Matt FleigFebruary 14, 2015Great food, wonderful family owned and run restaurant, diner fare that is better than your typical diner, great special entrees. A favorite go-to-place.
Awesome variety of eggs Benedict, especially the delicious eggs Alaska (crab, albeit faux-style with surimi). Sneak in at the right times for breakfast, and you can even get vanilla porter with it!
Jamaican Me Crazy coffee and mimosas. Mediterranean Omelette, Pumpkin Pancakes, or Banana Bread French Toast for eats. If you want them all, go for the combo. Can't go wrong with breakfast all day!
- Best brunch spot in the damn city! All of the eggs benedict variations are made to perfection, try one with a mimosa 😀
Diane ConwaySeptember 23, 2016Well diverse menu. Love all the options! Especially from the brunch selection!! I.e. The various Egg Benedict
Get here early or expect to wait. Get the granola crusted cinnamon bread French Toast.
KaeLyn RichDecember 17, 2012Some vegan lunch & dinner items marked on the menu. Typical vegan breakfast diner options. The spinach tofu burger is great, but the dressing isn't vegan, so leave it off.
Anthony GomezSeptember 9, 2015Affordable & Delicious! Older crowd in the mornings but worth eating here.
Janis WinnMarch 3, 2013My orange marmalade French toast was superb but John's chorizo eggs Benedict was the star of brunch. So delicious.
Darla SucySeptember 18, 2012First time visiting I had the dolmas (stuffed grape leaves) very good! Suprised me but the rice was warm. I would order them again.
Claire EllenJuly 14, 2015Brunch...waffles pancakes and frenchtoast or any of the eggs Benedict varieties
Kevin WeiseOctober 20, 2019California Benedict was excellent and love the innovative check paying app!
Best brunch in Rochester! And stupidly affordable! There is almost always a wait, though, so be patient.
Michael HardyMay 15, 2010BEST Thing to order for breakfast (or brunch) are either Banana Bread French Toast or Pumpkin Pancakes!A Hardy Hello to Peter!
Shawn 🎸 BMarch 8, 2013The Greek food here was very good. Fresh tasting eggplant and enormous portion!!
Maggie CurtisMay 9, 2017The crab cake benedict was good and so was the coffee, but it's a bit pricey for the portions.- PiperMay 17, 2013Service is incredible here. Multiple waiters, waistresses and even the owner check on your table during your meal!
- Great for breakfast and lunch. Basically it's a glorified diner. Food is good.
Granola crusted French toast is an amazing combo of flavors and texture
Been eating here for over 25 years. Love this place! Great food!
Heather FoxJanuary 19, 2014Expect at least a 20 min wait on weekends. Tofu scramble is not on the menu but always available to order!
AdrienneJanuary 26, 2012Always a great experience... and I agree banana bread french toast is a MUST!
Eggs Alaska: eggs Benedict over crab meat. Do it, you know you want to. #nomnomnom
Hot Turkey Sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy is the best!
Madison Levin-EpsteinMay 20, 2014If you get the Souvlaki and eggs, beware that you are getting what you are paying for -- not a lot.
Still the best breakfast spot in Rochester. Great anytime.- you can't go wrong with the food at jines - looking for comfort food? go for the hot turkey sandwich
Frittata omelet or the granola crusted french toast. Yum.- The orange marmalade French toast is absolutely amazing.
- Amy LeighJune 12, 2016Found a piece of plastic glove in omelette from kitchen. Server apologetic, owner confrontational and little defensive when questioned. Food good but disappointed with owner response.
- you can't go wrong with the banana bread french toast! so delish!
