    French Toast Breakfast
    Eric F.

    This is one of those gems that you just happen to run across and wonder how you didn't know about it. I came here with friends for breakfast one morning after they happened to find it during a search for a new breakfast spot. We were promptly and warmly welcomed in and seated immediately. The breakfast menu had a lot of options with a good variety of food from traditional American food to Mexican food to Guatemalan food. I stuck with the traditional French toast breakfast this time, but I will definitely be back and trying more. All of our food was cooked perfectly and was delicious. The staff was very attentive. The prices were decent. Overall, I was very impressed with this cafe. This will probably be my new go to breakfast place.

    We stopped over here to eat breakfast before going to the San Diego Zoo. Lots of free parking since it's in a lot. The service was very friendly. I really liked the decor inside the restaurant. They have a big menu. I got the Guatemalan breakfast chiroy combination. Huge portion size. It comes with churrasco, longaniza, chorizo, beans, eggs, and fried plantains. Everything was very good. No complaints. The prices were very fair. I would recommend not ordering the traditional American breakfast items. You can get that anywhere. Try something new.

    First of all the food is amazing!! I had the Mix Skillet, and Ms. Badpenny had the Michaca breakfast, the black beans are really good and the salsa is amazing. Tons of parking. Super friendly staff and good size portions!!

    My Mom suggested we try this place as we heard it was really good. They have a wide range of food that includes American and Mexican. Upon walking in the door, I noticed the restaurant was clean and orderly. We were seated at a comfortable booth and greeted by the owner, and he showed us to our table. The nice waitress came over and took our order. I was really overwhelmed because there were so many dishes on the menu to choose from. I decided to get a Pollo Asado or they call it Chicken burrito with sliced avocado on the side. My Mom ordered Pozole. The chips came with our meals with a hot sauce that was so flavorful and also an Avicado salsa I think it is. So delicious I need the recipe! Our food was served shortly after. The meals were ample in size and that first bite was perfection! The food is homemade with love, flavor, and care. I told the owner how much we loved the food. He stopped by our table to talk to us a little bit. He was so friendly and warm hearted. This place feels like a place that people go to for "COMFORT FOOD" with a clean, orderly, and pleasant environment. I love how they also praise God with some photos on the wall. They also had other beautiful photos up. And, if you love to watch anything good on the big screen, they have it there for you also! This is a place I highly recommend for a great, pleasant, friendly, and awesome-tasting food experience! Go experience "Chiroys" today!

    Chiroy offers Mexican American and Guatemalan (Chapín) cuisine. I come in for breakfast to sit and enjoy the calm yet vibrant vibe. The menudo is to die for. I typically don't finish it in 1 sitting so I order it in a to go bowl. The grilled food is the best if you ask me. I haven't found another restaurant that offers Guatemalan food but the food reminds me of the time I spent traveling Guatemala.

    Everything about our breakfast here was wonderful! The Guatemalan combination breakfast and huevos rancheros were both excellent, and the café de olla was the perfect cozy touch. The staff were attentive and super kind. There was a very tiny mishap with one dish (something that can happen anywhere), but the team handled it promptly and professionally. We left very happy and will definitely be back! So glad there's a legit breakfast spot close to home finally!

    I had a nice breakfast here at Chiroy's Cafe new location in Spring Valley or Casa de Oro in Campo Road. I had the trio of breakfast tacos plate. You get to choose your protein for your tacos and sides for $12.99 plus tax, and $3.49 plus tax for regular coffee. I had hash browns and black beans on the side. The breakfast tacos came generously filled with scrambled eggs, bacon, cheese, and hash browns. I wish I would of known that the tacos came with hash browns in them, because I would not of had them as my side. At any rate, the tacos were tasty. The eggs were well scrambled and the bacon was really good. The hash browns were good but they could of been crispier. They need that nice crunch, the ones in the tacos and on the plate. Also, I thought the breakfast tacos would of been better served if they chopped the bacon up and mixed it with the eggs, and garnish the tacos with either some chopped green onions or a touch of pico de gallo. Just a touch. The black beans were of the refried variety. I thought they were whole when I ordered them, but nevertheless, they were tasty and creamy. Service was very pleasant. You order at the table, but then pay at the counter. There's plenty of inside seating. There's also a bar, where they serve eats, beer, and wine.

    Everything is perfect this time the hashbrowns are perfect. The hot cakes are hot. The coffee is still good as is the breakfast meats and the customer service is a step above.

    Another great breakfast at Chiroy's! If you've not been in a while, you need to come and check out the renovations! They removed the interior wall to open up the space and the bar area is so open and airy now. And Chiroy's now serves beer and wine. Today, we sat on the front patio to enjoy the view of Mt Helix. We ordered huevos rancheros with flour tortillas and a veggie omelette with fresh fruit and homemade English muffin and decaf coffee. I wish they offered a decaf version of their cafe olla--I did try their caffeinated cafe olla but I can't handle caffeine any more Martin Chiroy is the owner and he kept my coffee and water filled and served our food promptly. Chiroy's opened in November 2024. He has invested in our community--let's each of us invest in this small business and help it thrive!

    Yummmyyy. The salsa was so good!

    New breakfast spot in Spring Valley. I love how we were greeted right when we walked in and the service was very friendly. The breakfast was simple, fresh & homey & that's what I enjoyed about it the most. My husband liked the fresh salsa that came out with his dish. Everything was really great. We will def be back.

    Food was absolutely amazing and very well priced! If we weren't just visiting from Arizona this would definitely be a regular breakfast place.

    We had a great experience at Jamba Juice in Grossmont Center! Xavier was very professional,…read morefriendly, and helpful. He took the time to clearly explain the drinks we had questions about, which made it easier for us to decide what to order. Our drinks were prepared and handed to us within five minutes from the time we ordered. The service was smooth from beginning to end, and we truly appreciate Xavier's excellent customer service. We wanted to make sure his hard work was acknowledged because he is definitely an asset to this location!

    This will probably be one of my quickest reviews because ordering a smoothie has never been easier…read more There is an ordering kiosk near the register so employees can focus on making drinks. I ordered a medium Strawberry Surf Rider with mango added. My husband got the small Apples and Greens smoothie. There is also a free boost you can add to each smoothie, so we both chose multivitamins. It was packed in there, which made sense. It was a hot Sunday and what better way to cool down and start your morning than with a smoothie. There was some construction going on in the plaza, but it did not affect the inside vibe. Seating is limited though. We waited about 10 minutes before my name was called. An employee let us know they were out of multivitamins. The only boosts left were protein, soy protein, and energy. We decided to go with energy. I do wish I got the multivitamins because working in a school setting means you want all the extra nutrients you can get. I was a little nervous the energy boost would keep me up and ruin my Sunday reset nap, but I still knocked out later, so it was not an overwhelming amount of caffeine. The Apples and Greens smoothie was really good and refreshing. It was balanced and did not lean too sweet from the apples or too grassy/earthy from the greens. My Strawberry Surf Rider fell a little short on flavor. This is usually my go to order and it normally tastes like a frozen strawberry lemonade. This time it was more ice and water forward with less tartness and sweetness. I am not sure if adding mango changed the balance, but it was still refreshing overall. I am glad this is my neighborhood Jamba juice as the employees were killing it!

The space itself is also a plus--it's bright, airy, spacious, and has plenty of seating. Unfortunately, the overall experience was overshadowed by cleanliness and service issues. Many tables were left covered in crumbs and empty cups, yet employees made no effort to bus or wipe them down. We watched one employee throw away a leftover drink from a table, push the trash can back against the wall, and then return behind the counter to attend to a customer's drink order and then use her phone without washing her hands first. That was concerning from a sanitation standpoint. We ordered the Lavender Bliss Iced Latte with oat milk, which costs an additional $1.00. The drink arrived with barely any milk, so I had to return to ask for a splash more. If customers are paying extra for a milk alternative, the drink should be prepared properly the first time. We also had the Honeycomb Latte, and the latte art was severely lacking. While latte art isn't the most important part of a drink, it's often a reflection of the care and craftsmanship that goes into its preparation. A little more attention to presentation would elevate the overall experience The restroom was also in poor condition. There were visible stains on the toilet seat, toilet paper scattered across the floor, a full trash can, and an unpleasant odor. Regular restroom checks would go a long way toward improving the customer experience. What made the experience especially frustrating was seeing employees on their phones during slower periods instead of taking the opportunity to clean tables, tidy the café, or check the restroom. Those small tasks make a big difference in creating a welcoming environment. When service and basic care are lacking, it also makes it hard to feel comfortable leaving a tip. We did tip, but afterward regretted it. The drink menu and atmosphere have a lot of potential, but the lack of cleanliness and attention to detail made it difficult to enjoy our visit. I hope management addresses these issues, as this café could be a much better experience with stronger housekeeping and customer service.
