    The service at this place is excellent with the entire staff working together to table touch. Everyone that walked past us asked us if we needed anything. They had many menu options with great prices. The food was great and the restaurant was very clean considering it was very busy. We will definitely be visiting again soon.

    I'm staying in the area for a bit and wanted to have a good breakfast. I stumbled upon this place after some Google searches and boy...it didn't disappoint. The menu is a but big but I decided on a latte and a blueberry waffle. It was heaven. The price is great and the service was also great. They made sure to keep checking on me. The waffle was so perfectly crispy and soft on the inside. The yogurt sauce on top was so yummy. It almost didn't need the syrup even though I used a little. I'm mad I don't live in the area. 100% coming back when I'm in the area again!

    HUGE portions. We should have shared. Delicious breakfast/lunch restaurant on main drag in San Pedro only 1 mile from cruise terminal. Large menu. We needed to fuel up before our cruise and this place was two blocks from our hotel. They have bar seating, outdoor seating and a good sized dining room. Great coffee! We ordered the sausage, bacon and cheese omelette and lemon pancakes. Three large pancakes with choice of protein and eggs. So delicious. Great, friendly service and kept our coffee cups full. Great prices too. Eggs Benedict for $12.50?! They are on our list for restaurants when we cruise out of San Pedro. Delicious, fast, hot. They close at 3 but now offer a happy hour. Great place!

    Really impressed with the wide variety of sides.

    There were SO many things I wanted to try on my first visit. At the suggestion of the owner/chef who was bussing tables and cleaning, I went with the El Pollo Verde Omelet. DELISH. You can taste the freshness and authentic flavors. I had a choice of side and a bread. So many choices! I got Spanish brown jasmine rice. So good. Not your traditional Spanish rice but full of flavor. My bread was hard to pick too but I went with rye. The meal is massive and sooooo reasonably priced. I'm mad and sad I don't live closer but my waistline is definitely happy I don't. Savannah was super sweet. Very nice server and patient with all of my first timer questions. The place had a western diner vibe. They have patio and indoor seating. Parking is bad. They do have their own lot in the back but the place is busy. There are public lots on 7th and 8th.

    Lemon Pancakes with combo add on (2 eggs and 2 bacon)
    Jamie M.

    I was looking online to see if anything in the area looked good for breakfast and came across a review mentioning Lemon Pancakes so I figured I'd give San Pedro Cafe a try. Immediately upon entry, I noticed that the restaurant was fairly full for a Monday morning so that was a good sign. I was seated immediately but then it took a minute for my server to come and check on me, even though I mentioned I was ready to order. All was forgotten when my lemon pancakes made their way to the table. 3 huge fluffy pancakes smothered in sour cream and topped with a single strawberry. (I opted for the combo so mine had the 2 bacon and 2 eggs as well.) I felt the price was fair for what I ordered (pancakes were $9.99 and the combo add on was $4.50 I think)

    Café by day and fabulous upscale diner by morning, with service that makes you smile -- it's the kind of place I'd go to every day if I lived in walking distance. The coffee flows without asking, and the food is delicious. San Pedro offers portions, buzzing ambience, and immensely friendly service by a team that seems happy and eager to help. Fantastic!

    I took my mom and her helper to see the Korean Friendship Bell. After admiring the craftsmanship of the bell, and enjoying the beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean, we were ready to eat! Our helper Yelped for a brunch place nearby, and came up with San Pedro Cafe. The parking in the back was packed, luckily someone was leaving so we took their space. The restaurant was dimly lit with lots of wood. Nice staff sat us at a table, and made room for my mom in her wheelchair. We ordered: - garlic parmesan fries - 1/2 tuna sandwich on squaw bread with vegetabl soup - Chilaquiles - Strawberry Walnut Salad with Arugula, green & red leaf, spinach, candied walnuts, sliced strawberries, sliced almonds and orange wedges. Tossed in our honey balsamic and topped with tortilla wedges. I added chicken for an additional $2.95. HUGE PORTIONS with soda in HUGE glasses. Everything was fresh and delicious, our group had a great experience. Thanks Yelp for another great find!

    came here on a friday AM bc my dad has been wanting to try their breakfast, one of his nurses was raving about their toasts... ive ate here before after a hike with my girlfriends, i remember it being really busy on the wknds and huge portions! so the fam and i grabbed a table outside bc my pups was with us. service was great and friendly, the service was a but slower towards the end, but maybe it was me bc i needed to get back to work lol ordered to share: blueberry pancakes the deli omelet homemade corned beef hash ted's special weekly detox the prices were really fair and reasonable! portions were huge. we were all able to share and it was all really delicious!! the highlight would be their homemade banana bread!!! get it! it is sooo good! def will be back to order a loaf! our server even gave my furbaby a bowl of water and milk bones :D parking: there is a lot behind the restaurant, free for 3 hrs!

    Reuben w Mac n cheese
    Jessica S.

    Yummm. I've been here 2x now and I'm in love ha Tony is great and he recommended the Reuben. (I subbed cole slaw for sauerkraut). He recommended Mac n cheese as the side. It also came w mustard and a pickle and a side of Cole slaw (which was so good). I didn't get my corned beef fix for st Patrick's day so super happy to get some home made pastrami. Way better than the deli pastrami at other places (classics) and more reasonably priced and comes with a side compared to the sandwich shops (saloon and busy bees). Service was great both times. Never rushed. Nice ambience. Nice music. Covered Outdoor seating too. Loved the crunchy French toast for breakfast (I didn't need the fruit). It was so big! The biscuits and gravy was amazing. And we had a slice of that bread which was homemade. Next time I'll try the tri tip combo w onion rings Happy customer :)

    breakfast burrito french toast
    Tiffany V.

    came here for breakfast after a hike nearby and it was very enjoyable. the prices are very reasonable and there are so many options on the menu. i tried the breakfast burrito and the french toast, as well as an espresso martini. all were enjoyable! service was friendly. i sat outside because i had a dog with me but food came out quickly regardless. server went on break but was so communicative in letting us know that someone else would be checking on us in the meantime. it made our experience so pleasant.

    Service was fantastic and food was delicious! I will return next time in town. That's all I've got to say.

    Sausage patties (3)
    Katelynn R.

    Food was home made and absolutely delicious. Staff were friendly and attentive even though they were super busy (Sunday breakfast rush). All of this food was under $70 for four people! Food was worth every penny. Inside was clean, busy, with a comfy diner feel. This is a Pedro staple!

The breakfast potatoes were thinly sliced and nice and crispy, which surprisingly is hard to find in a diner. The iced tea was strong and plentiful.

When we first came here, we met Mona, one of the owners, and she was fantastic. She was out on the floor, checking on guests, making sure everything was running smoothly, and her hospitality made our visit memorable. That's exactly why we kept coming back. My husband and I came in today and sat in the last booth on the far right side of the restaurant. It wasn't very busy, so I expected decent service, but that wasn't the case. Our waitress never introduced herself, avoided making eye contact, and didn't seem very attentive. We both ordered the marinated steak bites and eggs. My husband's order came out correctly, but mine was served with a sirloin steak instead of the marinated steak bites--and yes, there is a difference. The steak was rubbery and difficult to eat. It honestly felt more like a frozen TV dinner than a freshly prepared meal. Throughout the meal, our waitress never came back to check on us, ask how the food was, or offer condiments or coffee creamer. I had to flag down the busboy for help. At this point, the busboys deserve recognition because they were far more attentive than our server. It also seems like the service is much better when the owners are there. I'm really disappointed with both the food and the service. To top it off, our bill came to $54, plus an additional card fee. It's disappointing because we know this restaurant is capable of providing a great experience--we've had one before. I hope management sees this review and takes it as an opportunity to improve because this restaurant has a lot of potential, but experiences like this make it difficult to want to return.

The partnership began in 2007, and continues today. Our location is located outdoors, opposite to the El loco Fresh mexican cantina. It is an a la carte menu, very focused on burgers, fries and shakes. I've never tried a burger from them on a ship, but decided to try an ice cream shake (since it's not offered at any of the complementary eating places). We were on a back to back cruise on the Navigator, so once we were back on the boat, waited till 11 am (when they opened) to get two shakes (oreo and strawberry). Normally $5.50 (non-alcoholic), any previous sailing customer (i.e. someone with at least one previous sailing on RC) will get two 50% 'coupons' for a shake. Everything onboard automatically gets charged a 18% gratuity, so total for each shake was $3.54 (including the LA tax since I got it while in port). Like everything else here, it gets charged to the room, being settled up right after we disembark. The shakes were handmade, using soft serve vanilla ice cream as the base. Oreo crumbles or strawberry syrup was added along with milk, to make a pretty decent shake. Enjoying it right now while writing this review when I still have cell service before we head back to Mexico.

There is a free parking lot attached on the side of the building so parking is very easy and inside is pretty large with booth seating as well as regular table seating. They also have outdoor seating as well, but it was a bit windy on the day we stopped in. Our server was very polite and everything that we ordered came out very fast. They also had a very large amount of limited time specials so I had to take them up on one of those options. We started off with the coffee cake and I thought it was pretty good although it was gigantic. I'm a bit more of a fan of the gooier coffee cake and this was a bit cake ear but still it was enjoyable. I also tried the spicy turkey chili and thought that was a 10 out of 10.
