Absolute hidden gem of a place. The food quality is exceptional and the service always warm and friendly. I've only had breakfasts here, so the review is for breakfast items only. I'll add more when the lunch/ dinner items have been sampled. Highly recommended. read more

Tried out this place for lunch for the 1st time. It was just okay to be honest. I got a burger and it a decent size but it lacked flavor. Just tasted like a burger you could have made at home. I got the curly fries which were really tasty but i wasn't told they were going to be an up charge. My husband ordered the bacon cheeseburger with onion rings, unfortunately we paid an up charge of 1.99 and we got 5 mini onion rings. We didn't think it was worth it so we sent them back & asked for regular fires instead. He never sends back food so i was shocked. Our server was a young kid who was nice but i must say he needs to learn how to talk appropriately in the customer service field. Bro is not a thing to say to my husband. read more

We were leaving Wrightwood and wanted to grab breakfast before heading back to Orange County. A quick Yelp search led us to this local spot in the town of Phelan, a town I honestly had never even heard of before! From the moment we walked in, we were warmly greeted and seated right away. The restaurant is spotless! Everything was sparkling clean, including the restroom. Service was quick, friendly, and attentive, and the food came out fresh and delicious. If you ever find yourself passing through this town, do yourself a favor and stop here for breakfast. It's a hidden gem worth checking out! read more

Gave it a shot and we weren't disappointed. We ordered a small bowl of menudo which was more than enough. Comes with 3 corn tortillas or flour if you prefer. Also enjoyed the chilaquiles in green sauce. Nice kick. Egg well cooked and the beans are great. Spanish rice is standard, but good. Overall, I have no problem recommending Gisselle's for a good meal, nice family feel and good service. read more

While visiting family in Phelan we stopped by to try a new local spot that was recommended. As soon as we walked through the front door, it felt very welcoming and pleasant. The staff and owner were very friendly and attentive, making sure we enjoyed our experience. The food came out hot and freshed and every night was delicious. The cafe is very family friendly and you people from different backgrounds and cultures coming together for some delicious food. This is our new go to spot for breakfast when in the high desert. Now got to try out their other foods... Lunch trip in the near future... read more

Been meaning to come in here since I moved up to the HD, in March. *Finally* made it! I came in after my visit to LabCorp, right nearby. The atmosphere was nice, the waitress, (Shannon), was great, and the food was good. I had a Greek Omelette, (with one modification), and I loved it! I had to send my home fries back because they weren't, "well done," enough but, that's pretty normal, no matter where I go. (I think the cooks usually think I'm kidding when I say, "burn 'em." I'm not, at least not fully. I want "em *crunchy*.) It was really great that, when I got the I'm back, they *weren't* swimming in oil/grease, which I had expected, since they usually are! The coffee was so good, too! Finally, the *chocolate* ice cream was SOOOOO YUMMY!! Suffice to say, I *will* be back!! Thank you Gisselle's, and Shannon, for a great meal and environment! P.S. The only thing that could have made it a little better, was to have butter over more of the surface of my toast. read more

We are local and have driven by Giselle's Cafe many times going through Phelan. We finally decided to stop in to try the food. Their food was delicious and service was great! The meal was freshly made so it took longer than "fast food" but it was well worth the wait. We will definitely return. One of the owners, Ray introduced himself and he was bussing tables and taking orders along with Shannon, our waitress. read more

Had a very pleasant experience today at Gisselle's for breakfast. The cheese omelet with bacon added and the home fries were delicious and cooked exactly to order. The service was very good as well. In these inflationary times, the price/value ratio was extremely reasonable. Definitely will be putting this little cafe on my frequency list. read more

Staff was very pleasant and restaurant was clean and inviting. I would have given 5 stars but the hashbrowns I had and the French Fries my wife had could have been cooked longer. Over all good experience and would come back. read more

Just had lunch here today with my partner & our 3 kids after visiting the animal sanctuary. We started with mozzarella sticks, side salad, and biscuit with gravy. For mains, we had chicken fried chicken, Philly cheese steak, BLT with avocado, and kids Mac n cheese. And dessert... ice cream!! Everything was so good, and served fast! Bonus points for the cleanliness of the bathrooms too. Ray, thank you for being so friendly & making us feel welcome! read more

It was our first time here and it wont be our last. I had the Chilaquiles plate and it was delicious. My husband had the breakfast chicken skillet with biscuits n gravy dish, yum! The service was amazing, Ray and his son made the visit more welcoming and enjoyable. The ambiance is adorable, they did a great job with the decorations and it was comfortable. We will be back to try several other dishes, so if you are looking for a great place to eat you must try Gisselle's. read more

Great food and friendly service. I highly recommend. This is a great place to take the family to eat.

We made an unexpected stop in Phelan for a 10am breakfast and found Gisselle's right on the main street. We were greeted immediately by a gracious host and lead to a freshly cleaned table. We found the menu full of fine selections, and our order was taken quickly, with piping hot coffee arriving moments later. The vegetable omelet was nicely prepared, and served with fresh pico. Our chicken fried chicken was cooked just right, and the gravy on fresh biscuits was decadent perfection. At each step of the meal we were treated excellently by the fine staff and found the food and drink delicious. I had dined in this location a few years ago, and noted that the Mexican design motif had been brightly updated with crisp whites and loads of fun art. Looking forward to popping back by from Lancaster in the future, for more good times. read more

I've eaten here a few times and can say the food is always very good. We usually get there for an early dinner and had Italian food last time. It was excellent! read more

It's a little mom and pop hole in the wall. Don't blink or you might miss it! The staff (shanon) was super attentive, even though she was the only one working this morning. I eavesdrop on her taking the order with the table next-door and I noticed some things she said that we're super attentive to that person's dietary needs. We ordered the homemade chili omelette with home potatoes and cornbread. Don't judge the food by my pictures my pictures are sucking right now. The chili was super delicious, the eggs were fluffy. My husband ordered a side of bacon that was cooked to my husband's preference, super crispy. I'm still not sure how I feel about the cornbread. It's super flaky and breaks apart easily. However, it has some good flavor. The home potatoes were cooked and seasoned to perfection. I really love the chili. Definitely coming back to try other items on the menu. read more

My son and I stopped in to eat after visiting the anima sanctuary; so glad we did! Ray - one of the owners- was so incredibly friendly, kind and welcoming. We had a hard time deciding what to eat, because the menu has a LOT. I opted for breakfast and he got a burger. Everything was phenomenal. The pancakes were like dessert! Eggs, home fries (added in pepper and onion) were perfect. My son's burger had egg and bacon, and the fries were amazing. We couldn't stop eating. Got the homemade banana bread to go- so glad I did! We'd make the hour drive just to eat here. The place was very clean, so many options, highly recommended! read more

Our family spent the day in Wrightwood at the snow and found this place near by. There were 8 of us in our party so we ordered a variety of things. I had the Chilaquiles, my husband and my daughter had a cheeseburger. We also shared onion rings. Everything was delicious. The service was amazing. The owner and his son were so sweet and made sure we felt at home. Definitely recommend this place if you are in the area. read more

Great food, service and ambiance. I wasn't feeling well, didn't mention it, but out came some toast and a cup of hot tea. They really take care of you there. My husband went there a couple of months ago, spent time talking to the owner. Then months later when we both went he remembered my husband, by name. And took care of me. So polite and pleasant. After I was feeling a little and we ate food was great. As we were he came and pressed a small bag in my hand ( tea, crackers, mints and more toast. read more

I was disappointed by the adult size of their spaghetti . it was like a child portion and they charged extra for the meatballs which were so perfect 1 inch and round and tasteless so they were obviously frozen . If i wanted to eat frozen meatballs I would buy them myself and make them. I make the best sauce and spaghetti meal so they were a huge disappointment to me because their ads said they "make things fresh by hand." I do not believe so from tasting it personally. The cook and cashier was nice but again the food was yet to be desired. I don't think I'll be back to try any thing else there from my experience buying from them a couple of times. read more

The food is really very good, but when the owner is there, he is over-exuberant in greeting and serving his customers. I wouldn't complain, but this includes a handshake when you walk in and then when you walk out. It would be okay at Home Depot, but because he shakes everyone's hand, I don't feel my hand remains clean after my greeting! I'll still go eat there though, because the food is so good. I hope the owner sees this and re-evaluates the handshake read more

I have nothing but good things to say about Gisselle's Cafe. We were greeted at the door by friendly, happy and busy staff. The menu has something for everyone. I had the small menudo which was delicious and plentiful and a side of bean. My brunch companion had breakfast and took half home but say she really liked it. The cost for our meals I thought was fair for what we ordered. Let's support our local businesses. read more
