5 Stars -- An Amazing Family Celebration After Nora's Baptism…read more We came to Richie's Diner in Rancho Cucamonga after a very special morning for our family, and I honestly cannot say enough good things about the experience. Earlier that morning, our daughter Nora was baptized at Water of Life Church, which was a huge moment for her and for all of us as a family. Afterward, we wanted a place where we could sit down with friends and family, relax, enjoy a good meal, and continue celebrating the day. Richie's Diner ended up being the perfect choice. We had a group of 12, which is not always easy for a restaurant to handle, especially on a day when everyone is excited, hungry, talking, laughing, and trying to keep the kids settled. But Richie's handled it without any issue at all. From the moment we walked in, everything felt organized, welcoming, and comfortable. Nobody made us feel like our group was an inconvenience. That matters. A lot of restaurants can technically seat a bigger party, but not every restaurant actually makes that group feel wanted. Richie's did. The customer service was honestly the highlight of the visit, and Francisco deserves a huge shout-out. He was absolutely amazing with our table. He was attentive, friendly, patient, and had the kind of personality that makes a meal feel more personal. He did not just take orders and disappear. He actually engaged with us. What really stood out was how he took the time to talk WWE with the kids. That may sound like a small thing, but it meant a lot. The kids loved it. They lit up because he was not just treating them like kids sitting at the table; he was treating them like part of the experience. That kind of service cannot be faked. Francisco made the meal more fun and memorable for them, and as a parent, I really appreciate that. The manager, Jimmy Z, also deserves to be recognized. Jimmy always takes good care of us when we come in, and this visit was no different. He has that old-school hospitality that you do not see as much anymore. He pays attention, checks in, and makes you feel like your business actually matters. When he found out we were there celebrating Nora's baptism, he gave her a candy on the house, which was a very sweet gesture. Again, it may sound simple, but those are the moments people remember. Nora felt special, and that was the whole point of the day. Jimmy also gave us some cookies to take home, which was completely unnecessary but very much appreciated. It was thoughtful, generous, and just another example of why we keep coming back. The whole staff did a great job with our group. With 12 people, there are always extra requests, drink refills, kids needing something, people changing their minds, or food coming out at different times. But everything went smoothly. Our waiter took care of us without missing a beat. The food came out hot, the orders were right, and nobody at our table felt forgotten. That is not easy with a larger party, and it says a lot about how well the place is run. Now, the food was excellent too. I had the omelette, and it was perfect. A good omelette sounds simple, but anyone who eats breakfast out knows there is a big difference between an average omelette and one that is actually done right. This one was cooked properly, had great flavor, and hit exactly the way a classic diner breakfast should. It was hearty without being sloppy, and everything tasted fresh. The homemade jelly was another standout. That stuff is amazing. You can tell the difference immediately between basic packaged jelly and something that actually has character and flavor. It added a little something extra to the meal and made the breakfast feel more homemade and special. Those little details are part of what separates a place like Richie's from a generic breakfast spot. My wife ordered the ribeye steak, and it was grilled outside to perfection. The flavor was excellent, and the cook on it was exactly what you hope for when ordering a steak at a diner-style restaurant. It had that grilled flavor, good texture, and was clearly handled with care. Sometimes restaurants treat steak like an afterthought on a breakfast or diner menu, but that was not the case here. Her ribeye was legitimately impressive. Our friend ordered the filet mignon, and that was exceptional as well. It is not every day you go to a diner and hear someone at the table talking about how good the filet mignon is, but that was the case here. It was cooked well, flavorful, and definitely exceeded expectations. Between the omelette, the ribeye, the filet, and the sides, everyone at our table left happy. What I appreciate most about Richie's Diner is that it still feels like a real family restaurant. There is something very traditional and comforting about it. You walk in and it feels like a place where people know how to treat customers. The food is good, the portions are solid, the staff is kind, and management is present. That combination is hard to find.

I've been coming to Richie's frequently lately and each visit has been better than the last!…read more First, each staff member has been very kind and welcoming. You're always greeted warmly upon arrival. The menu is big and everything sounds delicious- it almost makes it hard to choose! This location even has a smoker out front where they are constantly smoking meet; you can smell it when you first get out of the car. I've been here for breakfast and got some delicious pancakes! For meals so far I've had the tri tip sandwich and the grilled sourdough burger. Both had such good flavor! I've been eyeing the desserts menu too- I hear the shakes are to die for!

I honestly saw the prices and saw what people were walking away with... it turned me off. But my husband got a a breakfast burrito and French toast... we got the breakfast burrito and I took a bite. It was good, but definitely not worth the money and the 45 minute wait. Then we waited another 15 minutes... the French toast still hadn't come out. So my husband went to go ask and they said another 20 minutes... okay so one hour for French toast? Then we waited 30 minutes... we needed to leave so we went inside to see where it was at... girl at the counter said another 15 minutes! Like what! So I was mad now at this point. I stood there right in front of the counter making sure they can see me because everyone who ordered French toast after us had gotten theirs, ate theirs, and left already!! So she finally put it in a to go container and just placed it in a bag and threw it on the counter. Didn't even look at us! So you know what! Forget this place. This place is meant to look trendy and take your money! That's it! They have a sign that says "Want better, not more" Yah well we did want better, but we got more bs from another wanna-be brunch spot

My wife and I have been coming to Broken Yolk Cafe almost every Sunday for the last 7-8 weeks, and…read morethis place has honestly become one of our favorite spots. We always sit at the bar, which is perfect because we never really have to wait and we get served almost immediately. We'll order mimosas, breakfast right after church, and just relax and enjoy the whole experience. One of the best parts about sitting at the bar is getting a front-row view of how incredible the team works together. You can see the chefs in the back, the servers in the front, and everyone moving in complete sync. The teamwork, communication, and energy are seriously impressive. Everything runs so smoothly, and you can tell the staff genuinely cares about customer service and creating a great atmosphere. The food is consistently amazing, the drinks are on point, and the vibe is always welcoming. We love being able to enjoy great food while also people-watching and seeing the restaurant operate hands-on. It's actually refreshing to see a team work together this well nowadays. 10/10 experience every single time. Huge respect to the entire staff for the consistency, professionalism, and hospitality. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great breakfast, mimosas, and an all-around great dining experience.

Perfect for avoiding the crowd. I ordered the "Accident #1" which is a Chicken Fried Steak, Gravy, 3 eggs and includes two sides. I chose the Country Potatoes and Homemade Biscuit. Delicious and generous portions. It was everything I was hoping for and left no crumbs behind. The service was warm, friendly and I also loved the retro diner vibe of the place. I left happy with my cravings satisfied!

Saved on Yelp for a year after seeing it on TikTok. The decor is very maximalist and nostalgic, but…read moreunfortunately the inside felt dusty, dingy, and not well maintained once you really looked around. The food also didn't match the menu photos. 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.

The Nashville Sunny's waffle plate was delicious. It came with two spicy Nashville chicken tenders…read moreover a Belgian waffle. The chicken was juicy and crispy with a great kick without overpowering the flavor, and the waffle was soft and fluffy with that perfect sweet and savory combo. We also had the chilaquiles with salsa verde, and those were amazing. The green sauce had really good flavor and the yellow corn chips tasted house-made with a great texture throughout the dish. My wife ordered the Sunny sandwich and that might have been my favorite thing we tried. The house-made brioche bun was incredible, soft and buttery, and the sandwich was packed with bacon, avocado, cheese, house sauce, and perfectly cooked ingredients. The side potatoes were also really good.

To me, that's a sign of him taking pride in his business. Much respect for him. And the girls are super sweet and friendly!!! Definitely will be returning

Ordered the avocado, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwich with potatoes on the side. As I said before, delicious. Side note: I didn't think to take a photo until I was almost done eating. But that is a testament to how good it all was

The newest hotspot for lunch and dinner in Rancho…read moreCucamonga. This place stays busy, the people really seem to enjoy it. For the most part it seems to be a place for an older crowd who wanna get away from the loud sports bars like yard house. I can agree with that sentiment.It is a nice reprieve from the otherwise packed areas of Victoria gardens as it is on the outskirts. The food is delicious and it prides itself on being low in calories. For how good it tastes you would expect a higher price, but that's another reason people like coming here. You don't feel overstuffed and you don't feel like someone robbed you for your wallet. Drinks are on point! The only gripe I have about this restaurant, is the old fashioned!!! They need to get a better cocktail glass for that drink and stop serving it with a bunch of ice. Just get the sphere or cube ice. Please! The staff are always friendly and accommodating!!! From the hosts, bartenders, and waiters/waitresses, they all do a great job at making you feel welcome! Big shoutout to Jasmine, Ashley, and Ron!!! They're great people who go above and beyond to make your visit better than the last. Come try em out for yourself!

I've had good experiences at The State. The food is consistently tasty, drinks are strong, and…read morepricing is fair. Service is typically decent, too. But when The State makes a mistake, that's where it falls apart. Last week, I was handed the wrong debit card. I only noticed after charges from someone else started appearing on my account. I called and spoke to Juan; no follow-up. Called again, spoke to Austin: still no resolution. It's been a week of silence. Meanwhile, I had to cancel my card, wait for a new one, and update all my accounts. This was a major inconvenience, and the restaurant has not shown any care. 1 star for food: still good. 1 star for drinks: always solid. 1 star for atmosphere and standard service. Minus 2 stars for the lack of accountability, poor follow-up, and the time they wasted. They need to improve how they handle mistakes.

Do not order delivery…read more I do not know what it is about ordering delivery but we always get the wrong order. What is even crazier about the experience is that it has the right name each time but the wrong order. We have given this place a try in person, and luckily we get the right order but it is not as good as we were expecting it to be. We ordered our eggs scramble but for some reason it comes sunny side up. (We let it slide). For a burrito to be pretty expensive, we expect our order to be right then we have to wait another 15-20 minutes for a remake. We will be coming back to hopefully give this place a better review based on our experiences. We just want our burritos how we order them.

Just came in. Tried to get a table. I was a party of 4. They said 10 minute wait. Two parties came…read moreafter me that were parties if 2. They wouldn't sit us because we didn't have our 4th. I told them that I would just sit down with 3 of us and cancel the 4th person. They sat both parties of two before me at tables that could accommodate 4. So I left. Whatever the wait time practice they use is ridiculous. I'll go to a restaurant that will actually sit people in the order they come. This was my first time at this restaurant and I will not be back. The one in Rialto is legit though. Go to that one instead.
