    Hot link breakfast sandwich.

    First time at the new location. It was so good. All the staff were exceptionally nice. Hot link breakfast sandwich with Chipotle Aoli. I added habanero salsa to the breakfast potatoes. Fire! Literally. ;)

    Biscuits and gravy, gravy on the side so I could butter on my biscuits first #IYKYK

    Great location, it used to be a Thai restaurant but I'm glad it's the new location for Johnny O's! Food was fresh cooked, made to order and delicious! The place is small and tight, but don't let that stop you from going. The wait was only 15 mins when it's busy and Denise got us in quick at a cute two top table. Every one works together to make sure you have a great experience!

    First time over been to the new location. I'm mixed on thoughts because I had expectations of the old place. The location is VERY small and bland. The older location had a lot of cafe type charm to it and while it as small also, it just appeared much bigger than this location. I think they need to take over the empty location next door and make it more seating and add some oomf to it. Stylish decor, lighting, etc. make it more Inviting. They've been at the Rancho location long enough now. You can keep it simple and charming, but not so blah. Service was good. Food is still decent. Prices have really gone up- A LOT since it went last but again it's been a while. They seem a little More expensive than some other cafes, but that's just me. We sat by a window and with it being 60 degrees out it was still comfortably hot a they had cheap black shades but they don't help much. In the summer they're gonna have to invest in good AC and awnings or quality shades to block out some heat or people are gonna complain. Over all, it's not the worst by any means. It's still decent... but it definitely needs to change a few things to really stand out and sustain themselves in this location. 4stars for the service for sure. Missing 2 because the food was basic and for the price it was subpar, and the ambiance was lacking. I think that's not everything, but it does help when you have a visually inviting scene.

    I highly recommend Johnnys, the servers were super friendly and nice. Cute little cafe. And the food was delicious, perfect after our morning hike. 10/10 no problems

    Food was GREAT! Service is OUTSTANDING! Alex was very welcoming and attentive made my family and I feel at home. We took my Mother here for a B-Day brunch and we all enjoyed are time and food. Places like this is what makes the family owned business strive! Nice area lots of parking inside nice and they play good music. Highly recommended coming!

    If you're looking for a traditional and good diner experience, this is the place to be at! I love me some diner foods and Johnny O's fulfills the need :) I love that their menu is comprised of traditional diner foods so it's not so complicated to choose from. Our server was super nice and the food of course was super homey and delicious! Definitely will be back!

    Double meat burger, excellent! Zucchini fries..yum

    So glad to find out that Johnny O's Cafe is now in RC. For years it was down the street from us in Upland. Came to celebrate my son's birthday and the food did not disappoint. Great good, great prices, and fantastic service. We'll be back!

    First time at Johnny O's Cafe , we came with the whole family and Not one of us was disappointed. Customer service was seriously amazing, very welcoming and genuine from the moment we walked in. The food was flavorful and truly hit the spot. You can tell a lot of care goes into everything they do. I've seen some mixed reviews here, but our experience was nothing but good vibes and great food. We truly hope this place thrives and continues to grow. Praying that Jesus blesses this restaurant, the owners, and every employee, and that it becomes one of the most loved spots around. In Jesus' name

    French Toast and plain potatoes.  Seems previously frozen.

    New location visit. Nice location, but will have issues if they do not update their menu to meet the locals tastes. Average at best. Nothing seems freshly made. Seems like they are reheating frozen food service items. Everything was overly salted. Paid $60 for this. Asked if they had turkey sausage, and the server was short with us and said they would never have turkey sausage. My wife ordered hotcakes with the country potatoes that he described as having onions and peppers. There were not onions or peppers in the obiviously previously frozen square potatoes. Also, a different person brought out French Toast instead of the hot cakes. When we finally flagged down the server, he offered to exchange the plate for hot cakes, but we decided not to since we did not want to waste food. I had the cheese burger, and the server made it seem like they were smash burgers, they were not. Just two small previously frozen burger patties. Tater tots were also from a frozen bag.

    It's a very small breakfast/lunch spot specializing in a small but flavorful menu. The wait was 40 minutes! If you're coming on the weekend during breakfast or lunch hours be prepared to wait. The food was good and satisfying. Was it worth the wait? No, there was nothing special or unique to set this place apart from any other breakfast or lunch spot.

    The made from scratch corn beef hash, eggs and country potatoes with habanero salsa.

She took so long to take our drink order after we sat down, that we were ready to order our food when she came around. After she took our drink and food order, we waited 15 mins, and still no drinks. I actually had to ask another waitress for water. When our waitress came by we reminded her about not getting our drinks yet and she copped an attitude and was like "we were busy, yeah I asked someone else to bring the water". Ok. No need to be rude. Thankfully the food was good, so at least that was enjoyable. Our waitress never came by once to check up on us, as we watched other waitresses be more attentive at other tables. Honestly I've had better service at McDonald's. That's embarrassing for a restaurant like The Cut where food prices are not cheap. I'm sure it was just this one individual that was performing poorly, but it left us with a bad experience where we simply don't want to come back, and take our business elsewhere.

This was my first visit, and it's conveniently located right off the 15 Freeway. We had Jenifer as our waitress (she joked that her name tag is missing an "N" ), and she was fantastic. Since it was our first time, she took the time to explain the menu, answered our questions, and even recommended we try one of the soups. Her friendly and attentive service made the experience even better. We ordered a breakfast plate, and everything was delicious. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the bacon was flavorful, and the pancakes were light, fluffy, and so good. I also had the strawberry lemonade, which is made with real strawberries, making it incredibly fresh and refreshing. For dessert, we shared the peach cobbler, and it was the perfect sweet ending to our meal. The restaurant has plenty of seating, including counter/bar seating, and there's lots of parking available. Overall, we had a great first experience and will definitely be back. If you're looking for a classic diner with great food, generous portions, and excellent service, Richie's Diner is worth a visit!

    My friend and I had the pleasure of dining at Richie's Real American Diner on June 17th, and we…read morewanted to recognize three outstanding employees who made our visit especially enjoyable. Paco (Francisco) sets the tone the moment you walk through the door. His outgoing personality, welcoming attitude, and genuine enthusiasm make every guest feel valued and appreciated. He truly makes his presence known in the best possible way and creates an inviting atmosphere from the start. Madison provided exceptional service throughout our visit. Her warmth, professionalism, attentiveness, and attention to customer needs were outstanding. She consistently checked on us, ensured everything was perfect, and made us feel like valued guests rather than just customers. Emma was equally friendly, professional, and personable, contributing to the positive dining experience with her great attitude and excellent customer service. It's employees like Paco, Madison, and Emma who turn a good meal into a memorable experience. Their dedication, professionalism, and genuine care for customers are a true asset to Richie's Real American Diner. Thank you all for making our visit such a pleasant one!
