    Food: 3/5 Service: 5/5 Atmosphere: 5/5 The atmosphere is warm and bustling, classic diner vibes. Service is quick to seat you and is generally friendly. We got: - California burger: it was a bit much, overly oily and I did not finish it, the fruit wasn't the softest ripest either but it was okay, kept cold - scrambled eggs, bacon, hash browns: okay as well, bacon is crispy enough, hash browns tasted bland and overly oily I didn't love the food but the overall place is decent. There's a lot in front of the diner for parking which we found a spot easily in at 10am on Monday

    Vanilla creamer

    Parking lot is tight. Entry is on the side. Busy but I was sat right away. Nice staff. Oldies radio station playing. Ceiling fans I am sure keep it cooler but it also blows my hair into my mouth the entire time. Senior menu. Coffee is weak. They do have vanilla creamer if you ask. Ordered Eggs Florentine and added Canadian bacon and onions and peppers on my hash browns which was forgotten and came on a different plate after. English muffin was burnt and black and covered up with Hollandaise. There is no way the cook didn't see what he was covering. Hollandaise is strong and thick. Canadian bacon was thick. Spinach was fresh. Eggs were way overcooked - no sexy egg dripping - solid all the way through. Every thing needs to be seasoned. I don't think they season while they cook at all. I won't be back.

    My fiancé & I wanted to go out for breakfast and decided to check out this place. I've actually never been here before but we wanted to try somewhere new. I ordered the country fried steak & eggs. For my two sides I got the cottage cheese and dollar pancakes. I enjoyed my country fried steak and they had good cottage cheese (some places don't lol). The pancakes were okay. My fiancé got the Canadian bacon & eggs. For his two sides he got hash browns and biscuits & gravy. He really loved the biscuits & gravy, he said it was so good. He enjoyed his Canadian bacon as well but said he would probably order them crispier next time. He didn't like the hash browns that much though, he said some parts tasted cooked good and some didn't. Overall though, we enjoyed our meal! It was a good first time experience. Their menu is also pretty big. I didn't see a lot of menu photos on here so I made sure to take pics of the whole thing. I definitely want to come back to try some of their lunch items next time and maybe even dessert. We also got seated pretty quickly and parking was fine. :)

    You must eat here it's so cool and they're so nice! And the food is so awesome they gave us this cool little salsa boat and they're fast. Has a small diner vibe. Nice music and friendly service :) i definitely recommend. A new favorite. Also the prices are not outrageous which is so nice these days.

    Pancakes and crunchy taco
    Tania L.

    I have been wanting to try this place for a while now. Finally came around to getting to try it and it was fantastic. The food is delicious and the menu is rather large, so something for everyone. I wanted to try everything, I did get some pancakes which were a classic staple for dinner / brunch spots. I even got a crunchy taco which was so good and they give salsa on the side to dress the taco up. The ambience is very casual and the place is not super large but they make use of all the space pretty well. The service was great and we were seated right away. I'm only bummed they aren't open later most days. I also wasn't a big fan of the coffee, it was a little on the light side for my taste but not bad. I would come back and try something new because they have so many options, it all sounded so tasty. I would say this is a much better version of a local chain breakfast spot. Don't let the outside fool you, and be carful not to pass the parking lot since there is only one entrance/ exit area.

    We were unfamiliar with it, but stopped by Amy's because it was near my daughter's house and near the freeway to head home. I'm so glad we took the chance! This is a small establishment next to a motel (wasn't too excited for that, thinking it would be crowded). The parking lot is very small with small parking spaces. The inside is homey and seemed to be filled with locals not motel guests. We were seated immediately with drink and food orders taken soon after. There were five of us but the food still came out quickly. I ordered my standard biscuit and gravy breakfast which is definitely not their specialty. Later I saw that they offered menudo but I didn't see it on the menu and I was sad because I would rather have had that. Oh well, I'll need to come back. I'm sorry I didn't take photos of the food. Lunch is served all day and the Parmesan burger was really good. They have hot sauce on the table but also offer a trio of salsas for your food and they were all really good. I recommend Amy's; it isn't fancy at all but offers good satisfying food!

    I had a family member give us a certificate for Amy's so my sister and I decided to give it a try. We went on a Monday afternoon a bit before 2 and we saw they close around 3 on every day besides Tuesday so we wanted to make it a fast trip. Walking in we saw the restaurant was a bit slow and there were only 2 other customers there. Very cute little diner with paintings and little decorations. I got the Ham, Turkey, and Bacon club with onion rings and my sister got the avocado burger with fries. They were both delicious and it took me by surprise that the restaurant was as slow as it was with such good comfort food. The waitress we had was so nice and attentive she checked in 3-4 times and we didn't have a single complaint. The serving size was so big especially for the prices. I would totally recommend coming to check them out.

    First time coming here place was a little very busy. Staff was nice and friendly and food was good. Place seemed to be clean. I would give this place another try. The only thing parking is a little rough small parking lot and the rest of the parking is for a hotel only.

    Egg Benedict
    Stef M.

    Well I visited here twice this trip and had the eggs Benedict delicious big portions . My friends had the omelette which came with TWO sides a lot of food and no complaints.The bisc and gravy was good . The waiter was un believable he was so accurate and speedy . The place seems busy but not hard to get a table . Definitely returning

    Chilaquiles scramble with chorizo and eggs over medium
    Carrie U.

    Went here for the first time yesterday and was really impressed. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Food was delicious. I had the chilaquiles skillet with chorizo and home fries. Portions were big. I'm planning on going back next week!!!

    Inside

    Don't be fooled by the parking lot, this diner is a hidden gem! Everything we had was delicious, the service was fast (especially for a Saturday morning!) and we would highly recommend! The only downside was that the menu had so many great options it was hard to decide

    Chicken Enchilada
    Daryl E.

    Usually come here for breakfast since the omelettes are very nice portions and reasonably priced. (And the service is always A+) Decided to pop in for lunch the other day and tried the two taco plate with a chicken enchilada on the side. Two taco plate came with chips and salsa - you can tell the chips are made in house, Salsa is very tasty. Tacos were well made Chicken enchilada was the star, very well made. Can't go wrong with this place.

    Are the hours different? I don't see them open like how Yelp says at 7 am.

    So did Amy's move to another location? Sad to see it closed.

    I'm here at the one on Magnolia and it's open. This is my first time here so don't know if there was any other location. Hopefully that answered your question 😊

I personally prefer the garage directly behind the hotel; it's a bit pricier than the lots a couple blocks away, but the convenience is worth it. While I'm a regular at the lounge, this was my first time trying the restaurant. I booked a table online just in case, but walk-ins were welcome. We celebrated my husband's birthday here for Saturday brunch and chose the outdoor Spanish patio. Despite the hot weather, the patio was surprisingly cool and comfortable, thanks to excellent umbrella coverage. The food was outstanding. I ordered the Classic Breakfast which is their Eggs Benedict served over biscuits. The Prime Rib French Dip was so good, with perfectly light-toasted, soft bread. Kudos to the kitchen on both, taste and presentation! What truly sets this place apart is the hospitality. The service is easily some of the best I've ever experienced. From the welcoming hostess to the efficient food runners, everyone was genuinely friendly. A huge shoutout to our server, Maria I., who was absolutely awesome and kept our brunch flawless. Even management stopped by to check on us. The entire team seems genuinely happy to be there. The restaurant is clean, well-organized, and maintains a beautiful business-casual atmosphere. As a first-timer to the restaurant side, I was thoroughly impressed. We had a wonderful birthday celebration and will definitely be back!
