Breakfast at this funky local favorite can only be described as more food than anyone should ever eat. Packed with early and late risers on weekends, it's much calmer early morning in mid-week. The staff pile plates high with potatoes, eggs, breakfast meats and pancakes in all sorts of combinations. Luncheon and afternoon fare is predominantly Portuguese featuring big bowls of kale and linguia soup, littlenecks with cubes of pork and seafood stews. Sometimes the kitchen gets carried away with salt, but even with this inconsistency, the fare strikes a hearty, happy note.

BEST IN TOWN
By SilverFoxWH on 06/14/2008
You will not find a meal as big and good as this, for so little money anywhere around town and thats the truth, believe me! Like the old saying goes,"Try it, you'll like it". If you don't, then it is your loss.

best breakfast ever!!!!!
By cynnamon125 on 04/23/2004
The food in this restaurant is the best , there are lines down the street every weekend so we try to get there early, but if we have to wait for a seat it's worth it!!!!! The waitress's are so sweet and they always take a minute to talk and get to know there customers personally. I've noticed they know everyone by name, and the regulars don't even have to order they come every day for the same meal. You get huge portions of great tasting food, my personal favorites are the belgian waffle topped with fresh fruit and homemade whipcream or the coconut french toast words can't even explain:), service is excellent the staff runs around that place to make sure each customer is enjoying there meal and constantly asking " is everything ok?" I could sit here for ever and write and talk about this place that has very quickly became my favorite breakfast restaurant, I crave it, no joke!!! but check it out you'll see:)

If it's brunch you're after, this place isn't worth it. They give you HUGE amounts of untasty food, and the service is terrible. I've given them a few tries, and now I won't order anything but Cream of Wheat and orange juice. Watch your glasses-they tend to have dirty dishware. Don't bother complaining- they offer to do nothing for you. Try JOhnny D's or Soundbites in Somerville for a really nice brunch experience.
