    Tuna melt Sandwich
    Nikkomae S.

    So this place is at the Paso Robles Airport and when you enter it has a very open space with high ceilings with a big window showing private planes on the tarmac. The restaurant is to the left of the building. I will say that upon entering the restaurant it appears to be a bit tight. They have bar sitting to the left and dine in to the right. We got seated right away and gotten our drink orders immediately. We ordered a couple of things: Tuna melt sandwich (3/5)- the tuna melt was so salty. That's pretty much all I can remember from this sandwich. Hamburger with Bacon- I mean it's like any other burger. Tri-tip sandwich with chili soup (5/5)- this is the second time my aunt has ordered this email and she said it is really good. Veggie omelette (5/5)- Another good meal. I gave them a 4 star cause the tuna sandwich was extremely salty and I love salty food and plus our server kept on forgetting that we ask her for water or a refill and another server would have to tend to our table. It is a nice restaurant with cool views and decent food.

    Bacon, eggs, hash browns

    Joe's One-Niner Diner in Paso Robles has a great view of the airport action and a charming vibe--perfect for aviation fans. The breakfast is outstanding, with delicious pancakes and tasty hash browns and super friendly service every time. I stop here anytime I'm in the area!

    Always a great meal. Quick service and food is made quickly. Nice to see the aircraft coming and going from your table.

    Pancake

    I got the Loraine omelette & substituted a pancake for the toast. They were both delicious! The omelette was very tasty & the bacon pieces in it were thick. The pancake was very good as well. The service was excellent! My husband enjoyed his egg & sausage meal & loved the home baked toast. We will be returning!!

    Menu: breakfast

    Fantastic diner hidden out in Paso at the airport. Classic dishes. Would recommend coming for breakfast. The wait is sometimes long, especially for large groups, but that tells you how popular it is. Omelets are my main go-to but this time tried the chilaquiles and was not disappointed. Big portion, good balance of spicy flavor, love the crispy chips.

    After a morning of wine tasting in Paso Robles, I wanted a good, hearty lunch. Came across this place online and had a feeling it would be exactly what I was hoping. We arrived to the Paso Robles airport and easily found Joe's One-Niner Diner. We walked in and it was exactly as anticipated; full of locals and very home-y. We sat next to the window which gave amazing views of this tiny airport on a beautiful sunny day. Everything on the menu sounded great. I went with the chicken-fried steak, which the server (who was sooo sweet!) assured me would be a great choice. My fiance ordered the tri-tip sandwich. After enjoying the view for a few minutes, our food arrived. My chicken fried steak was topped with a beautiful amount of gravy, just as I'd hoped. It came with a hefty serving of hash brown, eggs (I got scrambled), and an english muffin. First, I dug into the hash brown. Omg, best hash brown I've ever had!! They were super hot, cooked perfectly, and has a thin crispy layer on top. Next, the eggs, solid. I finally started my chicken-fried steak which was perfection. The gravy was tasty and the steak was perfectly crispy on the outside with just the right amount of tender meat inside. Amazing! My fiance also loved his tri-tip sandwich. If we're ever in the area again, we'd happy come back to Joe's One-Niner Diner.

    Everything is amazing got little of everything and service was awesome . Thank you Vicky you're the best.

    What a great surprise! I am a pilot and I flew into Paso Robles looking forward to eating at this resturant. It's right on the airport so if you are a pilot you walk right off transit parking to the place! For non aviation people, it's a PERFECT place to watch views of the planes taking off and landing. Food : I got the tri tip Chilla Quiles and my dad made his own omelette. IT WAS VERY DELICIOUS. The chillequiles was the best I've ever had Service: service was okay, didn't refil waters or anything and I had to go up for the bill hence the 4 stars Overall: would definitely come back just for the tri tip breakfast !

    I deliver jet fuel here on occasion.. I always look forward to coming in and getting a bite..always friendly warm service with a smile and the food is exceptional as well.. If you are in the area I highly recommend you stop in and grab a bite and feel the warmth of the service..

When we arrived there was already a line, so clearly we weren't the only ones with the same idea! We only needed a table for two, and Cameron at the host stand was so sweet. She gave us the option of taking a table near the front right away or waiting for something a little quieter. We were hungry and ready to eat, so we happily took the first table. Thanks, Cameron, for getting us in! Our server Rosie was great. The first thing I asked for was orange juice, and she warned me they might be out but said she would check. Somehow I lucked out and got the last of it! Fresh squeezed, cold and absolutely delicious. Everything on the menu sounded good, and I seriously considered going the French toast route, but I spotted someone nearby eating the breakfast burrito and that made my decision for me. I kept it simple and ordered the breakfast burrito, and it was exactly what I wanted. Filling, flavorful and just really good. My partner ordered the biscuits and gravy with potatoes and loved it, especially that gravy. She liked it enough to ask for more! She also had a mimosa that she really enjoyed. Brunch. has that busy, casual neighborhood feel where people seem genuinely happy to be there. Nothing overly complicated, just really good breakfast food and friendly service. We would absolutely come back. Next time, I may finally have to try that French toast!

We had enough time to walk around the local park and got a call in only 12 minutes. Not bad at all! Brightly lit, clean, comfortable seating with throw pillows to use on the bench! Attentive servers checked on us every 5-10 minutes! We ordered the chilaquiles with avocado (should've added chorizo too), and the brunch hash (shredded pork shoulder with carrots and sweet potatoes and fried eggs on top). Appreciated the selection of hot sauces including our favorite Cholula on the table. Our entrees could've used more flavor/seasoning overall. The green salsa on the chilaquiles was mainly sour. The carrots and sweet potatoes on the hash made them predominantly sweet with a touch of zing from the jalapeños. A better balance of flavors would make the meal more memorable.

We ordered the veggie omelet, veggie scrambled eggs, pancakes, French toast, and the kids pancake with bacon. Each entrée came with a choice of toast or an English muffin. One thing that really stood out was that, without us even asking, the staff split the dishes onto separate plates for everyone at the table. It was such a thoughtful gesture and made sharing so much easier. The veggie scrambled eggs were loaded with fresh vegetables, and the salsa added a great burst of flavor. I personally preferred the hash browns, they were perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The breakfast potatoes were also good, and the rest of my family actually liked those more. The pancake was huge and fluffy, and the French toast was finished with a dusting of powdered sugar. The kids pancake came in the shape of Mickey Mouse, which absolutely made my son's day.

On this day, I was getting one of the cars detailed at Sunset North and decided to swing by Cowgirl Cafe for a slow and relaxed breakfast. Not my first rodeo here at Cowgirl. There is a very "Paso motif" call it western. It's open and inviting. ay be crowded on weekends, but this was a Wednesday morning and sleepy Paso was still sleeping. I took a seat at a booth and was immediately asked if I wanted to start my morning with coffee. Everything on the breakfast menu is good. I can't speak for the other meals, as this is one of the spots I frequent. Last visit for breakfast it was biscuits and gravy with a side of bacon. Portions are well sized and you won't leave hungry. The staff is fun loving and attentive and they know their regulars when they come in. That's part of the allure of a small community, where everyone seems to know everyone. My coffee cup was never empty, always coming around, asking if I wanted a refill. Located just half a block off 13th Street on Pine Street, you will find this wonderful cafe. Good people. Good food. Recommend this as your breakfast stop!

    Before we get into the meat & potatoes of this review, let me get something off my chest…read more I am ONE HUNDRED PERCENT not anywhere close to being a Cowboy, but I'll be damned if watching shows like Yellowstone on Paramount+ make me think twice about my life choices. I mean... Riding a horse on the open plains.... Wearing Levi jeans, a flannel shirt, with a big cowboy hat, a pair of cowboy boots, and rocking that big belt buckle sounds pretty cool to me. But being a Cowboy or a Cowgirl for that matter is more than just the catchy attire, it's a Lifestyle! Rooted in hard physical labor, long days, loyalty, deep respect and responsibility for the land and herding cattle are just some of the core values and responsibilities of being a true Cowboy/Cowgirl. Hell, I might not be a Cowboy, Yet... But I sure do respect the Lifestyle they live and for now, you can find me on the sidelines rocking out to my favorite country and Western artists: Morgan Wallen, George Straight, Garth Brooks and of course my Girls Reba, Lainey Wilson and Carrie Underwood. Heck, All I need now is my Cowboy Hat & Boots, Well, I suppose I should get a horse too ;) ------------------------ Now, Saddle up Partner, let's get this review on the road. It's time to EAT like a Cowboy and be where every Cowboy wants to be.... Cowgirl Cafe Enters the Chat! Yes, Every Cowboy that I know... Needs a Good Solid Meal to start their day off right. But more importantly than that... A Good, Strong cup of Hot Coffee! But even more important than that hot cup of Jamoka.... A Cowboy needs a Strong, Beautiful Woman by his side to wrangle him back in when he's out of line. Yeah, and just like you "Don't Mess With Texas", You definitely Don't mess with a Cowgirl! So when I ate at the Cowgirl Cafe in Downtown Paso Robles, I was on my best behavior. Located at 1316 Pine Street, this hole in the wall Cafe is where locals and visitors come together to break bread. A well themed decor diner that's open from 6am-2pm daily, The Cowgirl Cafe serves up a mean breakfast & lunch and boy did I enjoy it. 2 Eggs sunny side up, corned-beef hash, their Chef's Special Home Fry Potatoes, a side of toast, & a cup of coffee... All served with that hometown, local hospitality from our server who waited on us... You know, just like a cowboy, I tipped my hat to her and tipped her very well for her excellent service. As mentioned earlier.... The Cowgirl Cafe is open from 6am-2pm daily, so for you early risers who live the Cowboy life of waking up before the Sunrise, a hot meal will waiting for you. But don't fret if you are new to this Cowboy/Cowgirl rise and shine, get the day started off early business... Cause they serve breakfast up until 2pm (or until the cows come home). YeeHaw!!! Now, it's time to Cowgirl Up and stop pretending like this is your first Rodeo. Get on over to Cowgirl Cafe and Eat!
