strip mall. They've got all the breakfast basics with decent prices with a no-frills atmosphere. It fits perfectly into the area. We came here on a visit to relatives and it hit the right spot. In addition to standard choices like bacon and eggs or omelets, they have a variety of "skillet" options which include various ingredients and eggs on top. I usually like to order a vegetarian option with some kind of meat added, usually ham, because the veggie choices typically have better ingredients like zucchini and mushrooms. Which is what I did here and the result was pretty good. They also had children's menu options which fit the bill for our little ones. There were enough servers to make sure things were not neglected and the coffee was flowing, which was nice. It's clear that they are prepared to be very busy. Even though several tables ordered ahead of us, the food still came out in a reasonable time. Overall you will have a decent breakfast here. Four stars.

    Decided to try a new (to us) brunch place local to us and found this lil gem! Wonderful staff that was quick to check in on us and even offered us to-go drinks! Fantastically tasty food served fast! So tasty and the price points were easily worth it. We went around 12 during a Sunday and it was pleasantly packed and there were lots of TVs displaying various news/sports/shows but it wasn't loud or distracting. Will definitely be coming here again!

    Food was decent and service was wonderful. It's in a great location and the food was cooked just right. I asked for a rare steak and got medium rare, but it's a great diner to sit and eat. The fruit was fresh and good. Definitely a great place to stop by when you want breakfast!

First things first, it was hot in the restaurant, potentially the A/C was not working as well as it should have been or something, but it was not super comfortable. The service was good, I didn't get her name, a younger woman waited on me and she was very kind and did the best she could. The food came out super slow, I ordered empanadas to start, the waitress said they burned the first order (I appreciated that didn't just serve me overdone empanadas lol) once they finally arrived they were just unfortunately bland, and just kind of lacked authenticity. When she finally brought out my main dish, she even apologized for the wait and said "I had to go yell at them". For a main entree I ordered the French dip with onion rings, another reviewer mentioned they were the best they had had. The meat was kind of tough and dry (which is odd for a French Dip, and everything just lacked flavor. Even the au jus really had no kind of salt or much flavor to it. I really hoped after seeing how everyone else rated this place that I had found that little hole in the wall spot putting out killer food that we all long for, sadly this wasn't it.

I have to be honest the sea bass was probably the best sea bass I have tried. 100/10 so flavorful and adding a squeeze of lemon was a hit! I would definitely some back here. Even the bread sticks they serve with the table waters are yummy garlicky and soft and warm. I expected a lot more "patriotic style" American restaurant decor but it is tasteful and tasty!

The toasted bun was a great touch, or else it would have likely fallen apart! Every bite was absolute perfection! Our server was fantastic and so attentive to my gluten-free needs. She made sure everything was GF, and I believe she even mentioned that they have a dedicated fryer, which was such a comforting bonus! The only hard part about dining here was the complimentary bread that arrives at your table when you sit down. It looked and smelled absolutely delightful... but sadly, it wasn't gluten-free. Thankfully, my meal made up for it in leaps and bounds! We are DEFINITELY adding Red White & Brew to our rotation! Whether you're stopping in for lunch, happy hour, or dinner, I don't think you can go wrong. Great food, great service, and a very happy GF girl!

I saw this location had some good seating to have 10 of us as a send off. The staff was incredibly friendly, and even offered extra chairs and help move tables if needed. What We Ordered: - German Potato Salad: My cousin ordered and really liked it. I'm not a fan of German potato salad, so I didn't enjoy the flavor. I'll stick to my potato salad. - Potato Salad: Pretty decent for a potato salad, but nothing standout for me. - Meatball Sub: My cousin and his son split this, and they said it was quite large. They wished it had more sauce, but still overall a decent meatball sub. - Caesar Salad + Chicken: I couldn't snap a photo before my cousin's girlfriend and his daughter tore into this. They seemed very pleased with the salad and at a glance, it looked pretty delicious. - Philly Cheesesteak: My dad said it was very good and ate the whole thing! - Roasted Veggie Wrap: My mom said it was nice, and veggies are refreshing on a hot summer day. It was wrapped well, and enjoyed the umami of the mushrooms and balsamic glaze. - Pastrami Reuben: I loved this sandwich! The pastrami was delicious, and I'm excited to have leftovers which is saying something. I'm not usually one to look forward to leftovers. - Turkey & Swiss Wrap: My auntie throughly enjoyed this, and said it was the perfect last meal in America before heading back to England. - Chef Salad: My auntie and I split this to have a bit of veg. Lovely salad with lots of ingredients that complimented each other well. - The American (Reuben-style): My cousin really enjoyed this sandwich and said it was quite large. Next time, she could easily split with me or her fiancée. - Cuban: My cousin's fiancée ordered this and said it's the best Cuban sandwich he's ever had! Quite high remarks. Honestly, I'm not sure I could pick a better place. Very friendly, quick service, and great eats. Definitely return to this location when in the area, and will recommend to family and friends.

If you establish a presence here, they will take care of you. Consistency is another major selling point. Go here 10 times, and your food is going to be on point about 9.5 of those times. Those are pretty good odds. They have just recently started a soft launch of their fall/winter menu, which means they are experimenting with a few new dishes while bringing back some old favorites. One of those returning favorites is the crispy cauliflower. Last time around, it was fantastic. This time, while still tasty, it had apparently filed a formal complaint against the word "crispy" because there was very little evidence to support the claim. Even the bartender agreed with me that it was somewhat misrepresented. Tip: Get the sauce on the side. It will help preserve what level of crisp that is intended for this dish. Now, let us move on to the star of the evening. The new chicken parmigiana! Holy mother of God. Butter my butt and call me a biscuit. This may genuinely be one of the most beautiful, perfectly textured, and downright delicious chicken parmigianas I have ever had. The chicken was crisped to absolute perfection, and the way they layered the marinara on top was brilliant. Rather than drowning the chicken in a traditional, liquidy sauce, they used more of a bruschetta-style topping, which gave it texture while somehow allowing the breading to remain gloriously crispy. Hands down, one of the best chicken parmigianas I have ever had. Now we just need to pray to whatever culinary deity is responsible for consistency that they can replicate this thing every time, because this one was ridiculously good. One final recommendation: split the dish.Unless you are the kind of person who considers a family-size portion a light snack, there is plenty of food here for two.
