This cozy and inviting breakfast place really hit the spot! The portions are quite large and everything tasted really fresh. I ordered an omelette with veggies and pesto. It was delicious and came with potatoes and biscuit or toast. I chose the biscuit which was warm, fluffy, and absolutely delicious with the homemade jam on the table. Great local place... More

Just do not think of going anywhere else for breakfast. Corned beef hash and eggs does not get any better. The specials are all great (try the eggs cabrillo or salmon and eggs). Anything you get here could very well be the best example of whatever you chose to eat that you have had. You will wait for a table... More

This is one of the most popular breakfast places in Ventura so it is usually crowded, especially on the weekends. The food is pretty darn good though and the staff is always nice. They have a good atmosphere as a breakfast diner with lots of action at all times.

The interior is nothing special, but our waitress was very friendly, helpful and efficient. Most importantly, our breakfasts were all very good. My huevos rancheros with potatoes and warm tortillas were delicious. In fact everyone at the table was surprised that I ate so much and they all teased me about it. My husband said his waffle was one of... More

Food was actually good, no complaints, service I don't know it could be better especially the wait, but the frustrating part is that they don't take credit cards, only cash or debit, and for me is a big disadvantage

Yes, there was a wait but it was about 20 minutes. They have a coffee table inside for customers waiting to be seated. I like how they are taking care of their customers even before they are seated. When we walked in, we must have been greeted by at least 3-4 staff members who look like they are always in... More
