Annie's Soup Kitchen

Plain Coffee was heads and shoulders above flying star. Food tasty. The wait staff are life long servers, responsive, not hipstery types who wouldn't lift a finger to clean. And Clean it is!! The decor is Unchanged since 1992, at least!! They had the Gonzo in 1992, when Judy and George owned it. They still have the Gonzo, and it's good! In a world full of B.S., ASK has stood the test of time. I am very impressed:) I think they could change the decor, but keep the food, etc. exactly the same.

The food was subpar for the price. The eggs were somehow simultaneously under and over cooked, the potatoes were mostly undercooked with burnt bottoms, and the bacon was stinky, tough, and overcooked. The chiles were watered down and pretty bland.

The atmosphere was nice tho, definitely had a more "homey" feel to it. Service was friendly, prompt, and professional. Unfortunately the quality of the food doesn't warrant a second visit.

Ordered the avocado bacon omelet and the Quiche Lorraine. The house made bread was dense and tasty, reminded me of my mom’s homemade bread :) the zucchini bread was wonderful as well. Loved the atmosphere and staff were all very friendly and patient.

Great experience....the AVOCADO & BACON OMELET was yummy. Got the house made bread toasted & served with homemade jam. Our table shared BLACKBERRY CREPES....oh my...good thing I don't live nearby or I'd be snarfing those down on a regular basis.

We are definitely fans of this little gem. We weren't quite certain what to expect from the name and the very humble and hidden entrance. What we found just the other side of the doors was a charmingly old-fashioned restaurant space complete with pink tablecloths, floral carpets, and lovingly hand-painted art on the walls. It was such a homey space that in all honesty, the dining room reminded me less of being in a restaurant and more of suppers at the homes of my aunts or grandmothers when I was little. The atmosphere of homeyness was continued by the lovely server who used endearments like "sweetie" and "hon" rather than the colder and more formal "ma'am" or "sir" that I've become used to in dining.

I'm not sure how we managed it, but Raz had The Gonzo, I had French Onion Soup, and we split a half-order of Blackberry Crepes for dessert. It was a pretty awesome brunch, but the definite star of the meal was dessert. The blackberry compote was sweet and tart and bursting with flavor, while the sweetened cream cheese inside was just plain decadent. We would love to come back and try more of the menu, though that can be difficult for a dedicated night-owl like me since it's on the other side of town and closes by 2 pm.
