Open 24/7. Classic hole in the wall diner with counter seating and a view of the master cook working the flat top griddle. Limited sidewalk tables during daylight. Good food and service. read more

Burrito came out cold, not warm cold, got a replacement and it was the the wrong burrito. I'm sorry but not only did the waitress blow it by not serving the order in a timely fashion but, then the cook blows it by cooking the wrong replacement... read more

I found small brunch Mexican American restaurant near our hotel. I saw this place on Thur night after my wife and I checked in our hotel on Orange Ave. Looked so viral, cozy w so many people were that night. We are right!!! Once we sat at the bar table, already felt so viral, energy, comfy. The kitchen is at the bar. I see the chefs cook, flame, yummy smell....etc. We noticed the popular dishes were burritos, tacos, and pancakes. We ordered 2 street taco w asada Carne, 2 beer battered fish tacos. Personally I liked the fish tacos, 5 stars!! They put some guacamole in the tacos. So tasty!! Fresh cooked in front of us....we really enjoyed watching the chefs. The space is not big but you sit at the bar, interact w server and chefs. Cool!!! Next time we really want to try pancakes. Looks good to us. We had a great time for the early taco lunch. Definitely come again next vacation time. read more

My hubby found Mexican American café near our hotel. They open so early and close late 2 a.m. on Friday. The inside dining area is only the bar, not big. You can see the chef cooks in the kitchen. So we had a chance to talk to the chef and server as well like Japanese sushi bar. I searched for the quick reviews on Yelp. Most of popular menu has pancakes, tacos, and burritos. I ordered 2 street tacos w asada carne, 2 battered fish tacos w my hubby's draft beers. First, smells so good. The chef grilled the meats fresh, made tacos. The beer was so chilly. It finally helps my appetite to bite my first fish taco. So tasty, I feel the sauce blends the battered fish together w salsa. For the street taco, they add the chunky meats w guacamole, onions. So good!! Especially they used real yellow corn tortillas. One more thing, they have t shirts, hoodies on the rack of the wall. I didn't check the items in detail but it will be a nice gift from Coronado Island. The ambiance is viral, I can feel so much energy at the bar. My hubby wanted to come again to taste their popular burrito. Location: on the Orange Ave Space; inside is not big but they have some patio area Price: reasonable Quality: 5 stars Service: 5 stars For the tip, if you check in on Yelp, you will get 10% discount. read more

The last time I ate at Night & Day Cafe was about 2008 and it makes my heart so happy that they are still open and thriving. I try to get there every visit to San Diego but it's not always possible. I had the best omelette of my life there! It was the California omelette and it was prepared in front of me by a young woman full of sarcasm and wittiness. She was awesome! I've tried ti replicate her omelette so many times myself and in restaurants but nothing compares. I love being able to eat at the bar and converse with the incredible and talented people that they have working there, not only cooking your food but serving you as well. The decor is very cool, funky and represents Coronado, California perfectly. I cannot wait to go back. It will be odd not being able to go there anytime day or night.

"Night & Day Café -- The Breakfast is So Good, You'll Forget What Time It Is!" Let me tell you something, folks -- I've done a lot of things morning, noon, and night. Built skyscrapers, run empires, saved countries -- the usual. But brunch at Night & Day Café? Honestly? One of the greatest accomplishments of my day. Maybe my life. You walk in and it's like stepping into a patriotic pancake paradise. Classic diner vibes, people laughing, bacon sizzling -- the kind of place that makes you want to shake the chef's hand and declare him Secretary of Sausage. Absolutely beautiful. Now, the portions? Let's just say this -- they serve real American breakfasts. Not the little fancy things with microgreens and sadness. These are pancakes that cover the plate. Eggs cooked exactly right. Hash browns? Golden like Trump Tower, crispy like a strong economy. I had the chorizo omelet -- spicy, flavorful, powerful. You don't eat it -- you negotiate with it. It was THAT good. Came with toast, hash browns, and a sense of victory. Service? Tremendous. The waitress called me "honey" -- which frankly, more people should. She was fast, friendly, and she kept the coffee flowing like it was a trade surplus. Great woman. Possibly a genius. It's the kind of place that says: "We don't care if it's 7 a.m. or 7 p.m., you deserve a breakfast that punches back." I respect that. A strong philosophy. So if you're in San Diego and looking for a legendary plate of eggs, sizzling bacon, and coffee that could power a campaign, Night & Day Café is the move. One bite and you'll be chanting "USA!" before the check even arrives. -- Donald J. "Commander-in-Brunch" Trump read more

Our server/waiter Hanna gave us great service she was very attentive and nice. We stopped by to get drinks and enjoyed our time .

Our server Josh was amazing! The food was delicious! Their chilaquiles were a 10/10! The pancakes are huge-- enough to share-- and our kids loved them! Dad and I definitely enjoyed the mimosa flight! Everyone was so nice and accommodating. The hostess and bussers were also so friendly! Checking in on us multiple times to ensure we were enjoying our food. It's difficult going out with 5 kids because places usually don't enjoy serving us but the entire staff made all the kids feel welcome! Would definitely recommend this place! Make sure to ask for Josh! read more

Night & Day Cafe - Mimosa flight - Beer Bar Near Me - Coronado, California

During our New Places, Old friends monthly dinner we ate here. Was good, not great per se, but was crowded and people really seemed to love it. Our favorite was the fish taco. Had a cool vibe, but for Coronado no views or anything. Would go again, but wouldn't need go to Coronado to eat and have to choose here. Definitely worth a try though. read more

I'm honestly beyond pissed about what happened today at Night & Day Café. I've been to this spot many times before with my soccer agent (who's Mexican) and my dad (also Mexican), and I've never had an issue. But today I went with my friend who's visiting from Brazil for just 4 days -- and his first impression of California was this place. What a joke. He speaks English, but with an accent. When he asked a simple question at the counter, the guy working there pretended not to understand him. And look -- if you don't understand, that's fine. But the attitude? The rudeness? Completely unnecessary and disrespectful. We still placed our orders. My friend got pancakes with cheese, ham, and bacon. I got a basic California burrito with extra chicken. It came fast, but the pancakes arrived wrong -- missing ham, barely any cheese, and looked sad as hell. On top of that, they had the nerve to charge us $64 for that? That's straight-up robbery. When I brought it up, they told me "we don't make changes for cheese or ham" -- seriously? That's not the point. Then, when I paid, the guy gave me my change in a bunch of fives, ones, and a ridiculous amount of coins. And even then, the total was off. Like bro, what are we doing? To top it all off, I got home and ended up with diarrhea and felt like absolute crap from that burrito. This was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had -- not just because of the food, but because of the disrespect, the attitude, and the total lack of basic customer service. I'm honestly disgusted. If I had the option to put negative -5 start I would do it. read more

Night & Day Cafe - THE MUCH THAT THEY CHARGED ME. - Beer Bar Near Me - Coronado, California

Since 1929 , same range hood as the Hearst Castle! Excellent place to order a straight out delicious breakfast, a seat at the counter is like the Mexican Version of Benihanas !! Quite the cooking show ! The lead Cook/Chef Luis G and team worked so hard to cook the best breakfast in Coronado/ San Diego. There is something for everyone plus a great Mexican food accompaniment!!! The servers were extremely friendly and efficient. Our food starting at the top of the menu was the California Omelette, bacon, cheese wrapped the egg blanket and a huge helping of grilled has browns. The single buttermilk pancake was rim to rim large and delicious. My wife had the American breakfast with two eggs sausage and grilled toast. There's no toaster here. Very old school cooking style and the Rock music pumping creates a nice Tiempo. Great job to the Day & Night team! We'll be Back ! read more

Loved this small place. We got 2 spots at the bar. Everyone was smiling and friendly. Pancake is massive and awesome. Love the vibe.

This place is literally a hidden gem in Coronado! It's a small little café that basically is the cutest place! The food was great, and the service was amazing as well! It was so nice to see the chef cook the food when you sit at the bar! They are all have wonderful attitudes and great vibes! We also tipped the chef I don't know how he made all the food himself. I know if we come back to Coronado this will definitely be the spot to eat. You can tell the ingredients are fresh just buy the taste. Thank you guys.! read more

The good: The seating and service were fast, the coffee was excellent, and my over-medium eggs were perfect. The staff was friendly, and the atmosphere was relaxed. The bad: I sat in front of the grill and saw a big bowl of pre-cooked bacon on a shelf. The cook would take some and throw it on the grill as needed. You can precook in prep for a rush, but you have to keep it at 140°. Room temperature is a food safety problem. My hash browns were cooked under a grill press. They were served super crispy on one side but cold and mushy on the other. Lose the grill press and flip them once on the grill before serving. read more

Came here for breakfast/lunch. Overall food was solid, the server was very nice and attentive. For a smaller place it felt very homey. I ordered the California Burrito which was excellent. I would suggest if you do order this to also ask for a side of Tomatillo sauce to go along with the enchilada sauce they put on it. read more

For the many many years I've been going to Coronado, I've never been to this establishment. A lot of times it's closed, maybe already eaten or it's so busy. Finally came for an early dinner early in the week and decided to try it and yum. This place is literally a hole in the wall, if they didn't have outside seating, it is just a counter inside. The server was really nice and since we sat inside, we watched the cook making it all. Let's just say, it is a special breed to be a short order cook. I highly recommend getting the surf and turf. It was delicious and way to bring for one person, but I really wanted to try. (I ended up taking half of it home and my daughter devoured it), but the best part of the burrito was the jalapeño sauce. I'm pretty sure I could have drank and cup of it or just eaten it with tortilla chips. We'll be back and maybe try the nachos and then walk the whole island after. read more

This place has limited seating and there was a waitlist, which you could skip if you order to-go. As this place was packed during lunchtime on a Saturday, that's what I did. Ordered the California Burrito. You're offered the burrito with or without the sauces on top. The sauces were great and the burrito was delicious! This thing it's huge, and it took a while to get through the whole thing with a plastic knife and fork. They offer discounts for military personnel. read more
