Out of the way place right on the Santa Paula airport. The breakfast is really good. Cooked right to order. A few hiccups, but really good. The service is top-notch. Mindy was my server and was very kind and on top of every table she had that morning. Will definitely be back.

Every time we go through, we stop for fabulous "home style delicious meals!" For years, the service is always friendly and attentive. Today "Mindy" served us and we decided that when they make robot servers they need to make the "Mindy" model. Vibrant smile and energy, delighted to serve our family of four, and made us feel fully welcome. As always the food was perfectly divine. The homestyle chicken fried steak is tenderized, battered and fried as good as mine, my boys said, but I think better! Crispy out and tender goods inside. The white milk gravy is homemade from the pan drippings. There's no other way to do it this well! Homemade biscuit with real creamery butter will stick to your ribs and lure you to bliss. Eggs over easy done just right. Hashbrowns crispy, rich coffee, and what seemed like fresh squeezed OJ. Any day is a good day to stop for a great eating experience, but in the first Sundays of the month, the aviation museums are open and free of charge. Might be live bands, raffles, airplane rides and more fun for one and all. Enjoy!

Literally right on the tarmac. Great view of planes that take off every few minutes. Food was decent albeit it can be slow when it gets busy!

Very nice burger and onion rings with relaxing atmosphere. It's enjoyable watching the small planes, especially on 1st Sunday of every month. The service is great and the prices are reasonable. Highly recommended.

Terrible experience attending comedy night. Understand when a restaurant is short staffed; however waitress was taking orders from tables who sat down after us even when the room was manageable. Kindly brought to her attention and she never came over. We were at the restaurant from 650PM-10PM, she never acknowledge us or took our order. I will not be back.

Came in after hearing alot of good stuff about this place. I came in for a burrito and this it what I got be the judge yourself. $18 Cali burrito. This is crazy work. All French fries and a mediocre piece of meat. Bless your hearts if you like coming here.

Gathered with family the restaurant was very busy. The staff was working very hard .I ordered a cheeseburger it was very tough and grey color . ?. My husband and son ordered Ribeye steak it was thin and mostly fat - waste of money . I say charge more and have quality meat customers would appreciate that more.People like you get what they pay for in my experience.

Still the best food. The servings are huge. I enjoy this café. I have been going to the Santa Paula Airport and cafe since I was a child. The atmosphere is relaxing and enjoyable. It is a pleasure to watch the planes take off and land. I grew up in a home based around flight and grew up flying. I had the corned beef hash, hashbrowns, scrambled eggs topped with cheddar cheese, and a biscuit with a side of country gravy. There was no way I could finish my food (too full). The corned beef was perfectly crispy on the outside. Absolutely perfect. The hashbrowns were the perfect texture. The biscuit was great with the gravy… everyone else in my party enjoyed their food. The only complaint that I have is… the service was extremely slow. I believe that they were short staffed. The staff was extremely friendly. We will be back. Thank you for a wonderful time.

MINORITIES I DO NOT RECOMMEND. We were waiting for about 20 minutes to be seated and no one came out we had to peek our head inside to see if it was open seating and I do understand busy times but we waited still and a WHITE couple came inside not even 5 min and we’re offered to sit at the bar. We walked right out as soon as that happened. Food is great there but customer service is not and we will definitely not be bringing anyone here again. Stupid perra with the red hair

Waitress and one Busboy were slammed. But they stayed on top on it until help arrived. Good food. Pleasant Staff. The only down side was soda tasted funny.

Flight 126 use to be a fav, today not so much!The following was unsatisfactory:-Watery coffee, tasted flat-Rubbery pancakes, no taste, left off the bananas-Chilaquiles, missing the "diced" raw onions, a server brought out slices of onion when asked a second time.-Two plates had cold/barely warm/under cooked potatoes.-Hashbrowns, undercooked-Chili cheese omelet, lacked flavor, ordered avocado, nogo, ordered crispy bacon, it was at least cooked.-Biscuit and gravy, no flavor, canned gravy would have been better.Maybe today they had a different cook, or something. But definitely not as good as a few months ago. It's gonna be a little while until we come back to Flight 126. Hope y'all figure things out.
