We're back again for breakfast. The customer service is excellent and the food is delicious, taste like homemade.We ordered a Frittata omelette with fruit and a colossal half pound cheeseburger with fries.We have been coming to this establishment for decades. The ambience is nicely decorated with plenty of booths and tables and Counter to sit down and enjoy your meal there's plenty to choose from the menu breakfast lunch, and dinner.

This place is great for the local regulars. I sat at the counter and listened to my Server greet everyone as they came in. Took the time to have a conversation with them as I waited to place my order. Food was standard diner food... no bells and whistles. Coffee was good. The parking lot does get crowded on Sunday mornings. I believe the Owner was also helpful and pleasant to hear as she manned the food coming out of the window and spoke with customers coming in. Not sure I will return, but that doesn't mean YOU shouldn't give it a try. Respectfully Reviewed.

Patty melt
Paulina G.

I always come here during the weekend for their breakfast, but today was the first time I was able to order from their entree menu since I arrived after 11am. I ordered the Patty melt with the side of French fries (you can select fries, coleslaw or fresh fruit). We also ordered the Salisbury steak with the side of chicken soup and garlic bread. The food was delicious, my patty melt and fries were a bit oily, but it's fried food so it's to be expected. The Salisbury steak and mashed potatoes had a good flavor. Even though it was busy we were promptly attended to and had plenty of water and coffee refills. If you order breakfast make sure to ask for a side of salsa!

1/26/25 Another local favorite patronized, will DEFINITELY return, good grub & excellent service! Not feeling like cooking today as I am feeling lazy & Hubby is not going to cook either. Hubby actually chose this local restaurant. When I say local, we could've worked up an appetite & walked. Surprisingly at 11 am on a Sunday with a n almost full parking lot, we were immediately seated upon entry. Drinks were offered ASAP, friendly busboy. Within minutes, Lorena, our server graciously welcomed us with a very friendly smile. Loving this place already! Ambiance is warm, clean, diner style, comfortable with booths, tables & counter service. The staff are all busy bees & the servers in particular are running on crack (okay by crack, I mean coffee/caffeine but in a wonderful way). I feel very much welcomed like a regular & like family. My coffee arrived promptly along with Hubby's Diet Coke as Lorena took our orders: Hubby's Machaca w/ beans & rice, for me blueberry pancakes, 2 over medium eggs & 2 strips of crispy bacon. I took more photos & when I returned, our food was ready! Just like that! WowZaH, fast & friendly-what more could you ask for... well the lady (owner/manager) up front could use more of that crack the servers are on!, maybe a little smile on her beautiful face certainly couldn't hurt. My food was delicious! The pancakes in particular are soft, fluffy with a delicate chew, plenty of blueberries folded in (no powdered sugar as I requested), perfectly over medium eggs, bacon is delightfully crispy. Hubby was not as impressed with his Machaca, he said it was not seasoned well enough, but he polished off his entire plate (and usually he does not eat the beans). My coffee was decent and I had about 3-4 cups (one I tried black) Overall, will surely return to try other items in the menu, Lorena said we will definitely be regulars soon enough. She was right from the get go. Now that confidence! I like her! Plenty of parking, restrooms are clean. Glad Hubby found this spot

Delightful biscuits and gravy!

Excellent place for chisme with the bestie. Bobbi, our server was just lovely. She was so kind and attentive. Inside is classic old school diner vibes. Long counter, very 70s or early 80s type styling. My pancakes? Perfectly fluffy. The Hashbrowns, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and well seasoned. My friend had the biscuits and gravy and graciously let me have a bite.; 10/10 no notes!

One egg & bacon. Served with homestyle potatoes and one slice toast. Took the pic after I started eating!!!
Adriana S.

Local restaurant open for breakfast and lunch. We have only had breakfast there. The restaurant is always crowded which is a good sign. The good news is there is plenty of seating so we never have waited mute than a few minutes. A wide variety of menu items to choose from. I had a meal from the smaller appetite options. One egg, two slices of bacon, home style potatoes, and I slice of toast. All for about $10. The egg was cooked as I requested, and the bacon was perfectly crisp. The potatoes were a bit bland and very soft. Could have used higher flame when cooking to crisp them up a bit. Maybe I'll order hash browns next time. Service was quick and efficient.

Stuffed French toast and pancakes with bacon and eggs
Adriana L.

We have been here two times and it's our favorite local restaurant. The customer service is outstanding. The waitress Bobbie kept checking on us. I had the breakfast burrito. It was big and very tasty. The other time I was there, I had the pancakes, which were the best pancakes I ever had, buttey and fluffy; it came with bacon and eggs. My husband had the steak and eggs and he enjoyed them. We will definitely return often. On the weekdays you get served quickly on the weekend. It's quite busy, so be prepared to wait. The ambience is very family friendly. The best part about it is that everything is so clean. It might have a little bit of 90s decor, and it is outdated, but that's the point of cafés. Two thumbs up all around.

Jumbo Breakfast with house fries.
Julian D.

I've eaten here twice and had a good experience both times. The food was decent and so was the customer service. The restaurant was clean and comfy. I like the little aquarium and mini pond at the front. I don't have much else to add but I have no complaints.

Jumbo Breakfast, Ortega chili w/ white American cheese omelet. Asked for crispy hash browns and boy did they deliver!!
Jonathan J.

I was in the area for a job and passed this place and it looked cute. Decided to stop in for breakfast and am seriously so glad I did. As you walk up to the front, there's the sound of running water with a little pond full of the cutest critters, some red eared sliders, and some koi. Off to a pretty good start, this was refreshing. Upon entering, you're greeted by the staff in a very large and open setting, it's clean, and very nostalgic which I love. The staff looked happy to be there, lots of smiles and were talking to their guests like family, immediately started to feel at home. We were seated quickly in a nice comfy booth, and started to check out the menu. There's a little bit of something for everyone, but we went with some basics as you can see in the pictures. I liked that the menu had several items for the "less hungry" crowd, which I could very much appreciate. While we were waiting for our food, our server Leti passed by with some chicken noodle soup that the smell reminded me of a very near and dear soup I'd grown with. When I asked her about it, she even brought me a small little bowl to try it!!! That never happens, and it was literally the best I'd had since, so needless to say I brought home a large to-go amount for later. From beginning to end, Leti made us feel so welcomed and comfortable. Her customer service and attitude are out of this world, and for that we will actually be making the occasional drive out there from city of Orange, it was that nice of an experience. Thank you Leti, the staff, and the cooks for delivering such an amazing breakfast experience, we look forward to dining with you in the (not so distant) future.

A friendly local cafe with good food and great service. Everyone is lovely and you get the feeling they truly care for their customers. Usually go for breakfast and everything is made to perfection.

My reservation that I made changed 3 times, only to add more people to our reservation that same day. Never once did they complain or state that they could not accommodate us. Once we all trickled in, it was about 18 people. Our tables were ready. I believe our waitress name was Jude, but nonetheless, she definitely was a jewel. She informed us that they were short staff, but she would take our orders. She accommodated every single one of us, never messing up or mixing up the orders, when ask for extras, she got them out immediately and to add to all of this the food was excellent. If you ever get a chance to stop by Studio Four29 I highly recommend it, not just for the food, but also the service. Bravo to our waitress she was on point. Sorry no pictures, by the time we thought about it, you would've just had pictures of empty plates.

First the restaurant is extremely clean and welcoming. The interior is really nice. The bar and patio are beautiful. The whole place felt welcoming. The staff provided amazing service. Our waiter was Dillon or Dylan. Sorry if I spelled it incorrectly. He was great and gave us some great recommendations. Even when the shift changes were happening the bar tender came by and said bye as well and wished us a great day. It was a small but nice touch and great customer service. Now what we're all really here for the food and drinks. Drink wise we tried the blood orange paloma, a margarita, and some beers which were all delicious and cold. For the food we started with the brisket fries which were savory and delicious. The fries were thin and crispy which is just the way I like them. We also got the All Da Smoke platter which had chicken, brisket, pulled pork, and pork ribs. It came with 3 sides so we got the corn bread with honey butter, corn, and mac and cheese. Everything was perfectly seasoned and tender. We enjoyed every bite we had. Also one of the best Mac N Cheese I have had in a while to be honest. Overall the food, drinks, staff, and ambiance were a perfect 10 out of 10 for me. I can't wait to come back and eat here again. Thank you Dylan and Mule Car Smokehouse for the delicious food and hospitality.

There's no host to seat you, so when I saw a table that looked empty we sat there and were informed by other patrons that it was their table they'd been at the bar ordering drinks. The stools at the high-tops were uncomfortable and it was hot inside. If you're making us run back and fourth for our drinks the least you can do is crank the A/C We didn't end up eating there, even though the food looked amazing. My kids were turned off by the noise of the the people watching the game (that's fine no shade, not a kids place as we realized) but we were prepared to stay, looking at a menu on our phones is what turned us off, scrolling as opposed being able to see and flip through a whole menus was super annoying to us, add to that the face that there were no servers available to ask questions about the menu or the food. I'm willing to go back early on a weekday to try the food, but without the kids to maybe sit at the bar and get actual service. We spent $30 on two beers and 2 sodas

The blue cheese burger I wished were a bit stronger in blue cheese flavor (as a person who loves lots of blue cheese), but the burger was definitely filling for both the eyes and the tummy. The only thing I wished is that the burger didn't feel as heavy/greasy, but if that were the case, I probably wouldn't have chosen a burger. That said, the grease did feel like it took away from the flavors, making the burger tasting milder than I had wanted. That said, it was very enjoyable overall. The dog menu was surprisingly different from what I've seen. It was surprisingly healthy looking with the amount of vegetables they added to my dog's bowl including some Brussels sprouts. There was no rice at all, which was fine for me since my dog doesn't really like rice. Unfortunately, he is so picky, so he picked out the chicken from the vegetables even with me pre-mixing it, and I think the vegetables are too firm to his liking. However, I appreciate the food being healthy and the portions, even if he himself will not really eat most of it. I'm sure some other dog will do a lot better with the bowl!
