Cue up that Cynthia Fee theme, grab the cheesecake from the fridge and settle in with your favorite gal pals because Rue La Rue Café, the much-anticipated Golden Girls-themed cafe in Washington Heights, is finally open.

The cafe—which is done up with palm-tree wallpaper and GG memorabilia from its namesake, beloved Blanche Devereaux actress Rue McClanahan—is currently open for breakfast and lunch only, Tuesday through Sunday from 7:30am to 3:30pm. (Dinner service is expected to roll out in the next few weeks.)



On the menu, you can expect plenty of show-themed bites, including a coconut cake named for McClanahan's iconic costar Betty White and, of course, a cheesecake, this one a salted-caramel ode to Bea Arthur's famously salty character, Dorothy Zbornak.

Check out an early video peek below:
