Very nice! Service was great. More people are finding out about this "hole-in-the-wall", so I would suggest making reservations. Food is very healthy, tasty, and not overpriced.

Crowded but staff polite and worked tables quickly Brunch special for Mother's Day The Mexican street corn avocado toast wonderful

Carol

Service was polite and prompt. Kitchen was slow but the blueberry scones and Godfather Benedict were worth waiting for! Would have rated the overall experience a 5 star but it was noisy and make conversation a bit difficult most of the time.

I rarely get downtown, but met some friends for brunch at Nook. I had never been here shockingly! It felt very popular on arrival with a wait, but I had made a reservation... score extra for permitting reservations. The hostess at the front seemed a smidge cranky when we arrived as when I checked in and said we had an 11A rez, she barked 'is your whole party here, because we don't seat unless everyone is here'. It was the way she said it and the audacity of me checking in prior to everyone's arrival. Not generally an overly sensitive person - and initial greeting is key Miss Hostess. Nonetheless we were seated and had a truly wonderful brunch. Loved the menu items, they felt super unique and different or at minimum a different spin on a traditional brunch/breakfast item. We started with some Latte's and I will tell you to hard pass on dropping money there. The milk was barely warm and they just didn't taste that great. We also got the protein carrot bread to share and it was REALLY delicious. Made up for the espresso drinks and cranky hostess. We waited nearly 45 minutes to get our breakfast which seemed kinda long so thank goodness for the carrot bread. My husband got the steak/eggs and loved it; friends got benedicts and omelet's and love their dishes. I had the Tamale Pie and it was absolutely flavorful and delicious. Our server was wonderful, kept our water carafe full and checked on us just enough.

This was my first time to Nook. The atmosphere was very relaxing for Brunch on a Sunday. Even though it was busy, it wasn't noisy, and it was easy to have a conversation with my friend who was with me. The service was great, the drinks were refreshing, and the food amazing. It's a creative and flavorful menu. I will definitely be coming back!

Probably the best Griddlecakes in town! They are so light and fluffy with many flavor options. Today I tried the Blueberry Scones with warm strawberry jam- heavenly. We will definitely go back. BTW, I STRONGLY suggest making reservations, especially for Sunday Brunch.

Looked for a different type of brunch. This was rated fairly high for Tucson area. Nice location. Early reservation was good since it started to get crowded after our arrival. Staff were friendly and provided good service. Food was good. Food was served promptly and was good.

Warning, the servings are more than ample! This time I ordered the banana griddle cakes with a side of bacon. Waitress asked if I wanted the normal order or the side order, next time I will order the side order. I shared my griddle cakes with to other people and still didn't finish them. Btw they are delicious. My husband had the biscuits and gravy and cleaned his plate. They weren't too salty and the biscuits are buttermilk. My daughter had the Honey Chipotle Eggs Benedict with crispy pork belly, 5 stars. Out server was delightful as always. See you all next week.we are working our way through the menu.

Some positives and some negatives. The positive is the food...the folded egg hashes and the eggs Benedict's are really delicious. The other positive is the low noise level compared to all the other restaurants around. You could have great conversations without yelling. Also our server was very sweet and attentive. The negatives are the slow service for the food and only QR codes for the menu which is fine for me but not for my 80 year old dad without a smart phone. He pays the bill so I try to find spots that work for him. The hostess wouldn't seat us “until the whole party is there.” I let the hostess know my dad can't stand for so long, and she said well there's your table but you won't be served for a while.. meanwhile she's folding napkins.

I recommend reservations if you are going for Sunday Brunch. Today was our second Sunday trying their brunch menu. Last week my husband had the Tamale pie which he totally devoured! I had the folded eggs with ham and hash browns all excellent. Today we both had the Nook special. Choice of 2 eggs, 2 strips of bacon and 2 griddle cakes with syrup. Other than my scrambled eggs needed to be cooked a tad longer it was all excellent. Next week I am deciding between the Honey Chipotle Eggs Benedict and the Banana Griddle cakes with side of their awesome thick bacon. Will report next Sunday!

First time here but we will definitely be back! Everything was well done, food was excellent, large portions, my husband had the Tamales pie and ate every single bite! The griddle cakes looked delicious on our neighbors table, will try next time, that is if I don't have the carnitas eggs Benedict!
