First time visiting was this past Saturday evening, 05-16-26. I pulled up around 5:15p. Plenty of…read moreparking was available. I like how it sits in the cut of the parking lot. I like the front entrance. They also have a side entrance but it's not as appealing to the eyes. A handful of tables outside in a patio area with a couple of TVs. When you walk in, it's like walking into a wine bar. At least that's the vibe I received. But it's a small family restaurant. Which is dope. Look like I arrived just in time for happy hour. The bar area gives this chill and intimate vibe especially with the many wine bottles being displayed. And the bartender is right there to service you with no problems. Everyone was welcoming and friendly. Even the two older women who didn't decide to speak until Barbara the bartender sat a bit late of fried calamari in front of me lol. That indeed sparked great conversation amongst the 3 of us. Talking about calamari and sone other restaurants. I'm used to drinking my Moscow Mules out of copper cups so this grey one was different and it was smaller in size but the drink itself was definitely refreshing. Wasn't tryna rush it lol. And It's $7.20 during happy hour. The calamari for me could have been seasoned better or more. I also would've preferred it to be fried a lil bit longer. I love mines crispy or a lil bit hard and not so chewy. With that being said, Barbara said to let them know next time. However, I believe it's a popular item and I could see why, especially with the portion size. It's very generous indeed. For $10.80 I would too. Barbara made me a Mojito and it was perfect. Very refreshing. Took my time with that also lol. A price of $7.20 you can't beat that at all. Very good price I must add. I personally think and feel like the filet mignon tacos were fire. No lie. It was tender. It was flavorful. Good portion size. I liked the presentation and flavors coming from everything. They're not street tacos either lol I would definitely get those again but I think they're only available during happy hour. 2 tacos for $10.80 during happy is an awesome deal. Before I left I thanked everyone for their service and even had the opportunity to chop it up with some staff members. Everyone was real cool. Fasho fasho. Barbara even introduced me to the chef on my way out. I believe his name is Angel. Great dude !!! and we also had a great conversation. I love the location. I love the service. I love the vibes and I love the food. Check em out for yourself if you're in the area or just wanna take a ride to somewhere new. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

I have been wanting to try their eggs Benedict. They offer more than a half dozen options…read more Those of you who know eggs Benedict know it's all about the hollandaise sauce. Seaside Bistro claims homemade hollandaise. It is TERRIBLE, and COLD! It is also too sweet. What? I make hollandaise from scratch and the ingredients are simple: egg yolks, lemon juice, butter, salt, pepper and a little cayenne. I doubt that it was made scratch "in house", maybe they had a starter that they stirred together so they can say "homemade." Any way it was horrible, too thin, too sweet, not enough acid and not warm. The English muffin, ham, eggs and potatoes were good though. We were the only people in the restaurant at 9:30am and the service was lacking. Our server was on her phone and never came to check on us. We had to yell for her attention. I had high hopes but was disappointed. Stay away from the eggs Benedict.

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Today, I'm at O&WS. Since I prefer omelettes over waffles, I got…read morethe #3 Avocado, Bacon and Cheese Omelette and a cup of coffee. Pretty, pretty, pretty good. For the omelette, the hero was the avocado. The rich and creaminess texture from the avocado made the omelette that much more enjoyable. The toast was crunchy and buttery. The coffee was a nice medium roast. The home-fried potatoes were good. However, I prefer mine a little more crispier. Seating is available at the counter, booths and in the small patio area. Service was very friendly and prompt. There is a very small parking area. I opted to park in the residential area. TY for the owner's response. Definitely will be back to try a new meal. Kudos to the high commitment of the owner for customer satisfaction!

It's a classic diner type restaurant that serves good quality food at a reasonable price. It took me a minute to select an omelette since there were so many options on the menu. But I ultimately settled on the avocado, bacon, and cheese omelette. It came with home fried potatoes. The omelette, on its own, was pretty good. It was hearty and filling. However, when paired with their slightly spicy salsa (which doesn't come with the dish, but you can ask for), it was fantastic. Seriously, ask for the salsa. You'll thank me later. Can't say much about the home fried potatoes. The potatoes were good, but nothing special. The same can be said about the service. I don't have anything good or bad to say about it. The server did everything you would expect from a server, nothing more, nothing less. One note about this establishment before I conclude this review. They prefer cash. If you pay with a card, they will charge you an extra $1.50.

I've tried many of the other restaurants in the area and for some reason had missed this one because I don't live close by. This past weekend I gave it a try and thought it was terrific. 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. I absolutely loved the amount of spice and it had some really great flavors. For my breakfast, I chose one of the specials, which was the Carne Asada Chilaquiles and thought it was terrific. It was a ton of meat and it was honestly more than I could finish, but I really enjoyed trying to. I would definitely recommend and would stop again next time I'm in the area.

Their service was great - super friendly and they even brought fans to keep flies away from our table. There was just one fly but they immediately came and let us use the fan which gave us a great impression. Food was generous and one dish was more than enough for two, but me and my husband each ordered a plate along with a bowl of clam chowder, onion rings and pancake w/fries for the kids to share so we had a ton to take home too haha The food didn't surprise me as much; The clam chowder wasn't what I expected but their fries and onion rings were good! All in all we had a great experience and would love to come back again! I also loved the interior!

The decor had lots of pictures of old San Pedro mixed with a nautical theme. The music was classic rock which I really like. I chose the barbecue Tri-tip wagyu with fries without salt. I paired my lunch with a bottle of Heineken. The beer was served with a chilled glass mug and was cold. Service was excellent and very friendly. Tri-tip was good, not outstanding. I don't like fries that are pre-coated. I prefer plain cut potatoes fir my fries. I am still on the hunt for my favorite barbecue place

Inside is beautiful and Bailey was our server. She was super knowledgeable and walked us through the food items we should definitely try. Thank you Bailey for the wonderful service. The Peruvian scallops were another level in flavors. We also tried the fatty tuna tostada, cheesy egg toast, biscuit and gravy and the fried chicken. everything was super good. You can tell they put a lot of thought behind each dish. We also tried some drinks. Mahalo at your boy and bergamot spritz. I really enjoyed mahalo at your boy because the flavors were simple but together were beautiful. My boyfriend enjoyed his spritz. I tasted it and I'm not a huge fan of gin but I could tell that is something a gin drinker would like.

Most of us left with to go containers, their portions are very generous! Two in our party had the Swordfish Milanese, excellent; two had sandwiches, Blackened Chicken and Italian Mortadella, excellent; and I had the Blue Cheese Iceberg Salad with a bowl of Jim's Clam Chowder, both were excellent! Parking was easy. They have a large lot onsite. We went at lunch time and it was crowded, yet still open parking spots! I have heard great things about Trani's and it really lived up to its reputation.

The vibes are vibing. I loved listening to one of the guys in the kitchen sing. 5 stars for service My server had amazing energy and was very accommodating to every type of customer who came in, including those who were a little rough around the edges. She let me stay past closing so I could finish my iced tea and do some more work on my laptop. 5 stars for food It was a perfect Denver omelette, well cooked with plenty of cheese and peppers and Ham and onions nicely diced. 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. I realize that diner fare is not typically considered five-star cuisine, but for what they do, they did excellently. A perfect lunch experience. No notes. It's very small inside, but there's a patio in the back. Parking is free but limited.
