  It doesn't look like much on the outside and even looks closed but they make a pretty good breakfast. Inside is that old country diner feel, greasy spoon food! Daily specials are great, good portions and an all you can eat fish fry on Friday's. I really enjoy the biscuits and gravy but have had the meatloaf and French dip which was actually pretty good. It's out of the way but i do drive down once a week to grab breakfast, it worth giving it a try if you are in the area!

  My family and I have been coming here pretty much since it opened and we have never had a negative experience.  Food is great, service is better and the prices are the best.  The owner is friendly and willing to go the extra mile to ensure your satisfaction.  Highly recommended!!!!!!!!

  Went here with friends for breakfast. Perfect little hole in the wall type of establishment, looks like the floors were recently redone, but the rest of the place looked it's age. It's fine, they don't cater to a fancy crowd, they keep their menu simple (albeit large) and prices according to the area. The republican eyes were plentiful, since it was SD Pride weekend and I happen to wear a rainbow colored baseball long sleeve tshirt, and short shorts, I could feel the Judgy McJudgerson looks from men & women alike.
  
  Patrons aside, food was good, portions were right, and service was friendly and fast. Not sure if I'd come back if given the choice, but Lakeside/Winter Gardens only has so much of a choice maybe, unless we go to a chain like Dennys or Ihob(ihop?) or something like that.

  Worst service immanagable. Food was burnt on the outside and under cooked on the inside. Owner swears that's how everyone likes it. Ridiculous excuse for a bad cook. I've been coming to this place since I was a kid and never again. Time before this food was just ok.

  Did the "breakfast near me" challenge. Found this restaurant while driving out in East County - San Diego. It appears to be sort of a hole in the wall place. Old decorations, possible usual crowd type of people. Prices on the food seem to be very fair. Several small tables and a couple of booths throughout the dinning room. Purchased the breakfast for obvious reasons. Tried the "Cowboy Breakfast" and some french toast, with orange juice to wash it all down. Food came out no problems, hot and ready. Tasted fresh and about the same as Janet's Cafe, a good breakfast to start the day. Recommend givng this place a try. I will be coming back to try something on the lunch menu in the future. Also to note, all staff members polite and courteous-during the visit.
