“WOW! Fantastic brunch!Overview: Would I return: definately yes!We came here for brunch and drinks. Our server was excellent. It was my first time here so I asked alot of questions about their signiture drinks and specials. She was very patient and offered good recommendations.I ordered the Mimosa flight and the French toast sticks. The rest of my group ordered: the fully loaded bloody mary, the brusheta, chicken and waffles, the tiajuana bowl, pints tostadas, and the pints platter. My husband has dietary restrictions  so i asked that all the sauces in his Tiajuana bowl be on the side. His order came out perfect with all the sauces on the side. He was very pleased with the breakfast which is a testament to how good the food was prepared, because he is the pickiest eater i know. I would definatly come back again.Dietary restrictions: Very attentive to dietary restrictions“

“In another post, I told you about a best friend of mine who recently passed away at the young age of 66. This was his most favorite place in the whole world! Lefty and Romo's put up with a lot from my friend, he was known to knock down a few, but they still treated him with respect and acted like they were genuinely happy to see him when he visited the joint! That made him feel good although he never said anything, I know it did because they had every right to permanently ban him on several occasions but instead made sure he got home safely, so he could come back with his dignity. That's pretty unheard of in this day and time, so Kudos to an establishment who treats their regulars like that!The other night we went with a whole group and I just got appetizers. Everyone else got dinners and sandwiches. I've eaten there before and have always enjoyed my food but maybe I just wasn't in the mood to try the gator but I didn't like it very much, it just didn't feel good in my mouth and not much taste. Other people in the group, however, really enjoyed the appetizer. Also, I ordered clam strips as an appetizer and they even warn you on the menu that they may be chewy. They did taste good but having to chew excessively like that was too much work for a lazy eater like me, so I gave up after awhile.As always, the service was excellent, they were very busy, packed, but that didn't make any difference to our service or our food being served in a reasonable timeframe. Lefty and Romo's is a great place to go have some cocktails, have a quick meal or a leisurely dinner with friends and/or family. Pretty comparably priced to most restaurants of their kind and if you haven't visited at least once, you should make it a point to go. I'm pretty sure you won't be disappointed!“

“Feb and March 2024: I tried your burger special of the month. Feb was Mikey's Melt on marbled rye. I was so pleased!! Perfection. Everything blended and I savored every bite !!! A single smash patty was plenty.I went back a few wks later in March, not knowing u did different specialty burgers each month and was so disappointed i couldn't get the same burger. The guy with the great outgoing personality taking my order said Ham & Jam was the March burger of the month, explained it. I was leary with those ingredients, but took his word and ordered it. DANG !!!! What a tasty burger, all those perfectly blended ingredients !!!! Ham, egg, and jam ?!! YES, more please !!Now for my next visit I won't know what to try but feel confident it will be another creative invention that I will love ❤️!!“

“Visited for the first time and it was AMAZING. I wanted to try as many of the soups as possible so the server suggested I do a trilogy of soups. It's basically three soups to try. I tried the cheese, the gumbo, and their signature onion. All of them were amazing. Especially the French onion. For appetizer, I ordered the carpaccio, the Fried goat cheese, and the spinach and artichoke dip. They were all very good. After all these appetizers we were pretty full, but I still wanted to try an entrée. I decided to go with the wedge salad and add steak to it. The steak was done to perfection and the wedge salad was cut perfectly so it wasn't overwhelming. The server we had was quick, and very attentive. As far as the ambience and the decor, it was very cozy and reminded me a bit of European restaurants where space is tight, but you're not feeling crowded. I would consider the attire of the patrons to be a little more dressier than casual based on what everyone was wearing but definitely did not feel stuffy. I will be going back because they have several more items on the menu that I want to try.“

It seems as if there are quite a few "regulars" that come in to eat, which makes the atmosphere very comfortable. The service was great, and the food arrived quickly. I intend to try out some of the lunch menu items next as there are several options that sound delicious! Herbie's Cafe is definitely a place I would recommend, and I look forward to taking family to eat there.“

“Amazing food.. I have ordered takeout from here about five times now the burgers are great and the burritos are also really good.. gave food a five-star atmosphere of 5 star in service a three-star the only reason I'm giving service a three-star is because when you order carryout it requires you to go sit down at what is usually a packed bar with zero seats open and wait until you get noticed and are able to provide the name on your order.. with that being said the bar is very neat and clean and the patrons are also very nice and kind it's more of a restaurant than it is a bar I just wish I did not have to stand at the bar to ask for my order everything else is amazing it seems like a really nice restaurant the only other thing is there's Hobo's Tavern send handsome hobos and they're both right next to each other and I've spoken to multiple people that are confused on where to go and what the difference is between the two of them because they both share the same parking lot and it's just confusing why there are two separate buildings with two separate namesVegetarian options: Sides, saladsDietary restrictions: Ask and receiveParking: Huge parking lot with handicapped spacesKid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

We had the French dip, mushroom and Swiss smash burger, chicken strips with onion rings, and a kid’s cheese burger. Our food came out correct, hot, and tasted great.Our waitress was also very good, I think her name was Kate. She was attentive, friendly, and let us know about menu choices and if there were up charges for things such as extra sauce.The atmosphere was nice, bright, and clean. There were large windows along the two exterior walls with table seating and then high tops in the middle. There was a larger bar as well with seating.We will definitely go back and will recommend to others. I wish I had remembered to take some pictures.“

“Stop #22 on our Hundreds of Hops 2024 self-guided US Hop Passport Tour The space is phenomenal. It's large & well thought out with whimsical touches. I can see it getting packed, tho it was relatively quiet on a Sunday afternoon. The barkeep was friendly and certainly wasn't pretentious. I half expected the ole "Ghostbusters whaadya want" line, but we were met instead with more of a "where are you from, where have you been & have you been here before" greeting. Our beer was decent, falling mid-range, and we didn't get any food. If I were in the neighborhood, I'd go back, but I wouldn't make a special trip to go.“

“I have been going to US 31 BBQ since I was a kid in the 1980s with my parents who ate there when they were younger. They always said the BBQs were always excellent, and the taste/recipe never changed. They are not the traditional BBQs with a red sauce but more of a shredded meat in natural juices topped with a delicious, signature relish. I grab a meal whenever I am near and always am happy. Classic and delicious.“

The atmosphere is nice. However, this place is very busy, so make sure to get there early. If you want to get the worm! I just love everything about the place. And I can't wait to go back next time!

Courses Restaurant American • $$

“I often times forget that courses exists, but I'm truly glad it does. I've been here multiple times now and the experience has been consistently good. It's inside of the culinary institute and is more or less a classroom experience but I wouldn't let that discourage you as the students do an incredible job. I'm always impressed with the service, the generous portions, and the quality of the food. It's a really great way to have some finer dining at a reasonable price. Speaking of the food the menu changes fairly regularly based on the term, so you'll want to check the latest on the site before you go. It's all over the place, but always good. My favorite thing to order here is the coffee! They bring a full French Press, a few biscotti, and some truffles out as part of it -- all for $3! Give it a try!“
