This family run establishment was outstanding in many ways. Our server Alexa was very cute and on top of things and treated us as if we were in her home. Her Dad was cooking and even though there was a short wait on the food timing we understood... Everything is scratch made here and the Dad was the only one cooking today. Alexa delivered a very nice experience for us and the food was delicious and quite unique in preparation and presentation, we loved it. From outside this place doesn't look like much and the street view and interior could be cleaned and improved upon to make it more of a clean atheistic. We were wanting to go to a Cafe and found one of the best by word of mouth. We were so glad to have showed up here. If it weren't for the ceiling needing cleaned above our table today I'd have given five stars across the board. With a sound cleaning of the restaurant and some paint I think this place would have a much needed charming update. Thank you Alexa and family for being so amazing. We will be back and I hope this review helps. Everyone should go here for a visit. Wow Yum.

First timers here at Joanna’s Cafe, late on a Friday morning, came I from Menifee. The place was packed with almost every table filled. We were seated right away, and our drink orders were taken just as quickly. My wife had the small breakfast, and I had the corned beef hash topped with three poached eggs. The food came out fast, hot and deliciously presented. Wife’s bacon was perfectly crispy, and egg ordered over hard was on point. My poached eggs…I couldn’t have asked for better. We couldn’t drink our coffee fast enough, because our server, Alexa, frequently checked on us. She was like a one woman serving army taking care of every table in the place by herself!!! She didn’t miss a beat. The owner, Jose Duran, even came out of the kitchen, coffee pot in hand, checking in with every customer in the place. Definitely a must visit! We’ll certainly be back again…it’s worth the drive! 👍🏼

one of the best hidden gems ...amazing ambience and curtious staff ...the food is also fresh and organic so the flavour is un beatable and the price is really affordable

First; I need to apologize to the owners of this establishment.
I’ve been coming here for lunch for over 3 years every time I’m the area purchasing materials and not once have a left a review. My sincerest apologies for not doing sooner.
Joanna’s Cafe has been one of my favorite spots here in Riverside for over 3 years now. I just happened to walk in one day because it was very close to my destination. And what a pleasant surprise. The stag was very welcoming and friendly. I never have to wait for a table and service is quick. The food has yet to let me down. Today I tried the biscuits and gravy. It comes with house potatoes and 3 eggs. It was so delicious. ( I’ll attach a picture). I would suggest you give this place a try if you find yourself in the Riverside area. The food here is really good. And the portions are more than enough lol. I’ll keep on stopping by for lunch every time I find myself out. Thank you At everyone at Joanna’s Cafe for making each visit such a nice one. I’ll see you soon.
