“ Nice breakfat place in the heart of La Jolla. The place was quite busy at 8:45am but got seated almost right away. No nonsense breakfast food items. Huge selection, large portions, quick and friendly service. Coffee could've been stronger, but it'll do. A tad on the expensive side, but hey, it's La Jolla, CA. We were so hungry, so I did not get a chance to take pics of food. No fancy plating, just food, good food. ”
“ We were pleasantly surprised that we were seated quickly. Service was great. Our orders were corrected and absolutely amazing! Extremely flavorful! The Spanish omelet was huge! The chilaquilas was very flavorful. Ordered the breakfast pancake cake for my son's birthday. ....presentation was wonderful. Doreen was our server and she was an absolute delight. ”
“ Amazing experience. 1) Warm and inviting service as soon as we walked in. 2) Server was super nice and knowledgeable about the menu. 3) Food arrived quickly and although my eggs were not quite as I ordered, they were replaced quickly. 4) The overall atmosphere was nice.

We had Santa Fe omelette , German pancake , regular strawbery pancakes then we had Baked pecan pie. Coffee was excellent and they kept filling our cups. Service was very good and waitress were so friendly. A muct visits if you're in San Diego. ”
“ Ended up here after our 1st choice was a long wait time, I think this was a way better choice my wife wasnt to excited about me ordering chilaquiles because it wasn't a Mexican restaurant, but out of all the great tasting food we had it was the most delicious highly recommend if you try this place out 10-10 ”
“ Great service, very polite staff. The food is good too; come check it out, you won't be disappointed! ”
“ We had a lovely breakfast outside. The wait staff was attentive and informative. They kept our coffees filled and warm. We enjoyed eating outdoors with the heaters, keeping us toasty. The food was delicious and plentiful. It was also refreshing seeing the employees getting a chance to enjoy their food during their break or end of shift. Our guess was the ownership is family-oriented. ”
