My family and I went there for breakfast yesterday and all the food was delicious. My mom and brother ordered the American breakfast, and shared a bit of there homefries, peppered bacon and pancakes with me. The homefries where savory, and bacon was thick flavorful and crunchy. The pancakes were fluffy and tasty. I ordered the Chilaquiles, they were delicious, the only thing is a wish they had just a bit more sauce, and some sour cream, and queso fresco on top would have made it that much better. Regardless, it was delicious, had good rice and beans alongside and they flavorful. Will totally be back.
The food was amazing as were the owners!!!! The chef...yes chef because he was much more than a cook even talked to us after we ate about different menu items!!!! Amazing little S Phoenix hidden gem�
I went there tonight and it is a hidden gem! I'm going for sure to taste other things on the menu. Tonight I had the BLT sandwich with a side of greenery that I believe had a fruit-based vinaigrette. Both sandwich and salad was good! My fiancee had the chicken burrito which was huge and he loved it but I think he really wanted to get to the order of huge hot wings they offered. We also had elote corn which was really good as well. I've looked around in Phoenix for elote corn and couldn't find anything close till today at this cafe. I can tell they thought out their menu with flavor and everything tasted so fresh. Also the prices here are really good. I will be back and thank you for your hospitality.
This place just opened and it's family owned so keep that in mind when you go- all in a good way.
Family run meaning they still care.
They aren't a corporation owned business so they actually care about your experience there. If something isn't right they don't have to call other people to fix it.
The staff is super friendly and they actually ask for criticism and comments.
The food is amazing and served with elegance.
They cook their food like you are their family. They aren't just going to slap it on a plate. You are their guest and they serve their food to you as such.
The sausage gravy is the best sausage gravy you will find! Made fresh every morning and it shows! No gummy taste.
I'm local to the area and can tell you that you can't find good food especially breakfast this good for MILES.
In conclusion:
Easy to find✔
Big parking lot✔
Friendly service✔
Family owned✔
Great food✔
My experience here at South Mountain Cafe was Amazing!! I got the biscuit n gravy breakfast, I have to say it was such a great choice. Biscuits soft, gravy hot n fresh the sausage in the gravy cooked all the way. The taste was perfect! My eggs were cooked to perfection, absolute perfect. My all around experience was pleasant an wonderful.
I will be returning.
Truly surprised at the delicious food at this unassuming little spot. Everything was fresh and delicious. A group of us went trying three different menu items. The breakfast burrito weighed in at over a good pound for less than $6.00 full of eggs, potatoes, bacon, cheese and country gravy. The Southern breakfast plate ($8.25)was a traditional breakfast plate with eggs prepared as requested, roasted potatoes (amazing flavor) crispy bacon (nice, thick and crunchy) the most amazing fluffy toast, delicious homemade strawberry jam and a side of true country gravy. The biscuits and gravy ($7.50) came with choice of eggs, three biscuits and a generous helping of homemade gravy. The coffee was brewed fresh and extremely hot (careful!!) and the OJ tasted fresh and sweet. Looking forward to going back and trying additional dishes. Their service was courteous and efficient.
We had the Steak Burrito and the Gravy Fries. All I can say is...Wow! Instantly one of my new favorite spots. Can't wait to come back for the South Mountain Breakfast and the Chicken Burrito. The South Side needs this place. Please support this great family owned cafe.
I tried this new place with one of my daughter's and my grandson. Food and service was great. Big portions. Just remember that it's new and they are continually upgrading. They have an order at the counter and pay first system. Kind of like a fast food restaurant, but it's not a fast food place. The waitress brings you your food and checks on you throughout your meal. I asked the lady for her copy of the receipt so I could put a tip on it (I didn't have cash) the service was deserving of a tip.
Not bad for a place that just opened few months ago. The food is really tasty. Could help if the menu had pictures that way i kinda know what to order. Nice quiet classy music good service good food very affordable to feed a whole family.. i really hope they stick around. Im all about supporting family business like this one
Our son and daughter-in-law introduced us to this wonderful restaurant. Had the fish tacos the first time, so good we had them the second time. We'll be back to branch out to everything else. I'm already planning a breakfast visit :-)
Local businesses like this ROCK! Yes, the food is delicious and reasonably priced, and it's very relaxed and inclusive. They have drawings that the owners young child hangs on the walls, and it is so precious and reminds you of why you should be supporting businesses just like this!
Really good food and they really try to accommodate you with any dietary or health wise choices to make your dish as you like it. Also they are very nice to support the teachers on teachers appreciation week. PCA Middle School loves ya!
