A passion for food

About Us

Chef Joaquin Lopez acknowledges that his experience with American, Mexican and Italian cuisine makes it hard to sum up what the cafe has to offer. “We have customers who absolutely love our pancakes, waffles, omelettes and other breakfast offerings. They come regularly and really enjoy the friendly, casual mornings at the cafe where they can eat and visit with friends. On the other hand, we have families who trust us to host a casual event for a graduation party, and those who want a private event Italian buffet for a 50th class reunion or rehearsal dinner.

But not enough people realize yet, that we offer very high quality Italian dinner entrees, at very reasonable prices, served some evenings with salad and dessert and wine if they want – for that night out with someone special. We are working on getting the word out about that. We offer so much here!”

As an experienced business owner, Lopez has been making improvements to the property right along with the expansions made to the menu. The cafe has been painted inside and out, had new booths installed and a new exterior sign erected, gotten some flowers planted and had the parking lot resurfaced. This doesn’t include all of the behind-the-scenes upgrades to equipment, a new point of sale system, beginning to offer carry out and delivery and the launch of this new web site!

With an eye toward the future, there is no shortage of ambition or work ethic in the Lopez family when it comes to their efforts at providing the best food and customer experience possible.

Come and discover the areas ‘best kept secret’ in dining variety and excellence! As one loyal customer put it, “I came in to try the food, and I keep coming back because not only is the food great, but so are the servers. I love the friendly atmosphere here.”
