We having been coming here for quite some time and man have things changed... so after finally sitting down, a guy came and took our order cause our server was busy. After like 5 min probs they brought us some warm and delicious conchas. I'd say maybe after 15 min our food arrived but we still hadn't gotten our drinks. Honestly the quality in the food has gone down, I felt like my hash browns were complete mush. When our server came we asked her for our drinks. My bf didn't get his coffee until we were basically done with everything. They use to run that entire restaurant with like 4 people working the front and service was never bad. They had so many people working that day.. I guess at least the restaurant looks nice and clean on the inside now. read more

The food is INCREDIBLE. We were started with complimentary concha's & got the carne asada chilaquiles platter with beans, instead of hashbrowns... it did not disappoint! Authentic, runny, incredible beans with deliciously flavored asada on top of perfectly crisped tortilla chips. The drinks are yummy, but sweet, so be warned! We came mid morning on a Monday, expecting no wait but there was about 15 minutes until a table opened up. Overall, no complaints! Be patient, and enjoy!! read more

You know never had an issue with this place when dining in , but today I tried to place a quick small order as I called I said "can I place a small order " they replied " can I place you on hold " "sure" phone gets set down not placed on hold so I can hear everything , she attends customer who is waited to be seated and another and another in total seated 3 and then started taking someone to go order , as I am waiting on the phone listing to all this .

Visited Loaded Cafe for Christmas Brunch and had the best experience possible. The staff is delightfully cheery and super attentive. My coffee never made it below half full and was always hot. Be sure to ask for Richard as your Server he is a menu wizard and so nice. We asked him to make a suggestion between two very different dishes and his answer both surprised and delighted me. He sold us on the complements of the two dishes and how we should order and enjoy both so we did order both. The food was perfectly prepared and delicious. The restaurant is decorated for the holidays with quality music and full of families having joyful experiences. I will be returning and highly recommend to indulge in the Conchita. read more

Although the service was good. The food is not good AT ALL. We came here to eat because the pictures looked good and it had good reviews on TikTok. But don't be deceived , the food lacked any flavor, and the steak tasted like plastic. We got the machaca eggs, they had no flavor, we got the sirloin steak, it looked like a slice of meat from McDonald's, we got the chilaquiles plate which is supposed to be their most popular dish, and it all lacked flavor. Most of the good reviews that are left is because they give an incentive of a free crepe if you leave a review. The only thing that was good was the free Mini concha's that they give you. read more

Not a super huge fan of French cuisine; however, the menu looked good and mostly reasonable prices. Restaurant is super cute with indoor/outdoor seating. We started off with a bottle of cab (41.00, ouch)! It was noted as a different brand on their menu and they came with a bottle of Josh Cellars which isn't a bad table wine but about 3 times the price! We ended up ordering the fondue for the app (24.00) which comes with bite size pieces of bread and diced apples. It was ok, a little too runny and had an interesting hint of beer flavor. Next up we both ordered the brie & prosciutto sandwich which came with a side of au gratin and greens. The sandwich was excellent but the potatoes were cold. We ended our meal sharing creme brulee for dessert. It was good but also served cold. Total bill incl tip: 163.00 bucks (double ouch)! Overall, meal and service was good, but I would forego the wine on a future visit as it was way overpriced for the brand we got as well as the cheese fondue. Will definitely be back though.

Tons of board games, books and wonderfully mellow music helps make the experience feel comforting and inviting. Our drinks were prepared quickly and shouted at the coffee bar for pickup. The presentation was great, but the flavors, out of this world! The Cinnamon Dulce Latte was OUTSTANDING. So good, in fact, that my girlfriend stole it from me!

The menu has a ton of really detailed options, each drink with its own depth. The menu changes seasonally but what doesn't change is the smoked old fashioned - a must-order. They smoke your drink in a glass container using applewood chips; it's quite a show and it also does make the drink much more enjoyable. Ask the bartender and they can also help guide you to a drink - I've done it a couple of times and always pleasantly surprised. Next up, the food! The hummus was very flavorful and paired with an amazing fluffy pita bread. The truffle fries were solid but the plate was HUGE, definitely needs a friend to share. The Nashville wings are the star of the show. I cannot stress this enough, this is worth a DRIVE for. The seasoning really does remind you of Howlin' Rays (the highest compliment) and the chicken is extremely crispy yet insanely juicy. The pickles and ranch that it comes with pairs so well. Do note that they are tossing it in pork fat, which enhances the depth but also makes it a little greasy at the end. I also wished they'd warn you this and offer to order it without it; especially for those who don't eat pork or for those trying to cut some calories. There's a happy hour menu too!!! So you can get drinks and food even cheaper. I cannot stop thinking about this place. It's such a sleeper. Head to Midnight Oil after a visit to continue your night.

He went into the kitchen for fresh berries, muddled them with Tito's and soda, and made a genuinely refreshing summertime drink that helped with the heat...! I eventually ordered the Crispy Shrimp & Calamari to eat as my main (I was dining alone). I had recently had a very notable version of the same dish at a Canopy by Hilton in Washington DC, and unfortunately, this one did not measure up. The breading was average and the sweet chili aioli was poor. I asked for ranch instead, which was an improvement but still not great. The portion itself was fine. Service was solid and friendly! I'd rate the staff around a 4. Based on the food I had, the kitchen lands closer to a 2.5 to 3. Fine if you're already in the hotel and want something casual, but not an amazing choice for the fried seafood.

After hearing great things about Loaded Cafe's food and drinks, I decided to finally give it a try. We were seated right away, which was a good start. I ordered the iced coffee flight (which I was really looking forward to) and my mom got a regular hot coffee. It took a while for our server to come back and take our food order, which wasn't ideal. We ordered the chilaquiles verdes, chorizo and eggs, and a French toast to share. Unfortunately, the food was a bit underwhelming. The chilaquiles were disappointing--no cheese, no sour cream, just chips, salsa, and eggs, with a side of cold beans. The chorizo and eggs were the highlight of the meal--hard to mess that up. The French toast lacked flavor and was slightly undercooked. The biggest letdown was the service. Our server never checked on us after taking our order, and we had to flag down another server (who seemed annoyed) just to get assistance. No refills, no follow-up. Overall, I wanted to love this place, but between the mediocre food and poor service, I left disappointed. Not sure I'd rush back anytime soon. read more

Originally, my waitress was named Veronica. As for my first visit she made it fantastic and fulfilled all my needs. She's pretty generous and hilarious if you ask me. As for my second visit, I decided to switch up my order and try their waffles. I might be a little strange for being that type of person to visit multiple times but this location brings a homelike feeling. Today I was sat and served by Stephanie. I was interested in getting the supreme combo and I wasn't so sure if I wanted plain pancakes (taking I had waffles in mind). Soon enough ANOTHER great waitress available to make modifications to my order. She suggested to get my desired waffle for a bit extra. As said in my original review, this place is all and all amazing. Service is greatly displayed through all the staff. This is my official Yelp review and I'm officially going to become a regular! Let's go loaded cafe! read more

While traveling from Michigan we stayed the night at the motel 6 . My wife and I had several options for dinner and we decided to try loaded cafe next door to our hotel. WOW!!! As soon as we walk in we was greeted by Leslie and Stephanie. They both we very cheerful and Stephanie seated us right away. The attention to the details of our order was unbelievable. Stephanie is a natural. FYI special notice pay attention to these two workers. They both made us feel from the moment we walked into the door that we had made the right choice. Management look for a manager position for these two employees. We have never ate here before but I recommend anyone in the area call first see if Stephanie is working. I'm sure you will feel the same read more

So we came before it was decent but today was so disappointing the restaurant was not that busy but for some reason they sat us in the back were no one can see and there was booth open. I was pissed but I dont like saying anything cause I don't want spit in my food not saying they will but if they sit you in the back were no one can see you yeah like I trust this place. Feel like they put us in the back so no one could see us so I will never come again service was ok after you say something that when they wanna sit you somewhere els but dont be nice after you did what you did maybe I'm over exaggerating cause I dont like to be hidden in the back like I dont matter bit never again will I step in here again. read more

I recently visited this location and had a fantastic experience. the food was exceptional and the service was top-notch! The flavors were rich, and the portions were generous. Our server was attentive and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. However, the one drawback was the surprising $4 credit card transaction fee added onto our bill. While I understand that businesses have expenses, it seems excessive considering banks charge much lower fees per transaction. I find this action very unreasonable. Overall, I would recommend Loaded Cafe for the quality of food and service, but be aware of the additional fee if you plan to pay by card. read more

Just visited Loaded Cafe in Long Beach and had such a great experience! The food was delicious -- I ordered the Machuca torta and chilaquiles, and both were packed with flavor and cooked perfectly. The torta was loaded (pun intended) and super satisfying, and the chilaquiles had the perfect amount of crunch and sauce. Service was on point too -- the staff was friendly and made sure everything was taken care of without being overbearing. Definitely one of those spots where you leave full and happy. Highly recommend if you're looking for a solid, tasty brunch or breakfast spot in the area. I'll be back for sure! read more

The food here is delicious! If you have a sweet tooth you will love this place. They are very generous with their servings. The service was good as well. My family and I were greeted immediately upon entering and were seated. The server, Stephanie was so sweet and kind. She made us feel welcomed which is very important to me. I'm not one to leave reviews but I was very impressed with this place. Everyone in my family got something different and we were all amazed by the quality of the food. I'm happy I discovered this place! read more

I really really really wanted to like this place. It's a cute cafe but.. after waiting an hour we were so disappointed. The food did not justify the high prices. The service was neglectful and never checked in on us. Come on.. breakfast is really hard to screw up on but they managed. Over hard eggs were just short of over easy.. the toast came out after 10 more minutes of waiting. We won't be giving lunch or dinner a try sorry. read more

So, stumbled upon this place and it was a total surprise package! The place had a relaxed diner vibe, and the staff and servers were very friendly. The food option was great- traditional Mexican and American. The whole experience was like hanging out with friends and family while munching on some seriously tasty grub. We also took home some delicious cakes. This spot's now on my brunch radar for sure. Can't wait to go back! read more

Today my husband took me here for breakfast and it was absolutely amazing. Since it was mothers day, it was really busy but we got seated really fast. Our waitress, Edith, was the best. She always kept checked up on us to make sure we had everything we needed. My husband and I both ordered french toast and it was delicious. I would definitely recommend this place. So far, it's the breakfast I've had. read more

Decided to try Loaded Cafe today to avoid the typical busy restaurants on Mother's Day and was happy I did. Great service, short wait, and delicious food. Definitely try the crepes if you come here. Family ordered the chilaquiles and chorizo and eggs and they were very happy with their selections as well.

I got an order of crunchy enchiladas and a Jamaica drink. The crunchy enchilada is not you traditional enchilada but most likely Chilaquiles. The Jamaica drink is a little bit too sweet for my taste. Beside those two observations the Conchitas calientes with coffee taste great. I'm giving it 5 starts because the food is more like home made and taste great. read more

My friend ordered the Belgium waffle w/ side of bacon. Unfortunately, the bacon came out too soon before the waffle, so the bacon was cold. They brought more bacon out when the waffle came, but the bacon was not all that great still. Our server was very nice and she took it off the bill. Overall, 4/5 for the food. The ambiance is nice and very small inside. The decor is really cute and very modern. They have many breakfast cocktails to choose from and coffee lattes! For my drink I tried the iced hazelnut coffee. It was half sweetened and delicious. I will come back here to try more food options and drinks. -Marshay D.

The margarita was perfect and came with some tamarindo and tajin. One of the empanadas was stuffed with spinach and cheese and the other had a lesser filling of chicken, almonds, provolone and spices. They were both decent sizes and went well with the house made chimichurri. There's a paid parking lot right behind the cafe, which tends to be full on the weekends. Street parking on Ocean is also available. I also like to ride my bike here!

It's our second time to Black Pork, but this time we went to try their LB food scene week specials…read more I remember my first time trying out this place was really good too, although maybe at that time I ordered too much of fried and fatty stuff haha so it felt heavy. This time we ordered the specials which come with empanada (potatoes and chorizo), mussels in some sort of "curry" like sauce, and and braised short rib with rice (you can also choose mashed potatoes instead of rice). You order at the counter, so we pay ahead. The verdict: wow. Everything was just wow. Such a great combination of food, I shared it with my bf and the whole thing was $31 before tax and tip. It was so good. The empanada was probably one of the best one in the city (the only contender is selva's empanada), the mussels were so good and the sauce too. Short rib with rice was amazing. It has more fat than meat lol but still really delicious. We brought our dog and they have a front patio with high chairs. It was a nice day so it worked out perfectly. The neighborhood is a little "sketchy" to me, this restaurant is literally surrounded by dive bars. I would imagine if they were located in downtown or 4th st, or Belmont then it would be so packed. But then maybe it would be even way more expensive. The price right now is great for what you get. Go try this place if you appreciate tasty food!

Fell apart in my mouth with just a fantastic flavor and texture, and the mushroom tacos were so on point. Not to mention the service here. Veronica was absolutely delightful. She took a lot of pride in their food, and let her talented husband has produced. You absolutely must give Black Pork a try. There are tiny little gem, that's absolutely priceless.

I think if you want to serve a popular drink like matcha then you should learn how to prepare it properly and use quality ingredients. I called and asked what ingredients they use and they said it was some cultivator or something idk but it seems like they use some cheap matcha powder bc the taste is not there. I ordered on DoorDash and was not able to get a refund so beware if you buy a matcha from them. When I called to let them know about the experience they just said "we're sorry about that" like not even trying to make it better lol they really dgaf. You can see in the pic that the color is a dark shade of green, if you like that kind of matcha then I guess try it for yourself to determine if you like that. On a positive note, I also ordered a quesadilla with chorizo and pickled onions and that is very good.

When I walked in it was pretty quiet, but it was also right before dinner time. The place feels more like a casual deli spot -- you order at the counter and there are a few tables if you want to sit and eat. The space looked clean and simple, nothing fancy but comfortable enough. The employee working there was very friendly. He came out from the back, answered my questions, and recommended the chicken pesto panini, saying it's their most popular item. I also added a Caesar salad for $2.99, which I thought was a fair price, and decided to try the bread pudding as well. The panini itself was pretty good. The bread was nicely toasted, the cheese was melted well, and the pesto had good flavor. The only downside for me was the chicken -- it seemed like it might have been boiled and then mixed with pesto. It was a bit tougher than I would have liked. The Caesar salad was decent for the price. Unfortunately, the bread pudding didn't work for me. It was very dense and almost brick-like. Overall, the value is there and the staff was very nice. For me personally, the food felt a bit average. I tend to prefer paying a little more for higher quality rather than saving a few dollars on something that doesn't quite hit the mark. Because of that, I probably wouldn't go back, but others might appreciate the price point and friendly service. Food 3 stars. Staff 5 average 4

I've branched out from the breakfast special to different omelettes and scrambles. Food is always consistent and comes out fairly quickly from the kitchen. We are usually in and out within the hour. We like the outdoor seating, but sometimes when we have a larger party, we take up spots in the booths or tables. So breakfast special is always on-point. Comes with egg, sausage or bacon, hash browns, and French toast or pancake. Can never go wrong, but these days I've been trying the omelettes. I really like the country, farmers, and the ABC. Friends have also ordered their specialties like huevos rancheros, chilaquiles, country fried steak, corned beef, chicken and waffles - and also from their lunch menu like the tuna sandwich or classic burger. Don't think there's anything we didn't like. They also allow for customizations but that can add up. There's some pastries that are pretty nice, but prices on those are on the higher side. Currently they have an offer for an early bird special where you come before 8 and get a free pastry with an order or something. Vibes are laid back, everybody is nice/friendly, and we always look forward to eating here after a nice swim.
