I have been a regular customer here since we moved to Marana back in 2015. It's funny how, as a regular, we didn't even think to write a review! I am here to let you know that The Crying Onion Cafe is my favorite restaurant. I get the same meal every time I come in: the chicken feta wrap with onion rings on the side. Every meal I have ever ordered has come out spectacular. I think they may have had the same cook since we started going there, and whoever he or she is, they are INCREDIBLE. I have yet to meet them, but I need to tell them how great they really are. In fact, he deserves $20 tips from everybody all the time. Lol Next are my favorite waiters/waitresses. I'll have to get their names, too, but I have not had any bad experiences. There is a young man and a young woman who always take care of us. They are so attentive that they already know what I need before I even ask it. The atmosphere is relaxing and homey, whether it's packed full of people or not! We always come on the weekends. Thanks for ALWAYS being awesome!

Last time I visited, they were experiencing an electrical problem and it was closed. The two previous times I visited the service was good and fast. The food was very good and not pricey. For two people.

Enjoyed our first visit to the Crying Onion! The atmosphere was “homey” and the service attentive. We both had the meat lover’s omelette and they were excellent. Meat chopped up in smaller pieces so that you get a bit of each meat in every bite. We were there on a week day and so got a table quickly and we weren’t hurriedly chased out after we finished.

The crying onion café is a good little local place… Independent, not a chain real people serving real food our waitress Kit was wonderful and the food was tasty, hot and delivered quick. Good coffee too strong not bitter. I got chicken fried steak with potatoes and eggs, and Courtland got an omelette with bacon. both are very well prepared, although I would say there was an excess amount of gravy on my chicken fried steak… Did I just say too much gravy? Is that even possible? If you order something without bacon, you can order literally one piece of bacon they sell you one they sell you three those your choices but it’s great because the bacon is excellent. kit did not tell me they were specials they looked really good. I would’ve gotten one of them but I was not overall disappointed because my meal was very well done! The restaurant is not large, and the tables filled fairly quickly. But parking is plentiful because it is located in the mall area.
