The best brunch!! My grilled chicken wrap was so fresh and delicious! Omg the homemade pesto was divine and each item from the tomato to the chicken to the mixed greens was super tasty. Great quality! And wow the dill potato salad (made with some sour cream too which made it so addictive!) was divine. My mom loved her avocado toast. We really liked the little almond biscotti bite at the end. Lovely service too and so cute inside. read more

Went upstate to get my ring fixed...excuse to try a brunch place. Hubby found Ramona's, very highly rated on Yelp. It was difficult to find as there is a small sign by the driveway leading to the parking lot and restaurant. The building is set in, not by the street, and there was no obvious signage. It looks like a simple house in the parking lot. Upon entering, the room felt quaint and cozy. We were immediately seated as we went during the week and it was quiet. Hubby had the pancakes with sausage and I ordered the omelette. The pancakes were tasty and not dense. The sausages were unfortunately 3 small breakfast sausages. For an additional $4, 2 fat sausages would have been nice. My omelette was good but I don't know if I would call it fluffy. The eggs were flat and the only "fluffy" part maybe that the inside of the omelette was slightly undone. Coffee was nice and rich. I gave this place 4 stars because there was nothing wrong and the food was good. Although this place isn't mind blowing, I think if I lived here it would be a nice regular place for brunch. Definitely a place to try for locals. read more

I stopped by on a recent Sunday after a lovely walk around Lake Congers. Upon entering, I noticed the decor is tasteful, elegant and provides a warm ambiance overall. I was then warmly welcomed with the most sunny smile by Stephanie who offered to seat me right away. Since I wanted take out instead, she provided me with a menu and pointed out wonderful options and made great suggestions. I decided on the Turkey chili which seemed like a solid choice. While I was waiting I was introduced to the chef, Christopher and the owner, Ramona. Both Christopher and Ramona were a joy to talk to and despite being busy, were kind enough to spend a little time with me! My meal was prepared and packaged in hardly any time at all and leaving actually felt like I was leaving home! Honestly, it's hard to find such wonderful family values and it was a short but wonderful experience. My turkey chili was rich and delicious and hit the spot. Do yourself a favor soon, take a ride over to Ramona's in West Nyack and try out some of the home cooked with care treats on their menu. Look for Stephanie's million dollar smile! Highly highly recommend. read more

Incredible! It feels like you've been invited over to a friends house for brunch. The atmosphere is calm and relaxed. The dining room is so cozy. I was expecting basic diner food and was absolutely blown away by my Aloha bowl. The price is so reasonable and the food is so yummy! Best breakfast I've had in ages :) truly a hidden gem read more

I'm new to the area and I came here for breakfast. I was searching for oatmeal because I am on a new health journey lol they were the only restaurant in the area that had it on the menu. Very cute, quaint mom and pop style restaurant. The server was so sweet and the chef is cool too! Brought my food out to me. Definitely a nice view with good food. read more

Ramona's is an excellent choice for freshly made foods from their menu. Without a doubt, they prepare the largest blueberry pancakes that I have ever seen or eat, along with very good French toast. Ramona and her family run the restaurant and every one of them are friendly and pleasant. But be aware that the restaurant is on the smaller side and thus, more cozy than many other places. But it is the food prep that you want to go there for. Enjoy read more

Nothing fancy, but good quality food in a cozy environment. Got the Black Forest Ham and Soft Brie sandwich; filling without being too much. Potato salad was good too (could choose from that or coleslaw) as was the iced coffee. read more

Small cute family owned breakfast/brunch nook! The food never fails to be amazing. We always try to go for the egg in a nest and thrive on their French toast. Do not sleep on their Rueben or aloha bowl! So delicious and the staff are super friendly and kind! read more

The avocado toast was exceptionally delicious. The service was phenomenal. I loved the small establishment. I thought I was in the wrong place initially...very intimate. My daughter said the toast was beautiful. We will definitely be back!! read more

Ramona's is a nice alternative when all the Nyack restaurants are jampacked and you don't feature all that and what a nice quiet space to enjoy a decent weekend breakfast or weekday lunch. Ramona's son is the chef and he takes pride in his menu. Ramona is a gracious host and the service is prompt and polite. I wish the menu had a more signature piece to make it better than all the rest. read more

Like you're being invited to someone's house for brunch. Something about the atmosphere makes one feel happy and provides an intimate experience in this small space. The food was excellent and the service was great and did not feel rushed. The food was well portioned and delicious, like a meal made for the family. My partner and I left super satisfied and will be returning to try more dishes. Thank you for having us! read more

A quite cozy and friendly small cafe nestled in the suburbs of NY. Everything on the menu is delicious and the owners and staff are warm and friendly. White table cloths adorn the 30 or seats eatery. Nice place to get breakfast, brunch/lunch. I believe they're open for breakfast and lunch. Family owned business. Prices are very reasonable for the quality of food you get. Highly recommended if you're in the area. read more

Wow! The place is cute and cozy, although I would have to go again when is full to see how I feel because the tables are very small. Nonetheless, is a complete contrast from the outside. The houses around look like they are going to fall any second, and it will even make you hesitate if you are at the right place. But once you go inside is a different environment. The service was attentive and kind. My partner and I made it just before they closed (were the last ones) and everyone was nice and welcoming. They have the cutest, fluffiest dog as part of the staff - enough to say he's employee of the month. He doesn't come inside, greets guests outside sometimes. Of course I want to be a regular now. The food was really good. I am very picky with dry chicken and this was juicy. Not usually a fan of wraps because I feel like sometimes everything gets mushy or you have to search for the perfect bite but this one was flavorful, well seasoned, and had a good portion of everything. It came with a tasty balsamic sauce but honestly you did not even need it. With or without it was a success. My partner was super impressed with the sliders and devoured the whole dish even though he "wasn't hungry". He said the patty was moist, well seasoned, nice choice of bun, a pickle for the perfect amount of acidity. Both dishes had the option of cole slaw and potato salad so we tried one and one. I was not 100% a fan of the potatoes because I am particular about onions, peppers and celery. It's a personal thing so if you don't mind, try it. I would only say I needed some salt but I ate some with the juice of the pesto coming from my wrap and it was good. My partner liked the Cole slaw but I think he was more focused on the sliders to really be descriptive. I liked the prices for the place, quality of food, and proportions. Overall we spent $50 with tip and 2 sodas. We will be back and I am very curious what they would do if they served dinner! read more

Up in the NY-NJ area for a wedding and stopped at Ramona's based on Yelp recommendations. Atmosphere: - Quaint, quiet and comfortable. Ramona's is an old home transformed into a breakfast/brunch spot that makes you feel like you're sitting in someone's living room (maybe even your own). - The general atmosphere is laid back without a rush. Service: - The service was excellent. Service was with a smile and everyone, including the chef came in and checked on us! Food: - Simple food done right. I love and appreciate places with a small and tasty menu. There's nothing overly complicated; it's home cooking! - We ordered the three egg omelet with unlimited toppings - yes, there's no per extra fee, great concept. We also got the lox and eggs. Both were served with potatoes and toast. - The flavor of both dishes were perfect. Everything was fresh and flavorful. The portion size was larger than expected too!! If you're looking for a laid back, down to earth breakfast spot Ramona's hits the mark! read more

I thought this was a great breakfast spot. Food was hot and served quickly. It had lots of options. Staff were friendly. Prices were a little high but that is reflective of the location. read more

Great local spot for breakfast/brunch! The restaurant kind of just looks like a house on an unassuming street, which gives it a nice small-town local vibe. The interior is cozy with a homey indoor area and an outdoor patio for seating. As for the food, the Aloha Hawaiian Breakfast Bowl was very good - the pernil (shredded pork) was tasty, the pineapples had a nice grilled flavor, and the poached eggs were nice and runny. The white rice underneath was a bit plain though. This bowl cost me $12, which was a pretty good deal. I also got an apple juice, which tasted store bought, but it was only $2, so that's fine. The staff were super friendly and helpful, and the service speed was fast. Overall, I am giving Ramona's Cafe a solid 4 stars for its quality food, great service, and nice homey small-town vibe. read more

I went to Ramona's Cafe on Sunday for brunch. I must say I was pleasantly surprised! While it may not look like a lot from the outside, inside is a quaint, welcoming & homey feel of a diner, where the owner & sweet waitress make sure you're greeted warmly & you take a seat. Besides walking in & feeling welcomed, it's so cozy. The aroma of fresh cooked chili was lightly perfuming the place, seducing you into taking some home before you left if you didn't have it while there. I love that they always serve breakfast! We opted for breakfast & were able to select our own fresh ingredients for our omelets & a great selection of bread... not just white toast or wheat...They had sour dough, rye & whole grain...this was a first & I must say, great! The coffee was freshly brewed & they didn't skimp giving you weak or watered down coffee, (my experience from other places). By the way, I bought 2 tubs of the chili home & we had it for dinner! The Chili was delish! If I have to complain, I just wish the tub was a larger size because it was a little pricey & left us wanting more! While we were still seated, (before leaving) the Chef came out to see if everything was good...& it definitely was! We were happy at everyone's warm & attentive manner! This little hidden gem is a must visit & will now be one of my regulars! So happy we went to Ramona's! read more

Lovely ambience, delicious food with an interesting breakfast and lunch menu, and cheerful service. A neighborhood gem!

I stumbled upon Ramona's after an early morning breakfast spot search. Very quaint atmosphere. I had the omelette with cheese, onions, and peppers with a side of home fries. They were so crispy and good. The omelette was good and fresh and well cooked. My daughter had the French toast and it was also very good. I might come back but I found it a little pricey. $40 for an omelette, French toast, a coffee, and an OJ. read more

What a wonderful find! Cozy and most importantly the food was delicious. Thank Ramona and Chris for being so gracious. read more

Decided to venture out to this place and give it a try. It's a cute place. Small, but very homey. We got seated right away. We ordered a short stack of pancakes as an appetizer. The pancakes were really good. Served with powdered sugar and strawberries and blueberries. We all liked the pancakes. The coffee was yummy, too. My daughter had the all-American breakfast. She doesn't like the yolks runny....we ordered it sunny side up over hard. The cook was so nice. He really tried to get the eggs to my daughters liking, and he did. Hubby and I got the omelets. It was delicious!!! My husband liked the omelet because it wasn't too thick. The home fries were delicious, too. This place is def a must try. Everyone is super sweet, and they genuinely appreciate your business. read more

An absolute gem, no two ways about it. Leaving congested Manhattan and getting a breath of fresh air upstate was exactly what we needed. Finding a relaxed, cozy, mom n pop eatery that reflected that upstate breath of fresh air was what we found at Ramona's. Small cafe with just 1 server and 1 chef -- two people working hard to deliver an A+ experience. Chris was in the kitchen and cooked up some amazing dishes. I had the best omelette here I've ever had. Potatoes were so perfectly crispy -- attention to detail matters to Chris. He had no ego and was happy to run out from the small kitchen to assist tables as needed -- a lost art that you'd never find here in NYC. The place is cozy, the food is excellent and the service is warm. I'll stop here every time I'm in the area. Kudos read more

GREAT chef! Interesting menu .Nice atmosphere. Good parking. All in all good experience

I LOVE RAMONAS!! The service is always great, they are all super attentive! Food always comes out quickly and tastes amazing, I haven't had anything I didn't like on their menu! The building is very small but so cute, decorated well and if it's nice outside they have a patio as well! HIDDEN GEM!! You have to go here! read more

This is such a cute place! Love the vibe and the food is always amazing. Also the owners are super nice and always welcoming. Been going here since they opened and never disappointed. I've had their "Just like mom's pancakes" and "as you like it fluffy and light three egg omelet"- both are delicious. Their setup is adorable too..they have roses on every table. Glad they're still open. read more

Awesome food. Breakfast and lunch. Friendly and excellent service great ambiance. What a surprise

Love this place! It is cute and a perfect little spot for a Sunday morning brunch! Food is tasty too!

A nice little breakfast/lunch place I found this one on Yelp, and it was a great find. Ramona's is located away from commercial areas. This house converted into a restaurant is a hidden gem in the true sense of the phrase. It has been open for less than a year. We received a friendly greeting and coffee as soon as we walked in. They offer a very creative menu. I was immediately drawn to a dish called Comforting Eggs in a Nest, shredded corned beef and a couple of poached eggs with Hollandaise sauce, atop a nest of hash browns. This unique twist on Eggs Benedict was clever and really very good. I love corned beef and while I wished there was more of that, I also loved that the Hollandaise sauce had a distinctive lemony flavor. I so often find Hollandaise bland, this wasn't at all. The crunchiness of the hash browns as the base really worked well. It is a small place, I counted 9 tables. Cozy. They also have a larger deck outside for when the weather is better. A visit to Ramona's is an opportunity to support a local family run business and have a wonderful breakfast too. read more
