Kris — and all,

The two restaurants are not related in any way. The owners of each happen to be related, and the locations were, more than 30 years ago, owned by Joe Tucker’s parents. Today, the two restaurants share the family name but nothing else.

Joe and Carla Tucker own and operate the restaurant at 1637 Vine (between Liberty and Green). Mrs. Tucker (Joe’s mother) still works there six days a week. This is the restaurant that Julie reviewed.

I’ve never eaten at either location…but both the one on Vine and the one on 13th street are owned by the same family. I can say the guy who runs the one on 13th is just as friendly as what I’m hearing on this site about the other…but since I’ve never eaten at either I can’ say if the food is the same.

Tucker’s was a great hit on our trip from Michigan. Found out about it on the web, checked it out. The food was incredible. Goetta is the best breakfast meat all of us have ever had. Went to the Findlay Market immediately after and bought 10 pounds to bring back. We will probably go back to Cinncy just because of Tuckers! Check it out, it’s awesome!

Julie–
Thanks for the note. Sorry about the brain freeze on your website. I knew better.

I really liked everything about Tucker’s except for the food. Next time I ask for a recommendation– the service was so friendly I think I’ll end up with something better.

And yes… La Mexicana is WORLDS better than Nada, although I’ve become partial to my little place up in Fairfield. If only my co-workers like either!

I eat at Tucker’s just about every weekend. Huevos Rancheros. Dear Lord, I’ve never had better.

Julie,

As I said in my first comment to this post, Tucker’s and occurrences there appear regularly in my blog posts. Here are links to several such posts:

Not a time of day issue. When the biscuits made for that day are gone, there are no more biscuits served.

There is a small kitchen in the back. Six burner range, one oven, two door fridge, a freezer, three bowl dish station and a small prep area. Tiny. Two people and you feel like you are dancing — cheek to cheek.
