Sure, it's kitschy and cute, but the food is great. Chilaquiles to die for, especially if you had one to many cervezas the night before. On Valentine's Day they host a wonderful dinner with games and prizes, and a twinkie tiramisu that is too much fun.
And if you have to wait for a table, grab some coffee on the house and browse the neighborhood.

Kitsch'n cooks up some of the best signature dishes for brunch in the city. My personal favorites: Spicy-Crazy Eggs, Chile-quiles (the hangover cure!), Fried Chicken and Waffles, and their Coconut French Toast! The staff is extremely nice, and the crowd can run the gambit from 20-somethings to old-timers. I'd describe it as kind of a dive-bar meets 70's-chic urban hipster place - but don't let that fool you because the food is great, there is good service, and the place is clean and oozes cool decor (set the wayback machine for 1975). The wait is usually quick for parties of 2, and the few times we've gone with a group it hasn't taken too long either (20 min. max) - the spicy bloody mary's help the wait go by fast!
Pros: Great Food, Homemade Spicy Bloody Mary, Nice Staff
Cons: Can get busy (but the waits isn't too long)

After watching a Food Network special on this eatery, my husband and I had to check out Kitschn on Roscoe. It's a combo of homemade comfort food with a VH1 twist-- the cafe is filled with pop culture memorabilia, lunch boxes, toys, and board games. There's plenty to look at here while you wait for one of their delicious specialties. In all my travels, I've never seen twinkie tiramisu before-- it's a must try!

After seeing Rachel Ray review this restaurant on her food show, we decided to give it a shot one weekend. We weren't disappointed one bit and can't wait to go back again! The atmosphere is kitschy diner-meets-your mom's kitchen with plenty of stuff to look at on the walls, vintage toys, and quirky antiques on display. The front room is pretty tiny, but there's a large back room and outdoor patio, so don't panic if you see the place is packed. The food is fantastic, so much so that they were out of fried chicken by the time we got there! The ribs were tasty, as was the veggie lasagna my wife ordered. Don't forget to end your dinner with their famous Twinkie tiramisu! Great, friendly service that doesn't rush you!

I would decorate my house like this restaurant if my husband would let me. It is retro fabulous with sort of a new trendy flair... yet somehow unique. I don't know how they do it. I adore the wait staff, I think they are some of the kindest in the area. The owner has come up with some very interesting interpretations of good old comfort foods as well things like Twinkie Tiramisu, just to make you smile. The food looks great and is fun to eat. It tastes good too, but with all the flair, I think it should taste a little better. I will keep going back because the atmosphere rocks!!

Kitsch'n -- what a blast! This is a great place to dine when you're in the mood for something different. They have an excellent brunch menu as well as an interesting dinner menu. The atmosphere is just as the name describes -- kitschy! You'll find all your favorite childhood toys and old-time TV shows playing on the old-time TVs. Their cocktail selection is marvelous -- be sure to check out their Tang martini! The best time to visit is in the warmer summer months -- the beer garden in the back of the restaurant is relaxing and provides the perfect summer night's fun.

My boyfriend and I just had dinner here, and enjoyed every bite. The tortilla chip/mango salsa appetizer was delicious, as were our meals. I'm sure their breakfast and brunch are also quite tasty, but if you're not wanting to battle the crowds, try 'em in the evening. We'll definitely be returning soon!
Pros: Fun atmosphere, Delicious food
Cons: Cramped seating

Have tried a bunch of breakfast places, somehow I keep going back to Kitschn. The 70's decor, friendly service... great food... start with the spicy Chorizo and follow it with the Coconut crusted french toast... it makes for a perfect way to kickstart a weekend morning. There seating at the patio in the back... and lots of table games to keep you occupied (even a mock boxing game thats so much fun).
