Outstanding Service - Family Operated - Amazing Comfort Food What can I say? Biscuits and Gravy, Breakfast Tacos, Avocado Toast - YES Family owned and operated...this translates to unsurpassed customer service. They know customers by name. Restaurant is super clean, has nostalgic photos of Oceanside from 60+ years ago and parking galore. In a town that is reforming, it's nice to see a family run business that caters to locals and vacationers with a heart for the Oside locals that need a little help.

The sad part is I've lived in Oceanside for a long time and I just stumbled across this place for the first time. I enjoyed a BLT with the crispiest bacon and an amazing root beer float which I have had in a very long time. Serviss was pleasant And attentive from the staff in the ambience has that old-school diner field so that was pretty cool. I got spending about an hour and a half in there just kind of eating while waiting for my tires put on my car. Definitely recommend that anyone passing through Oceanside stop by the diner and grab a BLT and a root beer Float.

Outstanding quality food and quantity for the price. Only critique is if they are busy, food can be expected to take some time to come from the kitchen. This is to be expected from a popular breakfast place though! If you are stuck between this and IHOP/Dennys, give 101 Cafe a try, you won't regret it!

Good pit stop for Breakfast before heading to the beach. Eggs and French toast were good. Would come back when we're in the area.

Nice place similar to the one01 in Encinitas which is the original restaurant. This one is an Oceanside off the road. They've got a front area facing the road and the side area and inside seating plenty of seating and plenty of parking.

Great Breakfast! Really good selection of all the breakfast classics. Lots of seating. Smaller diner with cozy booths and extra seating on the outside. It's a seat yourself as you walk in scenario. Water is brought out followed by some pretty quick service. Servers are pretty friendly and the food is always great!
