    Such an awesome local place! Picked up a couple of bagel sandwiches (highly recommend the Land Lubber) and we were in and out in 5 minutes. It does get pretty packed on the weekends so come early. Not that much seating indoors but you're just a few minute walk from the beach. Come support a local business!

    An order of fries.
    Ry T.

    Unclear of the high ratings. Maybe we ordered the wrong stuff. We had just visited the Pacifica pier and wanted to support this neighborhood business. Hubby ordered the fish and chips which came with 3 pieces of fish. I didn't try it. It looked very generic previously frozen fish. I wanted chicken tenders as nothing else on the menu interested me. They ran out. I ended up with regular fries for under $7 which was a generous portion but they were just frozen ones they heated up. Like what can get at the supermarket, Ore Ida. Outdoor seating was casual and limited seating inside. The paper towel trash bin was over flowing in the bathroom.

    Gangsta wrap
    Sushant Z.

    Delicious gangsta wrap and smoked salmon bagel. Will definitely be back for a casual pick me up breakfast. Coffee was also excellent. Literally is a shack and a hidden (or maybe not so hidden) gem. Lots of locals pouring in. We hung out on the patio and it was relaxing to hear the waves.

    Blueberry Scone
    Auggie L.

    Went for Breakfast Food - 5/5. Blueberry scone was in the American style: sweet, buttery, and fluffy. Matcha-looking-at had a great blended consistency with just the right amount of sweetness to pair with the earthy, bitter flavors of matcha. The gangsta wrap was an excellent breakfast item, combining all the best flavors and textures of breakfast in one bite. The sausage and eggs were savory, the avocado and cheese added creaminess, the hash browns were rich and crispy, and the salsa brightened everything up with its vibrant taste. Tortilla was thin and just toasted enough to have that satisfying, light bite. Service - 4/5. Quick and friendly. You order at the counter and food is brought to your table. Water was self-service. Value - 5/5. Prices are standard for the area with the pastry being $5, large drinks $8 and the wrap in the mid $10s. Flavors were good and the portions were fine. Nice breakfast location. Parking - Street (Free)

    Everything bagel the add ons are the Italian.

    After our walk at the pier, I headed to Cafe Pacifica. It's a great little spot. I ordered a vanilla latte with oatmilk and an everything bagel (an Italian) and I was able to scrambled eggs. It was awesome. The Cafe has a small seating area inside as well as a larger outside patio area. It was cool but it was a gorgeous day.

    Breakfast!

    Goto spot for breakfast with the family. Local spot. After our morning walks we head on over for some pancakes, eggs, and has browns. Burgers are filling and full of flavor. Staff are friendly and help with orders.

    Man. I don't like to go under 3 stars if I can avoid it especially right now. But the things I list, I think work as constructive rather than destructive and I hope that the people reading agree. Don't use my review as an excuse not to go- please go and see if you can disagree with me because that's honestly what I would love. I would love to read about how much you love the place. Review: No. No thanks. -I don't mind the vaccine card only restrictions before it was put into law. -I don't mind sitting outside. -I don't mind having to get my own order after being told it would be brought out to us. -I don't mind using a plastic fork to eat my eggs and a clear plastic to-go container to eat my food instead of a plate. -I don't like that their isn't a bathroom. Give us food and drinks but not restroom? We have to come in to order, we have to come in to pick up our food, why can't we use bathroom? -I don't like being screamed at when the order is ready- no names are taken so what was being screamed from inside the restaurant to the outside patio in order to summon me was "EXTRA SAUSAGE" which is kind of funny now but was abrasive in the moment. Even the other guests were a shocked and made a couple jokes to take the edge off. -I don't like the very poor quality of the food. Breakfast is the easiest and probably the cheapest meal, and after ordering this, I would have preferred McDonalds. Same quality or worse but at least I could use the restroom and not have someone yell at me. Redeeming Factors: -I did really like my Pacifica Fog drink made with heavy cream and sugar free vanilla sweetener. This was actually pretty great. -It's right along the main street, easy to spot. They recommend you use the restroom on the Pier. You know, the one directly behind the other café in town, that's right on the ocean, which I am sure knows how to make tea. So, would I come back? No. No thanks.

    Bacon, egg, cheese on everything bagel
    Molly L.

    We always come to this place for breakfast when we head to the dog beach around the corner. It's a really nice little spot with outdoor seating, though it's limited with only like 4 4-person tables. However, this place is right next to some office space that has benches surrounding it and so I think that's a better place to enjoy the food especially not during covid. The breakfast food is always pretty good! We enjoy their coffees and their bagels are always really fresh. I've ordered the bacon, egg, and cheese bagels and also the avocado and spice bagels. The food can sometimes take a bit long (one time I waited about 20 minutes) but the breakfast food is great.

Kenny's Cafe is not fancy and by no means a fine dining establishment, but if you're into a clean restaurant with staff that takes care of their customers. Then perhaps this is a great place to try. I've worked in a restaurant for nearly half my life and I can honestly tell that it takes quite the effort to uphold a level of cleanliness and consistency especially given the fact that they've been there for over 30 years. I had their salt and pepper pork, well portioned, crispy batter, decently priced with all the right fixings and flavors.. I was not disappointed. I've also tried their prime rib which is a special every other Friday of the week and for $30, you get two sides and a soup. I was impressed with what they served and everything was cooked to standard. (Which is hard to find nowadays) Too clean and well kept to be a hole in the wall but with mountains on one side and the ocean in a tucked cove on the other, Pacifica is definitely worth the trip.

Kenny's Cafe served up a delicious 12-oz cut of prime rib + veggies and fries for under $30. I asked for medium rare, and I got medium rare. A bowl of soup included.

They used to have more locations, so I have fond memories of their food. They were open on Thanksgiving Day from 9 am to 2 pm. The line actually wrapped around inside the store when I came around 12:30, however I got to the right within 30 mins. So that's not bad compared to other places. You can park on the street or their lot behind the building as they have a small lot . As I mentioned earlier I got half a pound of half a chicken, ham, pastrami and corned beef. Sides where am additional $3 if you were doing the dinner specials. They also had so specials for that day , like a Turkey dinner with two sides. They gave us a tray for all our food which was super helpful when carrying it back to the car. Our favorite was the corned beef and the ham. The pastrami was good but there was some parts where it has too much fat. The chicken was ok, it was just expensive for the size. I think the next time we come back we'll just get the corned beef and ham. I hope to make this our go-to spot for our next Thanksgiving dinners in the years to come .

    A steakhouse I hadn't visited in quite a while. A few friends and I made reservations in advance,…read morewhich was the only reason we were able to get a table. The place was packed, and without a reservation, it would have been nearly impossible to dine there. The restaurant has the classic feel of a traditional American-style steakhouse. The atmosphere was pleasant, although it was so crowded that it was difficult to appreciate many of the finer details of the interior. The staff were exceptionally patient and friendly, taking the time to explain the menu and offer their recommendations. For my meal, I ordered the ribeye steak and the seafood pasta. In my opinion, the steak was a bit overpriced for what it offered. The flavor was decent, but overall it felt expensive. I ordered it rare, yet the surface of the steak was surprisingly tough. The seafood pasta was fairly good and came with a generous amount of seafood, making it feel like a good value. However, I had expected a lighter flavor profile, and it turned out to be much creamier and richer than I anticipated. Overall, I would rate the food an 8/10. The restaurant only serves its famous Prime Rib after 2:30 PM each day. I've heard it's their signature dish, but unfortunately, we arrived too early and didn't get a chance to try it. All things considered, it's a solid restaurant. If you've never been before, it's worth visiting at least once to experience the atmosphere and see what makes it so popular. 久違的一家牛排館,跟幾個朋友預先訂了位子才排上位,擁擠的人潮基本上不預訂根本吃不上。空間方面是一家很傳統的歐美牛排館,環境還不錯,但是人太多看不出太多的細節。服務人員非常的有耐心且熱誠,跟我解釋了菜色和提供他的看法。整體我點了Ribeye腰眼牛排和海鮮義大利麵,我覺得他的牛排有點溢價,口味還可以就是整體偏貴,我點生牛排,但是牛排的表面很硬;海鮮義大利麵口味還行,料多蠻實惠的,但是我刻板印象認為應該要更清淡一點,結果太奶油味了。整體我給予食物方面8/10的評價。每天下午兩點半以後才有提供Prime Rib,聽說是他們的招牌,但是今天太早去沒有點到。整體來講,是一家還可以的餐廳,如果沒有吃過的人,可以來體驗一下這家餐廳的氛圍。

It's nice at night with some of the fire places on and dim lighting. We thoroughly enjoyed their calamari which was freshly crisp, excellent bread coating, and large pieces. It makes the perfect starter choice. I liked my carbonara but I was hoping it'd taste like more of that authentic version with egg yolk, parmigiano reggiano, pecorino Romano and plain black pepper. The sliced pork was pretty good in this dish but I would've enjoyed guanciale more. This particular carbonara dish slightly tasted like Cheesecake Factory which was a slight bummer but nonetheless, it still tasted good! Also, we loved their Caesar salad; they top it with anchovies and the dressing is thoroughly mixed with the lettuce. It's delicious! For dessert, we had coffee with their ice cream sundae. My son loved the ice cream and whip cream. This is a great choice for kids but I think next time, I want to try their highly popular butter cake. This location is so far my favorite compared to the downtown San Jose location. We'll be back again for more!
