Crab cake Benedict, and they use imitation crab and charge $27.49.  Ridiculous.
Elaine Y.

Crab cake Benedict, and they use imitation crab and charge $27.49. I was extremely disappointed given how expensive it was. The side was standard hash browns. After ordering tea (served in a plastic mug) tip, tax, everything was $41.47. Biggest restaurant food purchase regret in a long time. However, the wait staff is nice and its dog friendly. You're basically paying to have a short proximity to the ocean

We stopped in on the way to the beach from Sacramento and it was a cute spot right next to the ocean. It's self seat and you order at the register. The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is definitely a small town feel, like everyone's a friend. We ordered and service was quick! Food tasted fresh and the had fresh squeezed orange juice was amazing.

The food was so good. I forgot take a photo. We had a party melt with tots. Great service.

Good quick breakfast. Food was very bland but not gross. You walk in look at the menus and order at the counter before seating yourself. Food is brought out pretty quickly, employees are nice. Of you need a quick breakfast before getting back on the road this will do.

Pancake $10
Olivia G.

Nice cozy restaurant by the water. We ordered a plate with 2 eggs, 4 slices of bacon, hash browns and bread. We also ordered a side of pancake and French toast. Coffee was a bit strong and I liked it but my husband that drinks it black said it was too strong and bitter. Our meal was just ok the only thing that stood out to us both was the eggs and they were very good and also the raisin toast was good too. Probably won't return. Very expensive for the food being mediocre. The service was good but had to order at front then they serve you at your table.

Greek omelette, extra crispy hash browns, and sourdough bread toast.

Had breakfast here again, this time with just one other person. Service was still top notch and really friendly. You pick up a menu when you enter, then order and pay at the counter. They give you a cone with number on it and you choose a table and take a seat. They bring you the food when it's ready. This time I had the Greek omelette. While their prices are rather high, it's a lot of food. I could only finish half of my meal. It came with hash browns and toast. The omelette was delicious and I asked for my hash browns to be extra crispy and they were exactly that. I asked for sourdough toast and got 2 slices. My friend had the omelette with bacon and avocado and she loved it. I was a bit envious of the raisin bread toast I saw on her plate; it was nice and thick and looked soft on the inside. Our coffee was refilled several times while we sat and chatted and they checked on us without being intrusive. This is the perfect place to dine before going whale watching!!

Carnita crepe
WC N.

Great food, friendly atmosphere, fast service. We went durin lunch on a Sunday. The fish $ chips was a full plate- big enough to share. The carnita crepe was amazing. There's some ocean view if you sit outside. Walk off the meal and take in the view. Wonderful place

We took a short day trip to Pacifica and stopped at Breakers for Sunday brunch. The wait was about 10 minutes, which wasn't bad at all. They offer both indoor & outdoor seating, and the location is really nice, right by the ocean cliffs with great views. You can walk around to sight see a bit before getting seated. For food, we ordered the crab cake benedict and the crab chowder. The chowder was hearty, delicious and had nice chunks of crab meat, must try if you're a fan of crab. The crab cake was a little too greasy and slightly oversalted for my taste, but the eggs benny were cooked perfectly and the hollandaise sauce was spot on. Parking can be a little tricky since there aren't exact designated spots, but we found a space in an alley behind Nick's rockaway. If you're in the area, this is a nice spot for brunch with great ocean views and good food.

The staff gave us excellent service! I asked if we could move to another table with soft seating for my uncle who is arthritis and they did. If you guys are reading this, thank you so much. We appreciate y'all and the food was amazing as well. We will definitely return! The ambiance was lovely as well.

Veggie Omelette, crab omelette and clam chowder with crab meat Cranberry Pecan pancakes
Charlene D.

We went here on a Friday morning/ brunch time. It was pretty busy but very sufficient. The employees were friendly and nice. I noticed one the employees talked to a customer giving some suggestions on chocolate chip waffles and pancakes. I thought that was nice for the employee to go out their way to make a conversation and suggestion for 10 mins! I really love their smoothies and couldn't choose only one. I chose the Tropical Breeze and it was amazing. I had the veggie omelette and added avocados. The cranberry pecan pancake was nice and soft, also something different. My husband had the crab omelette with a side of hollandaise sauce. We both had the clam chowder with crab meat. That was so delicious and tasty! The feel of the restaurant is casual and chill. I felt it was relaxing to eat a nice brunch with the ocean next to us! Will come again to try another smoothie!

Coffee

Staff was very friendly & helpful. You arrive order your food and find a seat. They jad plenty of tables inside. They also had a good size patio but aince it was a little rainy they didn't have it open. They brought our drinks right away and not to long after we got our food. We got a bacon waffle with fried chicken. It was super tasty and portion was big. We stopped here on our way to monterey. We will definetly be back when in the area. You can see the ocean from here if you sit outside.

French toast $7.00 for one slice?? Wow!
Eloy G.

Visited this place while staying nearby and saw the 4 stars so thought I would stop by. First, I have to disagree with the 4+ stars this place has. As you enter you order at the corner. They only have regular and decaf. The coffee was so bitter. There's strong coffee and then there's bitter coffee. This is bitter coffee. Then we went to order and everything has to be ordered separately. So our breakfast between me and my guest cost $70.00 for two meals that would have cost 1/2 price elsewhere. The service lacked. I ran out of coffee and no one stopped by to ask if we needed a refill. The ambiance is nice close to the water with windows to see the partial ocean view. However not worth the price when you can go to Nicks across the street for probably half to 2/3 the price this meal. I won't visit here again. I know value and I know prices. Expensive meals don't bother me unless they don't come with the service and quality you would expect for the price. I wouldn't visit again.

Smoked salmon Omelette
Darryl W.

I got a chance to have breakfast at Breakers breakfast at Rockaway Beach yesterday you can see the waves crashing up on the shore and over the rocks. I took my nephew niece and my great nephew out with me. My wife and my brother and his wife breakfast was good. The service was fast. This is the type of place where you order and then you go sit down by the time you wash your hands and sit down good, take a sip of your coffee. Your breakfast is there on this particular occasion I have the omelette with salmon and spinach. It was actually really good. The hashbrowns were excellent and a nice cup of hot coffee. I could not complain great environment, clean lively in there. There are other people obviously who were there and the staff was very helpful. customer service was excellent and I would highly recommend it. Check out some of the dishes that we enjoyed in the photos

Dogs are allowed on the patio . hanging out for some food

See all

Went here for my birthday dinner back in November and had such a great experience. I'd always…read morewanted to try Moonraker since I visit Rockaway Beach in Pacifica pretty often, and with its location right in the center of everything and those amazing ocean views, it always stood out. One thing I really loved was how easy it was to make a reservation online. Being able to choose your exact table and preview the view ahead of time was such a cool feature and made it easy to pick the perfect spot for a special dinner. The service was amazing from start to finish. We started with the smoked salmon appetizer with grilled baguette, mascarpone, onion, and capers, which was delicious. For my entrée, I had the Dungeness crab cakes with fall vegetables, mashed potatoes, marinated fennel, petite frisée, and caper aioli, and it was incredible. My partner got the lobster mac & cheese, which was rich, flavorful, and definitely did not disappoint. Between the great food, drinks, attentive service, and unbeatable view, it made for such a memorable birthday dinner. I'll definitely be coming back.

Relative 4 stars. Better value and view than Nick's…read more You're coming for the view, which is 5 stars. You can have the same view outside but it's not the same as chilling over lunch and waves from the comfort of being indoors. The food is 3.5 stars relative to other seaside tourist traps, for decent value. The service is 3 stars, good luck hunting down your server. The clam chowder was pretty loaded with seafood and not too viscous (I.e. not too thick with cream). The crab cakes weren't too thick or too floury. Pleasantly surprised on the depth of flavor on seafood pasta too. Would skip prawn cocktail and raw oysters. Oysters oddly had no flavor. Not sweet not briney etc.

If you're looking for a spot in Pacifica with a view that actually makes you forget--if only for a…read moresecond--how much you're spending, Nick's Seafood is the place. I came here for a special birthday meal, and while the bill at the end gave me little heart palpitations, the overall experience was great although I would have appreciated a birthday nod like free dessert or a something. I felt bad about the lack of bday recognition but you live and learn. The vibe here is interesting--it's a bit of a "tale of two rooms." The bar area is dark, moody, and has that classic lounge feel, while the dining side is bright, bustling, and alive with conversation. But let's be honest: you're here for the view. Looking out at the ocean is truly breathtaking and adds a layer of magic to the meal. We started with the prawns appetizer which was a solid setup for the main event. We loved the tangy tartar sauce that paired well with the fried prawn and did not make us feel bloated or greasy. The Crab Sandwich is the star of the show. At first glance, it's a simple "no-frills" situation--just a massive pile of fresh crab and mayo on bread but it is definitely a winner. Theres a reason why the prices don't stop these baby's from flying out of the kitchen faster than the boy's can serve them. Our server, Armando, mentioned that the sandwich is big enough to share. However, since it was a birthday, I figured we deserved our own! It is absolutely huge. I added avocado to mine, but fair warning: it was nearly a $4 upcharge, which felt a little steep. Speaking of the service, Armando was a gracious host and an even better server. Even though we were there close to closing time, the staff remained incredibly attentive. We never felt rushed, and the service stayed top-tier until the end. Now here's my take, for two people (sandwiches, avocado, prawns, and $4 sodas--not sure if refills are free!), the total came to $144 before tax. It is definitely an investment. Between the "market price" crab and the premium add-ons, the costs add up fast. I won't be a weekly regular at these prices, but for a special occasion where you want great service, delicious seafood, and a world-class view, I highly recommend it. I can't wait to come back for the next big celebration!

I got your most basic sausage and cheddar omelette and it did not disappoint! Ample cheese, ample sausage! Toast was great, but very buttery, so beware if you don't eat butter. Friends wanted to sub their sides for biscuits and gravy, and server said she would ask. Any alterations we wanted (extra hollandaise sauce, no bell peppers, etc.) we asked for, our server was kind and showed no annoyance at all, which was greatly appreciated. Coffees are great, drinks are great, and pricing is decent. Went in on a Sunday, got seated in the lounge immediately for a group of 5. I'll be back here for sure if I'm ever in the area!
