    Dining room

    Local small business tucked away in the cute town of Sonora CA! When you pass by this local restaurant the parking lot always has cars in it, so long as they are open. Cute decor inside that depicts their Mediterranean style. The service is impeccable! My glass was never less than half full before a waitress arrived to fill it again without my needing to ask for it. The food portions are extremely generous! I had the biscuits and gravy with two eggs, two sausage links and hash browns. The biscuits are homemade and a definite must try. The gravy is not homemade. It was not bad but would have been better if it were homemade. My date had three egg all meat Omlette with hash browns and a fresh homemade biscuit. We both really liked our good and were astonished at the large portions. We drank water and with our tip it was about $46. Not cheap but hey nothing is nowadays! There is a handicap parking right next to the entrance to the restaurant. This is helpful if that is something you need. Lots of parking available in a private lot. This was a very delicious small local business, please support them and give them a try! #SupportLocal l Check out my photos too!

    early morning departure from the motel before heading to dodge ridge for a ski session...willow wisp cafe open at 6am for breakfast...friendly local restaurant right off the 108 located in east sonora...convenient stop for breakfast for travelers...seated right away and menu provided...some children/senior menu options along with the regular classic favorites for adults...taking coffee for adults first at $3.75 each...endless refills and service is excellent...very quick to check and refill...one child took the 2 chocolate pancakes $7.95...other taking the 1 pancake, 1 meat and 1 egg special for $9.50...selecting bacon and scrambled egg...pancakes were fluffy and good...bacon was crispy and eggs scrambled nicely...no complaints from the children and gobbled it up...self taking the french toast meal $14.95 and taking scrambled eggs and bacon...bacon was immediately taken by my child and consumed...didn't even get a bite...must have been perfectly crispy...eggs were decent and french toast was perfectly fluffy and the right texture...good all around...other adult taking the basic meat & eggs meal $15.95 with wheat toast, cup of fruit, bacon and scrambled eggs...again, bacon perfectly crispy and eggs all cooked the same...fruit appeared fresh cut...toast was leaning towards burnt and that was the only major flaw in the breakfast....overall, a good breakfast for about $75 total after tax and tip for 2 adults and 2 children...great service and good food...

    Side of biscuits and gravy
    Anastasia C.

    A local gem! We were in town for a wedding and even though we already had free breakfast at our hotel, hubby had to come and try based on the reviews! Service was great, all the waitresses were friendly and patient with us while we figured out what to order. Loved that they knew just about everyone who walked in the door. We shared the lamb rotisserie with eggs (added peppers & onions) and upgraded the side with biscuits and gravy. Wow! Lamb gyro and home fries were exploding with flavor! The tzatziki sauce was incredible, house-made for sure and full of fresh herbs! The place itself has lots of interesting decorations. Make sure you check out the Bigfoot story and footprint by the fireplace!

    Brittany, where were you we I needed you today? They made my steak fries garlic... yuk and they put the sauce on my burger when I asked for it dry so my bun is all soggy and it made my red onion slimy.

    Portuguese omelette
    Becky E.

    We love this place! My dad was a regular there and he loved eating here so much. He told me about the Portuguese omelette so I had to try it. Now it's my must have breakfast ! The staff is so wonderful. They are sweet and attentive. You can't help but ogle all the plates as they go by... all the food looks amazing. I've been there on Sundays and it's a popular place but service is always amazing . The restaurant is in an old house and is very cozy and cute. I need to come back for lunch. I have heard amazing things about their burgers and specials.

    Biscuits & gravy

    1) biscuit & gravy meal was great and filling = 5 stars 2) service: Megan and everyone else will take care of you with a genuine smile = 5 stars 3) hometown cafe stop on your way to Columbia = 5 stars One of the best places we visited on our vacay in Sonora, CA.

    Greek omelette. So delicious!

We love the character and charm of both the outside and inside of the restaurant. We usually try to get there right when they open to beat the crowd. I had the grilled teriyaki salmon salad, and I have to say -- it was one of the best salads I've had in a long time. The salmon was cooked perfectly with a slightly crispy outside, exactly how I like it. I requested the sauces on the side, and they complemented the dish without being overpowering. My daughter had the grilled cheese with sweet potato fries. She compared the grilled cheese to Starbucks' grilled cheese, which is a huge compliment coming from her -- definitely two thumbs up! My husband ordered the BBQ tri-tip and had zero complaints there as well. Overall, it's a great place to eat with delicious food, welcoming customer service, and a really great ambiance. Oh, and don't forget to grab some baked goods on the way out -- definitely a must-try!
