    This place never disappoints and it's truly the most affordable place to go now! The menu shows $7.99 for a hamburger. 75c to add cheese. We ordered 2 cheeseburgers and 2 fries and they mentioned having a 2 for 1 deal. It ended up being only $15.83! Even cheaper than a plain hamburger on its own. What a deal! They also give you ranch for free! :D

    Now $11.50 for one burrito, that's $23 for 2. When they used to be $8.20 each(look at my photos), then went to $9 which wasn't terrible. But now $11.50. Sooner or later they are gonna price themselves out of customers.

    Just what it advertises! I love this little neighborhood diner. It's always clean, well-staffed and the service is fast. I like that they bring the food to your table. I often order the California Chicken sandwich. It's a generous portion, big enough to split. The bread bowl clam chowder is also great (only available Fridays). No frills, just a clean and consistent restaurant with good food. I'd say it's fantastic.

    Fantastic Cafe Westminster, CA February 1, 2026 Stopped by Fantastic Cafe for the first time today around 10:00 a.m., and it was a very solid experience. I ordered a BLT ($7.99) and added bacon ($3.00), along with a medium soda ($2.99). Everything came out fresh and exactly as expected. The BLT was tasty, well put together, and satisfying--simple diner food done right. With tax, my total came to $15.27, which feels reasonable for the portion and quality. The service was friendly and efficient, and the restaurant itself was clean, bright, and well maintained. There was a good crowd for a Saturday morning, which is usually a great sign, but it didn't feel chaotic or rushed. Nothing over-the-top fancy here--just a classic café that delivers good food, good service, and a comfortable atmosphere. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

    This is My Family' s Favor restaurant for hamburger, pastrami sandwich and best Zucchini fries here over 10 years until now We still stop by here anytime by the way went somewhere pass by here Service good & great food as the price

    The size is MUCH smaller now and the QUALITY is bad!!! ... Hardly any meat.  Just cheese & potatoes!! The price is still $10

    So sad!!! I was craving a breakfast burrito, but knowing I can't eat the whole thing, I asked for it to be cut and wrapped into two. I've bought this before (see previous review) and it WAS delicious!! HOWEVER... today's was less than adequate. (See photo) I heard the lady ahead of me also order breakfast burrito, but she was specifically asking for NO POTATOES!! ...which I thought was kind of extreme, but now, I'm really wondering what she actually got in her burrito because mine was almost ALL cheese & potatoes!!! In addition, the burrito is now very TINY. I probably could have eaten the entire thing now, but I started feeling full and bloated from all the carbs and cheese! If I were to guess, there MAY have been ONE chopped up link sausage in the half I ate, MAX. IDK about the other half that I tossed. I'm going to think twice before coming back and note my PREVIOUS review was FIVE stars and I'm a proud 10-year elite Yelper.

    TL;DR - I'm not sure why the reviews are so negative, this is one of my go-to spots. The interior is a little sad, but the food makes up for it. The staff is always very kind, patient, and helpful. My favorite food from here: fantastic burger breakfast burrito chicken sandwich sweet potato fries chicken tenders I would definitely recommend if you're looking for some fairly cheap fast food that's not too unhealthy!!

It is accessed by either going through the entrance between the 3020 and 3030 buildings and walking through the lobby or you can find the shop's entrance on the backside of the building.

The couple who operate this shop are so friendly and welcoming to their customers. While they make sandwiches and have a wide variety of drinks in a large fridge, they also have many other items (including a freezer full of ice cream bars). It's almost like a deli and mini-mart as they sell sundries like batteries, Q-tips, headache pills, crackers, candy bars, etc. but I had come for a quick lunch. I ordered a pastrami sandwich and grabbed an A&W root beer from the cooler. I sat at one of the indoor tables and my sandwich was ready in mere minutes. The deli pastrami was very tender and flavorful, accompanied by mustard, melted swiss cheese, and pickles. The bread was very fresh. Although the sandwich was on the small side it was very good. Not being quite full, I purchased a Haagen-Dazs bar from the options in their ice cream freezer on the way out, the perfect ending to my lunch on a hot day.

    Bottom Line Up Front: The Crema Cafe is a bakery and…read morerestaurant that will satisfy both your sweet tooth and savory craving -- so long as you don't mind paying a premium. The Food: In the past, I've come only for the dessert, but this review will focus on my most recent visit when my wife and I had brunch here. I ordered the quiche Lorraine, a classic variety that featured ham, cheese, and bacon. It was firm, hearty, and delicious. The wife thought it was a little dry, but then again I like hard boiled eggs and she prefers them runny, so I chalk it up to personal preference. My wife had the breakfast burrito, which was stuffed with all kinds of goodness, including egg, ham, bacon, and chorizo con papa. We both really liked it but thought it had just a hint of sausage. If it was more meaty, it would have been flawless. The Location: It's located on Main Street near the beach, so street parking is extremely limited. I came on a Tuesday morning and didn't have an issue, but lunchtime and weekends are insnae. Visit off peak hours to avoid the traffic jam or a long wait. The Setting: Crema is a medium sized establishment, with about half the space taken up by the bakery line. Fortunately, there's an outdoor seating area with about another 10 tables. Since we brought our dogs, we chose the latter option and enjoyed the shade provided by the umbrellas. Everything is clean and well organized. The Service: The customer service is great. The staff was all polite, friendly, and knowledgeable. The Price: This is really the only con: everything is 10% to 20% more expensive here. I call it the beach tax. Shops along any beach can implement it because people are willing to pay it in order to enjoy the amenities and location. The Conclusion: The Crema Cafe is one of our go-to restaurants for brunch and dessert any time we come to Seal Beach. It's not flawless, but we always leave happy.

However, I had errands to run after work and this was the only coffee shop in the area that was open before 7:30 AM which was perfect for me since I get off work at 7 AM. I got to Arc a little after 7:15 AM and they were slammed with orders (mostly online/phone). I ordered the following: **Goth Latte: Opted to get oat milk but I forgot to adjust my sweetness level. That nutty vanilla flavor with the activated charcoal was amazing. One of the most flavorful lattes I've had by far that isn't too complex. (5/5) **Iced Americano: Solid Americano. It had the perfect balance of acidity which is hard to find these days. (5/5) One thing I'm not a big fan of is how huge the ice cubes are. Also, this place is not ideal for studying because the music is really loud. Parking is quite small but you shouldn't have a problem if you come early in the morning. The service was rushed but very friendly. I can imagine how busy this shop can get during the late morning/afternoon. I would consider ordering online if I decide to come here again after work.

I wasn't asked if I wanted my latte hot or iced (partly my fault for not clarifying), but I ended up with a drink that was mostly ice. With tip included, it was almost a $10 drink, and after just a few sips I honestly didn't feel like it was worth the price. I appreciate supporting local coffee shops, but I think the overall experience matters just as much as the drink itself. I'd probably choose Starbucks next time, where I know I'll get a consistent latte and feel welcomed when I walk in.

    First time at Sunny Side Café. I had driven by this…read morerestaurant countless times. But for some reason i had never really noticed it. I'm not sure why. And then during a Yelp search, I saw the ratings. So, I went in last Friday for a late brunch with my parents and i can definitely say that i was pleasantly surprised. This restaurant is located in a small strip mall at the corner of Westminster Ave and Seal Beach Blvd. in Seal Beach. There is lots of parking out front and there is a handicap ramp leading to the entrance. From the parking lot to the interior of the restaurant, everything is clean with beautiful and simple floral designs. We came in at a down time as it was an hour or 2 prior to closing on a weekday. So, we just about enjoyed the whole restaurant to ourselves. As we walked in, we were greeted with a smile and immediately led to our table. The interior of the restaurant is setup like a country diner with booths and a long breakfast counter with high chairs. Only way more modern with fresh wall colors, rustic wood accents, vibrant tiled floors and large glass windows. It is Cozy and inviting. The old school playlist adds a relaxing touch. I really liked the live edge look-alike design on the tables. The wall of the hallway leading to the restrooms, is covered with really cool kids hand drawings. I thought this was a nice touch. I really like their overall menu which offers something for everyone. (See full menu in attached pictures) I ordered the Ribeye steak and eggs. The steak was tender, the sunny side up eggs were cooked over easy and i asked for the hash brown to be extra crispy. And it also came with 2 slices of toast. It was really good. My Mother got the Greek chicken skewer which is one grilled chicken skewer with grilled onions and bell peppers on a bed of garlic butter rice, a side of Tzatziki and a greek salad. My mother ate it all, i had a taste of it. It was delicious. My father was not hungry so he just had a latté. We all had a latté. They also have an orange juicer for fresh squeezed OJ and a pastry case. That day, they had some really fresh looking Almond croissants. Overall, we had a very good first time experience. Gioia, our server, who could have been the manager for all i know, was so kind, welcoming and accommodating. Which made our experience even better. I will definitely be coming back.

Had seen this place for years but thanks to Yelp I finally checked it out! The interior is cute, the lighting is inviting, the staff is helpful, there was artwork form the kids who visit posted all over the walls, and fresh flowers at each table. 10/10!

The location has plenty of parking and plenty of seating. There is an outdoor patio, and inside there is a first floor seating area, and a second floor seating area. The interior had high ceilings and modern practical decor. Staff will take your order at the cashier, but they also have a kiosk if you want to avoid human interaction. I was here for a few hours, so I started off with a hot beverage since I saw that they have mug service. I had the hot Churro Latte ($8.15/large) and I was warned it's a bit sweet so staff suggested that I get it less sweet. I appreciated the gesture but maybe that's why I didn't taste too much of the churro flavor. It tasted like a good regular latte but maybe they held back on the caramel and cinnamon to the point I couldn't detect it. Seating is first come first serve. It was actually really busy and difficult to find an ideal spot. Since I was alone I sat at a high top ledge, strategically near an outlet. From what I saw, they had a really good amount of outlets in the indoor seating area. Later on I went back and ordered an iced Blueberry Lavender Matcha with Cold Foam ($9.25/large) and a Deluxe Avocado Toast ($15) which comes with egg, bacon, and herb oil. I like that this location serves the avocado toast with a knife and fork cause it was much needed. It was a bit on the wet side. Maybe I should ask for light herb oil next time. For how much this avocado toast cost, I would have liked more avocado. The avocado was more of a spread, not whole slices of avocado. Still good, just an observation. The blueberry lavender matcha was okay. I could taste the lavender but it was overpowering the matcha and the blueberry was hard to detect at all. Honestly the location and plentiful seatings is what stood out most from this experience. I would consider coming back since I know their products are good from trying their other locations but I wouldn't get the drinks I ordered this time. For how expensive coming here was, I wish I was a little more satisfied.

I love the decor and setup. They have a good amount of seating. It wasn't busy when we visited around 16:00, but they did have a dinner rush later on. They also offer live music during dinner! Service: Everyone we encountered was courteous, quick, & efficient. We were checked on multiple times, and throughput was quick after ordering. Food & drinks: They offer a brunch menu, happy hour menu, and dinner menu. Unfortunately, they do not have a full lunch menu. 1) French Toast Latte - I'm a crackhead for caffeine, so of course I ordered a latte instead of a cocktail lol. I enjoyed this latte! It surprisingly wasn't too sweet. It had a good balance of coffee to sweetener ratio. 2) Great American Cheeseburger - My friend and I ordered this from the Sunset Hour menu. The burger was good and tasted as expected. 3) Fries - Since the burger didn't come with fries, I ordered some on the side. They were shoe string fries topped with shredded cheese. The fries were also good. Pricing: I can only speak on their Sunset Hour menu. The prices were very cheap. The cocktails weren't discounted since they were the same price. The Sunset Menu wasn't anything out the ordinary. The food did the job and tasted good. Will comeback to try their other lattes!
