    Seating from their booth and front door
    Gus L.

    Upon entering the staff greeted us with smiles. The restaurant looked super clean and well kept. I did enjoy they had holiday decorations up to make it feel warm. Upon seeing the menu they have all options for everyone. When the food arrives the staff went over and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. It's a must try, I enjoy supporting small businesses.

    Talapia Dinner

    The service was great. The waitress was friendly and informative on the menu. The food was delicious. I had the Talapia dinner and hubby beef hard shell taco plate. They had the old Christmas songs playing for the season. The flan was to die for.

    This was my first time trying Ortega's Diner. Our waitress was super friendly and helpful. The ambiance is trendy and I love the Valentine's Day decorations. The food was good. I think I enjoyed the beans most on my plate. I also had a bite of their pancakes and they were pretty good. I'd eat here again.

    Came here for breakfast to try it out. Place is nice but a little warm at first. Our server greeted us promptly and was friendly and happy to answer any questions. The menu is HUGE (variety of Mexican and American) and quite intimidating and had me a bit nervous about food quality. Here's how it went. 1st: chips and salsa aren't free and were $3.99 but good and not sure if they are u limited as we didn't ask for more chips when finished. Agua Fresca Jamaica: 8/10 Size is decent for 4.99 and good Chilaquiles: 6/10 The menu price is 14.99 for chicken or carne asada and charged an extra 3.99 for chorizo (the store bought one) which was interesting as chorizo is cheaper than both. Also, the creama drizzled on top was an extra charge and only comes with one egg. An extra egg was (2.25) Sadly, The tortillas were cut into tiny squares and my eggs were over cooked. I asked for over easy and it they were over medium (I love the runny egg yolk). Our server didn't come back and check on us to ask how our food was until we were nearly done. They did get a rush of people so that attributed to our lack of service. Ortega omelet: 7/10 omelette was wayyyy overcooked. Comes with two sides of your choice and toast.

    Fantastic Breakfast and Excellent Service! We had breakfast for two at Ortega's Diner and loved everything about it! We ordered the huevos rancheros, chilaquiles en salsa verde, and a Belgian waffle topped with fresh strawberries, along with two house coffees -- all for under $60, which is an amazing deal for the quality and portions. The food was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. The staff was super friendly and attentive, great ambiance, making us feel right at home. Excellent service all around! Highly recommend Ortega's Diner for anyone looking for a delicious and satisfying breakfast.

    Mozzarella sticks
    Sally F.

    We absolutely love this place! From breakfast to dinner options you cannot go wrong! They also have some of the best salsa in the IE! My favorite is the country fried steak breakfast, skillet breakfast, chilaquiles breakfast, pescado frito dinner plate, and mozzarella sticks! Also their orange and mango agua fresca is amazing! The service is always 10/10 and the place is always clean! I highly highly recommend this restaurant! It's hard to find quality food these days at a reasonable price but this place has it!

    Chilaquiles with Carne Asada and red sauce
    Kosoma J.

    My husband and I always pass by this place and finally decided to come here! I was happy with the service ! The inside was clean and inviting. They have so many food options and we came here for breakfast, I got the Chilaquiles plate with carne asada and red sauce, love this plate and how tasty everything was! Check it out when you are in the area

    Pancakes
    Michael A.

    Kiddos wanted the one breakfast item that I don't cook - pancakes, so we took a drive to check out Ortega's. We were greeted and promptly seated. Kids enjoyed the pancakes and the bear face was a nice touch. Country fried steak and ham were both good. Saw the sign for Micheladas so will have to try some out next time. I think I also saw mimosas being taken to a couple tables. Everyone here was friendly and attentive but our server (unfortunately didn't catch her name) really took care of us. Our coffees stayed filled and when I asked for a cup to go, there was extra coffee poured in so that I had a full cup when I transferred what was in my mug. Service like this is what I would gladly return for.

    Starving in mid afternoon and having no knowledge of the city of Fontana, I stumble in this place. Clean, roomy and greeted with beautiful smile, what else can a hungry guy ask for. Instantly the chips and salsa appear and I'm telling you, I devoured them. Not only because I was hungry, but because they are delicious. Chips apparently are made fresh here daily. Menu is extensive. I was surprised at the quality and quantity of items. In the mood for a burrito, I ordered the burrito supreme. This thing is massive. Digging into it, had me thinking twice while being able to finish it. Let me tell you, in award, it was delicious. Fresh guacamole, delicious Mexican rice, and a special spicy salsa that they brought as a side dish. Great service, and quality food. If you're in town in Fontana, definitely look this place. But make sure you come hungry.

    Pastrami sandwich! Bomb!!!!!
    Daniel F.

    Ortega's recently opened in Fontana. I came in to give them a try and decided to go with a pastrami sandwich to go with Onion Rings instead of fries. The misses went with a Chile verde Gordita and an Asada Gordita. Let me tell you that this might be the 2nd best pastrami sandwich I've ever had. There's a place in LA you might of heard of, Langer's Deli, they're pretty good. But this pastrami sandwich here at Ortegas was absolutely delicious! You know the food is good when the food puts you in an even better mood. The misses really liked her food, she said I cam bring her those anytime. Our waiter was amazing, friendly and was very attentive to our needs without us having to ask for it. The ambiance is nice, simple but very nice. And lastly, I appreciate that the music that was playing was not loud, I don't like having to shout to my wife when the music is loud.

    Shrimp appetizer
    N O.

    First would like to say that the prior restaurant the hot spot is missed! The menu is exactly the same as Lucy's Diner, page for page! Ordered the patty melt, shrimp sampler, onion rings and cheeseburger. Salsa was very watery but the chips were good. Food was fresh, served hot and pretty tasty! Overall satisfied, just wish there was some originality with the menu here.

    Shrimp burrito Wet with chilli Verde sauce (no beans)
    Steve R.

    Great Mexican food and diner food. Got the mojarra fritta (fired tilapia) and came out great! Not the largest bit was fresh and seasoning was just right. Also got the shrimp burrito (no beans and wet), thing is a beast of a burrito with soo much shrimp not just rice like a lot of other places will do. Wet sauce was a chilli Verde and was very good! Agua fresca are just the right sweetness and huge cup. Give this place a try of your hungry and want good food with good portions.

    I got the chilaquiles verdes this time the other day
    Joey R.

    Everything went well. Amazing food, atmosphere and service. I'm already sold after my first time going. Bring an appetite if you want some menudo cause these bowls are HUGE

    Decided to treat myself out to breakfast and dine in at Corky's. When I arrived, there was no line…read more I was greeted by the lady working in the front bakery and was seated immediately. I was probably sitting no more than 3 minutes before the waitress came over to take my order. She was great. She came back two other times to make sure I was good. I ordered the chorizo burrito w/ home fries instead of hash browns and a water because I can't fix myself to pay what they charge anywhere for a soda. The chorizo burrito is simple - eggs, chorizo, home fries, and shredded cheese for $14.19. The presentation of the burrito was a little underwhelming but the burrito was a nice size. It was large enough to share with another person. The home fries inside were ok. They were a little underdone and over seasoned for my liking. Again, that's just me! I know now to get them extra crispy. The chorizo and egg mixture was cooked perfect. The ratio of potatoes, to eggs, to chorizo was a perfect balance. The burrito was also cheesy. I've never had Corky's salsa and I was pleasantly surprised, it had a little kick. It also tasted salty to me but I also don't cook with a lot of salt. My only other critique was the tortilla could've been warmed a little more, not just heated up on the burner. The ambiance here is country kitchen style. They have quite a bit of decor hanging on the walls representing it. This place is pretty large inside and could definitely accommodate a large party. Overall, my dining experience was good and I would come here again for sure.

Since then he's also tried their Po' Boy sandwich and Kimchi Fried Rice which he absolutely loved. I like the exterior of their fried chicken here. It's so crispy and the French Toast which is also made from the brioche. The bakery is right next to door and the reason their bread is so fresh and delicious. On nice days, they'll have a couple tables outside but the seating is primarily inside. I'll definitely order the kimchi fried rice next time. I tried some when my husband ordered it and it was so good.
