We love coming here after Reality church! Best tuna melt in Omaha!!!!! Thank you so much
I've been coming here since I was young and have now grown to appreciate places like this. The food is consistent, staff are kind, and as a whole I always leave happy. My favorite item is the Garden City potato casserole, and I get it every since time. The people I go with generally get a different potato casserole and enjoy theirs too. The portion is big and you get a muffin! Summer Kitchen always seems to be busy on the weekends, which is great for them!!! I like to go at lunch during the week when there are slightly less people.
My Bestie Coworker and I went and grabbed lunch(Carry-Out), OMG I was so impressed by the staff, sweet, helpful and kind, the food!!! I ordered was the chicken fried steak dinner and it did not disappoint!! The steak was huge, potatoes and corn and gravy was just what I needed on a cold Omaha Day, and the best part, I have leftovers!! My Bestie got the Open-Faced hot Turkey Sandwich, again HUGE portions!! and she loved it! we also grabbed a cinnamon roll and WOW, soft, fresh and the icing not overly sweet!. We will be coming back again real soon. Loved everything. Ya'll Keep up the good work!! Sorry, we did not get any pictures, but next time, I promise to do just that!
Summer Kitchen Cafe is my go to breakfast place in La Vista! I’ve only done pickup orders, but every experience has been fantastic. The Denver omelet is my go to…always hot and fresh! Their muffins and bagels are consistently fresh and delicious, and the fruit smoothies are a must try. Prices are reasonable for the quality you get, and I really appreciate the convenience of their drive-thru. On top of that, the customer service is always great. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to!
Great food and service! Portions were HUGE which was good because we were hungry. We don’t get here as often since we moved but it was a good as we remembered! Our server Kevin was friendly and attentive and helped my husband pick out the best option for what he wanted for breakfast.
