Mediocre at best.
We came here for breakfast. Had to go outside to look at the breakfast sign they set out every day.
The food was ok. But very expensive for what we got!
Huevas rancheros was very disappointing. Wasn't good at all. Avocado toast just didn't have much on it. Breakfast burrito was a bit bland. And we also had the pancakes with eggs and bacon, 2 coffees and 2 sunny side up eggs ($2each). Over $70. There are nicer restaurants in the area with better food, great atmosphere and are sit-down that's cheaper than this.
Service was great though. Very friendly.

I love this place. I’ve been coming here since it was captain culver’s…. Over 20 years ago… and the things I’m obsessed with are:
1. Bombay Melt (curried chicken with secret Bali sauce, tomato, onion, and cheese atop an English muffin) served with soup of the day, green salad, or potato salad
2. POG- passionfruit, orange, guava juice.
They also have delicious smoothies.
The place is owned by Mauricio but you’ll often find his daughters working the restaurant. :)
They are lovely people with excellent customer service.
You can sit inside or outside. It’s a very laid back vibe. You order at the counter, and then they will bring your food out to you or call you when it’s ready.
The only thing you need to know, is sometimes they close a little early.. even though their hours are usually till 16:00, I’ve found them closed at 15:00 or 15:30. I suspect it all depends on how busy they are. So, if you want an afternoon snack, I recommend you call ahead to make sure they are still open.

I've been a patron at this establishment for over 25 years, dating back to its days as Captain Culvers. However, in recent times, I've noticed a decline in the quality of the food. On my most recent visit, I ordered a chicken salad to go, and unfortunately, it will be my last time here. The cost of the salad was $15, and to my dismay, it contained a mere half-cup of chicken salad along with a few carrots, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Notably absent were the sprouts, cashews, and avocado that were promised in the description.
Adding to my disappointment, the server neglected to use gloves while handling the food. I observed her using her bare hands in direct contact with the lettuce. This lack of adherence to basic cleanliness standards, coupled with the insufficient amount of chicken salad for the price, left me thoroughly dissatisfied. It was evident that she lacked concern for the quality of service provided.
