I introduced my friends to Rosy's when they wanted to take me out for my birthday. I tried the Chile Verde Omelet with extra crispy hash browns and English muffins and it was great. One of my friends ordered the Chicken Fajita Omelet with the same sides and she told Jaimie, our waitress, and owner's daughter, that it was one of her best breakfasts. Another friend enjoyed her Strawberry/Banana smoothie and another enjoyed her Huevos la Mexicana, though she wished she ordered the hashbrowns instead of "home fries" since they were kind of plain. I enjoy potatoes like that if they add onion and green peppers. We enjoyed our coffees with refills. The prices have gone up but so have all the other restaurants and this in comparison seems reasonable. read more

Rosy's Cafe - my delicious Chile Verde Omelet with extra crispy hashbrown potatoes and English muffins - American Near Me - Hayward, California

This is also a local place with excellent food, all made on the spot. Their home fries, for example, are made from regular potatoes rather than tasteless frozen fries. Since I love to cook from scratch and I am a very good cook, my best compliment is that this is the best of home cooking. The staff is helpful and friendly and will add ingredients to your meal if requested. The service is excellent and rendered with a smile. Breakfast is an excellent choice, or possibly brunch. And the portions are large enough that you could share every meal with a companion. This is a modest looking place with excellent quality food. read more

Went here because of all the great Yelp reviews. I think this is the first time Yelp has lead me astray. First the good; the server was friendly. The place was clean. They have a cute selfie wall. The thing that I liked, and wished most restaurants were like this, the kitchen is completely open. You see how clean the kitchen is and can watch your food being prepared. Now the not so good. It is a small place and the booths are so tight together I could hardly get my legs under the table, forget about crossing them. It was very cold inside, my husband had to run out and get my jacket so I wouldn't freeze. The food was so-so, nothing I couldn't have made at home. Part of the lure of eating out is because it's different from homemade. I had the avocado cheese omelet with hash browns. The hash browns were kind of creamy inside, something I'm not used to and wasn't expecting. Also, vegetarians beware the hash browns are made with bacon grease. My omelette was also ok, the cheese wasn't melted, but I dealt with it until I bit down on egg shell. That's when my breakfast was over. My husband got the pancakes, sausage, and eggs. His eggs were fine, but his giant pancakes were burnt and tasted burnt. The pricing was average/high, especially since I didn't enjoy my meal. read more

Still a solid 4 star joint in my book. It was a nice visit after 2+ years. There was no wait, but it was maybe 2:15pm on a Saturday. The salsa was still good, coffee fresh, staff friendly. Food cooked to order and tastes like a homemade meal. The strawberry agua fresca was refreshing. read more

I've been here in the past as my sister used to live in the area. The food was decent and service pretty good. Went this morning and it was terrible all around. I had my own drink and Rosy stated we don't allow outside drinks. But I saw countless men come with their own coffee cups and she didn't say anything to them. On top of that my bacon and toast were very burnt and not edible. She never came to check on me and my sister after we received our food. Finally stated there is a 50 cent charge for using card when nothing was posted. At this point I was over it. Won't be back and won't recommend! read more

My little cousin was coming over to visit before starting school and after picking up her from the airport we decided to take her out to eat breakfast. I was looking around for places that was close by to home and saw Rosy's Cafe. Upon arriving we were seated and given the menu to look over. The staff was super kind to us when we got there. We got 2 Breakfast Special #4 (one with bacon and one with sausage), 1 Big Boy 3 Bacon and Eggs, a Waffle with Banana and Pecans, an ice caramel coffee and a vanilla milkshake. Everything came out in a timely manner, big portions and it was delicious! I didn't think my meal will be that filling but it was. Hubby ended up getting full with his meal that we all shared the banana and pecan waffle! I would say we will definitely be coming back here for breakfast again! Maybe we might even come by for lunch one day! read more

I love Rosy and her family.! The food is amazing.! The atmosphere is so perfect. Service is great. Everything about this place is spectacular. Not only are they extremely nice they care about their customers and quality of their food. I always get their "Mexican" options. While my family enjoys their big boy bacon and eggs and Linguica sandwich. Their coffee is one of a kind.! They are so nice they even give my son a togo cup cause he loooooves it so much. read more

Best chile verde omelette I've ever had. Restaurant is on the small size so depending on the time you get there it's going to be somewhat crowded. Overall the food is very good. A really nice change from those chain restaurants.the servers are very pleasant and attentive when they need to be. I would recommend giving this restaurant a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed. read more

We don't frequent this area but it's always the first option when you search on Yelp. We got there and realized that we've been here before. It was okay but nothing to write home about and which is probably why I didn't. But a second visit warrants a review. I got the Special #3, and my boyfriend got the Meat Lover's Omelette. First impressions... omelette was pretty small.. it was gone before I could take a picture. This seems to be the trend... they either cut down on serving size or increase their prices. My scrambled eggs could've been fluffier, french toast could've been better with more butter (which I know I could've asked for but better judgment prevailed). All in all, like before, food was okay. I'm not a pro but I'm pretty sure I can do eggs and omelettes better. Like I've always said, I don't eat out expecting exceptional food. I go out when I don't feel like making the effort; I pay for the service. It's a bonus if the place has both which should earn 5 stars in my book. Not a very big place but no wait time on a Sunday morning even though they seem to have a steady stream of diners. Prices are reasonable compared to most. Someone will greet you right away and you can sit at any table. Very friendly and attentive staff providing quick service... maybe too quick which explains why eggs are not as fluffy . A very generous 4-star rating and worth a visit. read more

I was craving chicken fried steak and extra gravy so I got on Yelp to try a new place out and Rosy's caught my eye! Very homey & cozy ambiance - definitely looked like they make yummy food. I got my food and my boyfriend got the ribeye steak and eggs. They cooked our over easy eggs & crispy hash browns perfect! The batter on my chicken fried steak was soooo light and the steak itself was juicy! The gravy was a tad salty but I didn't mind it too much. We got the pineapple Agua Fresca and the caramel iced coffee- my coffee was too sweet but adding my water in fixed that easily. Basically everything was yum and definitely ask for their salsa!!!! So yummy After you dine, make sure you go up to the register to pay :) read more

Visited Rosy's Cafe once for lunch and then on another day for breakfast. Lunch on a Monday at 1:00 PM. The restaurant was not busy with many table booths available. The vegetarian omelette with home fries and toast were delicious. My guests dining with me enjoyed their hamburger order with French fries. On a Saturday morning at 11:30 AM the restaurant was busy and tables full. Service however was quick. The Mexican breakfast of carnitas omelette was tasty and filling. I will return to this family owned restaurant when in the area again to try other Mexican dishes. Parking is easy in the large lot. The location is not far from the 580 E freeway, Grove Way exit. read more

So sometimes I crave Huevos Rancheros. Always on the hunt. Found Rosy's. Ordered Huevos Rancheros. Ate it all while I watched others order them too. But they also have other great Mexican breakfast options and traditional breakfast. I have been a couple times and got omelets. Really good. The place is small so prepare to wait if going on the weekend. If you bring your kids, be prepared for them to want to buy all the toys they have for sale in the front. Plenty of parking as it is in a small shopping center. I usually take a little nap in the car when I leave here cause of the portion sizes and all the carbs. Lol. Enjoy. read more

Came here this past Saturday for brunch with my husband, and we weren't disappointed! I got the pecan and banana waffle and an orange juice. The total bill for 2 people was about $42. Pros: - Pretty decent food! I was very satisfied with my waffle and the banana pecans was a good combo. My husband liked his food too. - Wide variety of food to choose from - it's like a diner with a Mexican twist. We like that there's sweet and savory stuff to choose from - Seems family oriented - hole in the wall type of vibes - Idk why but I am loving the toys in the background vibe - Not so crowded on a Saturday morning where you have to wait super long to get a table, but not so empty where you're like why isn't anyone eating here. Steady stream of customers coming in all morning through lunch - Service was pretty kind - Food came out pretty fast - Easy parking - Fair prices! Didn't feel overcharged "Cons": - not really a con - but just an assessment. Very reliable and great place to have brunch, but not something I would drive out of the way for or more than 20 mins for. hits the spot though! Basically not a place you would want to go to celebrate an anniversary, but definitely appropriate for a first date or casual brunch with your friends. read more

We had the food here to-go and then came here in-person twice in one week. It's that good! We also got the same dishes because we thought it was so good. I had the huevos rancheros with rice and beans and my partner had the chicken fried steak with hash browns. The huevos rancheros have a really good salsa on it - not too hot but it has a lot of flavor. The eggs were cooked perfectly over easy though I asked for overhard the next time because I don't like too much yolk. The chicken fried steak had really good seasoning and prepared well. The hash browns that came with it was a little soggy to-go but crispy in-house so our preference is definitely to eat inside the store. My partner got Sunnyside up and liked it too, and his hash browns predictably When we called, it took them 20 minutes to prepare our food. Inside the store, it took about 10 minutes to prepare. For both plates and a coffee it was about $30. Pretty reasonable and a lovely mom and pop place. This place has become one of our breakfast go-to places! And they use compostable straws. Service is friendly and the ambiance is casual, with diner booths and tables throughout. They also sell toys and other souvenir items. read more

I stumbled upon this place by chance and I was very impressed. I had the torta with asada and fries my partner had the "Hobo Spicy Special". My torta was so yummy with fresh veggies, cheese and delicious asada. My partners plate was so flavorful and I appreciated how this was not an omelette but more like a skillet. The waitress was kind and attentive. This is definitely a place for locals come to congregate. I will be back! read more

Our food was very good and the service was excellent. My granddaughter and I had a lovely breakfast, where she ate almost all of her pancakes. That's saying a lot for a 3 year old. The staff were so very nice and engaging, telling my granddaughter what a good girl she was. It's important to teach children how they should behave in a restaurant and getting reassurance from "strangers" makes it all the better. read more

This place gets a noble three. Tucked away location. Has not changed since like 1973. Time capsule. Order at the table, pay at the counter.

This diner gives off such positive vibes. From the wall decor to their mugs, it creates a comfortable, homey feeling. Hobo Plate: The egg scramble portion was good, but the biscuits and gravy tasted old and cold. Joe's Special: This was definitely the better option! It was very delicious and a generous portion size. Churro Style French Toast: To my surprise, it was so good! You can taste the churro/cinnamon sugar flavor, and the texture was perfect and not overdone. read more

Pretty good if you're craving some breakfast food! Large Hobo with gravy and biscuit 8/10 ~$11 - thought it came with 2 biscuits but not complaining because it was a decent amount of food for the price - it was potatoes, cheese, sausage, chorizo, bacon, bell pepper, onion, and egg all fries together and it was crispy and cheese was perfectly melted ! (Wasn't super special but hit the spot for my breakfast food cravings) - the gravy tasted like the box mix gravy and the biscuit was dry but it wasn't the star of the show so I didn't really mind Joe's Special 8/10 ~$11 - looked small in the box but as I was eating the omelette felt ginormous! - soooo many toppings in the omelette like mushrooms, beef, spinach, Swiss cheese and I think onions! Felt like it needed more spice but the portion was perfect. - the hash browns were crispy and delicious! Total was $24.26 which is a pretty decent price for breakfast food in the east Bay Area. This place isn't to die for but it's pretty good and I definitely would stop by again to try more things on their menu! (Noticed they started selling birria tacos!!!) As for covid regulations, didn't see much change other than they had take out menus and recommended people to order through the phone. The workers were wearing masks which was good. read more

Stopped for breakfast while in town visiting family. Had a great experience. No wait for seating on a Saturday morning (self seating). Decent size dining room. Servers greet you once you find a table, and take your order when you're ready. I ordered the Kitchen Sink omelette--sub bacon instead of ham + add Swiss and jack cheese. Delicious! Highly recommend. Will probably try the breakfast burrito next time. read more
