10Best Says

If you plan to have weekend brunch at Ria's, plan to come early, because crowds quickly gather, and the tiny place takes some time to turn over. It is worth the wait as the homemade food is to die for. Breakfast served all day is the real attraction, whether you choose the omelet of the day, banana pancakes, huevos rancheros, or even the unusual but delicious brisket breakfast. An array of vegetarian and vegan options are available, should any guest require that. Expect to see a variety from hipsters to churchgoers. At lunch, find gourmet sandwiches, soups, salads, and a few hot entrees, including the brisket white cheddar quesadilla, Reuben Two Ways and Veggie Philly.
