    Hot chocolate

    Cute little breakfast spot with really sweet service. The food was good and came out quickly. The donuts looked delicious, and the ambiance felt very homey and welcoming. Nice place to stop for a cozy breakfast!

    The new dinners are amazing . Every thing is fresh and made from scratch including super yummy soups. The cheeseburger special is a fantastic value. I really think we need to support this local treasure!!

    Breakfast DONE

    Easy parking Easy seating- basically find a spot Fair diner atmosphere- a little upkeep for the shared items like menus would help and be appreciated I like the menu and honestly my hubby brought me breakfast from here last summer but yesterday was my first time eating in. It seems like a Vallejo staple, I believe I read since 1937. I definitely have an affinity for Nostalgic locations. I had a Jacks scramble with spinach and mushrooms, sourdough toast, and hash browns; one teen had French toast; other teen pancakes with sausage and eggs (she ate my hash browns). Filling food, nice service, and oh, CASH ONLY.

    Nearly raw hash brown potatoes

    This place used to be a gem in Vallejo but no longer. It is under new ownership and has really gone downhill. We went a few weeks ago and the place was not clean and in great need of a remodel. Seats were torn and dirty. The tables, and bar stools were also worn. The service is ok if you can get the servers on a good day. Ours was a little grumpy and seemed put out when we requested extra napkins, fresh cream for coffee, etc. Their cream is on the tables in an old fashioned silver server that sits on the table all morning so if you go for a late breakfast it has been sitting there for almost 4 hours and it didn't smell good. Their sugar is also kept in a very dirty used glass server with a flip lid that is always crusted over and doesn't look very clean. Our food came out cold and the hash brown potatoes were almost raw. (See photo) Another problem for us is that the place is "cash only". There is an ATM inside the restaurant and you are referred to it by the servers in a very grumpy manner if you even give them the slightest protest about not being able to use your credit card. I witnessed this happening about 3 times while we were there when someone tried to just come in for donuts at the counter. Also beware that this area has a lot of homeless and they sometimes hang out around the restaurant. High crime area so keep your valuables out of sight if you go. End of an era due to new ownership. We won't be back.

    See all

No cashier hovering over you when you swipe your cc to see if you left a tip before they serve you. No price gouging and unhealthy chemicals. No 4$ hash browns which are worth $.25 each at the local walmart by the box. No high profit items like pizza, burgers, unlimited soft drinks, or anything frozen. Keeps food healthier. Everything prepared from scratch to keep costs down and quality up. Nothing overly unhealthy salty or sweet like Costco food. Lots of seasonal veg selections and rotating seasonal specialities. Artichokes, cabbage, depends on season and what is in fields. Seasonal fresh strawberries and cake/cream. Turkey Chili: more turkey than beans or tomatoes. Very hearty. Difficult to finish the bowl. Looks small but very dense. Enchilada: turkey, home made sauce. Very large. Turkey plate: traditional TG turkey menu. Turkey, gravy, MP, stuffing. Many choices for side dishes not. Famous for this, 40y ago they use to have turkey on a spit roasting in the front door. That has been replaced with a plastic mockup. Down to 2 locations. Gotta own the land. Prime rib, maybe they lose money on this. hard to believe this is still ~$20. Similar to Gunther's restaurant in SJ. Old school.

The staff seems to have been here for a while, liking their job. The place is clean and huge. Great for big groups. No need for a time limit. Good for a birthday or long hang out. It's only missing the slot machines! Haha The food is American dishes like steak with mashed potatoes, sandwiches, salad and pies. They also have Mac & cheese, some Italian or Mexican dishes. Prices are very decent. Portions are great. I had their prime rib sandwich. Tender and pretty good but I still had to add some salt and pepper for flavor; this is also why you get Au Ju with it but not enough for me.. My company all had the hot turkey with mashes potatoes & gravy sandwich. It's basically an open faced sandwich. It was a large portion and full of gravy. They loved it. If you are a senior, you get a discount so no wonder there were many seniors. A good place to come again for a long lunch or dinner meal. Food is decent but not fancy. [5R,2026]

Super friendly, checked on us at the right times, and just brought a really great vibe to the table. For a Saturday morning, the wait was totally reasonable. The menu alone guarantees we're coming back. Too many things we still want to try. We ordered the Hunter's Skillet with pork adobo and it was legit. Not just seasoned on the surface, the flavor carried through every bite. Swapped toast for biscuits and gravy and that was the right call. Thick biscuits and a peppery white gravy I would absolutely take home and eat again. I went with the Mexican French Toast made with conchas, topped with mango tres leches sauce and fresh strawberries. It was next level. Amaze. Amaze. Amaze.

The food came out quickly, hot, and in generous portions, which was perfect because we were all pretty hungry after church and hadn't decided where to go until we found this spot. The ambiance was really cute, giving an old-fashioned, almost Riverdale-type vibe. It felt like a nice little getaway. We were seated and eating within about 10 to 15 minutes, and everything tasted amazing. The service was just as great. Our waiters were attentive, but I especially want to shout out Caitlyn. She was incredibly kind, patient, and attentive to our large group of about 10 people. She handled everything so well and made our experience even better.

He served cornbread, then saw him near end of meal to see "how I was doing". He missed the meal, my empty glass and a side dish. I had to ask for everything from expediter--a very nice guy, who clearly was experienced and helpful. I thought it unusual for a server to only take an order, but never serves. The cod and fries were fine, but 1/3 of the meal missing. The 3 stars were for partial meal, lack of attention by "server". Food was good (no side dish- potato salad), packaged frozen cod. Tipped 20% (lowest I do for service clearly not given by a waiter). During entire seating, I never Seen him pick up any food from kitchen. So not sure of role of "server".
