I just ate a very delicious lunch here at Toni’s. The service was prompt and friendly. I ordered the Five Star Grilled Cheese sandwich that has cheddar, Jack, Swiss, Provolone, and Pepper Jack Cheese! It comes with fries. I also ordered a bowl of Cream of Green Chili soup which I highly recommend. For my drink I had a strawberry Italian soda.

The waitress was very sweet and had the best attitude. The chicken artichoke sandwhich was amazing along with the fries and ranch.

Had the nicest visit today. Got the best spot in the house... Outside next to the waterfall. Food was great, service was amazing. Love us some Tonis!

Great place to go. I had the grilled cheese (half sandwich) and tomato soup. The soup was delicious and the the bread on the grilled cheese was great. I rated 4 stars because my friends sweet potato fries were cold. Besides that, great service and atmosphere.

Based on my first time here it was great. We reserved a table and ordered ahead. Food was great and customer service was wonderful. I definitely will go back.

I've been going to this place for years, and is definitely a hidden gem in this small town of Merced! The customer service is always on point, drinks are never low, and the quality of food matches their pricing. Doesn't matter if it's breakfast or lunch, this place doesn't miss the mark. All of their food is freshly made, and the biscuits are to die for. Their gravy is REAL country gravy with chunks of sausage, and you can't get that at many places anymore. I've never had a bad experience here, and that's why I continue to go back. If you're a breakfast or brunch person, this place is for you.

Super quick service, delicious sandwiches and in such a tucked away little corner too! Wish I would have gotten the whole Mediterranean chicken sandwich instead of a half, the chicken was so flavorful. Great choice for a "just passing through" lunch. Plus on Wednesdays you get a free dessert! It was our destiny.

The food was hot and fresh. The place is well kept with a cozy feel to it. However, really wish other meat options (i.e. Turkey bacon or sausage.) The portions is small for the price. The service was nice and they kept up with check ins. The price is a little on the high side for the portions size. Other than that all in all I would return just to try the lunch menu and other items they have to offer... Please like if this helped you.

My family and I enjoyed a weekend brunch here when we came to Merced to helped my niece return to college and helping her moving in to her dorm. I had the chorizo special, pumpkin bread, and sweet tea. I wish I had ordered the blueberry lemonade, as that was homemade and fresh squeezed! I got dispenser sweet tea, not homemade. The fresh, homemade pumpkin bread was very moist and yummy! I did not love their chorizo dish. It was all potatoes. There was hardly any chorizo on the plate! I literally had to dig and look for any chorizo remnants under the pile of potatoes and feta. It was literally a plate of breakfast potatoes and feta cheese, with a side of avocado. The special came with eggs, but I do not eat eggs (allergic) so requested a substitution of spinach. I appreciate that the staff was willing to make the substitution. It was the complete lack of chorizo, what should have been the main ingredient in the dish, that made this dish such a disappointment. The customer service was unremarkable; nothing extraordinary or subpar. The patio seating was nice, minus the occasional mosquito that came to bug us. I don’t think I would patronize Toni’s again, but would try another breakfast/brunch spot.

Country fried steak had more batter than chicken and over easy eggs were too undercooked. California omelette was ok. Great service but disappointing food.

I've been to this cafe a few times. I have mixed feelings about Toni's Cafe. I think the food is decent but I'm not thrilled about the struggle to get a seat. The first time I went in to eat, the hostess automatically started taking my order for take away when I wanted to be seated. It wasn't a big deal, especially because she and the other waitress were very attentive. I drink a lot of water and can say that my cup never ran dry. I ordered the brekfast burrito with veggies. It was a decent burrito, but the veggies lacked salt or spices. They also had limited hot sauce options. I did like the cheese frico seal on the burrito. The second and third time I went in, I was attended to by the same lady. Again, excellent service. The sandwiches that I had were alright. The chicken was a little dry on the Italian Chicken Melt and I expected turkey meat and not turkey ham on the Turkey Avocado Melt but the sandwich breads were good. The potato salad was delicious. As a sidenote, she suggested the churro cheescake and it was as delicious as it sounds. In fact, I came the next day for brunch again. Of the desserts I tried when I went in, the churro cheesecake was one that stood out for the flavor and I wanted to eat it again the next day. Unfortunately, the same person was not working. Instead, a woman with bright pink hair was at the register. She definetely had her hands full with all the people in line. Apparently their wifi doesen't extend to the patio so people would have to come inside to pay (they may benefit from a  wifi mesh or extender . . . ). Again, not an issue there for me. It may be for diners paying with cards. What did ruffle my feathers was that she greeted me when I first stepped inside and said "I'll be right with you." She finished up the line of people trying to pay and then addressed two ladies that came after me. When the kind ladies asked if anyone else was there first, she said no. The two ladies assured her that I was there first and it was only then that I was seated. Again, nothing against the waitresses because they have always been great. It's just that I have to struggle to get seated as a lone diner. The food is decent but I went back because I looked forward to trying their pastries. This encounter soured my visit though and there's enough places elsewhere that I don't think I'll be coming back here again. Tl;dr: Food is good. I recommend the churro cheesecake over other pastries. Don't expect to be seated if you're a lone diner.

I was excited to try this restaurant I love breakfast so it seemed like a great idea, when I came in I wait in the entrance since it clearly says “wait to be seat”. However, after waiting and even tho some waitresses saw us we didn’t got a table. 2 customer arrived and they got seat right away, after they got seat we didn’t, until I asked someone to give us a table. During our time we had 3 different waitresses, and some others just gave us dirty looks. I order cranberry juice and it was $6 but it was a super small cup really overpriced The food was good but the service was really bad, I certainly won’t come back. I spent around $60 for 2 person’s breakfast

I’m not one to write reviews but this experience was horrible. Got sat down in corner and was not offered anything. Tried to get a waiter’s attention and was ignored. I noticed other tables in our section were also struggling to get a waiter’s attention. At one point, a lady from another table had to run down a waitress to get napkins. Fifteen min passed and a white man was sat next to us and he was immediately offered something to drink. This was the final straw we got up and left. I understood it was busy but completely ignoring one side of the restaurant after clearly looking at people waving you down is ridiculous.

Food was not what we expected, I had the meat eater omelette which was 80% sausage 👎10%bacon 10% ham in the egg, the hash browns tasted like rancid oil, barely cooked. My daughter had a breakfast burrito, again 80% potatoes and others stuff.very disappointed
