So glad we popped in here for breakfast! Good move to go a bit earlier than usual to beat the crowd. We showed up around 9am and it wasn’t too busy but the place was full by 10am. We got the brisket omelette and they’re stuffed French toast special. They were both delicious! The omelette came with a really good portion of brisket, breakfast potatoes, and toast. You can pick from different breads for you toast, so I went with challah. It’s a quirky joint, definitely worth going back to.

The best breakfast spot in San Clemente! Always interesting specials on the menu. Staff is always nice. Relaxed environment. Parking is difficult.

I went here a few months ago and I guess I started the review and forgot to finish it. Went here for brunch and ordered for takeout. This place definitely gets busy on the weekend and be prepared to wait. There was a party there that was willing to wait like 30-45 minutes. Figured this place must be really good if people are willing to wait or come earlier because they already know there's a wait. I was a little disappointed because their google menu was a little out of date. They didn't have the pulled pork omelet or the banana- caramel fluff cream cheese stuffed and crusted french toast. The ladies who took my order was super nice and accommodating. Regardless, how busy they were they still took the time to help and explain their menu to me. 1. Brisket -salsa- sour cream omelet - super juicy and a good portion. The potatoes compliment the omelet perfectly. 2. Sausage and bacon breakfast burrito- delicious and still tasted good when we ate it like an hour or so later because we were so stuffed from the other 2 items. 3. French toast they were able to customize for me because I was deeply looking forward to the banana caramel fluff French toast.. They made me a stuffed and crusted french toast which had bananas, honey, and I believe cream cheese or something inside because they didn't have the fluff or caramel... Words can't describe the party that was going on in my mouth with the first bite. It was genius, the crust on the french toast is from frosted flakes that they coat it with... I highly recommend and will definitely be back soon.
