    Tasteful and creamy Shrimp Scampi. My go to when visiting Pieloon!
    Hazel G.

    This is one of my favorite quaint venues with lots of choices. And friendly employees for the most part. Visited about two weeks ago and they were under staffed. Three attempts to get creamer for coffee. Brought wrong bread to table. I excitedly took cornbread home to enjoy it, but to my dismay it wasn't like it used to be to. It was dry and tasteless. Now, my favorite dish was on point! Shrimp Scampi was as creamy as ever with tasty shrimp! Their garden salad with ranch is truly one of fave. And I truly enjoyed their Pepsi (bubbly and cold), extra on the side. BRAVO! I will not discontinue filling my tastebuds with their pasta, salad, Pepsi! It's time for a slice of their pies...till next time!

    Hash and eggs with extra cheese
    Brian C.

    Been a few since I've been to this establishment. Busy for a Sunday which is nice to see. Wait/host staff very friendly as always. Love the menu always good selection still have breakfast as brunch for Sunday after church. Wait staff prompt and friendly knowledgeable. Overall staff as we were waiting on the ball no lagging well oiled machine and family owned. Coffee taste pretty good and ordered prompt with our wait staff. My wife ordered hash and eggs and I went for the Chorizo and eggs. All the fixings come with that, choice or potato's reg or home style or beans. Choice of bread, we chose sourdough. They have a flat screen attached high on the wall with sports streaming. The music of conversation among customers like a cosy family setting. Corn beef hash and eggs are great my wife approves well cooked potatoes and corn beef well mixed eggs great my with recommended a little cheese with the eggs ask for it. The eggs with chorizo very good like mom made them. Home potatoes taste great well seasoned and toast, toasted well with a switch of butter on it. Very good breakfast for the price. Remember this is a mom and pop establishment that has survived many incidents and still strong in customer service and food is up to being it's best. I want to give a shout out to the bussing staff. Young man bussing(cleaning) tables. Doing his best that was my first job and proud to say thats where I started. my working life. Great Sunday with good food and customer service still recommended this mom and pop.

    Tuna Salad Sandwich
    Mike S.

    Pieloon -- I Wanted to Love You, But... I've passed by Pieloon countless times and have seen it pop up on my friends' feeds, so I finally decided to stop in and see what all the buzz was about. The place itself is charming -- a cozy, old-school spot with plenty of character. You can tell they've kept most of the original décor, and it really gives off that nostalgic, family-style vibe. The menu is huge...everything from pancakes and pies to roast turkey dinners and hearty salads. Daily specials galore, too. Naturally, we had to sample a little bit of everything. Roast Turkey Plate: 6/10 The turkey itself was good, and the gravy had nice flavor. Unfortunately, the mashed potatoes tasted like they came from a mix, and the stuffing had that "old bread" taste. The cranberry sauce and garlic toast on the side were nice touches, though. Overall, good value but average execution. Sampler Platter: 7/10 This came with onion rings, mozzarella sticks, zucchini bites, and jalapeño poppers. Everything was crispy and fun to munch on, but it was just a bit over-fried. Tuna Sandwich on Squaw Bread: 6/10 The tuna was very cold and a little too "fishy," and the squaw bread tasted more like plain wheat. Not bad, but nothing special. Chicken Noodle Soup: 7/10 Simple, comforting, and tasty...but pretty standard diner fare. Service: Service was fine, if a bit detached. The staff seemed focused and busy, which I understand, but a little warmth or acknowledgment would've gone a long way. Final Thoughts: I really wanted to fall in love with Pieloon...and while I appreciated its classic charm and generous portions, the food just didn't quite hit the mark. Still, I'm glad I finally gave it a try.

    Sampler, Chili Potato Overload
    Kate L.

    It's old school mom & pop dinner. My BF grew up in Downey and this restaurant went through covid, fires, and an oven explosion, it's still here. Service is fast and friendly. The staff greeted their regulars by name. We went for apps and pie for dinner. The next day we were back for breakfast for waffles!! The pies!! All flavors are excellent. We brought a lemon meringue pie to a party and it was fluffy, tangy not too sweet, flaky crust. It was a hit. Stop by for great food and support the local businesses

    Western burger
    Erika T.

    Saw this place as I was driving by to get a coffee. Coffee line was out the door so I turned around and come here. Waited about 2 mins behind a party of 2 to be seated. Got a water quick and my waiter came over about a min after that. I looked over the menu and narrowed it down. I got the western burger without tomato. My food arrived about 10'ins after I placed my order. I guess my eyes were bigger than my stomach as I was only able to take 4 bites of my burger. It was piled high with toppings, including pickles (not listed) and 1000 island dressing (also not listed). The burger was juicy and had good taste. The fries had a bit too much season salt for my liking but I love a good steak fry.

    Roast Pieloon Beef Melt Sandwich
    Sarah K.

    I've lived in Downey for 40 years and have never been to Pieloon! Now I know why. The interior of this place is cute and kind of cottage-y with some stained glass details but that was one of the few positives for me. The host was not very friendly just kind of meh, but we were seated quickly. Part of this is my fault - once we were seated and had a chance to look at the menu our server came by, but I wasn't quite ready. It was another 7 minutes before she came back, and even then I had to raise up and get her attention. I ordered a side of ranch to go with my fries which she never brought altho she did remember later and apologized for not bringing it. They did not come back to check on our waters until we were about 95% done eating; and speaking of, my husband ordered soda water - you know, from the soda fountain - and they brought bottled without asking him! They charge for that! I got the roast beef melt which was tasty but definitely nothing special and the meat was overcooked. My husband ordered a roast beef dip, again overdone meat. Our server was definitely nice but not very attentive. I won't be back.

    Peach pie
    Melissa C.

    Delicious pies, wished my peaches were a little softer as they were pretty hard but so flavorful. Both pies were amazing and service was amazing. Will come back for pie

    THIS IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE SLICE OF PIE IVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE! HOWEVER IT WAS AMAZING! While in downey, I really wanted something sweet. I am a cheesecake fanatic, so I went to my trusty Yelp to find something; Pieloon came up! Customer service: 4/5 When we first walked in, it seemed kind of dead and not so ...Happy? Lol. The woman who took our order seemed nice, she wasn't overly joyous or anything lol but she was nice...her coworkers ? Ehhhh not so much. I even tried to make small talk about their menu / what was good there, aaaand they weren't having it lol they wanted to talk to one another- so I just ordered my 1 slice of cheesecake and called it a day. The wait was actually longer than I expected. About 16 minutes? Maybe more. Price: 2/5 MY ONE SLICE OF CHEESECAKE WAS $9.11! Yes, NINE American dollars and eleven cents. I think that is absolutely ridiculous in my opinion lol I'm not sure where the price comes from..not the size..:nor the fruit... I'm not entirely sure. The pie: 5/5 My small regular slice of cheesecake was quite good, honestly I can say it was amazing! In fact it is one of the best I've ever had! My partner had no issues with buying my expensive slice of fruit cheesecake (lol! That is not the point!!) but I just feel like most places in LA (Urth Cafe) you get a big / amazing slice of cheesecake for 8.00/ 9.00 and Double the size. But I will say...this damn piece of cheesecake was pretty great. The crust was THICK and made so well! The graham cracker is my favorite part of a cheesecake. . The filling of my slice of cake wasn't overly tart, nor overly sweet- It was so creamy, not too thin- it was thick, but not overly thick. . It was just your perfect slice of cheesecake. It makes my mouth water, lol! All around 4/5 I would get another slice if I felt like splurging. I do hope they hire people who are a bit more upbeat lol but honestly this place is worth stopping if you can.

    I have many childhood memories here. It is so rare to find a place so warm and welcoming, the staff is AMAZING, the food is INCREDIBLE, and the ambiance is top notch. I finally came by for lunch after 20yrs and it was so impressive.

    Spaghetti special
    Brenda R.

    Go for the food...and stay for the PIE!!! It's not called Pueloon for nothing this Downey staple serves up home cooking 7 days a week! In the heart of Downey you can get just about anything your heart desires! If it's not on the menu...just ask! Our favorite is the soup and sandwich combo with the Kahlua cream cheese pie!! But we've trued them all...just for you and each one is terrific

    Potato California Skins .   We over did it.  We are taking them home . They are a bit thicker than desired.

Just a couple of weeks ago, my friends and I were considering our options for where to have brunch to celebrate one of our friend's retirement. Toast was one of the names I dropped in the metaphorical hat, and it won the vote of a few. My friends were surprised that I had named a spot I hadn't yet tried since I'm usually the "foodie" of the group. However, another girl in the group who had been here before vouched for it. I'm glad I finally got to try this place this past weekend, and I cannot wait to return! There were so many things on their menu that I wanted to try. A couple of the ladies ordered green chilaquiles, the friend we were celebrating ordered the Spanish Omelet, another woman I'd met that day had the bacon and eggs, another one ordered the Biscuits and grave with a side of bacon that looked perfectly crispy. I wish I had taken pictures of the plates as it all looked so lovely! I didn't even take a picture of my own food haha. I had my eyes on an omelet, one of the Benedicts or the Chicken n Waffle. In the end, the chicken and waffle won. It comes served with a little container of maple syrup with bacon pieces. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The waffle was delicious, though I did request for some extra syrup on the side. To drink, a few ladies ordered mimosas, one ordered an iced caramel coffee, and I ordered the Carajillo. I fell in love with this drink last summer in Mexico and do not often see it on the menu. I love the subtle citrus notes the Licor 43 adds to this espresso drink. It is very similar to an espresso martini, and theirs comes topped with a toasted marshmallow. I honestly wanted to try almost every item in their Tipsy Barista section of their drinks. I'll just have to come back that many more times :) Plenty of parking in the mall lot. It does get pretty packed during peak hours. Fortunately I had called ahead to put our group of 6 down. We went in on Saturday around 11:30. It slowed down a bit while we were eating, but started to get busy again after 1. Otherwise, we might have been forced to honor their 90-minute rule. All in all, a great experience from everyone in our group. No complaints on the wait, service or food. That certainly deserves a toast. Great job, Toast!

Both were on the sweeter side, but still refreshing and perfect for summer. It was also my first time trying chilaquiles, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but they were flavorful and came in a very generous portion. I also enjoyed the steak and eggs--the steak was especially delicious. The Mediterranean salad was a fresh and healthy option with lots of different ingredients. For dessert, we tried the Sunshine mango mousse and berry cheesecake. Overall, One Twelve Caffe has a fun atmosphere, an impressive menu, generous portions, and plenty of cute photo opportunities.
