This is a hidden gem in Syracuse. A small unassuming building holding some of the best breakfast you can get, and the quantity for the money is outstanding. Known for the "Whole Fritata ", you better bring your appetite. Adam Richman from TV's Food Network came here for the whole Fritata challenge. Food is cooked to order right in front of you. Great staff & accommodating.. It is CASH only, however it is worth every penny.

Get the Cuse Macmother. It's a bacon, egg and cheese on French toast covered in powdered sugar and maple syrup. Best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. Combines my love of French toast and savory breakfasts. It's a small hole in the wall spot, so be prepared to wait for a sit or order takeout.

First - cash only, bank with inside ATM practically across street. Second but should be first- Delicious!!!! It is a must visit! My Biscuits and sausage gravy and home fries with onion = Delicious. If you’re a sandwich person, the MacMother is the best sausage egg cheese on bun I’ve ever tasted. Prices are reasonable, total was $20.75 not including tip. I was greeted upon entry and politely helped. Seating is very very limited inside. We ate outside because we had the dog but there are trees at edge of parking lot for some shade. I felt safe here and will definitely come back next time in town. Spouse has been coming here for 20 years and it’s always been good and delicious.

Very Chill Atmosphere! Everyone is welcoming and the waiters are friendly. They'll make small talk and share a compliment. You don't feel like an outsider here. Feels like family!

Absolutely amazing! This best breakfast spot I’ve been to! Great service and what seems like a staple of the community! Classic diner vibe with portions the size of your head!
