My husband and I became violently ill after eating there, we know why the onions are crying The food was greasy and over priced. The wait was long for everything including our bill.

I've been eating at restaurants in Tucson for 30+ years and they have the BEST PANCAKE in town. And this is comparing it to other top notch breakfast places like Bisbee Breakfast Club and Baja Cafe. It's just...Perfect!

I can’t speak for their lunch menu, but if you want an amazing pancake breakfast, come here!

The food was great! We had a party of 8 and made room for us with a crowded restaurant and no reservation (called multiple times with no answer). They had a good selection with deceit specials, and their pancakes were huge! I would absolutely return!

Chorizo was good but thought portions were not sized accordingly to price. Never skimp on the beans and potatoes... Service was little slow but it was a Sunday morning so I kind of understand...but...not sure when I'll go back... spacing between tables is very tight thereby making place noisy... plenty of parking...

The Crying Onion Cafe is a great place to stop by for breakfast lunch, or dinner. Better suited to small to medium groups, the food is excellent. Atmosphere is pleasant and clean. Menu options looked fun, though I only visited once and ordered breakfast. If I visit Tuscon in the future, I would certainly come back.
