    I honestly don't remember what was ordered, but everything was soo good amd flavorful! Portions were really big too! I think the only thing was the drink wasn't cold enough for me. But everything else hit the mark! &they have chalk to draw on the outside patio too!

    Cute spot in Lemon Grove!! Staff were so friendly. Food portions were huge!! Prices were reasonable. Would come back for sure. The fries were crispy with a nice seasoning on them.

    Love this cute little place in my town! I always say we need new restaurants that are not fast food and i am happy we are starting to get that! Food is 10/10 and the vibe is even better. Can't wait to go back. Please support this business!

    Such a cute little spot! We went on a Tuesday morning and they were pretty busy but our server took our order quickly and the food came out fast and was hot and fresh. I recommend checking this place out

    New place that we tried out over the weekend in Lemon Grove. The Funky Frenchie have painting murals and decor that gave it a pleasing first impression. We were greeted and seated right away by a nice gentleman, which we can only assume was the owner. Servings were more than enough and the chicken n' woofles had a good taste to it. The dipping sauce for the chicken is an added bonus. There's an indoor and outdoor seating so if you're bringing your little fur baby, this is the perfect spot. Only thing that stood out to us is the "No Public Restroom" sign. It wasn't a big deal for us because we did not have a need to use it but just keep that in mind. Plenty of parking and have not had any issues finding a spot in the businesses in the same area.

    Tried The Funky Frenchie and it definitely lived up to the hype. Got the chicken and waffles with their signature Frenchie-style waffles (shaped like little dogs), and it was both fun and actually really good. The waffles were soft on the inside with a nice crisp on the outside, and the powdered sugar + syrup combo hit perfectly. The fried chicken was juicy, crispy, and seasoned really well. Also tried one of their savory dishes and it did not disappoint--everything tasted fresh and well put together. The vibe inside was clean and chill, and the presentation alone makes it worth coming. Great spot for brunch or if you're trying something a little different.

    Good was good. Mom and pop shop. Not sure how long they have been here but seems new. I'd eat that Philly cheesesteak again lots of extras and all seasoned to perfection. My daughter loves her burger and she is picky. Fries were excellent. I do wish they had a homemade ranch for the fries. I hope they add AC or a fan because it was a bit warm inside and we were looking to cool down. I had their specialty lemonade with several fruit juices. It looked awesome but was a bit sweet and for sure needed to be colder.. please bring drinks out faster on a hot day. They have inside and outdoor patio searing. It is in a small strip mall so parking was super limited. Cute decor and the guy who took Our order was super friendly. But the place only has 2-3 employees so not very speedy. Place was clean. Restroom was tiny and in the employee area. But we were happy they had one or we would have left since we had just come from a soccer game. I am glad I walked to the restroom with my daughter.

    This is a nice family owned breakfast and lunch restaurant in Lemon Grove. It recently took over a long time deli in the area. I came in for breakfast and ordered their house breakfast burrito for $13 plus tax. The burrito came on a sun-dried tomato and red pepper flour tortilla, and came filled with scrambled eggs, hash browns, bacon, and cheddar Jack cheese. I liked that they toasted the tortilla well on the hot griddle after they wrapped the burrito. The eggs were well seasoned nicely, the bacon was tasty, and the hash browns were good. I would have liked a little more cheese in the burrito however. It was a very good breakfast burrito and I would order it again. They offer a good amount breakfast and lunch items, not to mention coffees and a handful of signature French Toasts. There's parking right out front and more in the back. The service was welcoming and friendly. This is a nice addition to the city of Lemon Grove.

    This is a great breakfast place if you're in the Lemon Grove area. You can find free parking in front. You can eat either inside or outside. The staff was very friendly. You pay at the register when you're finished. We ordered breakfast burrito, tiramisu toast, and funky lemonade. The breakfast burrito was pretty tasty and a good size. I loved dipping the burrito into the sauce. The tiramisu toast wasn't too sweet and is good if you don't want something savory. I recommend getting the funky lemonade. It's strawberry, mango, peach lemonade and it's very refreshing. Prices were very fair.

    Breakfast Bowl

    Josh was an exceptional server. All the staff came around to see how we were doing and if the food was up to our liking...which it was! YUMMY! I've added a reminder for October to bring my family for breakfast when they are here to celebrate my birthday for a week. The breakfast bowl was out of this world delicious. Can't wait to return again soon for more.

    The newly opened Funky Frenchie in Lemon Grove is a must-visit for breakfast, brunch, or lunch. Expanding from their Harbor Island location, this spot features free front parking, hip music, and both indoor and outdoor seating. The heart of the shop is the father-son owner duo, who are as welcoming as the food is delicious. Top Picks: * Vanilla Cappuccino: Smooth, balanced, and high-quality. * Berry Banana French Toast: Incredibly filling and flavorful. current promotion: if you bring in your Frenchie, you'll get a serving of their famous Frenchie mini waffles! Great vibes and even better food--definitely give them a try!

    Been here a couple times and the service is great. Breakfast items are decent and they put their own twist on some of the traditional breakfast items. Place is nicer than the outside looks. Dogs welcome and they have treats for dog and water dishes. Overall a new spot that is going the extra mile to get your business place is with giving a shot.

    Love this community feel of a hidden restaurant. I have been here several times and each thing is…read moreso good. They have indoor and outdoor seating and usually live music during the morning, afternoons. Parking can be challenging but oddly I've always found parking. The mushroom gravy biscuits and gravy are top notch. They are directly next to the City Farmers so it nice to grab a coffee and supper both businesses.

    We frequent Nate's at LEAST monthly for their impeccable vibe, delicious eats, and awesome staff…read more We've recommended Nate's to multiple out-of-town friends, and usually bring friends or family with us when we visit. The ONLY reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 (and I'm usually a 5-star/1-star girlie) is that we haven't seen Cari, one of our favorite servers, in either of our last couple of visits. Over a year ago now, Cari stepped UP when I became faint and almost passed out on Nate's front deck. It was a hot day, I am BAD at drinking water but great at sweating; and as I stood up, I turned paper white and the world got fuzzy. Cari swooped in the moment she saw what was happening - making sure I was safely lying down, getting me hand sanitizer for my forehead and a wet cloth for the back of my neck (rapid cooling!), and orange juice for my fluid imbalance. I'm so SO glad Cari was there to take better care of me than I take of myself. I miss our nerdy conversations, and hope she'll be back soon!

    Pulled up to Kujo Eats to show love to a Filipino spot serving up hot, authentic plates…read more With so many options, I had to go with: Kalbi Ribs Chicken Adobo Garlic Fried Rice The Kalbi ribs were solid... personally I like mine a little more well-done, but still packed with flavor The chicken adobo? Spot on. Tender, savory, and hit all the right notes Garlic rice tied everything together perfectly Next time, I'm diving into: Sisig Crispy Pork Belly Lechon ...and maybe go full experience with a Kamayan feast (banana leaves + hands-on eating... real deal) Tip for thought: All the Filipino Uncles play Chess during the day and Singers come out to sing on their Karoke Machine If you're in the area, this spot is DEFINITELY worth checking out Pull up, support local, and come hungry One last thing, if you know any singers that love to compete. There's a singing competition April 24, 2026 from 8pm - Midnight. See flyer for more info!

    Food: Picked up some food for my parents and I and it was delicious!…read moreService: I had issues finding the location and I think it was due to Apple Maps messing up. I eventually found it and when I got there, I met KuJo and he was SUPER nice and down to earth. That alone won me over as a future repeat customer. Ambiance: Gave me that old school feeling of nostalgia as I grew up in the area and it brought back memories even though this is a new establishment. Overall, this is a must try and if you have a chance to meet KuJo, be sure to say hello. Hes a super friendly guy!!!
