First time I’ve been to this Miguels, but I knew it would be wonderful! Really admired the lovely art pieces scattered throughout.

While we were waiting for our food, the waiter was very friendly and the Manager stopped by to see if we needed anything. So we asked her why there was such a long line at the restaurant across the street, thinking they had some sort of party or special deal going? Nope, she explained how this particular restaurant does this on purpose, making people wait in a line when they don’t have to since they have an additional seating area upstairs. Hmmm, she said it is their attempt at looking like they are busier than Miguel’s, thinking it will get them extra business. Very tricky these neighbors are I think.

Ordered a breakfast burrito along with an iced tea. The burrito was excellent, tortilla browned nicely, potatoes seasoned well, bell peppers cooked perfectly, sausage very flavorful.

I use a combination of my iPhone and my Fujifilm X-E2 camera for all my photographs. Just depends on where I am as to which one I'll use to take my pictures with. I love to write original stories combined with my photographs. If you'd like to send me a message or comment, please do so at; maggie@hungryones.com We just celebrated our 14th Anniversary this October 2016!! So exciting!! 2015 A couple since 2003 and now on the precipice of this new journey, our fondest hope is this website serves a purpose. One of useful information presented in an elegant, beautiful photographic setting. Together we love to discover new restaurants, food trucks, diners, café’s, huts or where ever we find food being served. The love of artful, carefully crafted, passionately orchestrated food, beverages and let’s not forget desert, Is something we both enjoy immensely. Immersing ourselves in the history, culture and surrounding locations of our adventures hopefully leads to not only meeting new people, but making new friends, sharing ideas, listening to stories and learning something new everyday.

    1. In the Brigantine Proposal to replace Anthony’s on the downtown waterfront; Miguel’s is included. :>)

        1. Yes I agree, will miss Anthony’s on the waterfront. Hopefully they will decide to open at least one more.
