    Western Egg Dish (bell pepper & onion in the eggs) and house potatoes.
    Jamie R.

    This place is popping!!! Visited on Sunday during the SoCal rain. Even the rain didn't keep people away so that should speak for itself. We were seated about 15 min after arrival, which was not bad for the crowd size waiting around to be seated. It's a large place with indoor and outdoor seating (when it's not raining). With a classic decor and vibrant colors, I wasn't sure what to expect. The service was Excellent and the food was good. They have a variety of options to choose from (breakfast classics, sandwiches, etc). Our coffee's were topped off often which kept it hot! I had the American breakfast with house potatoes which included bell peppers & onion, bacon, scrambled eggs and sourdough toast. Overall, flavor was good, potatoes were cooked just right. I wish I would've asked for a little crispy as I like mine crunchy. Overall, everything was tasty! Everyone in my party were pleased with their meal and the service. Meal size is decent. We will be back to try other items.

    Again! Awesome experience. Our server today remembered us from last time (almost a month ago), her name is Madeleine! What an amazing service. The food was delicious, again. Full of flavor, great seasoning, excellent biscuits, and loved the crunchy bacon. I really enjoy the coffee here, why? I don't know, it just taste really good hahaha. Atmosphere here is nice, average noise level, and you get a family feeling here. You'll see lots of regular come through as you enjoy your meal. Highly recommended!

    Loved this place! It's so cool you feel like you are transported back in time; The interior is charming and updated yet has a very classic vibe. Very cool! I could see myself renting this place out for an awesome party (I don't know if they do that, but it would be cool!) The service was great, the energy was awesome - bustling and busy, - and the food was fine!

    We decided to try Dick's church for the first time. It was well worth it our waitress was super friendly. The vibes for this restaurant are super cool. They have an outdoor patio area with a kids playground. The food was very yummy. We will definitely be coming back.

    A really delicious breakfast option in Costa Mesa. I would not really call it a diner because it is a bit more upscale than that. It does have a very 1960s, early 70s vibe to it which I loved. Inside is very large and there are many different rooms with different seating options. They also have indoor and outdoor seating. There's a large free parking lot attached so we were able to find a space a few feet from the door. Our server was extremely polite and everything that we ordered came out faster than expected. They have a very large menu with all sorts of classic dishes on it, but there's enough variety that you will be able to try different items during each visit. I started off with a cup of the Chili and thought it was surprisingly good. It had a very hearty flavor to it, lots of meat, and it was seasoned really well. I also loved that they covered it in onions and overall I really enjoyed it. For my breakfast I chose the Country Fried Steak because I've only heard great things about it. I can confirm it is delicious and I would recommend. It was perfectly crispy, but not overly done, and was fair in size. Overall, a really solid breakfast or lunch option if you are in the Orange County area.

    French toast

    Hadn't been in for about a year and decided to stop by on Sunday afternoon. The server was friendly and there wasn't a wait time at all (in the past there always was) I was a bit shocked to see us get a table right away. And noticed lots of available tables indoor and outdoor. After placing our orders and receiving the food, it made sense. Unfortunately our party of 4 all ordered a different item from the menu- and all of us were dissatisfied with our meals. I did take pictures, and I'm glad that I did for context. The chicken country fried steak was cold and all breading with no actual chicken. The fact it was cold made it that much worse. The order of French toast was also cold and burnt at the same time! Thin bread and just overall very disappointing. The tuna melt was very greasy and also came out cold. The sweet potato fries - cold and soggy. What is going on?! Why are plates being served cold when it should be hot food. We also ordered a cheeseburger and the fries were dry overcooked and brown and crispy. They looked like fries that had been sitting there all morning. Cold as well...... Overall, today's experience here will be our last. It was a waste of money honestly. I would have much rather spent 70 dollars elsewhere. Norms would have been better. So disappointed.

    THE FOOD WAS SO BOMB!! we had the main burger, french toast, and breakfast carne asada burrito.. all 10/10. Not to mention the kindness the staff showed my family and I. We will be visiting again and you won't regret checking this place out either :)

    Retro feel. Cool booths and counter. Classic diner food. We were welcomed promptly and escorted to a table. The wait staff was quick to come to the table and served us well. All five of us enjoyed our breakfast. We will return.

    Had a fantastic breakfast here on a weekend trip! My breakfast burrito was great, glad that I followed the waitress's tip to add grilled onions. One of us had the Eastside Scramble which was decent, but I was eyeballing the vegetarian Benedict! If I can make it back here, that's going to be my pick. Really impressed with how many vegetarian options there were! The spicy Bloody Mary was spot on! Also got a hot coffee since we were sitting outside on a chilly morning with the dog. The outdoor patio area was lovely and a bunch of other tables had well behaved dogs. We were there on a Sunday morning around 9 and it looked like there was a pretty full house inside, but you'd never know from the service-- prompt, courteous, friendly, checked in on us several times. Definitely going to be a repeat next time I'm in the area!

    Cool diner near where I work, apparently it's been here forever and just recently had a renovation, no wonder it looks so new and updated inside. Love the service. I ordered steak and eggs, steak was surprisingly good! Will for sure be back again

We came relatively early on a Saturday, totally forgetting it was St. Patrick's Day weekend and this place would be poppin (which it definitely was as the day carried on). We were seated right away for breakfast. On weekends, they don't start serving lunch till 11:45am, but we got to enjoy their breakfast. I didn't even realize they serve food. We were seated in the upstairs area which was pretty awesome because you got more of a view of the ocean! It was awesome. The guy that seated us was one of the brothers that works there and he was so nice! He told us to let him know when we were ready to leave because it gets crazy and people try to steal tables hahah. He even tried to get us to stay later and offered to buy us all a shot if we did, which of course, my family never says no to, so they all got to enjoy that haha. He was fantastic! Our server was also amazing though I didn't get her name. The staff here really is outstanding! To eat, I ordered the chocolate chip pancakes and a side of their fruit bowl. It was all really good. The food came out pretty quick which was great. My family all enjoyed their HUGE beers and mimosas. But really, the drinks look like they could be a bowl of soup haha. We loved it here and I'd definitely come back. Once the afternoon hit, they turned the music up for the St. Patrick's Day crowd. It was definitely a fun atmosphere!

Their food isn't too bad especially if you want to watch sports, enjoy greasy food with a friend, or need a quick bite after a beach day. I think kids are allowed until a certain time (but I'm not sure when) cos once the sun sets, they have a bouncer checking IDs. Lots of seating available. Service is ok. When you get inside, you can pick any table of your choosing and your server will find you. Also, the restrooms are clean! First time I came here, I tried the lemon pepper pterodactyl wings and sweet potato fries. The wings were kinda bland and needed ranch for flavor. The sweet potato fries were pretty greasy but went great with a beer. I've also tried their California Dreamin' burger with garlic fries. This burger was so yummy and filling!! The bun is like a grilled cheese and the toppings go so well together. The garlic fries were meh.

What I Love: * Unique Flavors: The food tastes great and they have some really unique touches. I love that they serve raspberry jam with their toast--it's a nice change from the standard grape or strawberry. * Homemade Quality: It's really cool that they do their own house-made potatoes and even their own homemade ketchup. You can tell they put effort into the details. The Drawbacks: * Pricing & Fees: I'd give this 4.5 stars if I could, but I'm sticking with 4 because it's definitely on the pricey side. What really bugs me is seeing a mandatory tip/service charge for certain group sizes on the receipt. Between the expensive menu and the fact that they are constantly busy with plenty of business, it feels like price gouging. * Parking: The parking lot is very small, so be prepared for a bit of a struggle to find a spot, especially since they are always packed. Final Thoughts: The food and unique house-made items keep me coming back, but be prepared for a high bill and a tight parking situation.

On top of that, the kitchen absolutely overloaded it with garlic to the point where it completely overpowered the flavor of the meat. The potatoes on the side were also disappointing -- burnt, hard, and packed with way too much rosemary. All that disappointment for $55 dish! The atmosphere was busy and energetic for Mother's Day, which we expected, but the food itself felt rushed and inconsistent. For the prices they charge, I honestly expected much better execution and quality control. Overall, not the experience we hoped for, especially for a special occasion brunch.

The meats were seasoned very well and extremely juicy. The chicken was tender and flavorful, and the beef kabob was soft enough to almost melt in your mouth. The Bayshore pizza was more of a pan-style pizza with a unique cheese blend instead of traditional mozzarella. Make sure to ask for the pizza dip too, it has a tangy flavor that pairs really well with it. The warm baklava filled with pistachios was a great dessert to finish the meal. Service was friendly throughout the visit, and I appreciated that the restaurant cooks without seed oils because the meal did not feel overly heavy afterward. The interior is upscale and cozy with fresh flowers on each table, and the atmosphere feels great for both casual dinners and events.

And it came from a breakfast joint, which is super rare in and of itself. Having lived in Southern California for many many years, I thought I had seen and experienced just about everything in the way of good places to eat. As I was driving around looking for some breakfast, I stumbled across oeb breakfast. And I am so glad I did. For starters, when you walk through the door, the place is bright and Cherry and has just the right amount of whimsy. It's neatly laid out and everything is in full view. It only took a moment my server to come get me at the front and direct me to a table. Let's talk about the service. Having been in the food service industry, I know what it takes to have a great dining experience. Caesar, who was my waiter, took care of me in a level that I have not seen in a very long time. Personable, gracious, accommodating, and helpful are just a few of the words I would use to describe my experience being served by him. I asked for coffee and water and within moments it arrived on my table. Side note, the coffee is off the chain! It is a brand called Umbria and it is amazing. After scanning the menu, I opted for the beef bulldogi Benedict with the beef Tallow fries. I asked for the fries extra crispy, and ask for my milk to be served with breakfast. If you've read any of my Yelp reviews on breakfast places, you know that that is one of my litmus tests for the accuracy of the order. If I have to ask for my milk after the meal's been delivered, they're not doing their job. Not that I'm picky, for me. It is just a way to determine how good of a listener the server actually is. It didn't take long at all for the food to be delivered. The presentation was absolutely amazing, as we eat with our eyes. First, I have to say that the way the food was plated was definitely a work of art. Once the food was dropped off half of me was going. I wonder if they will remember... And before I could finish my thought Caesar showed back up with the milk. Home run! The food itself was absolutely wonderful, I cannot remember when I have enjoyed a breakfast as much as this one. All the flavors were there, it was perfectly balanced, and was just a pleasant dining experience overall. Bragging on Caesar again, as I was sitting there, the restaurant started to get very busy, he handled himself with such Grace and poise and didn't let the mounting tension frazzle him. Again, I wish this place was in my hometown so I could come here more often, but you can bet that I will be back here multiple times. Bottom line? There aren't many places that I would tell friends they definitely absolutely had to go to. But oeb breakfast is now on the top of the list for me to recommend to my friends.
