    Breakfast burrito
    Vesta B.

    Every time I get the chance I am in seal beach I HAVE to come here and get a breakfast burrito and I don't just get one breakfast burrito, I get two because they are just that delicious and so is their mild/hot sauce! Omg they are so tasty! Honestly I am craving one right now lol I also tried their meat ball sandwich and that was good too. Honestly you can't go wrong with anything you get there. The service is great, they do get busy and there is a line every time you go in there but it moves really fast. They give you a number, and they will call it when your food is ready (which is a great and easy system). If you don't want to wait I recommend calling in your order and picking it up. The employees that work there are super nice and if you have any questions about the menu they give excellent recommendations. There is plenty of seating inside and outside. They have plenty of parking on the street. If you haven't been here yet you definitely need to check it out!

    $10 breakfast burrito. It was packed with eggs, cheese, bacon, potato and chorizo. It took about less than 10 mins to get my order. Small parking lot. Friendly service.

    I mean, it is a breakfast burrito. The main thing I was impressed by was that for being in a city as wealthy as Seal Beach, the burrito was very reasonably priced at $9.95. Amazing you can get a decent breakfast item with eggs in it at that price after tariffs, bird flu, inflation and everything else that has been happening in the economy lately, and they are making rent for a restaurant on main street Seal Beach with it. Amazing! The burrito itself was not bad but not the unicorn breakfast burrito that I have seen at the top of lists for THE BEST breakfast burrito in OC. It was not even close. There are four breakfast burritos just in Long Beach that I can think of right off the top of my head that were better than this one. I was really expecting a lot. It had chorizo, eggs, cheese, potatoes and a nice balance of each ingredient. The tortilla was dry and the "hot" salsa that came with it was not spicy and tasted super weird, like an odd cross between spaghetti sauce and pickled jalapeños. Not enjoyable or memorable in any way. After a few attempts I just threw the "salsa" away and continued with a dry burrito. It was a Saturday morning, so the line was long but they did get us through very quickly considering. Props to them for that. Service is friendly and professional even though they were slammed. Great employees! Fast and efficient. Parking sucks. All in all, not bad; however, the breakfast burrito itself was not worth the hype from all the top 10 lists from food influencers and KTLA news articles. They have a bunch of other sandwiches and menu offerings, so I plan to come back and try something else.

    Staff are super friendly and quick. Was a good option on a hit day to grab a sandwich and sit by the water. Sandwich was Ok but nothing spectacular. Bacon was too hard had to take some of it out. Otherwise pretty standard deli.

    Everyone raves about Nick's breakfast burritos, so I finally decided to give them a try. I got there at 10:30 on a Tuesday and the small seating areas inside and out were pretty full, perhaps because it's the start of summer. I had called in my order ahead of time, and it was ready when I arrived. There were two people in line ahead of me. The breakfast burrito has chorizo, bacon, potatoes, egg, cheese and their special sauce wrapped in a flour tortilla. You can get it mild or hot. The burrito was good but nothing out of this world. I would have liked more cheese and couldn't taste the bacon.

    *** Accepts credit cards but 3.99% processing fee will be added to the bill *** Nick's Deli is a long standing deli located in Seal Beach's Main Street since 1984. This is the flagship location with another location in Los Alamitos. [Parking]: Fairly easy parking in Old Town Seal Beach on not-so-busy weekdays. [Menu]: Not exactly the easiest menu to navigate with overwhelming sandwich selection, but this spot is known for its signature breakfast burrito. *** Breakfast Burrito (eggs, chorizo, bacon, potatoes, and cheese + special sauce; mild - $9.95): Customer can order mild or spicy special sauce. Burrito was pretty solid with just the right portion and right meat-to-cheese-to-potato ratio. Mild special sauce definitely made the burrito taste better. Also a bonus point on not having rice which is actually my personal preference. *** While it was not the best breakfast burrito I have ever had, I can actually see myself as a frequent visitor if I actually live close to this spot as (1) price is reasonable and (2) burrito is still above-average.

    Nicks has epic breakfast burrito (& salsa) I wanted to go in the morning and get a breakfast burrito burrito, but by the time I was able to get down, there was lunchtime so I ended up having a submarine sandwich which I've never had before. Delicious., fresh bread., same great service!

    Very nice presentation. Off to a promising start.

    Eating here was a long awaited occasion. Having heard great things from multiple people had our hopes up high. We came specifically for the Breakfast burritos. We were sadly disappointed, mostly with the "Breakfast Burrito." It claims to have chorizo and bacon along with potatoes, eggs, and cheese. They should list potatoes as the first ingredient because that is basically what dominated the burrito. I literally had to unroll it to try and find any bacon, of which I found the tiniest pieces. The chorizo was indistinguishable and I would have thought they forgot to add that too based on flavors. We also got the machaca burrito which was better but not worth returning for. The service was quick and the place was kept clean by very friendly staff who want you to enjoy your food, but I would not return for the breakfast burritos.

I read plenty of positive reviews on Yelp and was excited to try them out for the first time. I came in around 11 am on a Friday, and it wasn't too busy yet. The decor is homey, and it has a nice local vibe. The deli menu offers many classic Italian sandwiches, pastas, and more! Cold beverages and chips are next to the cashier. I ordered the classic Torpedo. Although there were no size options, it was a huge sandwich loaded with fresh ingredients, savory meats, and a quality baguette. I also grabbed one of the La Dolce Vita drinks, and it made for a perfect, filling lunch. The serving sizes are generous, so sharing is an option. There is a market in the next room with many items from Italy, plenty to take home, and make a great meal. From dry ingredients and sauces to cold fresh pastas, pizza dough, snacks, olive oils, and more! Most you won't find in mainstream grocery stores. At the deli counter, meats and cheeses are offered, and prices per pound are posted just above the counter. First time visiting, and it was an excellent experience. The staff was friendly, made my sandwich with care, and kindly brought it to where I was sitting. The dining area is spacious inside, and a couple of tables on the sidewalk just outside the door. Prices overall are decent and a bit pricey, but the food is delicious with generous portions. I'm looking forward to when the craving hits again.

They have a pepperoni pizza for $19.99. I ended up getting the Italian torpedo sub. Sub was ok and service was quick and friendly. I liked that they had a little market attached. Unfortunately I dont plan on going back to this place. Besides the prices being high, a tip is asked for when you pay with card. I tip for table service, not to go orders. Seeing my receipt later, I see an "admin fee" that was added. Upon seeing other reviews.. they try to get you with a dine in fee. I hate stupid surprise fees. I recommend going to Nicks instead on main st if you want a sandwich.

It's my absolute favorite breakfast burrito in the area. I get it with eggs over medium- comes with chorizo, potatoes, cheese and bacon. Great portion, amazing texture and the flavor is on point from start to finish. You can actually taste each component instead of everything turning into one salty breakfast blob. Every bite has something going on in the best way. Seasoned perfectly. Chef's kiss. The homemade salsa is fire too. Spicy, flavorful and exactly what the burrito needs. It cuts through the richness, wakes everything up and makes the whole thing even better. Dangerous stuff honestly, because now the burrito feels incomplete without it. I believe they got a mild and hot. Fries were bomb too. I ask for extra seasoning and they come through. The ketchup was also weirdly good, chilled and delicious. Could be Heinz, could be homemade, could be magic. Either way, I want more of it. The vibe's chill and down to earth. The people here are genuinely great imo. Friendly, easygoing and consistent every time I've stopped by. You place your order, they give you a ticket and you pay when it's ready. They also have a fun drink selection, including Calypso drinks and Stewart's root beer in cans and glass bottles. I respect a deli that gives the drink fridge some effort. There's seating when you walk in and more seating in the back area of the deli. Parking can be hit or miss and the spot is easy to pass by, but that breakfast burrito is worth circling the plaza for. I've done it. I'll do it again. Easy recommendation, the consistency of their food and service is on another level. I'm excited for my next haircut.
