My first order and definitely many more to come! Love family restaurants. And my eggs, cheese omelettes, and biscuits were excellent with great portions. My new breakfast place for sure. 👍

It’s located in North Pasadena. Ramon the owner is very nice. The food is hot and delicious. He always has specials. I paid $10 for the rib special. He deserves more traffic. Try it out. 😋

I ordered the Country Fried Steak with Sweet Corn, Mashed Potatoes and rolls. The rolls were dense like bread not a yeast roll. The food was freshly cooked yet prepared quickly. I enjoyed my order very much. I will be back.
