    We had heard about Taco Tuesday here from some friends, so we finally went to try it out. At $2.50 per taco, they are definitely good value. I ate three and my wife had two, and we were good to go. Both the beef and the chicken are good. Salsa was very good as well. We won't be coming back here regularly, but it was fun to try.

    Menudo was delicious
    Rick O.

    First time to this location. They have another location in Upland. To be honest I like this location. It's more homey and feels like an old cafe. (The other place is an old Mimi's, bigger and has a bar. We went to watch a Dodgers game and just had appetizers.)I have a different review for that location. I had the Menudo and I ordered a large bowl, to be honest I probably could have ordered a regular bowl because there's so much meat inside and the large bowl was a bit too much, but no worries, I didn't waste any! Lol. I ordered Menudo for comparison to both locations and I think the Menudo is better at this location. No offense to the cooks at the other location. The service was great! Fast and friendly. They have counter seats as well as booth and tables. It's located the back of shopping center and there's plenty of parking. The menu is pretty good with many different types of food to order. I will have to come back, to either location, to try out something else. I know that they have different locations but I think they are still a family small business doing well to have multiple locations in the same area. Please support small support small businesses and I thank you for your time to read my message. Please be kind and enjoy.

    Meat lovers Breakfast Burrito!  Amazing!

    This location in Rancho never disappoints. My server Stephanie is awesome! Very attentive. My breakfast burrito was great! Very clean restroom. Very clean restaurant. Love my RC Brandon's Diner!

    Taco plate

    I got the eight dollar taco plate. It was enough. It was really good Why you didn't get five stars , you shouldn't have charged us extra for pico de gallo. That was a little offset to me.

    If you're hungry, you can add many different sides. The sausage are a decent size and not the whimpy ones.

    One of my favorite spots for breakfast. Kind of a creatures of habit, so I will usually get their French toast. I tried their cinnamon revolution French toast, but that wasn't as moist so I went back to the traditional. We also like to come for their taco Tuesdays. Only a few bucks per taco, the hard shell tacos just like my mom used to make us as a kid. Customer service is usually pretty good. Wait times aren't too long. The restaurant was remodeled a few years ago but looks like a mom and pop diner.

    The tacos are the best !! However, I was truly disappointed when I was charged for a glass a water. Not bottled. This is the first time I ever order water. Is this even legal ?? I was so disappointed. I always tip at least 20% so those .60 could have gone to my soon to be Mother- Faith who is pleasant with great service. It's just the point- SMH

    Liver and onions, the matador and a kids combo
    Crystal C.

    My husbands face when I said I wanted Brandon's for dinner was priceless- but by the end of our meal we were excited for our next visit. I read about the liver and onions in a local group and was intrigued, they were delicious!!! The portion was generous and we both had a box of leftovers for tomorrow.

They also have a gender-neutral restroom. Overall, it's a great casual spot with fresh, tasty food and a relaxed atmosphere. Definitely one of our favorite places for a quick breakfast or brunch in Rancho Cucamonga.

I ordered a diced ham scramble with homestyle potatoes. The ham in the photo looked sautéed with some char, but in person it tasted more parboiled/warmed than actually cooked on the grill. The potatoes had an odd enchilada-style seasoning and were inconsistent, some were cold and chewy while others tasted fresh. A second dish we ordered came with hash browns, they were dry and underseasoned. The biscuits tasted more like sheet-pan biscuits than homemade. We also tried the "famous" coffee cake (lemon poppyseed flavor that day), but it was extremely tart to the point it made your mouth pucker. For $53 for 2 entrées at a diner breakfast, we expected much better quality and freshness. The concept has a lot of potential, but overall it felt overpriced and underwhelming.

It's so crispy and the French Toast which is also made from the brioche. The bakery is right next to door and the reason their bread is so fresh and delicious. On nice days, they'll have a couple tables outside but the seating is primarily inside. I'll definitely order the kimchi fried rice next time. I tried some when my husband ordered it and it was so good.
