Run away! Place is bare bones… Overpriced and can’t make a simple burger.. even with 30 minutes of waiting! Got a burger that was burnt to carbon outside with rare spots inside served with rotten lettuce and green tomatoes. Customer service is non-existent.. they promptly took the bad food with my comments then proceeded with the bill.. I pointed out the burnt and rare burger but they simply wanted the bill paid and started swearing in Spanish. The waiter said they were not responsible and didn’t have a manager to speak with.. I specifically pointed out that a customer doesn’t pay for something they did get (a properly cooked meal) – they refused to let it go and wanted it paid. Over 7 customers were waiting for food as well.. so avoid the hassle – they can’t make a decent meal!

We picked the wrong day to visit for lunch. We visited on Mother’s Day. Many people made reservations, we did not. There is seating outside as well as inside, but was too windy for us. We got a table inside after a short wait and after a 30 minute wait, gave our order. We waited an hour for our burgers. They did bring drinks and refills often. The food was good, fries were pretty but soggy. The onion ring batter was tasty but cooked so long the onion was disintegrated. Burger had good flavor. I will try the restaurant again when it’s not a major holiday.

Came here for lunch after wine tasting in the afternoon. My girlfriend had been here before (don’t mix it up with the other “Cafe” a few doors down) and raved about the delicious food.

Great lunch spot we stopped at in-between visiting the wineries nearby! Good service, nice patio area. We waited to stop here for lunch until mid-afternoon on the Sunday we visited because it looked very busy when we first drove by during the lunch hour. Glad we waited so that we didn’t feel rushed to leave. Would love to stop here again the next time we visit.

First time trying The Cafe. Have to say I was disappointed. We got the apple turkey sandwich and the burger of the week. Turkey sandwich was great and we loved the combo of pesto and apple on it. Burger was super disappointing. Ordered it medium rare and it came out almost raw in the center. Sent it back and they brought me back the same patty which I assume they microwaved as the center was boiling hot and half of the meat was well done. To top it all off, it didnt taste like the patty was seasoned. Sides were good and the wait staff was super nice. Don’t think I’ll be going back.

Absolute best tasting beef I ever tasted. I’m super picky about my hamburgers, but this beef was so good. Plus the pickled tomatoes were delicious. Sweet potatoes fries seemed fresh made. Excellent taste combos.

This place was Great! Only problem was the kids chicken tenders, they were not! No kids menu, offered chicken and grilled cheese. Chicken tough and grizzly, boys didn’t eat it.

Love this place. Always so good. They forgot to update online menu and no longer have the three cheese sandwich. They called me and let me know and we made a substitute. They are awesome! I am bummed that they changed their onion rings! They used to be fresh and like beer battered or something. Now they seem like the frozen ones you buy at the store. Still good, but their onion rings are the main reason I go. Because of this, I probably won’t go often anymore. They are still a recommended place to eat though! Thank you!

The jalapeno bacon cheeseburger is hot!!!the chipotle burger definitely has some kick to it also. I really like how the sweet potato fries are the same size as regular fries (instead of smaller and thinner at other many other places). It really improves the burger eating experience.

Stopped here on a day trip from Tucson & ordered the Reuben sandwich, which turned out to be one of the best I have ever had. The place was a bit crowded & our order did take awhile to arrive, but this was more than compensated for by the outstanding service & breathtaking patio views of beautiful Sonoita. We will definitely be back, & the green chile or chipotle burger are next on my list. If you happen to pass through Sonoita & are looking for delicious food & friendly service, don’t pass up this little gem!
