Yummmm. But a carafe of coffee was $9.00. Breakfast for two (generous portions) was $44.00 plus tip. They have a small surcharge added to every bill to offset rise in wages.

1. Food was delivered to the wrong address.
2. Pancakes arrived with no butter, no syrup. I am in a vacation rental without my own pantry and with a hungry child who isn’t keen on eating plain pancakes with no syrup. When I called the restaurant, I was informed that the staff is no longer allowed to provide any condiments unless the customer specifically requests them. Apparently, there is no charge, but they don’t provide them unless the customer asks. I understand wanting to reduce waste but at least make sure you let customers know that condiments are only provided upon request.

The best food spot in the Valley, hands down. Stop looking for a place to eat and just go here!

Poor parking, staff more interested in getting you to up order than listen to your full order. So so food. The Spicy Bloody Mary was good!

This place is a traditional classic breakfast place. The food is good service is good. Plenty of parking. You can sit outside in the patio area. Definitely I would come again.

Breakfast one day was quite good with attentive service, but a few days later attempting to order take away was very disappointing.

I was told by text when to arrive and pickup my food, and sat around for over an hour with only a feeble and frankly unbelievable excuse to pass the time.

Wasnt offered so much as a glass of water while I waited inside and my wife outside.

Went for breakfast with a friend. Had not been to this location. Very nice outdoor seating, service was fantastic, the food was served hot, fresh and very tasty. I had the Athens omelette with fruit. It was really good. My friend had a quinoa bowl and she loved it. A great visit overall.

Food was less than okay. Ordered a Greek omelette, not particularly hot when it arrived, potatoes they came with it were cold. Haven't been here in a couple of years and it's now terribly overpriced, at a cost of $18 for an omelette which was small and cold. The omelette included toast (also cold). I expected two slices of bread, which I normally get from most restaurants with egg dishes. They gave me one slice, cut in half, from a very small slice. The omelette was made with three eggs. The only thing they added was a small amount of feta cheese, and some onions. Easy way to figure out the costs and how many You could make it home for $18.2 dozen eggs cost approximately $9
6 oz of feta cheese is about $5
Two onions cost $1
1 loaf of average white bread is $3

These are simple retail costs whereas a restaurant buys in bulk for a lot less
For an understanding of the product, none of the prices I listed is for organic, and neither was what Jinkys served.

For $18, you can make eight omelettes of which 6 have feta, and all have the onions, and 2 slices of bread.

Besides the cost of $18, the owner added a $3 surcharge, supposedly for employee health. Not bad for the employee but at those costs, he should be able to cover on his own.

Too bad, this place was great 3 or 4 years ago. Not going back.

If you live in this neighbourhood I would recommend this place. I been there couple times for breakfast with hubby. Nice place to spend time and I would recommend to try their onion rings they are the best

Some of the worst service I have ever experienced and the place was practically empty. I worked as a server in restaurants for almost 20 years so I have an idea what I'm talking about. I walked into the restaurant to get change because no one was coming out and 3 servers were standing there talking amongst themselves. I expect more after spending $50 on breakfast for 2.

I went there with a couple of friends to celebrate a birthday. Sat at the patio. Ramon helped us out; he was super friendly. Great food and drinks. Overall experience good.

Run down place, employees are slow paced and not too friendly. Food is unhealthy greasy. The only positive is that they have full bar but the drinks mixer is questionable.

It's mediocre, I go because my friend likes it. However, the ingredients aren't healthy. High fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated oil.

Great food, clean and decently priced. The kids wanted to eat pancakes, so my local fam suggested this place. A latino flare in many of the dishes. I sampled the chilaquiles my daughter ordered and they were delicious. My two other kiddos had pancakes, which were amazing. I had the roasted quinoa bowl with veggies and a fried egg. My only complaint with that dish is it should have had two fried eggs, instead of one. Other than that, also delicious.
Not too much parking, but for a late Monday morning we had no issues finding a spot. And then of course, being in CA, you need masks and proof of vax.
Would come back, next time we visit in this area.

Fresh salads. Yummy sandwiches. We had quinoa with salmon, Caprese sandwich and Italian salad. Fruit plate too. Very fresh and flavorful.

Everyone got their food way before I did. I only ordered pancakes. When I did get my pancakes ~15 min later they were good though.

I felt extremely discriminated and disappointed on how they treat people here like if they don’t like being there. My server Eduardo was extremely rude. The hostess in the other hand was ok. Just don’t think we should of got our drinks 20 mins after being seated and with an attitude. This other server Christina than came to picked up his slack. Still with a harsh attitude, our food served cold as it was sitting there for a while, hoping for better times at Jinkys
