    My husband and I came in for some country fried steak. Our plates come with the steak, hash browns, eggs, and choice of toast or biscuits and gravy. We both agreed that both the steak and gravy were lacking flavor. Also the steak was very tough and chewy. My over easy eggs were a little over cooked, but hash browns were nice and crispy. We found ourselves adding salt, pepper, ketchup, hot sauce...I mean whatever it needed to give it some flavor. Unfortunately, food was a miss today. BUT service was very good. Spencer was great. Very attentive and I don't care what some of the other reviews said.. His music choice was a whole ass vibe and it definitely helped make the meal not as bad. We might come back. Who knows. But we'll definitely not be ordering the country fried steak.

    Half Tuna Melt Sandwich + The Best Onion Rings
    Michele O.

    I love to treat myself to an All-American diner! Crazy Otto's has delicious food. My husband ordered a mushroom burger, and added bacon to go with it. He had a side of homemade chips and Boom. Delicious! I ordered the half and half because I can never make up my mind. A half tuna and half chicken sandwich with the most incredible onion rings. It made my heart so happy. Everything was fresh. Exactly what I expected. Service was excellent. I bet it's worth coming for breakfast! Can't wait!!

    Strawberry Stuffed French Toast / Bacon / Eggs

    This was on my list to try for local eats in SCV. I love breakfast and diner places do this was a place to check out. The inside is a mix of retro decor but in a strip mall space. I didn't mind tho. It had its own charm. The food was pretty good too. The French Toast and 2 egg plate was great and good portion. Bacon was cooked perfectly which is important. I don't like that uncooked fat. Service was friendly and felt like local spot.

    There's no difference if you pay cash or card unless you tell them pretty tricky

    Gave this one more chance Came here for breakfast and ordered two simple items. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with the portion sizes for the price. I also ordered an orange juice and water. The orange juice was not freshly squeezed and tasted like it was from concentrate almost a cardboard-like flavor. I try to support small businesses, and I've been to the AV location before and was never disappointed, which makes this visit even more frustrating. I'm not sure what happened this time, but they definitely missed the mark. To make matters worse, there's a sign stating you get 4% off when paying with cash. I paid with a $100 bill and was still charged as if I paid with a debit card. Why put something in writing if it's not going to be honored? For the price and quality, there are much better breakfast options in Santa Clarita, like Nelly's Café or Eggs & Things.

    Club Sandwich

    Service was great and food was even better! Will definitely come back. I had the club sandwhich

    Our kiddo's wanted a good meal before we went to Six Flags and our hotel front desk person told us about this place and it did not disappoint. There were so many options to choose from and a variety for the kids to enjoy which was helpful. Everything came out in a timely manner, the waitresses were so nice and good with our group, we had a lot of kiddo's and she was soo patient with them. Everything was cooked well, the eggs were runny like they were supposed to be, nothing was burnt, and overall we had a great breakfast.

    Source of life. Or at least awakeness. Coffee.

    I was a little hesitant to try this location of Crazy Otto's as a couple years back we had been to one in Lancaster, and it was terrible. BUT, in my personal goal to eat at all the breakfast places in Santa Clarita, AND the nice email they sent me offering free pancakes for my birthday, I thought, okay, why not? So I packed my wife and son in the car and we drove to this Valencia location. We had a much better experience than in Lancaster. It's in a strip mall so overall the experience is a bit less "crazy" than the standalone structure of the other place...It's much cleaner inside, with bright colors and a spacious atmosphere. The person who seated us didn't seem particularly happy to be there or to be interacting with other humans, so we were awfully glad when another person became our server he was super friendly and a man experienced with the ins and outs of the eggs he served. A whole conversation about eggs and the various types available, even the obscure ones ensued. He knew what he was talking about and seemed happy to talk with us about them. Apparently I was the the first person ever at this location to come in with the birthday offer so that through him off for a bit and he had to double check the email I was sent on my phone. All good. Free pancakes ensued! I had the Pumpkin Pancakes...why not...it was seasonal and I already know what regular pancakes taste like. They came topped with apple pie style cooked apples...it tasted good though I think I would rather have put butter and maple syrup on it so I wish I had known the pumpkin pancakes came with the apples on it by default. My wife had an omelete and hasbrowns...It was quite a generous portion and was cooked perfectly, even the hashbrowns which can be hit or miss sometimes at breakfast places. Our son really enjoyed the breakfast burrito he ordered (no meat)...it was also huge and he was able to talk half of it home for another meal. The coffee was a dud, though. Not the worst I've had but not as strong as I wanted it to be. There's some kind of weird national default for diner coffee where it's a step or 2 above browned water. This was on the upper end of that but still kind of thin. Anyway, we all really enjoyed what we got and especially interacting with our server. And thanks so much, Crazy Otto's for the free pancakes!

    Tot-chos special!! Only finished half!
    Paula T.

    What a wonderful place to visit! A+ rating on the welcoming staff and great service! The crew worked together to keep coffee filled up and check on us! The menu options and the specials all looked so go that we will have to come back the next time we are in this area! Also, the server was very accommodating with my husband's keto substitutions. All in all, we were seated quickly, food arrived immediately and the bill did not break the bank! Two entrees and two coffees came to $52.

    Everything in a stir fry. Amazing.

    Don't come to Crazy Otto's if you're not hungry. Come to Crazy Otto's if you like to start the day with a good hearty breakfast. My go to in Santa Clarita. The staff is great and the food, especially the biscuits and gravy are awesome.

While we were looking at the menu outside, there was an employee standing by the entrance, but we were never greeted or informed that there was a waitlist for dine-in seating. Since we've always ordered at the register and then found a table after, we did the same thing as usual. While I was placing our order, my sister sat at an empty table and was told to leave because there was an hour waitlist. We were genuinely confused b/c we had no idea there was a waitlist, and of course we immediately apologized & left the table. We felt terrible and offered to switch our order to takeout to avoid any inconveniences, the employee remained dismissive and rude throughout our interaction. I'm not sure if she thought we did it on purpose, but she took off with an attitude. We understand it's busy, it could be frustrating and stressful, but that interaction wasn't necessary, it was a clear misunderstanding and we asked switched to take out to avoid issues or taking someone else's spot. We also noticed other customers making the same mistake, which made it seem like the seating process wasn't clearly communicated. A simple greeting or letting customers know there was a waitlist before ordering would have completely avoided the misunderstanding instead being dismissive. I also don't recall seeing "please wait to be seated" sign or I'm not sure if we missed it ? Despite this experience, we still plan on coming back b/c we truly enjoy the food and the cafe itself. They do have great service, they did not give us any issues changing the order to take out. They understood it was a misunderstanding of the seating. It could have just been a bad day for that specific employee that was rude , but we just hope there can be better communication for customers in the future.

The place has limited indoor seating and some outdoor seating. It's small and attracts a crowd for breakfast and brunch so there can be a bit of a wait. The decor inside is really cute. You order in the front and then find seating. They don't take your order at the table. Very big menu with lots of food options and drinks. Definitely a new go to for me.

We ordered the Flying Fried sandwich, avocado toast, and waffles with eggs. The "Fly Sauce" tasted like a basic spicy mayo, the eggs were dry, the brioche bun was dry as well, and the waffles tasted stale. The avocado toast was probably the biggest disappointment; it just wasn't enjoyable at all. I always try to give places the benefit of the doubt, but for the price point, the quality simply wasn't there. Nothing tasted fresh or memorable, and we left feeling underwhelmed. Based on our experience, I don't see what makes this place stand out in a city with so many breakfast options. On the positive side, the staff was kind and welcoming, which is why I'm giving credit where it's due. Maybe we caught them on an off day, but unfortunately, the food was very mediocre.

It seemed as though there were about 10-12 tables inside, and all the employees work with one another to wait on the tables. We showed up around 10:45am on a Saturday morning, and to our surprise there was no wait. We were sat immediately and ordered a cappuccino and Arnold Palmer to drink. Then, I ordered the Salmon Benny with home potatoes, while my partner ordered the Churro waffle combo. It did take about half an hour to get our food, but it was well worth how fresh everything tasted. My salmon benny came on an everything bagel with cream cheese, and the salmon was served cold (in a delicious/ good way, not like it was frozen. I just wanted to make a note of this because usually when eating a salmon benedict the salmon gets warm from the temperature of the english muffin and egg). Then, the home potatoes had onions, and bell peppers and I kept commenting on how fresh the bell peppers tasted. My partner had the churro waffle with eggs, sausage and bacon. They really nailed the churro flavor of the waffle. Both our plates were completely devoured with no leftovers to take home. For our two drinks, two entrees (and the added combo to the churro waffle) it ended up being $53, which we found to be extremely reasonable for the quality, portion size, and service provided. The only thing I would mention was the parking lot gets a little crowded. They share a parking lot with the other stores in the plaza, and there were several spots open only because there were a lot of bigger cars who were over the line. No fault to the restaurant itself, just something to be aware of.
