This place has a variety of food.
It took me like 20 minutes to figure it out which one I wanted to order.
I ordered the sesame chicken. That's my fav!
My friend ordered the fried rice and he said it's really good too.
Saw the place and thought "hmmm grilled cheese and chow mein!"
Ended up getting fried chicken wings and a grilled cheese.
greasy to the max.
it was pretty busy and the service was a tad funky.
i'd probably be back again if i was stuck out at CCSF as i was last time.
Have you ever been to VIP Cafe or ABC? Jojo's Cafe is a mirror image of what VIP and ABC are, scaled-down in size and more family-oriented.
The staff here are extremely friendly, which is a plus. You can usually get their attention with a quick wave or glance.
While the variety here is wide spread, the taste is not too exceptional (don't except any memorable items, but they are good enough), you have your usual choices ranging from American items to Chinese items, e.g. Fries, Chicken Sandwich, Porkchop Rice, etc..
The best part about Jojo's is their 2.99 all day breakfast special on Saturdays!
Cheap! $2.99 for breakfast that includes entree + hong kong hot milk tea or other drink. Food comes out really quickly and service is not bad. Atmosphere is what you can expect from a family run business that serves everything from french toast, pancakes, and bacon to baked pork chop over rice and juk. There was a lot of noise, loud yelling, and a few flies. Can't really ask for more if you're paying $8 total for two meals + appetizer, tax and tip.
If I'm in the mood for such a combination of both American and the bf is craving Chinese or the other way around, I'll consider coming back.
Salt & Pepper pork chops.
Have I had anything else? Nahh not counting the cream cheese won tons, which are great by the way. Do i dare try some other entree? Highly doubt it. Ate from this place multiple times in middle school when I lived in the area and every once in awhile I'll come when I'm craving them. It's usually busy when I come so that's a good thing for them.
Note: I rate this review only on that dish. So go at your own risk.
We ordered delivery - hot and sour soup, lemon chicken, and chicken with pan fried noodles. The person who took the order said it would be about 45 minutes but 10 minutes later the delivery guy was at my door - I do live only 3 blocks away but it made me wonder how freshly cooked the food actually was. The food wasn't so great - greasy with overcooked vegetables - the hot and sour soup had a burnt taste to it was wasn't very hot or sour.
I don't think I'll be ordering from them again
This place is great, cheap, greasy noodles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and they are really FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
seriously, have you seen the menu for this place!? if you live near SFSU and you're too tired/hungover from your 22nd birthday bash to go anywhere, you can get some delicious and affordable food delivered to your house.
this place is listed on http://eat24hours.com and their menu goes on for days! they have typical american breakfasts and foods [ie pancakes, omelettes, and sandwiches] as well as a very expansive chinese menu. we ended up ordering the corn beef hash, mixed egg foo young, and peking style pork chops. oh, and an orange juice that saved my LIFE. the food only came out to a little over 20 bucks, and it was enough to last us for DAYS. delivery was also quick and there were no problems with our order. i know my new go to spot now =]
SF Food Inspection Score: 3 Stars (out of 5)
I think this place gave me and my boyfriend the rhea......
I got seafood noodle soup and Ryan got beef stew with mashed potatoes and veggies. They were good enough for what we paid.
What's exciting is that they deliver BREAKFAST food and other stuff from the menu until 9:30pm!!!
So I'll try this place ONE more time just for their breakfast delivery. If I get tummy issues again, I'm NEVER ordering from here.
Love, Love JoJo's Cafe! How could you go wrong with Hong Kong style food delivered right to your door?
Almost everything I had here is delicious! Some of my favorites include the: Beef Stew Won Ton Noodle Soup, Black Bean Beef Chow Fun, Orange Chicken Rice Plate, and West Lake Beef Soup. Yea, I guess you can say their strength is in the BEEF! ;)
Delivery is almost always FAST! Within 30 minutes they'll be knocking on your door delivering your food in a red grocery basket. How cute is that?
What a family restaurant!!
My uncle suggested this place today after a visit to the cemetery.
When I say family restaurant, i dont mean like for our family; i meant the owner's WHOLE family works here. The owner cooks, the wife takes orders, the mother-in-law chases after the 8 children who are running in and out of the restaurant cling clanging any thing they find that makes loud noises.
Patrons didnt seem to care, they were cute kids.
Now for the food. I usually dont like my beans in my red bean drink, but this one was like blended in a blender, the beans were soft and edible. Food was pretty good. They have everything from calamari to xo spaghetti. From clam chowder to chinese porridge. From pan cakes to bitter melon. From french fries and burgers to chow fun. You get the idea.
The place didnt look really nice on the inside or out. But the people were definitely nice!! Give them a chance. They have a big screen tv.
Best thing i had here today was the calamari.
To be honest, they're used to be a pretty decent place to eat when they'd just opened few years ago. At that time, they served breakfast for $1.99 (what a deal), and the owner only had 1 little girl. But now, things seem to be going down the hill ... the service, the quality of food, the place.
Place is dirty ... the bathroom needs scrubbing, please!
The owner's little kids and the grandparents are always around, sitting at the corner table (eating, making loud noises, drooling, throwing tantrum, joking, and so and so) ... it's annyoing and disgusting.
Food is salty and oily.
Price is not so cheap compare to the nearby "chinese" restaurants.
If you pay and want your change, make sure you tell that to your server, because they might assume you don't need a change. Helloooo ... why would I give you a 30% tips for your lousy service. This wasn't happened just one time to me!
Milk tea is yuck ... tea is not fresh (Okay, it's free) ... well I would definitely not go to eat here anymore!
P.S. I think there're 4 little kids crowding the restaurant all the time plus 2 grandparents. Oh yeah, sometimes the kids would stare at you too ... hahahahaha
My friends and I have been coming here since HS, and we love it. I always get the Salt and pepper pork chops w/ fried rice which is sooo good for such a low price. They also give really big portions, I'll take some to go please! I like the fact that they make the rice plates available all times unlike other chinese restaurants that serve it during certain times of the day and not on the weekends. I loove it, fast service, and cheap too.
Jojo's! Thank you for feeding my broke ass! With your old school lazy susan tables and your walls covered in menus written in Chinese, you certainly are "chow fun" *nudge, nudge*
Your three dollar breakfast is serious business, though. For a rotating breakfast buffet of hot tea served in a water glass, mystery eggs and soaked French toast teemin' with peanut butter, I couldn't believe the price! Just the mere fact that you could get fish parts, sweet and sour sauce OR an egg on top of ANYTHING pretty much sealed the deal for me. My stomach cried, but my wallet rejoiced.
The end.
This place rules and is super cheap!
Tomato chicken wings over rice.
That's the stuff.
The chicken omelette is good too, and at any time of day! All omelettes come with hash and toast with butter and jelly. Yum!
Everything here is cheap, and tastes like good old homemade Chinese food. It's definitely better than what my mom makes. It's not fancy restaurant stuff, and I can't guarantee that it's good for you, but if you're looking for an affordable Chinese meal at any time of day, Jojo's is the way to go! And they make it SUPER fast.
Plus, they deliver free =]
$15 minimum
However, I have one final piece of advice: Their milk tea is disgusting.
Cheap, fast, tasty, and large portions. Only tried once so far but looking forward to trying again!
In terms of places that are comparable to Jo Jo's Cafe, it's pretty darn good. In terms of places that serve food, not that great but for HK style food, like I said, pretty good. The one time I did come here to eat, I ordered some fish with cream of corn dish and I enjoyed it. That's way more than I can say for places like ABC Cafe or even Denny's (The Asian one in the Richmond District).
Just remember when you come here that 1) It's an HK Chinese/American restaurant and 2) It's an HK Chinese/American restaurant.
I reeeeally like their baked rice and noodles. I've tried the other stuff, but it's not as good.
3.75 Stars
Just barely missed the breakfast specials for Jojo's Cafe so my friends and I tried the dinner menu. We had chosen fried tofu with pork and minced beef over rice. For $5.25, we got more than a lot, it was super sized. I was like wow, who still makes plates this big? But I wasn't complaining. I have to come back and try the rest of their menu but my minced beef was definitely good. The minced beef was doused with oyster sauce and perfectly tender in every bite. It comes with a raw egg but the server allowed me to get a fried egg on top because I don't do too well with raw foods with being sickened twice in less than a year. The complimentary soup was nothing special and my friend didn't like his fried tofu dish. Service was really good and it is a hole in the wall but I really liked it. Gotta come back and try the rest of the menu. Come on a Sunday and parking is free!
After trying out several other places on ocean, I settled on Jojo as my choice spot when the porridge urge hits.
This place is ok... I came here for lunch since it's near City College of SF haha. I ordered a Lunch Combination for $6.75 they give you a choice of BBQ Pork Fried Rice or Chow Mein, an entree and eggrolls. They have 3 different entrees to choose from, chicken and vegetables, sweet and sour pork, or mongolian beef. I got the mongolian beef. It was actually pretty good, better than I thought it would be. The portion was big since they piled on the plate with food! so I had to get a box haha. It wasn't bad, I liked it.
In terms of the environment, it's alright. Your typical "Chinese cafe" The seating is kind of cramped though. The bathroom is ok, kind of dirty haha. I also noticed that they have some specials for breakfast and afternoon tea so the prices are cheaper, around $3. They also serve American breakfast so it's like a mixture of American/Chinese food.
Overall, this place is A-OK! I would come back if I was around school and wanted some food.
One of the cheapest place to get a decent meal. I've always enjoyed their breakfast menu. Their Chinese food is alright. Their plates are a good/large portion and although the food can be oily at times, their food is quite satisfying.
THIS IS THE TYPE OF PLACE WHY YELP EXISTS. who doesnt gawd damn know that cowgril creamery has good cheese? who doesnt freaking know bobs donuts rule the im drunk off my ass at 3am donut scene? what we need is info on these types of places.
so Hen A. aka billy bobs dounts gave me this recommendation and holysmackmyass its a good one.
let me begin with this. ive been on a korean girlfriend streak for awhile. just recently, ive been telling friends, find me a nice cantonese girl....why? because they are less crazier than korean girls? they tend to be less violent? they tend drink less? they tend to have....blaabla.
NO damn it......... the reason, i miss chinese food.
alot of us nonchinese folks feel very intimidated to go to *chinese joints*. they can be almost as intimidating as korean places for nonkoreans. i love dimsum, i dont go the the usual dim sum joints, i go the the boakwai yank sing. at most chinese joints, the specials are almost always in chinese. most chinese folks dont even bother opening the menu. ehhhhhh i knew i shouldve paid attention in korean school when they was teaching chinese characters or in japanese class when they was teaching kanji. whatever.
why is this joint yelpish? im from the 415, i lived down the street, now i live up the street. i drive by shitty college all the time. grand auto is like my second home. the 76 on the corner is my drug of choice. IVE NEVER EVEN NOTICED THIS PLACE.
ok so before i begin, dont expect emily post etiquette here. this is the chinese joints of the people. bare bones, paper special menu on the walls.......but what is this!?!?? EVERY FREAKING SPECIAL IS TRANSLATED IN ENGLISH ALSO. nice. the menu reads out kinda funny, they got all the usual chinese fair and also some oddballs..... burgers, steaks, cream cheese wontons, omlettes.... its cool i dig it.
the meal started with a simple soup first on the house. pretty tastey for free soup. the meat was a bit tough and chewy, but hey, free is free.
salt and pepper shrimp. interesting, they used peeled and butterflied shrimp. most chinese joints are either too lazy are too worried it will dry out too much. *full flavor when shell left on* i must say shrimp with shell on, head on is far more tastier, but i was very pleasantly surprised with this one. wished only the green peppers and onions were cooked a bit longer.
rock cod in clay pot.... well its in a metal pot, but whos picky. not too shabby at all. amazingly the fish was pretty fresh. breaded and fried before tossing into a pot with black bean sauce (and the same green peppers, onion combo) was pretty good.
beef chow fun with gravy.... pretty damn freaking good i must admit. pretty DAMN good.
the damage with two sodas? barely 20 bucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!! can you believe that. holydamncheapeats.
this place is not the place to go for a fancy meal, its bare bones good chinese eats. they streamline everything, but dont sacrifice the most important thing, taste.........
now yall mofos must be wondering, did i get the msg thirst? no, not really, not really at all.
highly recommend if yous by shitty college and need a chinese fix.
edit : 9/29 : so since i wrote this review, i mustve ate here like 15 or so times. seriously. i just had it for a late breakfast today. my favorite? salt and pepper rock cod. damn good. id suggest going on a saturday afternoon. crazy cheap brunch specials. they have their usual fare plus this *chinese tapas* things, you know pot stickers, wonton noodle soup, chicken wings. ahhhh i love jojos.
I used to love coming here because it's so close and cheap but... I have stopped.
I have personal reasons why I won't ever come here ever again, but the food was always good and cheap. *sigh*
To make my long and personal story short, mentally handicapped person ordered 2 beef with black bean sauce chow funs.
It should be under $10 right? They took his twenty dollar bill didn't give him change and only gave him one order of beef with black bean sauce chow fun.
Yeah, some can say it was this guy's fault for not knowing any better but please bear in mind that he is mentally handicapped... and, he is one of my brothers..
For that, you will never be forgiven Jojo's. And you also had to feel the wrath of my father.
Yes, I am a bitch but I do have a heart and there are certain things I don't mess with. Taking advantage of mentally handicapped people is one of them. You done fucked up for LIFE Jojo's. *sigh*
Jo jo's is cheap. It's dirty. And it tastes -Amazing-. I have a sick fetish for places that are diamonds in the rough, and this certianly fits. Yeah, sure, they got a 80 on their health score card. Yeah, sure, the decor is crap and the service isn't spectacular. That's not why you go to JoJo's.
You go to JoJo's to get _fed_. If you're a college student, JoJo's should be the first one you call (they deliver). I've taken five people there and eaten for $25 bucks, that and everyone had a ton of left overs for their kitchen.
The dirtyness might freak people out, but honestly, it makes the food taste better. It tastes more like someone just MADE it rather than getting it out of a container. It tastes -authentic-.
Oh, I almost forgot, their menu is the length of your arm. It's packed with strange, exotic and amazing dishes (try anything with Ginger). You'll always be lost for choice.
JoJo's get's a four, (even though it's a five in my heart) because, well, there is plenty of room for improvement. I just don't know how they could improve it without making it more expensive. If they made it more expensive, well, it just wouldn't be JoJo's.
Eat it.
The Fantastic 4 landed here for early AM meal...@ 8am to be exact and that is the time that this restaurant opens. Matt has passed by here often, but never ate here and tempted to. What attracted us was the early breakfast specials for $2.50 on selected AM meals. Despite the Health Dept scored this restaurant a 82, it can't be that bad, but the price was too good to deny.
The four of us each ordered the special. Matt ordered the Chicken and Macaroni soup, which is a Grilled chicken with frozen Peas and Carrots over Chicken Broth soup. Wife ordered the Grilled Cheese sandwich and the kids ordered Sausage, Egg and Toast, and split a order of pancakes. All of our meals, including a cup of coffee (.25 extra for refills)for the adults and juice for the kids for under $3.00 each. Decent meal without putting a dent in your wallet. You can't beat that!
Matt decides to comeback here again for lunch time, this time with his co-worker. Matt ordered the Curry Chicken over rice. Co-worker ordered the Combination-Meal package, which was the Mongolian-Beef over Fried Rice and Egg-roll. She subtituted the Fried-Rice for plain White Steamed Rice. Both our plates were good and tasty for $5.50 each.
This restaurant also has an affordable special menu from 2pm-5pm. Matt might come back here to check those meal around that time. Don't let the score of 82 from Health Dept fool you, this place is overall clean including the lavatories. Although Matt is curious about the kitchen.
This will probably be one of our default places to go eat. It's not too far away, and parking isn't too bad. There are options - lots of them. The menu has something for everyone. Just the other day, I heard someone ordering take-out - oxtail for one and then hamburger & fries for another.
The food actually tastes good/okay! And it's so darned cheap too. So far, service has been quick. Salt & pepper chicken wings - they're small in size, but the flavor is nummy. I was lickin' my fingers.
It's family-run - not a fancy place. So if you're there early on the weekends, you can treat your ears to two little girls screaming at the top of their lungs and a little boy making his own little noises.
Jojo's is like Ho Jo's, Chinese style.
You can get a little of everything, served quickly, inexpensively, and you can hang out as long as you want.
After reading Euge's review, I decided to try Jojo's for dinner with my brother on Thursday night. Here is the summary of our visit:
1/ Bad lighting. Very bright, clinical. It's not a pretty restaurant. You will not look pretty either. Not good for a 1st date.
2/ HUGE MENU. Let's see, do I feel like Pork Fried Rice? Or maybe Eggs & Toast? Mmm. Maybe spaghetti. No, Garlic Green Beans. Oh, hell bring it all on.
3/ Cheap. 2 Soups, 2 Appetizers, 2 Entrees, 2 Drinks + Leftovers = $21
4/ Fast. Nearly instantaneous. Food comes out in the order that it is ready, not necessarily the way you order it.
5/ Good food. Consider the price/value relationship. Not greasy, though definitely not high end. Better than most.
Appetizers: Cream Cheese Wantons (good) and Salt & Pepper Chicken Wings (very good, large portion)
Entrees: Black Bean Rock Cod in a Clay Pot (very good) and Sweet & Sour Chicken (a bit too sweet)
6/ Nice Service. Not warm, but friendly enough. We were there around closing time and they were still letting people in. We didn't feel rushed at all.
I felt a late-night diner vibe, only with endless cups of tea rather than coffee. It would be a great place to discuss illicit business, as no one in there gives a shit what you are talking about, or how late you come in, or how long you stay. I like it.
It's in my hood so I will definitely be back.
If you find it amusing that the owner's 4-yr old kid throws a tantrum at the restaurant, rolling and dragging himself on the sticky floor while the grandpa just looks over him and yells, "go ahead and continue. see if I care.", then Jojo's is the place for you.
I found it very uncomfortable that the owner's kids are there most days of the week (I've been here for breakfast and dinner, and every single time I see them). That particular 4-year old kid was dragging himself on the floor and eventually found his way under my table. I gave a look of uneasiness to the grandpa, but he ignored my glance, just like how he ignored his grandson's tantrum. I coulda stepped on the damn kid and shoo him outta my way, except that I was really hungry and had to finish my $2.75 french toast slabbed with artery-clogging butter.
A $12 bill later (which consisted of 4 breakfast entrees, none of which made a lasting impression), I vowed never to go back to that depressing place. Instead, I made a stop to my local supermarket to buy my own bread, eggs and syrup instead.
You have to order carefully and go with someone who has tried the plates before. The salt and pepper chicken wings are superb but other plates are yucky. The prices are low, hence all the CCSF kids crowding here but I wish they would spruce the place up, take a little ajax to the dirty walls, its not appetizing. I always do take-out. Gotta wonder if the eating area is so dirty how clean the kitchen must be?
Not much of breakfast person, so I took my lady to a place that can serve up breakfast, lunch, and dinner at any time! In fact, JoJo's closes at 2am for you late nighters. Definitely, a great alternative to those who are tired of Denny's or IHOP.
I loved their greasy Beef Chow Fun (flat rice noodles) and their Bannana Milk Shake. Their scrambled eggs, however, were not mixed well, for their were traces of white spots all across. Yucky! And that's right, I had breakfast and lunch at 9:30 in the morning. Yes, I'm a pig--but only when there's value. So don't front.
Towards the end of my meal, I noticed their scorecard hiding upon the front counter. I was real curious to see, especially since I use that famous green piece of paper as basis behind the cleanliness and upkeep of their kitchen and staff. I took a peep of their score and, my jaw, it dropped in disgust. Score was an "80"? I mean how bad (or even dirty), does a restaurant have to be to earn an "80"? I've seen many in the "90" range, but a flat "80" is inexcusable. I won't come back here again unless the situation meets these circumstances: I'm broke, I'm around the area, and I haven't eaten in at least two (2) days. JoJo, whoever you are, clean up your act, boyee!
This place was a disappointment.
We decided to try it because we're cat sitting in the 'hood, and wanted delivery since my hubby is sick with the death. Looking on yelp, the reviews were pretty good as far as the tastiness factor goes, and we were bordering on hangry (that is, so hungry that you become angry, which is a fearsome place, indeed) so we ordered.
The ordering experience was odd, with a lot of miscommunication, despite the fact that I tried to go slow and enunciate. The woman taking my order seemed kindof frustrated, but I was patient.
The food came quickly, which was nice, and it was cheap - less than $20, which is a steal, really.
I wanted to like it, but the food was just bland. We got the Pot Stickers, BBQ Pork Fried Rice, and Ginger Beef, which sounded great on the menu. But, they were sad to look at, and not flavorful at all. I wouldn't be surprised if it was just reheated frozen food, which was not what I expected after reading the yelps.
Goes to show there really isn't much good food in this area, and I'm going to stick to Amy A's recommendations next time!!
After discovering this place, I think I'm going to eat here everyday after my sister and I get out of City (aka "Shitty") college. It's so damn close to our school and I can't believe I didn't know about this place.
I like everything I've tried so far on their menu.
Recommendations:
- Rock Cod in clay pot
- Beef chow fun with gravy: Classic love.
- Salt & Pepper shrimp
- Deep fried cream cheese: OMFG this is the bomb!! Kudos to whoever that invented this. They wrap cream cheese in wont ton wrapper and deep fry it. Holey moley. Tates so good, but so bad for your health!
- Beef Stew over lettuce: I love stew.
Oh yeah, if you eat in, they give you a complimentary bowl of their house soup.
Boy do I love free stuff!
I go here EVERYTIME I go to the car tuning shop next door or to my sister's house.
I go there so much that the owner of the place.(she works crazy hours like 8am - 9pm 7 days a week) and her husband know me by name.
I always order their salt/pepper chicken wings which are incredible and cheap. They come out cripsy, salty, spicey and sweet. Incredibly addicting.
In addition, I order their black pepper sphaghetti w/beef strips. This delectible dish comes w/a black pepper gravy sauce that totally gives a full flavor and the black pepper gives it a light punch. Very good and hearty.
They literally have over a 100 different food dishes you can order. My friends and I find it very difficult to get our meal to get over 20 dollars for 2 people w.out getting full.
They have korean style chicken/beef w/broccoli over rice...
They have lots of chow mein, fried rice, and basic Panda Express style dishes.
In addition they have awesome hot dishes like sphaghetti w/baked porkchop on top.
I have yet to even make a dent into the vast menu, but my goal in life is to try everything on their menu. I'm about a 10th of the way there.
Their breakfasts are SUPER CHEAP! Forget denny's. YOu can get eggs, toast, hashbrowns and stuff for 2.99.
IT's not as taste rambunctious as Boot/Kimo's in Hawaii..but you can't beat the price.
The actual place is a hole in the wall, shoddy chairs, etc, and suspect bathrooms..but who the heck cares.
This is the kinda place to get really good bargain eats for cheap prices.
OOOh..almost forgot..get the friend fish appetizer too. They make it perfectly flaky.
Also..learn to navigate through the crackhead guys who hang out around the street..and just don't show fear...if you just walk by like a regular person..they don't bother you...
Droppin some street knowledge...hehe
A friend of mine kept telling me 2 go check this place out and I did not
listen until today. It was okay food really I was tempted to try the Burger
but I got a rice plate instead Mongolion Beef Greasy but good
Then I tried to get greedy and order pot stickers I hated them 2 undercooked for me I like them crisp, Plus did not like the filling
I will go back though cheap food and close 2 my house
some food are really good, like chow-fan,
some food are really bad, like salty polk wonton.
and the waitresses are ugly .
Came here yet AGAIN a few weeks ago because me & my friends were hungry . I got the chicken cutlet with spaghetti which was HORRIBLE . The cutlet was not deep fried properly and the spaghetti was pretty bland . I also got the cream cheese wonton which didn't really taste good . I got a hot milk tea ( I forgot the HK milk tea from last time tasted weird ) which tasted really weird and not sweet at all !!! So yeah , it's not me people .. it's the HK milk tea . NEVER EVER coming here again .

ABSOLUTE CRAP .
This is by far probably one of the worst Chinese cafes I've ever been to in my whole… Read more »
Sweet. Where else can I get some great kung pao chicken while Erin gets her bacon egg and cheese (although slight mishaps on that one)?
Cheap as hell, $11 for lunch/breakfast and sodas for 2 people. Holy moly. I can dig that.
The bacon egg cheese thingy came covered in mayo, Erin don't do mayo, so they brought her another sandwich, but it was ham instead of bacon. She dealt ad just ate that, but it looked ok (I don't know from pork).
Also, they gave me chicken soup with my meal. Yum. Kind of weerd though, definitely was like, chicken soup a la my mommy (but of course it can't compare to mommy's soup...nothing ever can!)
Good times, quick meal, etc.
I don't ever want to go here again. But that's because there is no good reason for me to be out in this neighborhood. If I'm out here, it's because I've done something foolish, or am about to.
That said, if you have done something very stupid and end up out here, and have a hankering for pancakes, then this place is acceptable. I personally very rarely hanker for those, so I would probably just go to the McDonald's a block away and get 2 sausage burritos.
The service definitely left something to be desired. I was told that NO, I could NOT get a grilled ham and cheese sandwich. And then it took at least 35 minutes to get the food, and it all came out at different times. Half the table still hadn't gotten their food when the other half were done eating. It was borderline ridiculous. And I don't call spending $10 for breakfast especially cheap either. So yeah, this place is kinda gay. But I guess it is suitable punishment for being dumb enough to go get wasted at Delirium.
