    Bacon double cheeseburger with home fries
    Costa B.

    After watching on News12 LI , Kevin The owner of the coffee shop was retiring after some 25+ years, I decided to stop by to meet the new owners, Maria, it's no surprise why is Little luncheonette was a hometown favorite, speaking to one of the Diner's who informed me that he has been eating there since high school, and at the food taste just as good as the first day, and the service is absolutely outstanding. Maria is very friendly, the menu is a simple breakfast lunch menu available all day, this is cash only, there is a public parking lot next-door. I was also informed that I came at the right time usually in the morning hours they are very busy again by the service, the food, the quality and the prices I can see why people love this luncheonette, Maria gave me a sample of her own secret oatmeal it might I say it was absolutely delicious. It was sweet and had just the right amount of cinnamon,, the cheeseburger was cooked perfectly, she highly recommended the western omelette, which was great, and. What I've been told she has kept the same recipe of Kevin's, famous home, fries, and they were fantastic just the right amount of spice. They were soft and had a tomato-based taste to it., The famous Kevin egg sandwich is their specialty, if you wanted to add all bacon, ham, sausage, they called the King Kone special, they do offer a whole wheat bread, which is good, I love the cinnamon French toast, and Maria gave me a special berry sauce, mixture of raspberries and blueberries,, she also said that she might be offering empanadas soon,, highly recommend I'm glad that she's keeping the tradition going with the new generation of Diner's to enjoy

    Home of the best breakfast sandwich in Oceanside. The Kevin Special is 2 eggs, cheese, potatoes and meat (bacon, sausage or ham) on a roll for just $4. Kevin uses all fresh ingredients and everything is made to order. This place has a friendly family atmosphere and he knows many of his customers by name. No frills with service on paper plates, but everything is tasty and affordable.

    Wow I moved to Oceanside about 6 months ago I've been here 4 times now for the Kevin breakfast special I showed up while my sandwich was being cooked i asked for pepper ketchup like I did on the phone he put the sandwich in front of me on the counter I'm like ok so I opened it up and put ketchup on it , noticed there is one slice of bacon on the bec i asked for more bacon , the owner told me you go to Long Beach and pay 9$ for egg sandwich then , this is 5$ i was so taken back i was speechless I paid my bill and left , I like supporting mom and pop but this place won't get my business anymore

    Old school menus for an old school diner!

    Where do I begin? The kind service or the fact that this place is run by one of the most adorable and friendly married couple I've ever met? If my boyfriend have never mentioned about this place, I would've thought that it was just another ordinary diner. My boyfriend brought me here for some brunch Saturday, he highly recommends this place. I give this place a 4.5 stars out of 5. It was a little messy when we arrived. We both ordered the bacon cheeseburger with a fried egg and side of fries. We also wanted some pancakes so we shared a stack of pancakes as a dessert to our meal. Kevin is the guy that mans the grill and boy, this man is great at what he's doing. His wife (I didn't quite get her name) takes care of the counter service and assists Kevin. The burger was tasty, fries were alright. Just your usual french fries. I heard the home fries/potatoes are a highlight along with the Kevin special. (Will come back to try) pancakes were delicious. It was nice and fluffy. My boyfriend says the secret is the grill, it retains all the bacon-y goodness onto the pancakes. Now onto service; Kevin and his wife are super friendly! They checked up on us to see if everything was alright. They have a photo frame behind the counter that plays a slideshow of the customers that visit. This was my first time here and kevin asked to take a photo of my boyfriend and I to post on his Facebook page for the business. His theme are his customers. This tells me that both Kevin and his wife loves what they do. To make sure everyone that walks through that door leaves with a happy and full stomach. Definitely coming back again!

    Such a small shop, but the most comfy atmosphere. Kevins special all day. Kevin himself makes all the meals, and has created a Facebook community, in which he takes portraits of everyone that eats at the place. His wife is the sweetest person ever. It's just those two people running the place, and they do it quite efficiently. Definitely the best egg sandwich this side of the Mississippi.

    Kevin preparing a take out order. He's a one man show!

    Kevin's is the perfect local greasy spoon, the prices are ridiculous and the food is amazing, and the owner Kevin is a hell of a nice guy!
