Came here as it has been in the neighborhood for awhile and I never ate their food ever before and I've lived in the area for over a decade. I decided to give it a shot. To my surprise there was a lot of people in the restaurant. It felt like a local spot. The place has a few indoor seating, but not too much. It felt very eclectic the interior decorations. The food was alright, but the service was better. I ordered the steak & egg burrito which was good. The portion was huge so it definitely filled me up. The pico de gallo sauce is what made the food. I also ordered the special weekend drink which was really strong, it had a big bang for the buck. The tiramisu at the end for dessert wasn't bad either. I may or may not return depending upon my mood.

A go-to spot for tasty Mexican food and drinks. I recommend their Aguas Frescas, always so delicious!! The tacos placeros, mole enchiladas, and tortas are my favorite. If you come on the weekend for brunch there may be a bit of a wait. But overall the staff is super friendly and attentive.

Made our way here on a Friday afternoon for heated outdoor seating during brunch. Plenty of tables available in the enclosed heated section as we got a two-seater off to the side. Giant menu has all the favorites you'd expect with some brunch specials thrown in as well. Decided on the Carne Enchilada Torta ($11) to go along with a Bloody Mary ($5), and a Coffee ($2). Drinks come out first - a strong hit of spice in the bloody mary, but not overpowering. Torta is a well pressed, sandwiching layers of beef, cheese, salsa, and veggies. Super hearty and a wonderful balance of all flavors - no hot sauce necessary. Dish also comes with a handful of thin-cut fries, that are not overly salted. Server here is friendly and efficient, taking care of all the tables by herself. ?Will likely come back to try all the other stuff on the menu.

I've been in this place twice and they offer great mexican breakfast! Its located in a residential area in Queens. The place is cute with their colorful decor and I recommend going there early around 10am on weekends to get seated right away. I got carrot juice for drink and it was refreshing. I also tried their hot chocolate before and it was really good too. My bf got their coffee and they gave you a big jar of coffee. For food I ordered the french toast, it has strawberry, banana & blueberries. They put the sauce on the side that taste a little sweet and a little sour. I really enjoyed this food. The bread taste so good and not overwhelming. My bf got the omelette and side order of bacon. He enjoyed everything! Huge serving of food. Surely you'll be completely satisfied with the serving and taste! My new spot for brunch!

Love this place. One taco was big enough to fill my stomach and it was only $3.50! I tried the Chorizo-Chicken taco, which had everything I wanted: a spicy kick, cilantro, guac, well-seasoned chicken, and a taco holder. The Banana split waffle here is also amazing and not too sweet. I tried the Spinach omelette as well and it was good but also a taste you can find anywhere in any decent diner or cafe. Finally, the orange juice is a MUST here - it's so addicting! But while the other items on the menu are reasonably priced if not cheap, one orange juice (regular size) is about $5.50 and the large size is ~$10. Regardless, you must try! Most highly recommend.

I was in a mood for Mexican breakfast. So I drove to this Woodside location with my mother and had a wonderful breakfast the owner/server was a treat to talk to. Extremely friendly, kind and considerate. I started with the huevos ranchero, a side of chorizo and some guacamole. It was served with rice and beans and a side of sauces. I wish they had something just a tad more spicy on the side of sauces. But it's good nonetheless. my mom ordered the pancakes which consisted of three giant pancakes and a side of crispy bacon. The side of orange juice was the size of a carafe quite large. I decided to bring home three tamales for my daughter. I look forward to trying their torts and other dishes. Much enjoyed, Thanks

Great little gem. I was in the mood for some Mexican and came across Haab!! Fresh food and cold cold beer! A MUST try...Cheers!

So the first time I went here was for brunch last year. Between the brunch menu and the regular menu, there is plenty to choose from. We put in our order and proceeded to wait 45 MINUTES and our food still had not come. There were other tables (some coming in after us) that were getting food but after a few reminders to the waitress, still nothing and we were on a schedule. We ended up taking it to go because we couldn't deal with it. After reading reviews that were positive we decided to give it a try on a nice sunny day last week. The crowd was light since it was a Thursday afternoon and we sat in their outdoor seating area. The food we got was pretty good. Grilled tilapia tacos were delicious. Mushroom and pablano quesadilla was great. The chicken mole burrito was a little bland with a lot of rice. The waitress was lacking a little attention to us because we were outside but not as bad as the first time. We would go back again and definitely a great outdoor seating place!

Love this little neighborhood spot! Great food especially for Mexican brunch. Amazing drink deals...$6 for margs. Also, the staff is very attentive & polite. Have come a few times & plan to stop by in the future.

Because I'm Haaby Clap along if you feel like a bloated Latin youth Because I'm Haaby Clap along if you have some egg yolk on your tooth Because I'm Haaby Clap along if you know what Haab food means to you Because I'm Haaby Clap along if you ordered the Huevos Tapatio Yes, it is that good, and yes, Pharell Williams would love this place. However, a warning: Haaby, Haaby, Haaby, Haaby Can't nothing... keep it down if you're too full Haaby, Haaby, Haaby, Haaby Can't nothing... keep it down if you're too full So stick to one Huevos Tapatios per person. Otherwise your tummy may hit "eject" faster than a kid in the 80s when they first popped a Culture Club album in their cassette player. What to get: Huevos Tapatios What else: Don't pretend you've tried it if you haven't. Come and try it Pharreal. I was wondering, is Pharell Williams married to Serena Williams? That would be quite a Power couple. I heard she likes N.E.R.D.s so it might work perfectly. The first date would be a little tennise at first but I think they'd make a really Happy couple. However her practicing her shots in the great hall of their mansion would not go well. She'd probably smash Sia's beloved chandelier. If she's going to do that, she'll need a room without a roof. This was one of the first stops on my most recent Queens food tour, and I came here because local CM Jando told me to. He actually instructed me to give it a try while I was still in bed. At his place. But that's just a rumour officially speaking and I don't want to confirm or deny it in public so please don't tell anyone. I came here thinking it was a Greek place. I was hoping to Haab an Gyro. Instead I ended up with a Haabanero. It blew my head off. Which I enjoyed thoroughly. Oh sorry I was talking about the girl I was with, not the pepper nor the food. The food here was very mild. It could Haab a little more spice and still not be too spicy. But if you want some utterly delicious Mexican fare, Haab a little read of my review and I think you'll be very Haaby that you did. I ordered the Huevos Tapatio like everyone told me to. It was *amaaaaaaazing*. It has bits of chorizo and has crispy tostada discs underneath. Greasy and wet and delicious. I didn't think I could like something with eggs and home fry-ish things this much as I'm not a breakfast person, but I absolutely do. It reminded me of a sort of Mexican-esque frittata or skillet of some sort, once it all mixed together, which is inevitable since it's such a crumbly and runny and greasy and juicy concoction. It is beautifully presented, and tastes even better than it looks (in that way, it's just like Jando). I forgot to take a pic until I was halfway through it, as you can see. But there are plenty of other pix where you can see it in all its glory. They're all over the internet for example. So are pix of my thingy, in case you're interested. They now have a location in Brooklyn and a proper restaurant with a different name elsewhere. But I'll always love this little adorable original better, in the heart of residential Sunnyside, a very quiet area that nobody really visits, in a little neighborhood I'd never been to, before I came here to Haab some Huevos. The service was amazing. I'm looking forward to coming back soon and trying different things. I wish we could Haab a place like this in Buffalo, I asked my Uncle if he thought Tapatio would be a good addition to Buffalo, and he said "I'll come and visit you soon, and you can Tap-a-tio as much as you want." I have no idea what he meant by that, but if you read my Uncle Gussy's review earlier today then you probably understand why I am now very, very afraid. I think I need to learn Karate or Tae Kwan Do to protect myself. Or I need to take Jando. I mean Judo. Typo. My Uncle is married to a girl named Ruth, so you'd think he'd leave me alone. But once she is out of sight, he starts up again. He never tries anything when she's in the room. But once she's gone... sometimes, he tells me to "clap along if I can feel it" in a room without a Ruth.

This part of Woodside / Sunnyside gets so little traffic, its more likely than not the only people that come to the Haab are locals. They're the lucky ones, as this is one of the hood's biggest gems, a small but delicious eatery offering comfort Mexican food and a brunch worthy of being among the best. The original in Williamsburg is good, but the Woodside location is easily their best of the two. Sitting on the corner of 48th Ave at the end of a string of Latin businesses, the Haab looks like a small cafe from the outside. There is usually a TV playing soccer games or Sabado Gigante (#1), and tables that can sit 14 people total. Along the rims of the window is a cascade of Jarrito bottles, paper ornaments hanging from the ceiling, and Mexican art along the walls making for some very interesting decor. The service is warm and friendly. While Spanish fare much better in these parts, rest assured the staff speaks English. Delivery is available, they take credit cards, and the most everything on the menu is good. That said, brunch for me is where its at. Try to score some of their tamales, which seem to be freshest in the morning. Huevos con chorizo (sausage) or nopales (cactus) are solid dishes, but the show stopper is definitely their huevos tapatios. An over easy egg on a bed of chorizo bits, on top of a crispy tostada. Combined with their famous chipotle mayo, the bite is a beautiful mess of runny egg yolk, spicy chorizo, finished with the crunch of the tostada, The end result is a foodgasm best experienced during any hungry morning / afternoon. For me, the Haab will remain one of the best spots to grab a casual bite in all of Sunnyside / Woodside. Delivery is quick, but the best experience to take it all in (the music, the service, the people, the *food*) is dine in house. The Haab has my corazon in a bad way. ___________ (#1) Que 'onda Don Francisco!

It's a nice divey and authentic type of Mexican place. Mom and pop shop at its finest. If this was located closer to the city instead of nowhere land, I'm sure this place will kill it. The Mexican corn was one of the best I had. Not drenched in crema fresca like other places. Grilled to perfection. He guac is fresh but it lacked salt and lime. I just ended up altering the flavor myself. The lettuce gives off a nice presentation but pretty annoying if you want to scrap the bowl clean. The steak quesadillas were recommended and it did look good but it was a little bit on the salty side. Also, the steak IMO wasn't seasoned with anything other than salt and pepper. One issue was the orange juice. $4 for a glass of OJ? The OJ cost as much as a taco? Now as I write this, I'm rather bothered by this place than impressed. This is not the single $ sign it deserves. It's more like $$.

Bebidas - well, you got some rather different aquas frescas.

Kevin K.

Okay, so here comes an uncomfortable truth - The Haab is a good restaurant, but it's a bit boring. Before some frat bro goes in there and jumps on my spine (how dare you), let's have a dose of reality. Alright, so when it came to my evaluation of Mexican joints, I have 4 categories. On the very bottom is Taco Bell, or any eatery that serve deep fried saddles of corn slathered with shredded lettuce, mechanically separated meat slime, shredded cheddar and "picante salsa" pretending to be Mexican It has as much right to call itself Mexican as Panda Express have to Chinese food - you might enjoy it for its craptitude or low cost, but never associate it back to the country that it was ganked from, because that shit is foreign to them. Next category is what I call Gringo - the stuff they serve to bros in the Cancun all-inclusives (hey, I am in Mexico and this is what they are serving me, so it must be for real, right?). Huevos Rancheros with coffee on the side, or some kind of aquas frescas that works well in cocktail mixers. Maybe an Enchilada slathered with sour cream (not crema) and half a jar of Goya mole sauce. Abuletas (Mexican grandmas) will slap the shit out of you for that, and most of your Mexican friends will nod politely while laughing about it with their fellow Mexican friends. On the Chinese food scale it's a bit like eating at Mission Chinese or Hot Joy - it might borrow the right ideas, and it might taste great, but don't you dare think of it as suggestive of the cuisine it's borrowing from. The 3rd category is what I usually start with, and I'll call it the Barrio - the neighborhood joint in a Mexican neighborhood that is still rather gringo friendly - they have Tamarindos, flor de Jamaica and Horchatas in the Aquas frescas dispensers (usually off a syrup or a mix), and they got Postobon and Jarritos in the fridge. but they also got the real tacos (small tortilla, onions and cilantro, well flavored protein, choice of rojo or verde) and they know how to make a cemita or a torta sandwich. Solid good food, but it's not meant to challenge your boundaries. It's like ordering takeout from the local corner Chinese joint. It's hiding the regional variations from you, and you are not aware of how low a human will go to feed itself. It might be "authentic" in some sense, but it's a shallow knowledge. The next and final category is what I nickname the "Santeria". Here you start seeing the full breadth and depth of Mexican cooking, with ingredients for tacos like Buche (stomach), Suadero (flank steak), Oraje (ears), Chupalines (grasshoppers), Chivo (goat), flor de calabaza (squash flowers) and Huitlacoche (corn smut), all of those are exceeding delicious when prepared with fresh ingredients. Your establishment will offer up raw radish slices (to munch on) and fried dried chiles (because you need that), and you can get a bowl of pozole (hominy and pork soup, Aztec style with Rosemary) there. It's like going to a Cantonese seafood restaurant or a Szechuan joint in Flushing. You get offal and weird seafood in the menu, and often strange preparations (like pickling crab in Shaoxing wine) that tests your culinary meddle - you want full culinary immersion? This is about as close as it can get without the need for a passport. Think of the 4 categories as like experiencing Mexican food in a Midwest shopping mall food court, the local Chipotle's, the local Mexican joint in Ridgewood/Greenpoint/Billyburg, and 5th Avenue in Sunset park. So given those categories, The Haab is closer to the Barrio than the Gringo - foodstuff familiar to gringos, and maybe a few new discoveries, but nothing mindblowing. Sometimes you might see Tamales and Champurrados offered up, but that's just there to give the idea of "something different". Of course, the question is whether you see the neighborhood Mexicanos popping in - my guess is very likely no: No one with Mexican heritage nearby will spend $11 on Huevos Rancheros, especially when places on 82nd Street can do it cheaper. Plus they will usually just get a coffee with a bun at the local Panderia and work on weekends. Think of The Haab this way - it's an American brunch joint with Mexican influenced decor and some Mexican dishes (solid cooking, my wife's Enchilada Suiza and my Quesadillas both turned out well), but if you invite your local friends they'll tell you to hit a better spot that has more interesting things and a smaller pricetag (like the Colombian bakeries all over Sunnyside - El Pilon is a great place). That is not to say that the Haab is a bad restaurant - far from it. If I got company and just so happen to be in the neighborhood, I'll totally go there (as long as there is a free table). Just don't forget that there is an entire city out there with more interesting Mexican fare, and it's always a good idea to look further down the horizon.

Went on a Thursday with friends. Place was a dive but it had its own charm. I went in looking forward to some authentic and flavorful Mexican cuisine. I didn't come away too impressed. The food was only OK. Flavorless We ordered a fish taco plate and a shrimp taco plate. The corn taco shall held up nicely and had a crunch. But devoid of flavor. I at least expected the meats to have flavor. The tacos both drowned in tasteless "sauce" (was it dressing? Other?) and they were both bland. There was nothing remarkable about it. Also we ordered one Al Pastor corn tortilla taco to try. It came, the color of the spicy pork looking really good, but devoid of flavor. It wasn't even spicy or sweet. And drowned in dressing and avocado sauce? Totally deadened any possible flavor. I was really disappointed - - our go to place in Forest Hills (El Rey Sabor) doesn't even put weird sauce on their tacos, only cilantro and onions, and their meat is flavorful by itself, enhanced with a bit of salsa Verde which you add by yourself. I always recalled ppl saying how Americanized Mexican cuisine drowns food in sauces and sour cream etc. And I actually prefer foods that are less "drowned" or "sauced" unless it absolutely made sense. Yea this didnt work at all. They have this soup that consisted of pieces of white bread, and soup base with minimal spices (?). Really plain. Tasted like bread with hot water. My friend ordered it. He won't order it again. If someone has feedback about how this soup is supposed to be prepared I'd love to hear it. I expected much more from that. ***Best things: Their mango strawberry juice drink. Great alone, and as a mixer. They make their mixed drinks strong. $9 on a regular day. Also their corn taco shells were good and solid, didn't shatter when bitten into. Brunch plates 10$ and $6 drinks on the weekend. They do have a big menu though, breakfast, lunch and dinner. Breakfast all day. read more

The Haab is a great find in the Sunnyside area of Queens. Definitely stop in and give it a try if you haven't been here yet. Affordable prices and some really good food. I had a burrito the last time in here and an omelet this morning. Both are extremely worthy of a note on here. read more

Hate to write reviews less than 4 stars. I can understand one bad thing but multiple poor issues warrants a solid 3 for this place. Service was slow on a Sunday. Waited 45 mins for our food. Give us something to munch on while we wait, like some nacho chips or something. We ordered the nachos, at least give us that while we waited. I had to go down the block, grab some snacks from the bodega to feed my kid. Nachos came, oh boy was it bland. The nachos could use more pico de gallo and salt. All I could taste was the bland bean paste which overwhelmed the dish. Was in the mood for a nice burrito. The Haab burrito was just like the nachos, bland. It did come with a lot meat. Again, the bland bean paste overwhelmed the dish. No amount of extra condiment sauce they provided could save this burrito. I drowned it with the green sauce, spicy mayo, and hot sauce. Still bland. Both nachos and burrito... the taste was right up there with eating bland rice cake crackers. Yeah, you're physically full but oh so unfulfilling. My stomach is growling and pissed at me. Here's another way to put it... remember going to summer camp and as a kid, you see they pour the nice red koolaid into your tumbler. Looks wonderful and you look forward to that familiar sugary sweet fruit punch flavored water. What do you get instead? Red colored water. No sugar, and no fruit flavor at all. It's just water colored red. That's it. As a kid, your face pouts and frowns from such a huge disappointment. Now imagine the adult version, looking at this beautiful looking Haab burrito and nachos but no flavor at all... What's the saving grace from 2 stars? The mango water drink. As others mentioned, it's good. read more

Authentic Mexican in Sunnyside. It's a charming little corner spot and inside the smells of spices and cheese will floor you. There will be a wait once you've ordered your food but it is so damn worth it. The dishes are a little pricier than the "cheap" places around here but the food is so much better. Went there for brunch on Saturday and ordered it for lunch on Sunday! The crane asada burrito is awesome - don't order nachos if it's winter and you're getting delivery, they will arrive cold.

This place has some of the most authentic Mexican food in Sunnyside. The grilled corn is delicious as are most of their other items. It is run by some incredibly sweet family who are very hospitable and were able to alter some menu items for me to include tofu instead of meat, etc. Sadly my recent trip there was not so pleasant. Some woman, apparently a regular, came in and sat down two tables away and she filled up the entire (small) place with this gut-wrenching smell. Sure, it's hot out and whatnot...I get it. You're at a restaurant - please shower? I was so nauseous before the food even came that we requested to move tables across the room. Then the smell started to follow. Bummer that I couldn't truly enjoy my meal. read more

I've been trying to eat healthier in 2008...but in 2007, I would like to grab breakfast from the Haab on my way to work. It's a Mexican cafe, but I have never tried any ethnic food there. I usually just get a breakfast sandwich and a Vitamin Water. They have the standard breakfast deli fare. The plus about this place is that 1.) it's not super crowded and 2.) the people there are always SUPER nice. I recommend it, if you live within a few blocks. While it is nice, and I think the area is lacking a good deli/cafe like this, you probably wouldn't want to travel too far for a standard quick carry-out breakfast. read more

Sorry folks but my experience was not a good one. I ordered huevos rancheros and got a flat and dry slightly burned on the sides egg dish. I forget what the sides were but not very appetizing as in not fresh. I had to get up and ask for my coffee since I was not being asked or served. Because of this I got a dirty look. Very disappointing. Sometimes you have to realize that good down home cooking does not exist in every nook. Barely ate anything on the plate, paid and left looking for breakfast!!

Came here this past Sunday after waiting patiently for two weeks. Longest two weeks of my life! I had this place bookmarked for at least a month and I am so glad that I finally got a chance to visit. I really didn't know what to expect but upon entering it was everything and more. I think this place was a deli or a grab and go place but turned into a sit down joint. I could be wrong but that's the vibe I picked up. They have about 15-20 seats in the entire place. They also have a mini hot bar that's only accessible to the staff. I believe that's where they store the rice, beans, etc. Anyway, they offer a few fresh juices and for some reason they tasted extra fresh LOL. We ended up ordered 3 juices between two people, 2 OJ's and 1 strawberry mixed with guava? I also tried their hot chocolate and that was very tasty! The key to that is that they warm the milk up the same way they would a cappacino and that made all the difference in the world. For our entree we ordered a torta sandwich with chicken and fries and their heuvos tapatios (OMFG) so good. They were both so good. I really had intentions of photographing our dishes before consumption but it all happened so fast. It was gone before we knew it. The only downside and the reason why I didn't give it 5 stars is because of the long wait for our food. I understand a 10 min wait but we waited about 20 mins for our dishes. My guest said that its because they appear to be focusing more on their deliveries which makes sense because a place like this makes most of their money from deliveries but it was a bit upsetting that we had to wait so long. So to sum it up, we ordered two dishes and 4 drinks and the total was approximately $40 with tip and tax. TRY IT and YOU'LL THANK ME! read more

Food is fine but the service is so poor. If you are hungry, please choose a different spot, you will have to wait around 14 minutes for the table but once you get it, it will take 50 minutes to get your food. I have experienced the same situation twice and the staff only says it is because the kitchen is so small... come on! Moreover, they often change their payment policy, one day is only cash and the other day they accept cards. Of course no prior notice. I don't get it! read more

Tried it for the first time and will never go back again. I am from the neighborhood and based on the reviews on Yelp I decided to give it a shot. I ordered an entree and the presentation was terrible. The steak was dry and stiff. Not what I expected and completely a different plate to what I'm used to ordering in other Mexican restaurants. I spoke to 2 of the waitresses and one that I believe was the manager but she lied she wasn't. I explained that I wasn't a fond of the plate and it was my first time at their restaurant. Her response " I'm sorry but this is how we serve it and we don't waste food". Talk about great customer service. She would not switch my plate and I refused to eat it. I paid for an entree I didn't eat BUT walked out saying " MY FIRST and LAST TIME". I rather go down a few blocks to De Mole and get excellent customer service. read more

This is one of Sunnyside's greatest hangover spots. I often spend an entire night of partying dreaming about the delicious breakfast I will eat the next morning at the Haab. It's a small, quaint place with friendly service and a variety of foods from classic American breakfasts (pancakes, french toast, eggs) to traditional Mexican fare (huevos rancheros, chilaquiles). The reason I love the Haab so much is that they make the most AMAZING breakfast sandwich EVER!! I HIGHLY recommend a sandwich on one of their GIANT delicious croissants with the egg OVER EASY. It's messy, but it doesn't get much better than that. WOW. And you can have an entire breakfast feast including fresh squeezed OJ, decent coffee and even a donut if you want, for about $10. This is why the Haab is amazing. read more

My first ever review. Huevos Tapatio was awesome. Service was slow but I do understand because the place was packed on Saturday morning. The only thing I don't like was that the hot chocolate was made from a packet of swiss miss. I love swiss miss but I wont pay 4 bucks a cup for it. I will absolutely eat here again. Wife had the burrito de mole poblano and that was very tasty also. read more

Came here for the brunch on Sunday. Ended up just ordering from their regular, and very extensive menu! Their $4 margaritas are delicious! I loved the mango margarita. This place is more casual and laid back than your typical Sunday mimosa and eggs benedict crowd, but that doesn't matter. The food here is excellent and the service was great. We are excited to try more of their menu. Good slow cooked and flavorful food can't be beat! We found their prices to be more than reasonable for the freshness and flavor. read more

Quite excellent. I took my parents there (and I paid for them!) for breakfast for helping me move into my apartment. Staff is overly-friendly and super-welcoming. I got the huevos tapatios, which seemed like the thing to get--toasted tortilla, bed of chorizo, sunnyside-up (how fitting!) egg and some Mexican crema on top. Goddamn, it was delicious! The egg was cooked perfectly, and the flavors were wonderful. The bottles of condiments they give you--spiced mayo, salsa verde, and a red hot sauce, were great. The potatoes were excellent, too. My only gripe? We were supposed to get toast with the dish--and we didn't! I mean, really...how am I supposed to sop up that liquid yolk? I'll be back. read more

I've only been here for breakfast. Excellent breakfast, indeed. My only complaints are the price and timing. The place is tucked away in a remote corner of Sunnyside, right by the junction of the cemetery and two major highways. Hard to understand the need to charge upwards of $40 for the breakfast for two. Doesn't look like the place where the landlord is trying to squeeze every penny out of them. Also, it takes long time for the food to come out. Weekday breakfast is all about speed, freshness and reasonable pricing, if you ask me. So, I would recommend The Haab for brunch, and may be for lunch. Use them for breakfast only if you won a small lottery, don't have to work, and looking for a place that charges $4 for hot chocolate. I doubt that outskirts of Sunnyside, Queens will be your dining destination then. read more

The place is LOUD albeit with good taste of retro, 90's music and not the modern trash that floods the radio waves so I can rock with that. Place is sized pretty well with an outside seating area and plenty of tables inside the albeit dimly lit bar/restaurant. Coming into the place I was greeted by a blonde woman who seemed to be a supervisor of the area. She directed me to a comfortable seating area and a server took my order afterwards. The place was relatively busy so the wait for my food was kind of in the long range, about maybe 15 minutes. I ordered Chicken & Waffles with Iced Tea and the food was definitely worth the wait. That chicken was so good, a bit on the crisp side but it's solid in taste. The Waffle had such an awesome texture with the right measure of powdered sugar, decorated with Blueberries and Strawberries, the entrée was plated very well. The Iced Tea, I didn't know it was unsweetened so that threw me off but some sugar kinda fixed that. Service was also 'A' Tier. The place was busy so it was a tad on the slow side but they were very attentive. About 3 different servers tended to me whether it was about my order, how I liked it and paying for the bill when I was finished. That's dedication and I always give props to that. I enjoyed my visit here.

They have a giant menu posted on the wall to peruse. When we approached the counter to order, the person manning the register basically ignored us. When she finally acknowledged us to place our order, the interaction was taciturn and curt - no niceties. I ordered the single order pan-fried pancake ($8, but closer to $11 after tax). The menu states a choice between beef, pork, and chicken, but we were only given the choice between beef and chicken. The cashier also gave us a choice between spicy potato or pork floss (I opted for the pork floss), which was not denoted in the menu description. The menu does say it comes with veg, but what they really mean is lettuce/salad. The menu picture online is also misleading because it says it comes with an egg, and displays both a soft-boiled egg and beautiful runny egg cascading over the pancake. Instead, the only egg that was served was one overcooked fried egg (not runny at all!), and it was cold (but more on that later). The quoted wait time for the food was 20 minutes. There's a little station near the counter to grab napkins, silverware, and water. Around 9:30am on a Friday, several tables were filled, but no one had any food (the cafe opened at 9am, so I suppose the kitchen was still ramping up). My friends and I ordered variations of the same dish (the pan-fried pancake), but the dishes were served in reverse order - the person who ordered last got their dish first and vice versa. When one order is more complex than another, it's understandable when the easier/quicker one is served first. Since we all ordered nearly the same dish, this was not the case. The way things were being expedited was not efficient. When they finally called my name, I was excited to dig in, but the dish was cold! The beef was cold, the pancake was cold, the egg was cold and overcooked... I had half a mind to send it back. I'm guessing my order was ready earlier, but it must've sat there because someone forgot about it. Now technically, there are cold elements in the dish, if you count the lettuce and dressing, but there's no reason why the pancake, egg, and beef were all cold... they weren't warm, they didn't retain any heat, they were cold. They were also skimpy on the beef. The only redeeming qualities of the dish were that, fortunately, the pancake was still crispy, albeit cold and greasy, and the pork floss is a delicacy that gave the pancake a little extra oomph of flavor and texture. My friend ordered the Wake Up Combo ($14), which is the pan-fried pancake served with a soy milk and tea egg. Similar to my own egg experience, the tea egg was disappointingly overcooked (think hard-boiled) and not jammy like the picture at all. We all have bad days, so maybe Morning Brunch & Cafe was having one... but this is a skip for me.

The prices were bad here but the service and the food weren't great. When we arrived, we were scoping out the menu, they had it posted in a lot of places but it was kind of confusing. I did like how you could scan a QR code and when you clicked on an item, it was more descriptive of the add-on options or potential meat options. There are approximately 10-13 seats, so not great for a massive party, but good for a small outing or for take out. I saw a decent amount of delivery people come in to do pick ups. My friends and I were ordering and were curtly treated by one of the employees. I ordered the fried vegetable pancake with them since you couldn't order the QR code on the tables. She told me the options of only beef and chicken. I thought pork would've been an option and then she mumbled about the options for the additional topping. I couldn't understand her when she said pork floss, so I ordered spicy potatoes. The food also came out kind of sad and was slow to come out. The order was all wrong as I ordered last and then was delivered my dish first. It was kind of sad because I didn't even realize you should be able to pick up the pancake. It was hard to eat because it kept crumbling apart due to the pan fried falky pancake was a thin layer what just felt like crust. I was imagining more like a scallion pancake with vegetables infused or stuffed in. It also came out cold, and could have used a bit more flavor like a sauce or soy sauce. The spicy potatoe tasted a little undercooked as well. My friend ordered hers with pork floss instead and that tasted a little better. The dish also came with a supposed to be overeasy egg that is supposed to be runny, but was a bit overcooked.

It's definitely a neighborhood bar. It wasn't a small place which I liked so, I liked how it wasn't crowded and there is room and no lines for the bathroom. Regarding the food, I enjoyed the Reuben spring rolls, and meatball sliders were very tasty. The house made chips were really good too. But the other items like the wings in the Thai chili sauce were just okay. The IPA drink that supposedly tastes like blueberry didn't. All in all, I'm not sure if I'll be returning.

It felt like home. We came in as a group of 4 and got a good mixture of food. Everything tasted so good. The serving sizes were great and perfecting portioned. Tastes just like how my mom makes it. I would def recommend this place to friends.

The tinapa was smoky and flavorful, and the bistek was tender with the perfect balance of savory and tangy flavors. The garlic rice and egg tied everything together perfectly. The portions were generous, the food came out fresh, and it tasted just like a home-cooked meal. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy and welcoming. If you're in Elmhurst and looking for authentic Filipino breakfast or comfort food, I definitely recommend giving Renee's Kitchen a try. I've been coming here for over 10 years and I live over an hour + up north and I always travel for Renee's

What a cute little spot! It feels like they are filming a Robert Rodriguez movie there. Matronly mother/host/counter person/ server. Her husband, proud proprietor. Their son, cleaning tables and blushing with every tip he gets... I had breakfast which was perfect. Can't wait to stop by for lunch and try those tamales which were so lovingly put together on display. I also noticed that they have surprisingly interesting collection of beer & wine. I love New York! read more
