Best brunch spot in Corona hands down. No frills, homemade food that doesn't break the bank. Cute decor transporting you to the beach. Their gravy and thin sliced potatoes are so well seasoned and tasty. read more

Good food, horrible service my daughter recommended this place to me, thought I'd try. Took forever for a server to acknowledge us. We sat next to what I believe were regular customers, and they got service before we did, even though they arrive 15 to 20 minutes later. Anyway, I will definitely never ever go to that restaurant again. I guess they are right their sign outside the door says. Come for our food not our service. Horrible I'm giving it a good rating because the food was good. read more

If you're hungry for a hearty breakfast, this place will satisfy that craving. I decided to check out this place after having it bookmarked for awhile. Yes, the interior isn't anything fancy. There aren't any comfy booths. It's not a place for ambiance. But it's comfortable enough where you just focus on enjoying the food that's in front of you. After perusing their extensive menu (that looked like a newspaper), I settled on a Denver omelette with fruit instead of hashbrowns and one pancake instead of toast. I immediately knew that the omelette would be good after one look. It was generous in portion, fluffy in texture, and covered with thinly shredded cheese. Cooked to perfection. The pancake was a curveball. I didn't expect the cinnamon taste. It looked thick and fluffy as well. The outside was slightly crispy but the inside was still gooey in some parts. It had a doughy flour taste that I wasn't used to. Maybe I'll try something else next time. Oh and the coffee was just okay. More on the acidic and bitter side, even with the hazelnut creamer. Service was excellent. The waitress checked on us frequently and filled our coffee cups. I'd still call this a neighborhood gem. It's quirky, imperfect, but full of character! read more

Stopped by on way to Escondido and was pleasantly surprised. Large free parking lot. Friendly attentive servers. Indoor and limited outdoor seating which met our needs since we were traveling with our dog. Good variety of breakfast and lunch menu items. Breakfast served all day. Prices comparable and portions are generous. Gets crowded but worth it. Clean spacious restrooms with changing tables. Fun eclectic decor. read more

Great food at a great price. A local place where everyone knows someone.Staff are fantastic!! I'm just sad they don't have Diet Coke, just Coke Zero . I can't stomach Coke Zero. read more

Of all the ways to ingest potatoes I think sliced potatoes is one of my favorites right along with hash browns and tots. Whether it's the mojo potatoes from Shakey's, to the Saratoga chips in the Cinicinnati area, to the potatoes au gratin at Ruth's Chris'--there's something about soft sliced potatoes that makes it amazing to eat. Cowboy Surfer Grill turns this amazing culinary advancement into the perfect breakfast base by plopping a country-fried steak on top and covering it in gravy for their BP Risin' breakfast plate. Then, to be extra wicked, they put fried eggs on top, add more gravy, and then add cheese to the mix to make the even better Lone Ranger breakfast plate. It's all very delicious and appetizing and dangerous. The service is especially great with some of the most friendly servers I've had in the last five years. They're the type to take you under their wing if you're new to the food joint but also treat you like you've been friends for years if you start coming regularly. The place is small, but cozy. The decor has a decidedly beach feel to mixed with an outdoor rustic ruggedness. I like it. It's very inviting in its aesthetic. I'm definitely coming back here because that Lone Ranger is super addictive. read more

My friend took me to Cowboy Surfer grill for my birthday breakfast. I had never been. I am pleased to have been show this delicious spot. I got the breakfast BLT with avocado. Having an egg on a BLT was so good. Why have I never thought of that before?!? I also got curly fries because I was told their ranch was delicious! And I'm happy I listened. I want to go back for chicken tendies so I can scoop up the ranch! The service was good, even though it was packed. We sat outside. They were quick to bring drinks and utensils. We did have to go in to see if we can order, but that was the only negative. The ladies were so friendly. I will definitely be back! read more

Food was great! However service was terrible. Our waitress was annoyed at me and my girlfriend when asking her questions about the menu and when we asked if we can bag our salad that we initially ordered for the table. Also it took us over 15/20 minutes to get our check, even after asking 3 times to the same person. Id reccomend take out but not dining in due to poor service read more

A nice hidden spot in Corona. Have seen it a few times when in that shopping center and always wanted to try. Went today and really enjoyed. Menu was very creative and has some dishes I'm going to come back for (looking at you, Philly breakfast). Everything was homemade and tasted solid. Only "negative" would be it's a little crowded due to the space, but that gives it more of a diner feel. read more

We had such a great experience, and a huge part of that was our waitress, Carole. We've been a few times and she is our favorite gal! She was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down. She checked on us at just the right times, kept our drinks full, and made excellent menu recommendations. Even though the restaurant was busy, she never made us feel rushed and always had a smile on her face. Outstanding customer service like hers is hard to find, and she truly made our meal even better. We'll definitely be back, and we hope to have her as our server again. Highly recommend! read more

First time coming to this Cowboy Surfer Grill located in Corona. Definitely a fun and casual spot that has a large menu. Menu offers a mix of burgers, sandwiches, seafood, and surf-inspired dishes, all served in generous portions. I ordered their Surf & Turf Burger and BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich. Both were good but quite salty and oily/fatty. The interior of this restaurant features a laid-back, surf-themed with rustic décor and plenty of indoor seating. Service is friendly and attentive, with staff often going the extra mile to ensure a positive experience. Few less stars for salty food and unstocked restrooms. read more

Best breakfast in Corona and they are reasonably priced. Call ahead on the weekends to put your name in or you'll be waiting a while. There's a reason there's a wait. Mmmm read more

The Cowboy Surfer Grill is known for its legendary "Surf Bomb." If you're ordering a custom burger there, you might want to say out loud and proud! ​"I'm heading to the Cowboy Surfer Grill for a Surf Bomb--keep it rare, raw, and runny with that extra egg and cheese." Chris "7seasPeg" read more

"That's the menu?" is what I said when I realized what the newspapers laying on the table were. It's an example of the fun quirkiness of this restaurant. When you first walk in, you're looking at funny and interesting quotes and art covering the walls. Branding is huge here with their cowboy surfer mascot all over the mugs, table tops, and chairs. It all feels reminiscently Disney-esque. I was pleased to find a vegetarian/vegan section in their newspaper/menu where you could order both breakfast and lunch. The portions are generous and we ended up taking home leftovers, which even eaten hours later was still tasty. And as busy as they were, all the waitresses had stopped by our table to check in on us. It's no wonder this place is so popular. We lucked out and only had to wait a few minutes before being seated, not realizing it's recommended to call ahead. Still, we came at around 10:30am on a Saturday as walk ins and it still worked out fine. read more

Went to cowboy surfer with my family of 10 and called an hour before showing up to reserve a table and they were so nice to accommodate us. Besides the food being super good the service was amazing. My family each got a different dish and everyone was happy with what they got. The waitress was also super friendly with our kiddos. Loved the inside of the restaurant super cute. With I would've taken pictures. 10/10 read more

Super awesome little breakfast spot! The servers were so friendly and went out of their way to try and make our brunch better. Nicest servers you'll ever meet. The food is so good! I've never had such a unique and delicious breakfast burrito. Everything was so good and at a really good price, way cheaper than I would expect for the quality. read more

Amazing food, and pretty big portions and for cheap. The BEST costumer service EVER. My boyfriend and I split a plate and they separated the food onto two different plates without us even asking. Definitely visit this place if you're looking for a good breakfast spot. read more

I would recommend this place to anyone looking for good service, great atmosphere, and delicious food!

Tasty American breakfast and outstanding customer service! We stopped by Cowboy Surfer while in Corona and absolutely loved it. The food was great, but what really stood out was the staff--super friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful. We were dining with our one-year-old, who gets fussy quickly, which can make eating out a challenge. The staff went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable, showing so much patience and kindness toward our child. They even let him borrow toys to keep him entertained! Such an amazing experience overall. We will definitely be back. read more

Cannot ask for a better neighborhood breakfast spot! Food is delicious and large enough to split. Carol is THE BEST server we've had - always remembers us and has the kitchen split the meal into two when we tell her we're sharing. They don't take reservations but you can call ahead and put your name on the list. the place has a fun surfer vibe with lots of fun wall art to look at. read more

Great customer service and very attentive staff. They have a big selection of breakfast, lunch, and dinner items. The prices vary, however they serve big portions.

Stopped here on the way home from the three day weekend. Super short wait for a party of two for lunch, we were able to squeeze in no problem. Very fun, down to earth, personable crew, several people checked on us throughout lunch for our drinks or on how our meal was going. I had the christi's CPB, and mom had the Lucy, both hearty and delicious, very happy to have multiple real vegetarian/vegan options. This is a great place for multiple people wanting different options, but it seems super popular with the locals, so be prepared for a wait. It's worth it. Will add to our road trip bookmarks. read more

First time here today and wish we had come sooner! Heard about them from announcements that they have been sponsoring the local recreational soccer teams and we try to support those who support the community! Everything tasted great (Lone Star, Surf Bomb, Ham and Cheese omelette, and kids oatmeal) and service was friendly and helpful! Carol was awesome and we will definitely come back! read more

Love the vibe & opportunity to chat with people at the tables next to us. Clever to have the menu in a newspaper format. Wish I could've kept one at the table so I could continue to read what was on it. Nice & friendly staff. Food could've been better. I ordered corned beef hash with poached eggs, but the corned beef was from a can & had some mixed (frozen) veggies added to it. I was underwhelmed as I'm used to actual corned beef that's baked or slow cooked & sliced. My husband ordered a basic breakfast burrito. He said it was filling. read more

What a great place for breakfast. It gets busy so be ready to wait unless you call ahead. They do not take reservations but you can call ahead before leaving home to put name in. Staff are all very friendly and busy like bees. We traveled from out of Town and meet some friends here for breakfast after refered by our daughter. Even though they are busy the service is good. Our drink order was taken immediately and served promptly. Our server let us settle in before coming back for food order. Several staff came by mutiple times to refill drinks. I was amazed how fast the kitchen got our order out. Our meals included: breakfast burrito, pancakes, french toast, breakfast philly, scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage patty and the famous sourdough pancake. Everyone enjoyed their overly abundant plates. Many togo containers left with us. This place is worth dining. Will stop by again when in area. read more
