“One of my wife's favorite places to have lunch and dinner, we've always had good experiences in the past. Unfortunately in our last visit, we were not sat in the table that we requested, also, there was food on the ground that our server did not pick up, and I end up stepping all over it. The food tasted great, unfortunately, the food was lukewarm, it also took a very long time for my wife to get her glass of wine which in that time her pizza got cold. I would also like to suggest that your managers be more proactive in greeting and getting to know your regular customers, checking on your customers to see how their service and food is would be nice. “

“Corner breakfast Cafe with excellent staff and good breakfast food options. It can get busy after 10:00 hours (10 a.m.), yet the outside patio seating allows for those of us who like the fall or spring weather. There is a section on the patio with a cloth awning which would allow for a inclement weather day. ?.Food, I enjoy fusion cuisine so I like "George's Omelet " with rice. See Erikca C.'s review fir a picture if you're curious. what it looks like. I agree with the majority of positive reviewer, thus fine breakfast cafe delivers particularly well on service AND food. See Louis's review for pictures of the menu.To the reviewer who had "runny eggs" and posted a picture of scrambled eggs. If the cook over cooks the scrambled eggs the light brown burn color and particularly rubbery taste wouldn't appeal to anyone who enjoys food. Take that point from an expericed cook with a minimum of 12 years professional cooking. In California. See Paragary's Bar and restaurant, Cafe Bernardo's The Capitol Grill, El Centro Cocina, and a dinner in Davis on Richardson road off of highway 80/interstate 80.Parking: You might find parking across the street on the dirt lot next to Cesar Pizza. Otherwise, There some parking on surrounding streets. I walk down to this establishment for exercise.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy wheelchair accessible entrance and tables available for dinning besides the fixed place booths to the right of the entrance in the cafe.“

“I am rooting for this local business as they deserve all the support they can get. I ordered two items off their limited menu: fried chicken sandwich and fried chicken loaded fries. I thought the crispiness of the chicken was absolutely perfect; however, I did think the chicken meat itself lacked a lot of flavor. I thought the fries were cooked to perfection and tasted great with the spice blend that I believe the owner created himself. Some things that would have made it a lot of better was if they had added some lettuce or onions to the burger as it was literally just a piece of fried chicken sandwiched in between 2 buns for $12. The loaded fries could have used some more toppings like onions, some bacon bits, jalapenos, cilantro, and maybe drizzled with a homemade creamy or spicy sauce. These additions would not only take their food to the next level but just give the food that extra pop of color to make it more appealing! The store was hard to find and was located on a one way street in downtown Stockton. There is not a clear sign outside on the building besides a stand up sign outside. From the outside, it may look closed. Tip: I parked about a block away and decided to walk. They are at the end of a chain of stores located right next to a parking lot! It was also empty when I visited and there was a lot of seating. The service was great as they took my order and had my food ready within 10 minutes. Although I understand it is located in downtown which can get more dangerous at nighttime, I wish they had the option to do delivery or be open later as this would made a perfect a quick dinner or a late night snack delivery. I hope to be back to try some of their desserts.“

“We are repeat customers at Heirloom. We visited this restaurant during a very difficult Time. It was my 4 year old nieces favorite place for Pancakes. We went to celebrate her after her passing, for her Birthday. The owners and staff at this establishment showed incredible compassion and empathy during our visit. They went above and beyond to ensure that our family felt supported and cared for during such a challenging time . Their genuine compassion made a world of difference, providing comfort and solace during a heartbreaking time. The kindness and dedication of the staff at this restaurant truly touched my heart, and I will always be grateful for their support. I highly recommend this restaurant for not only their delicious food but also for the exceptional level of care and compassion they extend to their patrons.“

The crab is fresh and so yummyyyy! They sell these marinated shrimps in a box that pair so well with the crab salad. My dad will be purchasing an order for 4 tomorrow! I CAN"T WAIT!ALSO! It is very clean inside! Do not be discouraged as it is located in a very particular area lol When you walk in...well you will see when you go! So worth it!Food goes fast! Order ahead!
