What They're saying about us.
Gwyneth Doland; The Santa Fe Reporter
What distinguishes this menu from most others is a notable El Salvadoran influence.
The place is light and airy. Outside, a sunny patio table allows for soaking in the spring sun.

I like the Tune-Up Café. This new restaurant is simple and unpretentious, friendly and inviting.
Tune-Up Café features a menu that fits the cozy space, a small but delicious assortment of American favorites, New Mexican choices and a few Salvadoran touches. It has a stay-and-sit-a-spell ambiance.

The house-ground beef on the "Dave Was Here Burger" was tasty and delicious; a two-hander that was better than I remember its namesake being. The desserts are house-made as well. If you don't have time to try the old-fashioned banana-spice cupcakes filled with custard and topped with cream cheese icing (yum!), grab one of the dense peanut butter cookie sandwiches stuffed with Nutella chocolate-hazelnut spread. They are killer.

The breakfast menu reads like New Orleans (fresh fruit stuffed French toast) meets New Mexico (breakfast burrito)and El Salvador (Huevos El Salvadorenos). Who wouldn't want to wake up to such delicious options The lunch menu pays a playful mark of respect to its predecessor tenant with a burger named "Dave Was Here," a burger that feels strangely familiar. It is one of three burgers on the menu, including a vegan made burger--the brown rice nut burger, a housemade patty served on a brioche bun.
