    Bottom is the Mustang Omelette. Above is Hubbie's bacon and eggs with hashies! Yum!
    Laura N.

    This is my Hubbie and my go to Saturday morning breakfast place. I have the same thing every time. The Mustang Omelette. It's my favorite. It has spinach, avocado, green onions and feta cheese. I add a couple of dashes of Tapitio and it's the bomb. Rounded off with crispy hash browns and sourdough toast. We get quick, friendly service every time. I like the old fashioned diner atmosphere and old songs on the overhead speakers. The rest of the menu is great! Hubbie's favorite lunch sandwich is the club. The patty melt and the burgers are delicious! Quick quality service. I encourage you to give it a try

    Super cute 50's themed diner right by long beach city college. Service was friendly and quick. We came in on a Saturday afternoon (1pm) and we were able to be seated right away. They play 50's music and are open until 9pm. Their burgers and milkshakes were so good! We shared the basket of frings and it was just the perfect amount. Onion rings were delicious. My boyfriend even said it touched his soul haha, we will definitely be back!

    Dale's Diner is the definition of a classic Long Beach spot. I've been coming here for years, and it never disappoints. This time I rolled in with my homie after a flight--it's super convenient since it's not too far from the airport--and it hit the spot perfectly. I ordered the patty melt on rye, and wow... it was exactly what a patty melt should be. Crispy golden bread, perfectly melted cheese, and that juicy patty cooked just right. Comfort food at its best. My buddy got the same thing, and we were both just grinning like kids at how good it was. Our server, Brooke, really made the experience even better. She was kind, attentive, and made us feel welcome without being overbearing. You can tell she actually cares about her customers. Dale's isn't trying to be flashy--it's just a timeless diner where the food is tasty, the staff is friendly, and you always leave full and happy. It's the kind of place you keep coming back to, and that's exactly what I've been doing for years. Highly recommend the patty melt if you want the real deal!

    It's been awhile since I've been to a diner for some good ol breakfast. Service was good. They kept the diner coffee coming. Food hit the spot. I ordered the chicken fried steak which turned out more like country fried steak. Not what I was hoping for, but most places serve it as a patty. Nonetheless, food was comforting. I like their homemade rye bread. Parking was easy. The atmosphere takes you back to 1950.

    This is the turkey burger and the sweet potato fries.

    I came here a couple of times, and I like how this diner plays old-school classic music (from the 1950s and 1960s), which are the type of music I love, and of course, the people are really cool, especially the girls (like Winter, Vivian, Delilah, etc.), but what's absolutely really sad and disappointing is that my parents and I learned and found out that their food is frozen. I was absolutely very disappointed to learn and find out that their food is frozen. I wish for this restaurant to replace their frozen food with fresh food instead. That's what every diners like this should know as they should know better. Another thing I don't like about this restaurant is how the parking for our vehicles are and that most of the food contains bread as well.

    9/5/24 Can't decide? Go to Dale's!!!! So freaking good we did & it totally hit the spot Hubby said he wasn't famished so it's my choice. I wanted somewhere that's close by, not loud (or screaming & running rug rats everywhere (hahaha), with unassumingly good food & not too trendy .... This place has all the check boxes. It's our go to classic diner (next to The Village Grill in Claremont). No muss, no fuss. When we got here, it's practically empty with just couple of patrons dining. 50's music coming through the speakers-didn't mind it at all. I was just telling Hubby that I want to experience sitting at the counter to order a good cup of coffee & a slice of warm apple or cherry pie. Today is not the day to sit at the counter (lol). I ordered a burger (medium rare, & Hubby ordered a pastrami sandwich & for me a regular burger on a bun, grilled onions, pickles, lettuce tomato. My combo is accompanied by fries. So happy they still serve Coca Cola products-like I said, classic! Not long after my salad arrived, nothing special but the balsamic vinaigrette was amazing fresh & tangy-just the way I like it, even the croutons were tasty. Right on time, our order was up. Oh my Gosh!! The fries, the fries-- both Hubby & I immensely enjoyed the crispy outer layer, piping hot. These were the perfect fries! He ate all of his before he started on his pastrami. I almost finished mine but had to spot coz I only got to eat barely half of my burger. The beef patty was juicy, tender & bursting with flavor. All the veggies were fresh & the onions were grilled as requested. It was just so tasty & delicious! Hubby really loved his pastrami & he appreciated the soft bread it was served in. I tasted it & It was on point! A tad salty for my taste but I am glad he enjoyed it. He loves pastrami & he says it's better than The Hat (prior to this, he said so far The Hat is top fog on the pastrami front). Those fries, we would probably come back just for the fries hahaha. Our server, Karrie was very friendly, attentive & checked on us many times to ensure our dining experience was enjoyable. Great choice!

    I was a first timer at dales Decided to finally give this place a try. they have a great amount of private parking up close (they do share it with other businesses) As soon as I walked in it was extremely busy but a waitress came up and told us a booth just opened and she would clean it right away for us. She wasn't kidding. she was extremely fast but she was really thorough with cleaning the booth and the table. Breakfast is served until 2 pm I believe on the weekend, so we had to get some of their loaded country potatoes/ hash browns, and then ordered lunch items. (Bacon cheeseburger and a French dip) The only two things I didn't like were the potato salad, I did have to send that back. They were really nice about it and took it off my bill. And since we ordered two sandwiches with fries and onion rings I don't think they should have charged us for a side of ranch. I think one side of dipping sauce should come with your meal. (Only two downsides) The banana split was out of this world. They had all the classic diner food and dessert. After we ordered the banana split one of the waitresses came to double check if anyone has peanut allergies. So it's always great when staff takes this serious. Everyone in here was extremely friendly, they have very large portions and they also offered a military discount. I would 1000 percent be back

    Super friendly service, quick meal, great price for a steak and came with several sides, fries, Cole slaw and a soup or salad. Love the 50s diner vibe here from the decor to the booths. Feels like a time warp to a simpler and friendlier time just walking in the door.

    Fried chicken dinner with mashed potatoes, steamed veggies, and cornbread. Everything was delicious!
    Dorina G.

    Wow, first time here and now I wish I lived closer! Came here for dinner after seeing a matinee play at The Aurora Theater. Great menu where they even serve breakfast all day. I ordered the fried chicken dinner, which was huge and tasty! Everything tasted homemade, right down to the cornbread and steamed vegetables. Our waitress was very attentive and super nice. The pic is of my leftovers after I was completely stuffed!

    Lunch for two on 10/4/25

    My former boss, who lives in the area, recommended this wonderful little diner because he takes his daughters here for breakfast after church on Sundays. It's a sweet little 50's style diner (though, for some reason, they only played 60s music) with a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. We ordered two sandwiches with potato salad and two shakes. The food was excellent and extremely tasty. The service was courteous and helpful. But, be warned, the food is extremely pricey. We think we will go back but, sadly, it will have to be an occasional treat rather than a weekly habit. I guess the pricing reflects the area, which caters to the upper-middle class who can afford to pay $70 for a very basic lunch for two people.

    Never tried until last month! And I've been back three more times. Very friendly staff. Great service. Origina 70's diner vibes. Great decorations. Food is so tasty and nice big servings. Definitely plan to share some plates.

    Patty melt; onion rings; vanilla malt. Sorry, I ate part of it before taking the photo!

    I came back, for lunch this time. patty melt, onion rings & vanilla malt. Delicious!!!

    Rainy night in So Cal and decided to try Dale's; never been before and it been here since 1988! Service was awesome and the food was really good. Burger was big, messy and good. Klaire, our server was awesome and attentive. 50's-60's tunes playing a moderate soind level was perfect. We will be back again.

    Cute diner in a house with great service, cool vibe and amazing food…read more It is street parking only, we cane a Friday at 10:30 and had a slight wait and a small walk but all manageable. We started with the house Bloody Mary which had a crab claw and a kick. The micro greens were cute but not sure they had an impact on the flavor. Big hit and we loved them. Makes me want to try some other options from their cocktail menu. The must-try hyped-up French toast was worth the glory bestowed to it! We got the caramelized apples with brandy butter. Waiter said the berry or peaches are his 2 favorites but we had already narrowed down to apples or the banana Nutella. Of those 2 he said apples so we got it! Short story they are all made with fresh baguette stuffed with mascarpone cheese topped with your choice of fruit and sweet options and fresh whipped cream. I tend to lean more savory breakfast and my hubby likes the sweet so this isn't normally my jam.... But the cheese is a perfect complement to all the sweet and is something I would get again for sure, which says a lot. We got the cheeseburger scramble which was hearty and fillings. Ground beef, cheese, mushrooms and scrambled eggs, simple, easy and yummy. I personally like my eggs salty and needed to add some but my husband thought it was perfect. It was served with yummy whole small roasted potatoes that were crispy but still soft inside, perfectly seasoned IMO. Also a small slice of fresh baguette with butter (and jam on table) was a tasty plus. In fact that bread makes me want to go back for lunch to get a sandwich. All in all it is a new top spot on our list and can't wait to go back and try another cocktail, a new French toast flavor and maybe the crab cake and eggs that I saw walk by. Great find.

    I passed by the diner hundreds of times as I live in the neighborhood. Today I decided to try it…read more It has that nice diner feel atmosphere. But that's pretty much all that impressed me. The service wasn't great because the servers or at least who looked to be the manager was very stressed out and projected that onto the customers. Which you never do. Service with a smile. Don't make the customer feel like they're an inconvenience to you. I ordered scrambled eggs it was about two eggs that were scrambled with some mushrooms and spinach. Came with a very small piece of French bread there was processed packaged butter on the side. we asked if they could just make a simple French toast and they said no, only the specialty types that they have on the menu. I didn't understand that? I mean if you are making a specialty type of French toast don't you have to begin with just regular French toast? I asked him if I could get a side of toast for my eggs and they said that they don't have toast only that French bread. What kind of diner doesn't have toast or the capabilities of making toast? It reminded me of a movie scene with Jack Nicholson. Honestly to spend $17 for two eggs a few potatoes a small piece of bread it's just not worth it.

Our order: -Onion rings (the right batter to sliced onion ratio & delicious seasoning); -the french fries- crispy and the right amount of salt seasoning *dipped into their Jalapeno ranch, and you will be left smiling!* -the Works: What a burger! I love Portabello mushrooms, caramelized onions, and Persian cucumbers, so when I read that on the menu, I knew I had to order this, and I am not disappointed! This hit the spot. The smash patty topped with my favorites made for a perfect burger filling party. -the Don Chendo burger- the salsa Don Chendo on a jalapeño-Cheddar bun - culinary innovation at its finest! For non-spicy eaters like myself, you can eat this. This is definitely tolerable spice with a delicious flavor that overrules any "heat". The buttery, softness of the bun with the cheddar and jalapenos melted into it compliment the flavors of the patty, red onions and Chendo sauce. Having a burger is a rare craving for us, and thankfully our taste buds led us here this time that we did, because we were left, not only satisfied, but can safely say that this is one of the fewest Exceptional burgers we have tried thus far. Burgers are huge too! You def get more bang for your buck here. Staff was very welcoming, friendly and attentive toward us.

Refried beans; crispy tots; vegan cheese; avocado; mushrooms -- hearty; filling; and layered properly. But what really makes this burrito stand out are the house-made sauces. The salsa has the perfect heat; and their vegan dipping sauce elevates the entire experience. You can taste the intention. Now let's talk about the burger. The vegan burger is not an afterthought here. It's juicy; well-seasoned; and balanced. The texture is on point; the toppings are fresh; and it holds its structure without falling apart. You can tell they care about execution. Between the house-made sauces; the fusion flavor profile; and the consistency across both items; Sideburns earns its spot. If you're in Long Beach and want vegan comfort food done right; this is absolutely worth pulling up to.

    It's been a while since we last visited The Coffee Cup Cafe, and the flavor and service are still…read moreexcellent! They now accept credit card, so no need to run to the ATM to enjoy their delicious breakfast offerings. We had their Huevos Rancheros (again) and Sal's Enchilada Eggs, and they were both delicious. The Sal's Enchilada Eggs with chorizo was a great recommendation from staff. They definitely do not skimp out on putting more than enough sauce on their food, which I appreciate. you can never have too much! The staff is so friendly, checks up on water/coffee refills frequently, and keeps the restaurant clean and tidy.

    Always consistent and good! Nice people work here, it's…read morepacked on the weekends. It can be a little loud at times, but it's worth it. FOOD*** I usually get the Potato Scramble with Bacon, but today I got the ABC omelette. It was delicious! Check out the picture, the avocado was perfect! I shared this with my wife and it was the perfect size breakfast to fill you up but not weight you down. SERVICE*** Everyone that works here is polite and friendly. I've actually been dining here since 2007-2008. Never had a bad experience. Can't believe I never reviewed it before. The 2 Latino guys that work here are the ultimate Long Beach vibe. They genuinely make my day better every time I see them. PARKING*** Street parking only, but there's plenty of spots. Thanks again Coffee Cup Cafe, see you next weekend!

    I've been coming here for years but it's been so long since my last visit! Since the patio is dog…read morefriendly, my pup and I had to stop by for a late breakfast. Parking: Free in the small lot in the back. If the lot is full, you can usually find nearby street parking. Service: Excellent! Our server, Jairo, was prompt and very friendly. Dogs: Allowed on the patio. No restrictions on them having to be under the table or otherwise hidden. We had the corner table at the front which my girl loved because she solicited pets from people through the little fence and had plenty of room to stretch out. Food: I ordered the Grand Prix omelet with super spuds and biscuit and gravy. Everything was hot and most of it was delicious. My only complaint was that I felt like the gravy has changed since my last visit. I used to love it but this time it was thinner, not as flavorful, and had an almost see-through quality to it. Not sure how to describe it, but I wouldn't order it again. The biscuit was good, though. My girl got scrambled eggs and bacon and they cut up the bacon, much appreciated! Everything I've had here over the years is good, including their pancakes, fruity pebble french toast, and curly fries! We will be back for another patio visit soon. :)

    Food here is absolutely delicious , the fresh fruit the freshly squeezed juices are just the best…read more The unlimited amount of items you can find to eat and not be left hungry I love coming here on a Saturday morning with the family and enjoy the beach theme and music.
