We first about this place when it first arrived here in the area. Fantastic in all ways - for the variety of the food from entrees, to salads etc to desserts , the excellent quality of the food and much more. The breaded calamari is devine and spedeni is very good. There is so much to choose from. You can just focus on some entrees and a salad or do the whole variety of foods as a tapas bar as I do. On weekends and Friday they have creeped which can be filled with your choice of fruit fillings, whipped cream, and whatever you please from the selection. There are salads, soups , pizza, spaghetti, meatballs and much more . Some of my friends think the quality fo Italian stuff is just okay but I feel it is excellent for the price and quality. I frankly don't understand how you can go to any other Italian price. When we go Italian that is where we come . I 've taken groups , my wife and our kids and they all love. And remeber even though it is buffet the quality is always excellent and consistent from all the times we have come. It can get a little noisey but the service is very good. If you have not tries it, you need to

We had a WONDERFUL breakfast--good diner food and coffee, atmosphere out the ying-yang, friendly service. Don't miss the big-as-your-head cinnamon rolls made by Big Mama's Bakery--pure heaven.

I forgot to mention in my previous review that they do take credit cards now too. So even though it's an old fashion cafe enviornment they can service non-cash carrying customers.

I work in the Grandview area, and TJ's has become one of my favorite lunch spots. Breakfast and soup are two of my favorite foods, which just happens to be two things that TJ's specializes in. The thing I want to mention here is their soups. Plain and simple they have a soup artist working for them. Their soup ranges from vegatable beef, potatoe, beef barely and they are even better with a grill cheese on the side. But let me tell you folks, their soup is almost the best I've ever had. It's just the right consistency, with fresh ingredients, and seasoned just right. It is seriously delicious. But that's not all this place does good, they smoke briscuit, make a mean breakfast any time of day, and have an assortment of pies for dessert. Hands down my compliments to the chef, and the rest of the staff who care and so much and give such a wonderful gift of their talent to the world!
Thanks,
Scott

You were at the Corner Restaurant in Westport, not the Corner Cafe in Riverside.
There is no affiliation.

Ate here during the brunch on Sunday when we met long time friends. Should have been more Italian stuff. Nothing really great stood out in my mind. Atmosphere is very nice but I can't eat atmosphere. Salads, pasta , deserts all ok nothing outstanding. For the price I will go to Cinzetti's in OP.

Hands down great soul food . Superb fried chicken and brisket which you can't beat. The vegetables ,sides and everything else were fantastic too. Everything is well prepared and tastes fresh. Flavorful. It is packed during a Sunday brunch so the best time is another time possibly. Great food.

this was the worst breakfast in a nice atmospere that I have ever had, the eggs were overcooked, sausage burnt, the gravy was left over from when the concrete work was done on the renovation.
The food had no taste the orange juice was rank and the milk warm.
Let someone take this place over that at least tastes the food they cook!!!!!!!!!!!

What up with the corner lately??? Mi amiga and I went last week. I ordered some egg and lox thing. Ummm...we're out of lox. My amiga ordered banana pancakes. Ummm...we're out of bananas.
Okay...you tell us what you have and we'll tell you what we want. Isn't this a menu???
Anyway...new ownership? I don't know what's going on but it's not the same as it used to be. Of course, I'm not 24 anymore either.

Great place to grab breakfast or lunch. Good food, reasonable prices. $4.99 specials daily on the chalkboards. Can get so busy the servers are a little slow to refill coffee or soda, though. Friendly folks, with all the hustle and bustle of a deservedly popular place. Eat there. You'll like it.

Delicious scrambles, omelettes, pancakes, french toast, biscuits (they are big and flaky and mmmm) and gravy for breakfast. Blueplate specials for lunch, such as open-faced roast beef and mashed potatoes, terrific ruebens and burgers. Only drawback to the restauruant is they don't serve dinner. Food is consistently good. Smoke free since it opened? Or at least since I've known it which is 7 years. Having moved here from San Francisco... it's nice to find an independant restaurant like this in the burbs. It's surrounded by chains. Oh, and they contribute to upromise.com, too. I'm financing my kids' college education via Big Biscuit.

Re: “Chubby's on Broadway”
It was exactly what I expected. Typical diner food. The service was great, especially since we went right when the restaurant was starting to pick up for the day but the food wasn't really any different than any other diner food I'd had and it's kind of out of the way for me.
