    Veggie Omelet with Egg whites and Avocado
    Alan D.

    A hidden gem here in Bay Point. I feel like you have to know about this place to come here, since it is tucked away in an off road area. This place screams ma and pa for sure and I love the atmosphere it provides. From just sitting down, I can tell the locals here know the owner since they are extremely friendly with each other. My service was amazing, since he (Omar) ensured my meal and stay was grand. Egg White Veggie Omelet: I always love a good omelet and they did this one amazingly. The amount of veggies they put it in (mushrooms, bell peppers, cheese, tomato, onions) definitely made me feel satiated after eating. I added avocado to give it more color and another depth of flavor. The hashbrowns were very crispy and made the meal feel complete. Overall, a very delicious omelet. I for sure see myself coming back here again and again

    A surprisingly good find! It was kind of sketchy finding the location, but trust the GPS. You have to use the sliding door to get in, then open another door to find the main part of the restaurant. The food was so good. I had an omelette and the waffle with ice cream. The service was prompt and very polite.

    So I've had this spot a couple of times already, introduced by the coworkers. Can't tell you anything about the location or any of that (( the pics look good, looks like it has open space, just have had it by the door dash only)) So the main things I've had from here are the onion rings, linguica, and the dam Henkel Breakfast Sandwich....dope like coke. literally. Talk about bang for the buck ESE Henkel sandwich comes fully loaded and it doesn't play.. sausage patty, egg, bacon, ham, top it off with hashbrowns and ayayayiiii nap time comes knocking at the door. pair that with some deep-fried thick onion rings. PINCHE FINITO You just can't say no. I know how it sounds but give it a try for sure won't let you leave hungry.

    I've driven by a couple times for the scenery, then I finally stopped for lunch. It's always so relaxing being by the water and the parked boats of just about any small harbor. Food here was excellent and the service was great! I have never thought to add tomato and avocado to a grilled cheese sandwich. Now after eating it here, I will definitely do it at home. I don't think mine will be as good as Big Daddy Ross'--they use sourdough for the grilled cheese and it is DA BOMB!!! Bathrooms are clean. Wheel chair accessible. Nice ambiance. Friendly staff and excellent customer service with a smile. If you choose to give a thumbs-up or not, I hope you found my review helpful!

    Bacon and Eggs

    I asked for grilled onions on my Avocado and Mushroom Hamburger, which was absolutely delicious. We sat near the kitchen and could see the great care the cooks, Jack and Arezki, took in making the food. My husband saw the burger and said the next time we return, he was would order the same hamburger and ask for grilled onions, as well. He had already ordered eggs, bacon and a Belgian waffle. This is his favorite thing to order here and they make great Belgian waffles. You want great breakfast and lunch food, this is THE place to go!!

    Half size classic breakfast
    Alyssa Mae L.

    Came in for lunch while visiting a friend in the Antioch area. Upon arriving, my friends and I were quite surprised to be pulling up to what just looked like a shipyard along the delta. Just keep following your directions and find parking close to the building with sign "cafe" on it and you'll be at the right place! Upon entering, we were told to pick wherever we wanted to sit. We were immediately attended to by 3 different waitresses, which felt super welcoming. I ordered a half size classic breakfast with sausages, a sunny side up egg, sourdough toast, and country potatoes. The toast came out buttered and tasted amazing with jam. The egg, sausage, and potatoes were just as expected - delicious but nothing amazing. I still left full and satisfied. A decent spot and a local business to support!

    1/2 Biscuits & Gravy
    Kawehionapua Y.

    A hidden gem worth checking out. It's a small little spot down the marina and they serve you with a smile. Everyone is friendly, even the young teenagers who work there! My son and I stumbled upon this place one morning when I was not up for cooking breakfast. He enjoyed the French Toast combo - it came with french toast, eggs, and bacon (you can choose ham or sausage if you prefer), he said the bread was nice and soft, and it was soggy from the batter. That's a huge deal for him. I tried the Big Rossy Omelet, it was loaded with ham, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, onions, and cheese - swiss AND cheddar! It was served nice and hot, and each time you cut into the omelet for a bite, the cheese would be oozing out - sooooooooo good! We also split a side of the biscuits and gravy, which was good. The sauce was great, but the biscuit was a bit on the hard and dry side. But still, it had a good taste with the gravy. Anyways, if you're looking for a little family-oriented, hole-in-the-wall spot to check out, I recommend giving them a try.

    Chicken pesto Omelet with hash browns and a pancake

    This place might seem like a whole in the wall but it's where you'll find the absolute best breakfast. Not only do they have the best food they have amazing service as well. Everytime it I go it feels very homey and like its the family diner I grew up in. I love going here and highly recommend you try the pancakes!

    Spur of the moment decision to come here…read more There was plenty of seating and parking (off street and street), so that's definitely a plus. I've been here a few times and there has always been parking available. The inside is pretty small but they also have exterior seating, which on a nice day can absolutely be incredible. Our server was good, maybe on the slower side, but there were only two of them taking care of all the tables. He was friendly, and responsive when we made a request. I had the Philly Cheesesteak which was flavored well. My only complaint was the meat was a little dry. The bread was good but maybe if it was toasted could have elevated it just a bit. The daughter had the shrimp Alfredo. Different story. It was absolutely amazing! They gave 6 fairly descent size shrimp which was cooked well. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the Alfredo sauce was YUMMY! I will definitely go back and order the Alfredo pasta next time. Overall recommend this place.

Unfortunately, my experience was ruined by a serious sanitation issue and the staff's lack of response. There was a group of three men drinking from two mimosa towers who were noticeably intoxicated and being loud. While the noise was annoying, what happened next was completely unacceptable. These men repeatedly went behind a nearby pillar and urinated on the ground just a few feet away from where guests were eating. I brought this to my server's attention and asked him to notify management. He told me that he had informed the manager. When I asked whether anything was going to be done about it, he simply said "no." I was shocked that management apparently chose not to address customers urinating near dining tables. No one should have to eat a meal while people are relieving themselves next to the dining area. Beyond being disgusting, it raises serious concerns about cleanliness, health, and customer safety. The fact that staff and management were aware of the situation and failed to intervene made the experience even worse. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this level of disregard for basic sanitation and guest comfort is unacceptable. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and ensures that future guests do not have to experience what I did.

We were given menus right after being seated and the waitress came back a few minutes later. I'd say service was friendly and the food came out pretty fast. This is what we ordered: * Organic beet salad with ranch dressing, $13 - delicious and refreshing salad with romaine, sliced beets, avocado chunks, grape tomatoes, nuts, sliced red onions, and feta cheese. I chose ranch and thought it paired well with the salad. * Fish and chips, $16.95 - 5 crispy battered cod (tasted like cod to me) pieces with plenty of French fries and a side of tartar sauce and lemon wedges. My mom liked how the batter was thin and crispy. The fish pieces were a little smaller than my hands. * Very berry waffle, $15.95 - soft waffle with blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries dusted with powdered sugar and came with syrup on the side. The berries were sweet and the waffle was very tasty with syrup on top. * Sweet potato fries, $5.95 - crispy outside and soft inside. I love sweet potato fries and theirs were delicious. I ate it with ketchup, ranch, hot sauce, and tartar sauce. The portions were pretty big so my mom and I split everything. We ended up taking some fries home. The reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is because I found a hair in one of the containers of ranch that came with the salad, I thought the fries tasted a bit stale and dry when they were cold, and I wish the waffle came with butter and wish it was a little more crispy. Overall, I did enjoy my lunch here and my mom and I would come back! I'd try one of the omelettes next time.
