    Eggs are fluffy well seasoned potatoes and the avocado made it!!
    Liz D.

    Found this little gem near my office. The service was fast and friendly. The prices are good. My burrito was huge!! Very happy with this breakfast.

    One of the best breakfast burritos I have ever had in Rancho. Highly recommended & made fresh once you order it

    One of the best breakfast burrito & highly recommended if you support mom n pops shops

    Breakfast Box. $4.00 Eggs, potatoes, sausage & cheese. What a Deal!

    Food was great, service is friendly, price is extremely low. 2 tables and a counter inside. 3 tables outside.

    Try the Chicken Bacon Ranch, It's Awesome

    Since I found this tucked away Gold Mine, we have gone back every Tuesday to enjoy the food at Francos Cafe. So many things to choose from. Just had the Chicken Tenders and Fries, one of my favorites. This Mom and Pop shop serves Breakfast and Lunch items. They have a Breakfast special starting out at $3.70. Their breakfast burritos are packed, the Chicken Sandwiches are gigantic. Very big!!!! They have salads also. Opened Monday thru Friday. it's a great choice. Off Hwy 50 at Zinfandel exit. Everything is so tasty. Seating inside and outside. Great prices and very friendly owners. Give it a try!!!! It also has Hamburgers and Hot Dogs!

    Bella Bru Cafe Review August 02, 2026…read more Came in around 1:50 PM on a weekend. There was no greeting, not even a simple "hi." It had a very "figure it out yourself" kind of atmosphere. We let that slide and eventually found the printed menu ourselves. The menu clearly stated that breakfast is served until 2 PM, but we were told the breakfast kitchen had already closed early. There was no sign or notice saying this. We only found out from the cashier, who seemed only half attentive. She was still chatting with a coworker while finishing the order of the couple ahead of us and seemed more focused on the conversation than on customers. I ordered the tuna melt. The butter on the grilled white bread left an old, stale aftertaste that I had to wash down with their drip coffee. The sandwich was also poorly balanced. Instead of slicing the avocado properly, they stuffed what looked like half an avocado into it, leaving me with a bulging sandwich that had more avocado than tuna. Compared to a tuna sandwich from Quiznos or Subway at about half the price, this felt like a rip-off. Unfortunately, we still gave them another chance and ordered a slice of carrot cake. We noticed that several customers who ordered after us received their cake much sooner, even though all the server had to do was slice it from the display. Our order was served last, despite being one of the simplest. Overall, the food was overpriced, the service was inattentive, and the experience left a lot to be desired. We won't be coming back.

Unfortunately, we left wondering how it has such a high rating. I ordered the Country Scramble. The potatoes seemed boiled rather than fried and were very soft and mushy. That made the entire scramble watery and mushy as well. On the positive side, the sourdough toast was good. The biggest issue, though, was the cleanliness. In the bathroom, I saw three dead cockroaches and what appeared to be rat droppings around the edges of the floor. That was extremely unpleasant and honestly made it difficult to feel comfortable eating there.

I work in the same Business Park so I already knew their food was great from eating there for lunch, but they truly impressed me as an event venue. The planning process was easy, and the staff member who helped me was incredibly accommodating and made sure everything was tailored exactly how I wanted it. They had options for not only food dishes, but also tablecloths, plates, flatware, drinks, etc. When I arrived, everything was already set up and they even offered help as I added my own decorations. During the event, they kept everything running smoothly, clearing plates, serving the food on schedule, and taking care of guests. When it was over, I simply packed up my stuff and left. They handled cleanup and had even packaged up all the leftovers for me. The food was fantastic, and the pricing was very reasonable. They made the entire event feel effortless, which allowed me to actually enjoy the day. Highly recommend for any special event!

What a surprise! I arrived around 10:30 and was the only client there. The office building itself seemed quite empty of tenants too. Not sure of what was going on in the building. The security guard was very nice and escorted me to the restaurant. I was still in time for breakfast. They had a special which I ordered. I thought it took a bit longer than it should have - an omelet and some sausage and a prebaked muffin with coffee that I served myself - but it was all good. They seemed to be working on a lot of catering orders for lunch. A mother and son came in, ordered one meal and shared it. The space is large, open, and bright. It just seemed temporary to me - not like a restaurant wanting to diners but a place to prepare their catering orders and IF a random person suddenly appeared, they could be fed. This is not an area that I frequent and so the likelihood of returning is small - not because the food wasn't tasty or the restaurant itself was unacceptable. It just is out of the way for me and though was good, I was not wowed enough to find my way back for a meal. However, if you are in the area, please check them out. A mom and pop operation that deserves support.
