This restaurant seems to be hidden in the Hotel Circle area. It has a sign outside advertising its breakfast specials. I tried them out and loved it. I really enjoyed the flavored creamers for my coffee. It appears that everything is made from scratch. The service is great, very attentive and they appear to love their job. More

I ate all my breakfasts here. The food was reasonable and fast. The waitresses were cheerful and pleasant. It's associated with a nearby hotel, so I saw you could put it on your bill More

It's clean, the staff is very pleasant (actually the service was perfectly decent), and the food basic mediocrity at best. It's a way to fill your stomach inexpensively. More

This restaurant is somewhat better than the average rating I gave it, but didn't make it up to very good, and so I decided on the more conservative rating. My wife and I ate here three times on a recent stay at a nearby inn on Hotel Circle, and came away satisfied. The atmosphere is definitely '50s greasy spoon, though... More

The service is great with good food. It's not the most glamorous breakfast place in the world but it does the job. I nice little diner. More

Just an average greasy spoon coffee shop. It needs a thorough cleaning. Heavy on the grease and butter. Like a Denny's but not as good. More

Food was acceptable, but nothing special. I had a Mexican meal which was good, and a Belgian waffle that was a little sub-standard. More

My car broke down, luckily right in front of Hotel Circle South, and I found myself at a hotel for a few days while my car was being serviced. I decided to try the Valley Kitchen Restaurant since it was within walking distance. I took my order to go the first night and everything was packed up nicely with all... More

This restaurant is linked to the front of the Mission Valley hotel. The food is good. The price seems a little steep, but I guess you pay for convenience. More
