The menu seems to be a replica of another Mexican restaurant in near by Long Beach, and there are many combinations to choose from. I ordered the same meal that I would at the other restaurant. The food tasted fresh and the portions were ample. I would have liked it more had the food been heated longer so it would remain hot and steamy as I ate. The decor is not that of a Mexican nature, and the table and chairs are more that of a diner, but it was comfy enough. The staff were attentive and pleasant. Maybe a bit too chatty and the conversation was shared loud and across the room, but our waitress had a challenging experience the night before and since this is a small community I think it was more the customers questioning her and to not respond would not have been good on her part. And everyone was smiling and joking with her, and if that had gone on all her shift, she remained kind and smiling as she worked. The restaurant hasn't been open very long, and they may still be settling. Our experience there was pleasant, relaxed and unpretentious. I liked it, just would have enjoyed it more if the food were served hotter....steaming on the plate as it was served.

We had the pleasure of eating here August 30, 2024. First we were greeted with a very large smile. We ordered the Chicken Fried Steak because they actually bread them theirselves. We had a plate or should I say platter full of steak, hash browns and sausage gravy. The food was delicious and service outstanding. This is a must stop!

Ordered burrito....just was a mess. Rice and beans were just barely warm and chicken burrito was soaked with cheese, not on a good way. Won't ever go there again

As a parent to small children, they get extra stars simply for having this area for families! Also the food is delicious! We loved it. When you're a parent, having something to entertain the kids while you're trying to get a bite eat is sooo welcomed. I appreciate that they are so thoughtful with this part of the restaurant. Also, their cook is trying to raise money for her mother to get a knee replacement. I thought I'd put this out there so the public knows :)
Kid-friendliness: Excellent! They have a family area with toys for kids to play with while parents eat.

We used to go to Anita's coastal cafe for years. Excellent breakfasts and lunches. We have been disappointed since new owners took over. Hash brownS tasted like they were cooked with butter before, now it tastes like bad oil. Could not recommend to people under new ownership unless the bring back the excellent food they used to have.

We try to support the local diners in ocean park but nights like tonight really make it hard to want to go back. When we pull into the front door at 7:23 and the wait staff turns the sign to closed as she looks directly at the 5 of us then moves on….. we won’t be back. They food here was great and we recommend it to everyone but to have the doors closed in our faces is unacceptable. We will make sure to tell those same people of our experience tonight.

Great place for breakfast! We've also had dinner there. Highly recommend the Tacos Al Carbon. Senorita in the kitchen is a great cook, good home cooking! Service is great.
Incredible bunch. Excellent service.
