If you’re not white or dress, well, they’ll give you a really bad service they’ll get other ppl who came after you their food first or they won’t go to ur table after u get ur food to refill ur drinks or see if you need anything
I saw a review from a few weeks ago about slow service. I experienced quick service by welcoming, attentive servers with great smiles and friendly attitudes.

First time visit, and the food was delicious. Prices were reasonable and service was friendly. Let us not forget the banna bread. The best I ever had
Came from Canada and decided to look up the local breakfast restaurants and this location peeked my interest, more of a cozy, smaller restaurant which always tends to have the best food.
Which it did! The food was delicious, eggs were done perfectly to my liking, plenty of home fries, the sausage/bacon was delicious and the pancakes hit the spot!
The most impressive thing here was the quality of service, the staff were incredibly kind, fast and courteous, coffee refills were fast and plenty, from the time I ordered , the food must've came within 5 mins, it felt so quick .
If I am ever back in California, I'm definitely coming here again

Go here only if you have plenty of time.
I went for breakfast before 11:30am with a clear idea of what would order to beat the lunchtime rush. I got coffee fairly quickly, but it took 10 min to order.
It took what seemed a normal prep time of 20+ minutes for the food to arrive as early lunch arrivals filled all the tables.
The server didn’t hear my order right and brought the wrong meat on my "Meat Lovers". It was corrected fairly quickly, but of course, only the meat was warm when it was re-served.
I hungrily cleaned my plate. It was another 10 minutes waiting to get the check.
Overall, I spent nearly 1½ hours trying to get a quick breakfast.
Though the helper came by with fresh coffee often enough, I was reminded of how I felt about a year ago when I first visited. It was an annoyed feeling of invisibility and not being heard.
The bottom line is,...
Food was really good.
Experience?... not so much.
I DID get through my email backlog. If I wasn't alone, there was plenty of time for talking.

John Wayne themed and a great spot for breakfast!
My girlfriend and I arrived a little over an hour after they opened. There were only 3 or 4 other parties inside so we got seated immediately (we actually sat ourselves in a little booth). Shortly after, it started getting a little busier.
Fickled between breakfast and lunch food, I ended up ordering the Chipotle Chicken Sandwich. My girlfriend got the Big Mini Breakfast, and we ordered a Banana Loaf to share. After placing our order it only took about 10 minutes to receive everything.
How was it?
- Chipotle Chicken Sandwich: Chicken breast, romaine lettuce, tomato, and avocado with chipotle mayonnaise on a French roll. It was decent sized and the chicken was good. Overall it had good flavor. For my side I had chosen fries (because I love fries). They were OK, a little more soggy than I would've liked.
- Big Mini Breakfast: 2 eggs, 2 bacon, toast, and hashbrowns (her choice). She said the food was good but the potatos were a little undercooked inside.
- Banana Loaf: A thick slice of banana bread (?), topped with whipped butter. Sweet, but not too sweet. Pieces of walnuts and raisins here and there. Moist and heavy. Pretty good.
Service was good, multiple people checked up on our table and made sure we were doing OK.
Parking wasn't bad considering it's the weekend and we got there early. I can see how it could be an issue during the week ot when it gets busy.
Worth a shot!
Best place for breakfast!

So there was this woman she seemed like the manager she was so rude. She made a comment about my son and then she proceeded to charge us double for only one drink, which was pretty stupid.

This place was recommended to us to to eat by Zavala Book repair as I am not from this area. So glad we came here, our family loves these diner gems. Paola (I hope I have her name right) was very sweet and made the experience all the better. I look forward to coming back soon. God bless these businesses, and may the Lord lift them all up in Jesus Christ's Name Amen

Highlights: Great food , fresh, clean, needs more space
Detailed review: nice place to eat breakfast. The orange juice is fresh with a big slice of orange. Not bad portions for the price but my favorite breakfast dish from here is the biscuits and gravy they're not dry or overly salted biscuit was nice a flaky and fresh while the gravy was thick and creamy didn't taste like those store bought biscuits , not like other places do and heat up with the gravy not like that at all. definitely would come back.
Dislikes: does need to be bigger if they can make a outdoor dinning where the trees are that would make it better for seating.
