Social Profile:

For over five decades this location has been serving family friendly food to the community. What started as a seasonal drive in called Cal’s became a dine-in during the late 70’s when purchased by Patsy Dickens. For 40 years Patsy’s served breakfast and lunch. When she finally decided to retire the diner was also set to close. This is when loyal patrons Barry and Walt took over the iconic diner in 2018. Their goal was to operate the diner until an ambitious new owner could be found. In 2022 when speaking with patrons Nic Robertucci and Carrie Bradford, Barry and Walt knew they had found that perfect match. Carrie and Nic have been operating the diner since April 2022.

Today was my first time visiting Geneva, NY (work trip) and I stopped into Tucci’s for brunch. I’m very glad I did. The place is comfortable, quiet, has good music, and excellent menu choices. The absolute best thing was the food!! Phenomenal ❤️. I got the country benny, which is a half order of biscuits and gravy with over medium eggs and beef hash, with a side of bacon and a coffee. Every bite was delightful. The biscuits were crisp on the bottom, the hash complimented the gravy to perfection. The coffee was really good; I’ve had some crap diner coffee before, but not at Tucci’s.
Best of all was the kindness and attentiveness of the “staff”, which was the owner Nick and his brother. Nick was serving and recommended a few options, one of which was the country benny. I’m glad I didn’t just go with a stack of pancakes because, oh boy, that was good. Nick’s brother is the chef, and came out of the kitchen to chat when it was a bit slow. Honestly, I have no idea why it was slow, because I love everything about this place and more people should be eating there.
I also recommend their deserts. Nick gave me a free slice of lemon cake before I headed out. It had just the lightest touch of lemon, very subtle, and soft cake with frosting that wasn’t overly sweet.
I’ll definitely be coming back the next time I’m in town.

Delicious! Eggs were cooked over medium and done just right. Bread was buttered well and I can’t say enough great things about the experience.
Can’t wait to go back and try some pancakes or even the burgers.

Also the restaurant was extremely clean. Impressed by that. I can imagine on busy days it can get cramped, but plenty of seating.

I searched for one of the best-rated breakfast spots in the area and this did not disappoint. Loved everything about this place! The food portions are HEARTY. Cozy and cute diner atmosphere. We got omelettes, corned beef, and the pancakes—all were excellent and moderately-priced. The big pancake is as big as a hula hoop. (Joking, kind of) Service was superb! Would definitely come back!

Went to Tucci’s for dinner last night. We’d never been before, but we’re so glad we did!
The food was perfect. First it came out really fast! I had a chicken breast sandwich. It was cooked all the way through and still juicy – that’s not an easy feat! The tots were the perfect balance of light & crispy. My hubs had the clam & shrimp dinner with fries and applesauce. The clams and shrimp were done exactly as they should be. It’s so easy to overcook seafood, but they did it perfectly. The fries were spot on as well.
The service was excellent. Our server was very friendly and kind. She was there when we needed her and she checked back to refill drinks and see if we needed anything else in a very timely manner.
The prices were very fair. We perused the menu and all their pricing seems very fair. The restaurant and bathrooms were very clean.
We will definitely be back!

Great little family run diner. Clean and well kept with friendly service. Food is excellent, with decent portions, just a bit on the more expensive side for the area. They do support local suppliers which is both better quality and makes up for said prices. Try their breakfast plate with a side of sausage gravy; every time I get it, I’m full until dinner!

A surprise experience in Waterloo/Geneva area. It was my first time at Tucci’s, and my family and I truly enjoyed it. We ordered the Friday Haddock Fish-Fry with Mac Salad, the Extreme Grilled Cheese, a Breakfast Sandwich, Tomato Soup, and the kids Grilled Cheese. We all devoured our meals, but had to bring a little home with us. The staff was friendly and attentive and went the extra mile to make sure our meal was exactly what we wanted-even if we were a little early for it ‍♀️.

We also enjoyed how bright the restaurant was. A lot of restaurants are dimly lit or decorated with dark colors. Tucci’s is full of sunlight (without being overbearing) and the interior colors accentuate the summery atmosphere. It was overall a very pleasant experience. We will definitely be visiting again.

Very friendly service… Their pancakes are excellent they are light and fluffy good size and cooked very well… They know how to make crispy well done hash… The place went through a renovation a few years ago it looks very nice inside…. There are several booths to sit at along with 10 counter seats…. They also have a great sense of humor…. Our server caught on to our humor very quickly and continued The banter between everyone…

Nic and Carrie do a tremendous job with customer appreciation. I’ve had several breakfasts here and a few fish fries.
From the moment we walked in the door, we were treated like family. Nothing fancy, just a true, old fashioned family diner.
Their omelets are delicious, fluffy, and generous with your preferred fillings.
The fish fry at Tucci’s has no competition.
If you’re close, and hungry, stop there. You will not be disappointed.

A small, quaint, local family diner that is “a must”.

The menu is largely based on traditional breakfast and lunch diner foods. There is also a nice selection of unique house specials.

With just one visit, Tucci’s has become my new go to breakfast spot in the Geneva/Waterloo area!

My husband, dad and I stopped in for a “brunch” time breakfast and we were so pleased to see the FULL parking lot had a few spots when we went in. I had the country Benny and it was DELICIOUS! the ingredients tasted fresh and homemade — no greasy gravy and the sausage was packed. Corned beef has wasn’t overly salty and the biscuits were either homemade or well sourced! Hubby had the biscuits and gravy and he said they’re on par with his all-time favorites. My dad had his classic – a western omelet. He commented how big it was and how fluffy the eggs were. Wins all around!

Paige provided awesome service, too. We’ll be back soon – especially to try the fish fry!
