Katia M.October 17, 2015This place worth the hype! It takes a lot of skills to make simple things so tasty. Eggs are perfection, corned beef is so good, you keep dreaming about it... Service is super friendly and efficient.
Noel ClarkeJuly 26, 2016"Googled" Best breakfast in SanDiego and this place came up. Didn't let me down. Very good food, if you don't mind waiting in the line down the block. that shows how good it is. Get here if you can.
Best pancake syrup ever!! It's nice and hot when you get it and its very sugary sweet but very light! It's very real syrup and "straight from the source" taste! :)
Erica Arnold NanceDecember 2, 2023Everything we had was amazing! They let us split our order so we could both try the AMAZING baked omelette, delicious bacon & filling pancakes. The coffee is so good here too! Can’t go wrong.
Ivan MJanuary 13, 2016Pecan Baked Pancakes and the traditional pancake flight (2 Pancakes of each of 3 flavor you choose) along with coffee and orange juice are the best options
- Peyton KellerMarch 12, 2017The ham and cheese oven baked omelette was awesome. The chocolate pancakes with whipped cream on it was amazing. The cherry crepes were also very good!!
Nayef 86 - GeminiMarch 16, 2017You don't need review to read about this restaurant, just walk in and you are going to love everything. Just be aware that it's full size plates "huge".
Jake HOctober 31, 2017The pancakes are some of the best I’ve had in San Diego! The portions are big and filling. The combination of their delicious omelettes and pancakes on the side is unexpected yet perfect combination.
Amazing gluten-free waffles and thick, delicious coffee. Super efficient and friendly service and tasty straight-forward coffee.
Kevin PrattSeptember 9, 2014The house coffee is by Prime Roasted Coffee. The cup is a medium dark roast with light aromatic, light mouth and light acidity. Mostly a clean, likely washed, savory sunflower seed mid-large body.
Stephanie SabolSeptember 16, 2012I would definitely come back. Best omelette I had while visiting San Diego of the 5 breakfast joints I visited. Bacon was to die for and the hash browns perfectly cooked. Come check this place out!
Preston Melbourne-WeaverJuly 20, 2013Mediterranean omelette was delish. Coffee is a notch above the normal shiz they serve at breakfast places. Good pancakes. Got banana with pecan. Can't really go wrong. Bring your own paper.
GeauxDC FoodieOctober 20, 2016There was a line and there was food and both were worth it. I am still full from the reasonably priced beautiful German pancake. When can I go back?
Peanut .June 1, 2014The service is super fast and super friendly. The portions are huge so sharing is a great idea. It is a must for all pancake lovers when in San Diego.
Melanie GreeleyJuly 2, 2016I had the baked apple pancake. It was incredibly delicious and huge (had to take half of it home). The service was great too!
The baked omelettes are great and also try the famous baked apple pancake, it is awesome as well but too much for 1 person.
Ana BustosDecember 30, 2017Everything is so delicious , you have to wait line 40 minutes to be seated , but totally worth it !! Be careful the portions are too big .
SAugust 9, 2014The waiting was almost 25 min but it was totally worth it ❤️❤️ the baked pecan pancake was heavenly 👏
Sara AhmedFebruary 1, 2017This place have raised the standards of breakfast spots for me .. Apple pancake .. Omelette.. Even the plain pancake is perfect!!!!💘😭
Khalifa Al DhaheriFebruary 8, 2015They make huge and delicious Pecan pancakes, be careful.. It's too hot and fresh !!
Torrence DavisSeptember 24, 2011Always a long line and a very small venue. You will be sitting close to a stranger. Food is served fast and is very good. Don't leave San Diego without checking it out.
Jasper BrugmanNovember 25, 2015Special Apple Pancake with cinnamon. The best! And you won't be hungry for a whole afterwards.
Jonny EberleJuly 18, 2013The staff is great, very attentive and friendly. The food is incredible. Pancakes the size of your head! I'm definitely coming back.
Aman SDecember 21, 2018The San Diego French Toast was delicious but the glasses were dirty and had to ask twice to get them replaced.
Bashayer KhalidAugust 11, 2016Love the idea of "how to eat Richard Walker's Pancake" it's one the rarest things to see in any restaurant.
Alex PinaAugust 1, 2017This was my omelette. It didn't last long. Neither did the side of pancakes. So yummy!
Andrew HillApril 18, 2013Excellent scrambled eggs and waffle. They know exactly had to make both. Order the eggs ala carte to go with your waffle.
Brandi MendozaFebruary 26, 2014Good quick service & clean, great pancakes & challa French toast bacon a little over cooked for my taste overall very good.
Anthony VanJuly 9, 2014Can't go wrong with anything on the menu! Service is quick! The host made up for the lack of oersonal service
Ramzi L.July 18, 2016Excellent food in SD. Service was great and food was delicious. Worth giving it a try.
Holla at the Challah French toast then order a side of potato pancakes. Good coffee and fresh squeezed O.J too!
Ariel BehlerMay 27, 201210 bucks for two orange juice! Really sweet too. Food portions are big so good amount for what you pay. Up beat place for a nice brunch!
Jeff CulpepperAugust 14, 2018Wow stand in line. This was amazing. From the coffee to the pancakes. Highly recommended!!!!!!

Agnieszka JanowskaJanuary 12, 2013Pancakes are the size of a house! Definitely for sharing. Apple and baked cinnamon pecan were both really really good.
Liz NuñoMarch 28, 2016You need to get early, but it's totally worth it! Pecan pancakes 4 SHARING, but amazing!!!!
Ryan SequeiraApril 28, 2019You can get different flavors of pancakes or waffles in one order. Great for sharing
Joyce TompsettJuly 6, 2019Food is good but not worth the lines, the prices and the way the staff treats it all like an assembly line. Not a place you can relax and enjoy breakfast.
Mila FrerichsFebruary 15, 2017Pancakes. Just awesome. You get at least five. No need for side dishes :)
