    Breakfast Burrito
    Clarissa P.

    We were just passing through the area and decided to stop here after seeing all the great reviews. Unfortunately, it just wasn't our cup of tea. Came in and the hostess didn't even greet us. We just stood there confused until she decided to speak to us and ask how many. The first thing we noticed was how warm and stuffy it was inside. There didn't seem to be much ventilation, and combined with how loud it was, the whole place felt pretty chaotic. There were also several kids crying, walking around and screaming during our visit. We ordered the biscuits and gravy, French toast, and the breakfast burrito. The French toast was the best of the three, although I think the butter did a lot of the heavy lifting. The biscuits and gravy and breakfast burrito were both pretty bland. The burrito itself was also quite hard, and the hash browns inside it were overcooked and overly crispy. For $16 you also didn't get a side. One thing that was annoying was that I asked for a side of sour cream and was charged $1 for a tiny condiment cup without our waitress letting us know there would be an extra charge. The burrito came only with salsa (Pace salsa) while the less expensive breakfast quesadilla includes both salsa and sour cream. Make it make sense. Also, it seemed like the other waiters and waitresses gave kids a kids water cup but our little girl didn't get one or was offered a water at all. We gave her some of our water. Overall, this place wasn't for us, and I wouldn't return or recommend it based on our experience. But, it was crowded! So it seems like the locals love it, maybe it's the only option around.

    Fish and Chips ( substituted salad for chips )
    Robert C.

    I ordered the fish and chips but substituted the chips for a salad. The fish although plentiful didn't look like your typical deep fried variety but tasted alright. I was impressed with the amount of food you received. Thought it was good value. It also seemed popular with the locals. Service was okay. Looking around at what other people ordered you received an abundance of food. I like that! Hard to find generous portions elsewhere.

    I just ordered the chicken and waffles and this is what it looked like. Horrible!!!  The chicken is super hard and is dry.

    I just ordered the chicken and waffles and this is what it looked like. Horrible!!! I always ride by this place and wondered about their food and was craving chicken and waffles so I figured I'd give them a try. I ordered via Door Dash and this is what I received. The chicken is super hard and dry. It looks like it was cooked in old grease! It came with scrambled eggs and as you can see, there were barely any. Very disappointed and I may go ima to the restaurant later to complain as well.

    First timers and my cousin said this is the place to go. We wanted a breakfast spot that was more home style and this definitely hit the spot. The old school chairs for waiting, the art on the wall..I really liked the setting. Service was quick and awesome the girls did great, thank you. Meals came out quick, I got the lumpy skillet with some salsa. I loved it and with the mix veggies. But that churro waffle was omg, so worth it. If I lived here this would definitely be one of my go to spots.

    Veggie Benedict and Peach Milk Shake
    Alan D.

    Was working in the area and wanted to grab something to eat for myself. Was browsing around local places and this one popped up for me. Was within walking distance and had online ordering, so I had to give it a try. Veggie Benedict: Almost the same as a Florentine Benedict, but no spinach. Still, it was delicious. Despite its rough looking presentation when I received it (granted everything was just shifted to one side of my container when I was eating it), I enjoyed the meal. The eggs were poached perfectly and the Hollandaise sauce was great. The hash browns could have been crispier, but still, I enjoyed my meal. Also, got a kids peach shake and it was refreshing and satisfying to consume. Overall, had a nice brunch and can see myself ordering from here again.

    Lumpy's Pancake Breakfast
    Ed S.

    We're looking for a Diner near our house on Oakley and came across Lumpy's Diner on Yelp. It's just a short drive from our house and very convenient It's what I expected from a Diner and they serve good breakfast and sandwiches for lunch. They have several variety of food on their menu. The place is neat and I like the ambiance of the place. The diner has several framed pictures posted all over its walls and reflects a nice comfortable atmosphere while dining. For breakfast, I ordered the Pancake BREAKFAST which has two buttermilk fluffy pancakes served with one egg, any style, and your choice of bacon, sausage, ham, hot link, or linguica. Service was excellent and quick. The food was also delicious. The pancake was fluffy and generous in size. I enjoyed our breakfast and was glad to check in on Yelp

    Food was excellent. Service was excellent. Love the car culture. Good vibes and always welcoming establishment.

    This is our go to spot for breakfast. My girls and I love the service and atmosphere. We go so much the owner asks about whoever isn't with us that day. They serve a solid breakfast and we have no complaints. If you go on the weekends be prepared to wait a little bit.

    I love coming here. Everyone always is friendly and attentive. The ambience is chill, fast paced, and very bright, they have a lot of windows . The food is always a 10 out of 10, on point & tasty!!! Our server was amazing so friendly & attentive. If you're in the area, you'll have to try this place out. You will not be disappointed.

    Lumpy's Breakfast Sandwich & Churro Waffle
    Chelly C.

    Decent brunch spot in the area. Quick service and friendly staff. My husband ordered a breakfast sandwich with chicken fried steak and I ordered the Kitchen Sink Burrito. That was pretty good and our waitress recommended for the wrap to be grilled which I enjoyed. We also ordered the churro waffle and that was ok. Overall, good service and decent food.

    "The Cure" breakfast... so good
    Brian-Matthew C.

    An old school place with a great vibe. There is usually a wait but it's also usually worth it! The food came out super fast and was hot! The wait staff does a great job keeping up with a packed house. The cooks are very consistent. The menu offers a lot of variety. Prices are good and portions are too! Will definitely be back

    Pork Enchilada Omelette
    Wesley W.

    Update 3/2/25 Another visit to Lumpy's for our Hawaiian breakfast fix of Loco Moco. Again, an excellent breakfast choice. The hamburger patty is NOT over cooked and dry, but really tender and tasty. The spam fried rice is the perfect foundation for Lumpy's iteration of Hawaiian Loco Moco. The green onion palm tree is really cool and cute representation of an "island" of delicious food! A rating of 5/5! Loco Moco is not on Lumpy's main menu. It's only prepared on selected days. You can call to see what days Lumpy's will put their loco moco on their menu. You can try other selections on their menu which are great too. Give Lumpy's a visit. You'll be satisfied and content!

    Can I bring my dog inside the restaurant while friends and I dine( lap dog)?

    I am not sure. I don't remember ever seeing dogs in there, but it gets pretty packed in there. So I don't know if I'd even bring my dog in there.

    When did outdoor dining disappear?

    Hi, thanks for your question. Due to staffing issues and also poor weather, outdoor dining disappeared. We were hoping to bring it back for the warm months ahead, But then, we have that staffing issue again… please stay tuned! if we can get this all… 

    Does anyone know if they are open during the Stay At Home Period?

    Yes, we’ve been open,. We’ve been taking it day by day. We are open for takeout only. Please check our Facebook or website for hours this week. And thank you so much for your support

    Many restaurants offer "Kids eat free" days - do they participate? If so, which day(s) offer free or reduced price meals for children?

    Reduced kids meals I believe are on Thursday from a certain time 11:00am to 3:00pm I believe, You can always call and ask they are super friendly ?

The food was excellent, but Jorge's attention to detail was impeccable. On the day of service, we were greeted by Jorge and his staff. Our family and guests were served to their specifications. We asked for a bit more cooking time on the sliders and they obliged. What was great about Monica's is that you aren't up charged for the space. You are specifically paying for the food, which they cook as you go. Meaning, as your party eats certain items, Jorge and crew replenishes the servings of that item. That way your food is hot and always fresh and not sitting g out for minutes or hours. Along with the food price were water, coffee, tea, and soda. No one around can bet the price or the service we received. Thank you, Jorge and crew for representing Monica's Riverview to the utmost!

    The food here is amazing and I enjoy coming here with friends and family…read more The restaurant is situated firmly in the middle of town, with may other attractions within walking distance. Service is always kind and timely. No rushing or making you feel unwelcome. VERY kind and attentive staff! The ambiance is ordinary, but very clean. There is a bench for people to sit while waiting on seating or their mobile orders. Payment is up front by the door, conveniently next to the display case of great baked items and pastries. If you haven't yet been here, then you haven't tasted what Brentwood has to offer!

    I usually love the food that comes out of the kitchen at MJ's but today they weren't on the ball…read more I ordered hashbrowns extra crispy. They were crispy on the outside, but inside they were uncooked. I ordered the Italian sausage, onion, and green chili omelette. Unfortunately the sausage was tasteless and the green chilies don't seem like they were rinsed because they still had a briny taste. I had asked for cheddar to be inserted in the outlet, but unfortunately it came out without cheddar. I brought this to the attention of my server. She said I could take it back and have them put cheese on the top and melt it in the oven. I know it was a busy morning with the farmers market at all, but that shouldn't be a reason why the food quality that came out of the kitchen was like this. As always, the hostess the person that gave you the set up to the water and the waitress were all great.
