Cafe Genovese

Wanna feel like you're back home in the NY come here. This is a real old fashioned breakfast place with the friendliest staff. The walls are adorned with Yankee, Giants and first responder pictures . Whenever we walk in we get treated like old friends. You want hash ? You want fried eggs? You can get it here & even more. They serve a great breakfast but also salads & lunch. This is a no frills get it like you want it place. They have a busy counter where the owner cook interacts with local folks about all that's going on in this busy & growing area. Great hot coffee with free refills too. Welcome home!

My parents asked me over Christmas break if I wanted to meet them for breakfast, so since I've never been here, I decided to take the leap.My son, niece, and myself met my parents here for breakfast. It's located in a stripmall on 210. Beware, this whole stripmall has a pretty tight (or at least for me) parking lot, so backing out, can be a bit tight. Also, if you're coming from the Beachwalk area, making a right into this plaza (especially in the morning and around the time the high school is starting can take a bit).Once we parked we entered Cafe Genovese. It reminded me of the little mom and pop diners we had in upstate New York. You def get the small town feel, and based on my observations, they had many regulars.Our server quickly came to our table, handed us menus, and asked us for our drink orders. She was chipper and happy to help. I ordered a pretty standard breakfast: scrambled eggs, toast, home fries, and a coffee. My kiddo got scrambled eggs, toast, and a side of bacon, and my niece ordered one pancake. Our drinks were quickly refilled. The other server was quick to see if we needed napkins, both servers were on top of customer needs.Our breakfasts came out quickly. Every tasted good. It's pretty nofrills, but that shouldn't deter you from coming here.If you're looking for reasonable prices, quick and friendly service, this is the place.

We just stopped in around 11 on a Saturday. The place was completely full, so we had to eat at the counter as those were the only two open seats. Most of the diners were having breakfast, and everything looked good with large portions. We opted for lunch instead and had the phillychicken cheese steak and a burger. Both sandwiches were good. They were accompanied by onion rings, which were average. If we come back in the future, we will probably try the breakfast options

Family Owned- good eats NY style inside with lots of seats & a few outside great food awesome staff

While traveling through the area, my wife and I stumbled across this little gem. The worst thing I can say is they are hidden in a small, out of the way little plaza. They should be in a much more prominent location so more people can discover this gem. Food was great, prices were good and staff was helpful and friendly.

What a wonderful little spot! My husband and I were looking for someplace that opened early in the area to have breakfast before a doctor's appt. We stumbled upon this place and it did not disappoint. The prices were low considering the economy we are in and the portions were perfect. I ordered the grit bowl which was huge and I definitely could not finish it. It was delicious. My husband got the steak and eggs which came with potatoes and bread. Everything was seasoned well. The service was friendly and welcoming. We cannot wait to go back!

My husband found this location online. We have added it to our favorites list. You never know what you find when you have a weekend off.

Completely exposed kitchen across from the bar seating. Initially thought it added character to the place but it just added to the noise level. It also provided a view of the cooking that made me a bit uneasy about the level of cleanliness. Wife's omelette had an egg shell in it and my breakfast sirloin appeared more boiled than seared. (It was definitely cooked on the flat top as I got to watch the whole time, but not properly dried before cooking).Service was friendly and there were plenty of opportunities to refill coffee. Towards the end of the meal it was difficult to get anyone to make eye contact long enough to pay the final bill.

What a great place. The food is fantastic and the people there are even better!We have had the burgers, cheesesteaks, sausage & peppers sub, western style omelet, ham & cheese omelet- ham is nice chunks, the eggs pancakes bacon... breakfast, tater tots, salads.Everything is great quality.Wonderful family place.Everyone should be coming here to eat.Great job Mario, Deb, & Team!!!
