Crying Onion Cafe

This is a good place to come and eat if you're on this side of town.
I wasn't impressed with what I chose for myself. I had an omelette that I wasn't fond of.
I had the spinach, mushroom, bacon with Monterey jack cheese omelette. I switched out the bacon for ham and added tomatoes .
The ham was tiny pieces of what looked like lunch meat ham and had no flavor to it. The mushrooms were the jarred little mushrooms. I am not a fan of processed food to begin with. This meal was too much for me. I am just not going to get an omelette from here.
The home style potatoes could have been left on the grill longer. The 1 piece of toast and not 2 like other restaurants was disappointing. I paid almost $20 for my breakfast and I was disappointed. The orange juice was good. I wish I had 2 pieces of toast maybe I wouldn't have left hungry.

First time here and it will be the last, service wasn’t good. Our waitress was coming out with the coffee pot to refill cups pass our table go to another one they didn’t want any and passes us again and puts the pot away. We had to ask for refills. I had ask for more coffee took her 10 minutes to even bring the pot. Food was okay not worth the drive.

The food is delicious!

We have gone here for years and used to love it. Ever since ownership changed they have gone downhill. Food is not great, service is mediocre at best and they up charge for everything. You used to be able to substitute coffee cake for potatoes or toast. Now it’s extra. Side of toast? Everywhere else gives you at least two slices. They brought out one piece of stale bread. Want another piece? That’ll be an extra charge. Server got my order wrong then argued with me over it. After that she never came back. I had to ask a different server for a to go box and our Check. For a $12-$15 meal, there are much better restaurants out there.

Always great food and sometimes busy but worth the wait

Busy, but good.

Must stop for breakfast. Get the 'pancake', you won't regret it.

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!

French Dip was amazing and would eat again. Did not like how servers take orders at tables with tablet like things. Takes way too long.
