This place has been around a long time & is a locale fav. It's not fancy, but has good food, especially the coleslaw & fruit pies! I understand the original owner recently passed & some recent reviews have mixed opinions, but totally worth making up your own mind, especially if you're nostalgic for your Grandma's kitchen! 2633 El Cajon Blvd, San Diego, CA 92104 M-F 10am-8pm Sat-Sun 8am-10pm
