If you're looking for a nice spot for breakfast or lunch ON THE WEEKENDS (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, from 7:30 am to 2 pm), look no further than Grace's Kitchen in Point Place.
Location: Although GK is readily accessible, for most people in Toledo, the location isn't great...only Rudy's and La Chalupa, both in Shoreland, are located further to the Northeast.
I've never eaten lunch here, but I can tell you that GRace serves some excellent omelets, French toast, and pancakes. The frozen drinks and the coffee drinks are interesting and fun, if not a little campy. A significant amount of the menu is made from scratch, including, for example, the strawberry preserves for your toast. Portion sizes are just right. Omelets come with two slices of toast, and for me, that's perfect.
The place is small, but the atmosphere is cozy, clean, and the service is fast and friendly. The service model is a atypical for a breakfast spot. You place your order and pay (CASH ONLY) at the counter, take your seat, and then your food is brought out to you.
The building itself is very cool. It was constructed in 1960 and it's a nice example of toned-down midcentury modern architecture. It's basically a volume of rotation created by rotating a right trapezium through 90 degrees, with the axis of rotation being it's shortest side. So...if it sounds as though I'm trying to seem smart, I'm not. I'll freely admit that I'm a dumbass...If I were actually intelligent, I'd eat at Grace's more often.
FIVE STARS from this dumb shit right here! read more
