    Mr Pete's burger
    Austin W.

    Great service! Delicious and huge burger. Fries were fresh and crispy. Nice and clean restaurant with plenty of seating.

    What an awesome spot! They happily served up our party of 15!! After we noticed, we beat the crowd. It's a pretty lively, with outdoor and indoor seating. A real definition of a spot for anyone, including kids, and your fur babies to enjoy. We all ordered a mixture of breakfast, omelets, chicken strips, and burgers. Everything was really good! Lots of flavor, and now I'm hungry... I ordered a sausage breakfast plate with a Michie:) They serve a variety of adult beverages. Mimosas and Michies for the WIN! SO GOOD with an appealing presentation with the taJin rimmed jar cup! The little mini champagne that was adorable. It was a great time for 11am!! The staff was very friendly and attentive. One restroom is available.

    Loco Moco, Avocado omelette, and hawaiian latte.
    Abeeha H.

    The service here was cute, they were helpful in choosing out which menu items to have, and it does seem like a family-owned (i think) business, which is always something to look forward to supporting. Unfortunately, I agree with a lot of the recent comments that the food is simply too greasy and lacks flavor. I think that the interior and service can outweigh that for some folks, but as a first-timer I'm not sure if I want my brunch soaked in grease that early in the morning. I think the restaurant could improve on the quality of ingredients in that manner. On other notes, the hawaiian latte was a good size and tasted good as well. Overall, the experience was okay, and it is a more unique concept available in the San Clemente area.

    Sriracha and maple syrup chicken & waffles

    Quaint, beachside diner offering an abundant selection of Hawaiian/American breakfast fusion. They have such a large menu, it takes me forever to order sometimes, there's so many great options! My boyfriend's go to is the sriracha maple chicken waffle. The flavors melt so perfectly into each other in this buttery, cheesy, sweet dish. I normally go with the California omelette, which comes with three eggs, bacon, Swiss cheese, & avocado (I add caramelized onions) with either a side of toast or fried rice. One of my favorite breakfast spots in town. They also have a drive through so super easy to grab after a long surf in the morning and not wanting to get out soaking wet! Super good burgers too.

    Came here for the breakfast burrito. I got the veggie filled with avocado (for additional charge). It was a hefty size and pretty good. The side of refries beans was a nice treat. Id definitely come back to try something else since the menu is aided with options. Good service, order was out promptly. Plenty of seating indoor and out. Place is very casual.

    Burger was really dry and chewy, pastrami was dry and my fried zucchini was limp and bland. The fried zucchini is not battered, it's unsalted breadcrumbs and doesn't hold up well or taste good. The only thing I liked was the ranch dressing. Went thru the drive thru, took a while and costed almost $20 for lunch for 1 person. Not recommended

    Potatoes from 1/2 bacon breakfast burrito
    Matt T.

    Came for my usual breakfast burrito, it gets worse each time. Practically no bacon, it's a potato burrito. Ordered it with extra bacon, still maybe 2 pieces in entire burrito. The pic is the potato i pulled from 1/2 a burrito, 1/2!! Who wants 2 entire potatoes for breakfast. A positive is their customer service. The guy at drive thru window has always been cool. Been coming here for 6 years pretty consistently, can't find a reason to give them business anymore. $21 for a potato fueled coma

    P.O.M mimosa... bacon two eggs and 2 banana pancakes... delicious

    I really enjoyed my food... reasonably priced. The portions are nice. The young lady at the register was amazing Daisy. She was , friendly and in owledgeable and great smile.. she was non stop delivering orders and bussing tables! I will be back!!

    Fried zucchini
    Paulette D.

    You order your food at the counter and then they give you a number for them to bring your food to. The prices are pretty decent for the amount of food and there's ton of tables/seats for everyone. I got the aloha burger because it was one of the few that just had lettuce and tomatoes. For the price, it's what you expect it to be. The fried zucchini fries were amazing!! I would order this as a side if you are planning on getting one. I thought the hash browns were going to be something different because some photos showed a circular hash brown but maybe that's only for burgers?

    Breakfast Burger
    Heidi L.

    Omg i love their bagel burger breakfast at. Service is excellent, right on point always asking if everything is okay and good. Very friendly with customers. Very clean place compared to the last restaurant/owners there.

    Belgium waffles, pancakes, eggs, bacon coffee, California Omelette...
    Doug S.

    Aloha! *IS* the best single word to use here. Your delightful experience will likely start with a genuinely warm greeting from Roger or Emily. That is just the start of the Aloha embrace. Whether you're dropping in for lunch or breakfast... Everything on the menu is superb... And obviously made with the same Aloha spirit from the cooks in the kitchen. The magic is brought out to your table with a huge smile... And a genuine interest in your awesome experience. The hot chocolate? Must do! Belgian waffles, and all the other breakfast goodness that the islands offer... Burgers for lunch... Really, it couldn't be better... Super clean, super friendly, best food you're gonna have. Mahalo kids!

All items I tasted at our table were delicious. I had the daily special halibut and pasta. The pasta with white wine sauce was awesome but the halibut was overcooked to my desires. The bread bowl that arrived alongside the chowder worked well to soak up the pasta's sauce. They didn't offer a traditional calamari for appetizers but they offered a very tender steak of calamari into a sandwich that was great. The fish tacos were good, but just that. Service was good but, perhaps it's policy to not refill glasses of water, tea or soda. I was dry by the time we had finished. The deck outside was pleasant except I made a comment to our table that "this has to be the only patio that is louder than inside". The staff clanked and clunked every dish, table setting and chair. It was very loud and occasionally startling. The deck was made from wood planks and the sound of the chairs being adjusted brought back undesired military memories. And the birds (pigeons mostly) will take off and land without warning and scare just about everyone. Otherwise a great place to get your fish on. CritDicks

I wish I did sooner! I past by this place on my way to work every day. Literally. Its on route for me and I never thought to myself to eat breakfast here nor check it out, I know on the days when I head back home it's always pack and people be waiting for a table. And that's on a sunny day. Well I was wrong for thinking oh it wouldn't be crowded on a rainy day. NOPE. I was sooooo wrong. It was PACKED and busy. Ain't even the rain gonna stop people to get some good food. What supposed to be a long day at work, tournament was cancelled last minutes and my staff was really bummed because we did travel to work. (I work two jobs and the other is a bit of commute to get to) so with that I was thinking, heck, it's still early in the morning (7am on sunday, a rainy sunday) and suggested breakfast. A bit of yelp search, i stumbled on Antoine's and saw a couple of Elites reviewed and ask my staff if they wanted to eat here. Took less than a couple of second but everyone agreed. By the time we got there (around 10am) it was packed and the rain was just picking up because before we got here, the car in front of us hydroplane and skid off the road and hit the curb. Yet, this place was still pack and parking was full. (We found street parking near Starbucks) I had my staff placed our name down since she lives closer, but they won't see you until all your party is here and that's fine. We ended up seating at the bar and left the booth for other parties. Love the teamwork, the staff were super stars doing a rush like that, let me tell you it PACKED HOUSE and we got our food and drinks on time, no one in my party had to wait to eat and I forgot to take pictures of my staff meals, only took mines and what I got for the table to share was a croissant french toast, which I believe was their special of the day. I got the chicken fried steak and the portion are MASSIVE!!! All of us took our food home because the portion size are insanely big and bang for the buck!! Great place to eat breakfast or brunch or even a 'Team Building Breakfast Time' LOL Just happy to treating out my amazing staff on their work.

The vibe is very much your classic neighborhood café not super modern or trendy, but more homey, cozy, and family-friendly. It really feels like the kind of spot that locals go to all the time. We ordered the Nutella crêpe, the biscuits and gravy (which came with sausage and hash browns), and an omelet filled with goat cheese, turkey, and spinach. Everything was delicious. The portions were solid and the quality was really great. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Pricing is pretty average, around $16 to $23 depending on what you order but for the quality and portion sizes, it's definitely worth it. Overall, I would highly recommend stopping by if you're in San Clemente and looking for a casual, cozy breakfast spot to start your morning.
