Temptations Cafe

Really nice (broad selection) menuPortion sizes are generous Service was friendly and quickPrices reasonable Definitely coming back!!

Had lunch with two of my best buddies today at Temptations Cafe, our second visit this month. One of my buddies chose the Ruben with coleslaw which he enjoyed very much.The other two of us each selected the club with fries (see pic). The over stuffed sandwich was cut into 4 triangles with a mountain of fresh, hot, thick cut fries. The sandwich and fries were absolutely top notch!We also spoke to Reggie, the owner who was very interesting to talk to. He showed us several pics on his phone of several current MLB players who were in town for Spring Training and had stopped in for a meal, which was cool!Reggie's from Chicago and his place has a large variety of Chicago Bears, Bulls, Cubs and White Sox memorabilia up on the walls which was neat to look at.If you want tasty, classic American fare, in a cool environment, Temptations is the place for you!

Had not been here in a few years. The menu has changed a bit but everything we ordered was good. The portions were very generous. I had the avocado scramble and had to bring half home. The mango cheesecake was airy and light and delicious. It is a small locally owned cafe with a definite Filipino influence. Support local.

Pleasantly surprised at this diner. We chose this location not only because it was close to our hotel but they serve country fried steak and corn beef hash. Let me tell ya, both did not disappoint. Both came out just slightly crispy on the outside and the portion sizes were perfect. Their home style potatoes were also just slightly crispy too. We had a large group and they were able to sort the tables inside to fit our party of 10. I would say maybe the inside could fit 30 which includes the counter seating. They also have an outdoor patio. We ordered some drinks but they recommended us the Coffee Jelly. Think of a Boba drink but with iced coffee and coffee like jelly. To pair with that, they make these Silvanas, a cashew meringue cookie with buttercream in the middle. It was delicious. Reggie, the owner was classically trained in Europe and all of his desserts was made in house. Let me tell ya, he was super friendly and we chatted a bit. I was given a slice of his pumpkin cheesecake. OM Gee , so good and so light! There is a UBE flan on the menu for pre-order. I would've totally gotten that if I was staying the week! So to sum, excellent service and wonderful desserts with classic diner food made perfectly. They have a outside patio seating as well and parking is on the shared lot. Will be back when I'm in town again!

We enjoyed ourselves here. Very welcoming and friendly. The food was yummy! The silvanas dessert was delicious!

We got to try this restaurant today and loved the pork chops for breakfast and our favorite Filipino dessert, Silvanas. It is an American restaurant owned by a Filipino chef who has worked for the best restaurants in France, Italy, and the Middle East.

This hidden cafe is a true gem. An American cafe with Euro Asian influence. The food is incredible, it's like fine dining restaurant quality of food with a tiny cafe feel and pricing. This is one of those restaurants that you have to love. Mom and pops shop but outstanding food and even better people! The first ever SYLVANA I've experienced and wow it was life changing. It's now a necessity! The chicken a la pobre was magical and the scotch eggs... I can't even explain it was so good.

Food was delicious! We came on the Filipino breakfast morning so it was pretty busy. There was a bit of a wait, but they were extremely accommodating and gave us free dessert to make up for it. Very yummy and very classic American cafe feel and George Costanza in the women's bathroom! One of our forks was visibly dirty though.

This place is so welcoming. The owners are amazing individuals. We don't come here as often as we'd like because we live so far, but when we do make the journey, Temptations Cafe never disappoints! From the decor, to the ambiance, the food, and the conversation. Their desserts are my favorite! All baked in-house from scratch and super fresh! My favorites from here are the carrot and ginger soup, ube flan, and the tuna melt. Also, the chai latte and iced pecan latte are EPIC.This place makes you feel at home. 5 stars, well deserved!Note: This is a small diner. If you plan to sit in here for long with just coffee, it's probably wise to be mindful of the establishment and not take up seats for those that are dining in. Just food for thought. ‍

My husband and I were visiting Scottsdale for the weekend and found this charming little cafe within a 20 minute walk from our hotel. It is so clean and the service was great, and everything was delicious! We were so impressed we ate breakfast there three mornings in a row--a 40 minute roundtrip walking from our hotel. I ordered the Fit breakfast with an egg white scrambled with spinach and mushrooms, turkey bacon, and a fruit cup. Every detail was perfectly executed. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the bacon was perfect, and every piece of fresh fruit was flawless and delicious. My husband is EXTRAORDINARILY picky about his eggs--he ordered the avocado scramble and again, cooked to perfection. We didn't try any of the amazing looking pastries, but they were a sight! We both highly recommend this place. It is family owned and operated and you can tell everything is done with great care. Five stars!!
