Loaded Cafe - Chilaquiles and Eggs - American Near Me - Placentia, California

We got to this place and it was already starting to get crowded about 9:30 AM. Only had to wait about 10 minutes, which was fine. We were seated in the back near where the bakery was. The place was really noisy, but I guess that's good because there's a lot of people. The place is very clean, but not the bathroom so much. No paper towels and a little dirty. We did not want to eat a lot as we're traveling and we couldn't decide on something to share. They have a nice menu but not too much as far as omelettes. So they have a menu that served all day and it was a little less expensive and we could finish the meal. My husband had the classic breakfast and we both got bacon and agreed it was on the thin side. I got the original breakfast and the eggs were cold, but the pancakes were delicious. We also got some pastries in the beginning, but neither one of us really wanted to eat them. Trying to watch our weight I guess. The coffee was pretty good. Julio was our server and he was extremely busy, but he was able to keep up with me when I asked for coffee or more napkins. read more

Great experience thanks to Josefina great service good food just don't like that there is two Separate establishment make it 1!!!

Stopped by the Placentia location for brunch -- kind of like a Mexican twist on a diner. The place has a big menu with both American and Mexican options, so there's something for everyone. We got the asada chilaquiles plate, chilaquiles torta, strawberry banana brioche French toast, and the butter cookie pancake. Portions were big, and everything came out pretty quick. They give you complimentary mini conchas when you sit down, which is a nice touch. The food overall was solid -- nothing over the top, but definitely hits when you want a casual, hearty breakfast or lunch. Service was friendly, and the space felt open and relaxed. People call it the Mexican Denny's, and honestly that fits -- no-frills, big servings, and good comfort food when you're in the mood for it. read more

Food was cold. The server ignored our table. When she did come to our table she refused to speak to my BF which was really odd only thing I can think of is because we are a mixed race couple. read more

Last time I was here was when it first opened, and it was an awful experience. Super loud portable air conditioners all over connected to the ceiling, a really confusing cash/credit pricing structure, and they were purposely charging a higher tax rate than the city requires (they were charging a 9.75% sales tax). The management got pretty nervous when I pointed out the latter issue, but already had the correct change ready to go. Plus the food was mediocre and ridiculously overpriced. I'm happy to say these issues are no longer present. The food is great, it's reasonably priced, they have proper quiet air conditioners, and simple menu prices. Different staff too, and a whole lot friendlier. I'm glad I gave this place a second chance! Oh, and the chilequiles were pretty good too. read more

Great service. The food was excellent. Our server Jose was very attentive. Would definitely be coming back!

Nice spot to have good food and catch up with friends! You do get a basket of concha's for the table to enjoy (very sweet). The food is okay, they have a diverse selection so if you're not into super sweet food they have savory options as well. Portion sizes are great! read more

Poor management. I came in at 10 am on a Monday. The menus were so sticky and disgusting and the restaurant itself looked like it hadn't been swept or cleaned in a while. The bathrooms were so gross, trash all over the floor, terrible smell and very dirty floors. The concha's were really good but the other food was just okay. I got the chicken guacamole stacker but they ran out of avocado/ guac so that was suprising since it was so early in the morning. My food came out kind of cold/ room temperature . The service was not the best, our server just seemed like she didn't want to be there. Was excited to try this place but it was a disappointing experience to say the least. read more

Watched a YouTube short on this place and had to try it. I frequently try places out I see online and sometimes it's all hype but this place was legit. Arrived around 9:30am, plenty of parking, smiling service and were seated immediately. Dining room was casual and clean. Once seated we were surprised to receive the cutest warm and tasty pan dulce conchas as like an appetizer. You can't go wrong with some sweet bread. Ordered the chilaquiles and asada plate. It was soooo good! Just tasty and the sauce had a bite to it just enough to make my nose run a little lol. Plate was served with beans n eggs. There's so many tempting things to order I couldn't decide but next time I want yo try something g sweet too like the cake shakes I will totally go again it's worth a try. read more

Came here for breakfast on Saturday around 10 am. It wasn't too busy and we were seated right away. There is plenty of seating and the decor is kind of diner style. Star of the show is the complimentary conchas! The menu was extensive. There were a lot of sweet and savory items to choose from and a lot of smaller versions of menu items as well. Items ordered and reviewed (5 stars max) chorizo torta- 4 stars, chorizo had good flavor and was not too greasy pambazo-4 stars, everything inside was delish but the bread was not good and for $20 I expect it to have the good bread. turkey lovers combo- 2 stars, soggy and not impressive, pancakes were yummy though sirloin steak breakfast-4 stars, good flavor and everything was cooked well. crepe combo-3 stars, crepes were just ok but price was good. Overall most menu items are overpriced but there are still a decent amount of items under $10 that make it worth coming back. Service was inconsistent. Our waitress was nice and attentive but when my husband tried to switch from the Turkey lover to the breakfast burrito she said she already sent the order. (It had literally only been 1 minute) I personally feel like most places would have gone to the back and make the change. read more

The service and food were on point! The pancakes were crispy on the edges but fluffy. The best pancakes were the best I've ever had.

Food was okay, regular coffee and flavored coffees we tried weren't great. Biggest problem was it was very dirty. Dead ants on the ceiling, floors had food and bits iof trash under the tables and in the aisles. Tables and booths were sticky. The little conchas were good. read more

I really wanted to love this place but..service sucks and food is average. The concept is definitely fun but falls short from lack of execution. The wait, okay..not excited but, it's a given. But, they managed to get that wrong. After being seated, I thought, we'd be off to a better experience..the mini conchita breads were warm and delicious. However, that was the end the grand experience. We ordered the appetizer trio, nachos, endless pancake, potato tacos. All food except the tacos were cold. Tacos were at best, warm. Cheese was not even melted on the nachos. Sad Drink cups were empty..sitting here waiting for the pancakes were painful. Probably had to wait about 25 minutes for the 2nd order of pancakes to come back out! Everyone was just about done eating. So..bad service, average COLD food, had to wait an hour and 15...no thanks...HARD PASS. read more

1/2 - A Mixed First Impression with Lots of Potential My partner and I first discovered Loaded Café in Placentia after finding Panecito on Instagram and catering some of their Mexican sweet bread for one of our events. When we came to pick up our order, my partner spotted this new breakfast spot next door and was eager to try it -- so we decided to come back for brunch. We arrived on a Saturday around 11 a.m., right at peak brunch time, and waited about 20-25 minutes to be seated - understandable given the hour. While waiting, I wandered over to the Panecito side of the café and witnessed excellent leadership from Alex, the location manager. A woman was picking up two full-size fruit tarts and several treats. Though she easily could've carried everything herself, Alex immediately stepped in, helped her to her car, and made sure everything was loaded safely -- all without being asked. That kind of initiative and care really stood out. Once seated, our server, Josephina, greeted us by asking if we were ready to order -- a bit abrupt since we had just sat down. We placed our drink orders and decided on food fairly quickly. I ordered the veggie stacked plate, which was fine but nothing remarkable. My partner ordered the carne asada chilaquiles, which were flavorful and definitely the highlight of our meal. The menu leans heavily toward sweeter breakfast options like stuffed French toast and crepes, alongside a solid lineup of Mexican breakfast dishes. Every table around us received a complimentary bread basket from Panecito -- except ours. After placing our order, Josephina didn't return to check on us. Instead, Alex once again stepped in and brought out our food himself. When I later tried to ask Josephina for salsa, she seemed disinterested and dismissed my questions, incorrectly stating they didn't have any options beyond enchilada sauce (even though the menu listed a creamy salsa). I also had to point out the complimentary bread basket before she reluctantly brought it over. Her attitude felt disengaged, and the lack of basic follow-up really affected the experience. By the time she finally asked if we needed anything else, we were already done eating and just requested a box. There's a lot of potential here -- the restaurant itself is clean and inviting, the food (especially the Mexican dishes) shows promise, and Alex clearly embodies excellent customer service and leadership. Unfortunately, our server's inattentiveness overshadowed much of that. We plan to give Loaded Café another try because the potential is there -- I just hope next time the service matches the effort Alex puts into creating a welcoming experience. read more

My boyfriend and I went here to try something new. We're both disappointed. The server was very nice and friendly. We ordered our drinks coffee and water . We got our coffee but no water. That's ok, thinking the water will come later in a few mins. Nope. The two other customers were being seated just a few minutes before us. A few minutes later they got their coffee and water. About 5 mins when the server came to put the condiments down at our table. I ask about our water, then we finally got our water. We ordered our food, and my boyfriend wanted a to try a type of Mexican bread at the table. We found out later that it would have to be ordered at the bakery counter and payed for there. Then why is it $2.00 more to have it dine in? Cause to go option is only $5.99 and dine in is $7.99. So why is there a dine in option? If we can't have it at our table? But we get two free concha's at our table, so why can't they bring the one we want to try at the table? Oh and there was a $0.50more per egg charge if you ordered a combo. Which's is fine due to the egg fiasco. Then we got our ordered the server notice my order was wrong and corrected it. My boyfriend's was ok, just an ass load of cheese. The red sauce was a bit on the pink, orange color ,due to the cheese. I had already ate my eggs, bacon and hashbrowns (since I ordered a combo ) then my actual meal came it was concha with strawberries and bananas and Nutella. It look and sounds amazing. But was disappointed because it's a french toast concha. Nowhere did it say French toast batter. I thought it was a regular concha with the toppings. That's all I wanted. Also why charge me for $0.50 per egg for a combo if the fucking French toast has egg in it and that's free!? If I would have know about the French toast style I would just no thank and would have pick something else. I ask the server about the non cash fee $1.78 that's for the eggs. I also pointed out the wrong combo. That was charged for - she did correct the wrong item on the receipt, and took off the $0.50. How about take off the flipping egg charge. Anyways we left, without getting the Mexican bread we wanted to try. But $50ish for something that was a disappointment. Nope not coming back here. First and last. read more

I wanted to like it but I just couldn't find anything that I liked. Went in for breakfast, it was not busy and we were seated almost immediately. The server was nice and brought us water and then brought us a basket of conchas. At first I thought "wow, freshly made and warm" but after they cooled down, you noticed that they were a bit stale and not fresh, just warmed up. I chose to go with the chilaquiles and just as I suspected, I was dissapointed. The taste was alright but I felt that the sauce used along with the chips did not mix together well so it's as if I was eating hot chips with salsa. The beef was good. All in all, the food was alright. The service was good and the person who helped us was attentive. read more

Food was not good at all, I got the quesabirria tacos, tacos were super hard and had any meat inside, consomé was like soup instead of caldo! Never again read more

Was a good experience, we were greeted upon entering and menu had lots of variety to choose from. Server was nice and patient with us as we had questions and couldn't decide. Got the regular breakfast and hubs got the breakfast burritos both were good. I also go the Horchata that was really good, but didn't really need the straw cookie as it just got soggy. Wish I could post more pics but yelp only lets 10 and their menu was more then 10 pages! Restrooms were clean and establishment was clean as well. Was our first time here and got a baked good at the beginning. It was the traditional Mexican pan Dulce not my fav because it's so dry. Kinda sad that the other table beside us upon leaving was offered a dessert for their first time treat read more

I had breakfast with my sisters at this interesting breakfast place cross the street from the library on Kraemer. No problem with parking. Was seated immediately and our server was nice and attentive. The decor was typical diner. Clean with ample seating. The diner serves a Mexican breakfast with American fusion. A few negatives is that we only get a fork... no spoon or knife and the server forgot my sister's coffee. We ordered chips and guacamole and that came at mid-meal. My sister ordered fruit with her crepes but our server forgot it. My machaca was okay and the portion was just right. I finished everything. The prices were good and food I would rate as okay, not outstanding. It needs to be better plated to step up to the next level. Overall I would rate my experience as average read more

Unfortunately this was a very big disappointment all the way around. The service was not great, half of our table received their food while the other half waited another 15 minutes to be served. The chicken fried steak breakfast was horrible and returned back to the kitchen, the chorizo and eggs was returned because it was not cooked completely and it took 15 minutes to bring back to the table. The restaurant was not full of patrons so not sure what the delay was but by the time the plate was brought back the rest of our party had finished eating. We were not impressed with any of the food that we ordered which is nothing like you see on Instagram. Very deceiving. We will not be returning or recommend this place. read more
