    Food was really good. Service great! Clean restaurant and had a very authentic feel. Definitely coming back for breakfast. Salsa is not from a can :) and has a good kick. I will be back to try dinner but breakfast hit the spot. The food portion was good, cafe de olla was delicious and the French toast is one not to miss out on. Come if you haven't. It's worth the try!

    Bacon and Egg Breakfast Burrito
    Noe S.

    Absolutely LOVE this burrito. The tortilla was nice and toasted on the outside, perfect amount of bacon, egg, and potatoes, and it just tasted great. I would love to swing by again soon just for this burrito alone. Aside from that, the interior is very clean, very relaxed environment, and the service was just top notch. Everything about this place deserves 5 stars. Whatever you're doing, never change. Thank you

    Lucy's Diner is a hidden gem in Fontana. My family and I stopped by for the first time a week ago and really enjoyed our visit. The service was five stars on its own. We were warmly greeted upon arriving. The woman who checked us in and showed us to our table made us feel as if we were regulars she sees daily, even though it was our first time there. We came in on a weekend at lunch and they were packed. It's apparent Lucy's Diner is popular and rightfully so. Lucy's Diner is located on San Bernardino Avenue in Fontana. They have a small, free parking lot for customers. Their menu boasts several dishes, so there's lots of selection and definitely something to please a majority of palettes. Our order consisted of the Clubhouse Sandwich and Country Fried Steak. Everything tasted fantastic and was cooked fresh to order. Portions were the perfect size, definitely more on the generous side. Pricing was fair. Lucy's Diner made a strong first impression. We're looking forward to returning again in the near future to try more items off of their menu. Honestly, everything that was ordered from tables around us looked delicious.

    Wonderful local Diner that serve delicious food, wonderful service when dining inside. Prices is fair with volume of food being served. Been coming here since I moved here in 2019.

    Closeup of the Fresh Vegetarian Omelette
    Malina C.

    All-Fruit Waffle 5/5 Vegetarian Omelette 3/5 The all-fruit waffle was so delicious! A Belgian-style waffle cut into fourths and topped with strawberries, bananas, cooked apples, and crushed candied pecans. The flavor of the waffle was not too sweet and had notes of vanilla and cinnamon in the batter. The chantilly cream was almost like a frosting, very sweet. I didn't feel that it added anything to the dish, except extra sweetness so I didn't use it. The fruit with the syrup was enough for me. The Vegetarian omelette included broccoli, mushroom, onion, and tomato (I requested no tomato). The egg was really dry and overcooked. I prefer my omelette cooked well but not to the point where the egg has dark brown spots. The Hashbrowns were ordered crispy and I thought they were tasty and well seasoned. I really enjoyed the waffle and would definitely return again for it and some of the other items. I won't let one omelette discourage me from coming back. (This was ordered through UE, so I don't have an opinion of the service or ambiance).

    A side of rice and beans for the beef fajitas

    Service was good food was disappointing would not come back would not recommend the fajitas are like $24

    Strawberry Waffle Combo
    Andrew V.

    Great place to eat! Only waited a minute to be seated. They have a big menu, so there's a lot to choose from. The food was delicious and the service was great. Definitely going to recommend to everyone that I know. We had the country fried steak; that came with eggs and hash browns, I also upgraded to a stack of pancakes for $2.99, what a deal! We also ordered the strawberry waffle plate You also gotta try the pomegranate agua!

    Lucy's FrenchToast Special with Cafe de Olla

    Lucy's Diner did not disappoint! The biscuits and gravy were rich, creamy, and full of flavor, paired with crispy hash browns and perfectly cooked eggs. Lucys French toast Special was topped with fresh strawberries, bananas and caramelized pecans was the perfect balance of sweetness. Add in great coffee and a cozy atmosphere, and this spot easily became one of my favorite breakfast places. Definitely coming back hungry."

    I placed an phone order for a shrimp and frish burrito first let's start off by saying I asked if they can wrap my burrito i didn't want it in a box the server tells me no that the burrito was to big and it could not be wrapped. I was confused on how the burrito could be wrapped when I gave a funny look on my face then all of a sudden the burrito got wrapped. Second I ask for a fish and shrimp burrito all I tasted was rice and beans barley any fish and I didn't taste not one shrimp at all I basically paid for a rice and bean burrito for 17.00 I will never come back here.

    This is the man that greets you at the front hahahah

    Y'all! I've been living in Fontana since 2006, but moved away in 2020, BUT NOW IM BACK AND HOW THE HELL DID IT TAKE ME THIS LONG TO GET HERE!?!!! First off: we came today, day after the 4th and it's not crowded at all, love the atmosphere, right when you walk in, you're greeted by a cool statue of a some kind of a man that's from the country side? ( don't come at me I really don't know what is called lol) it's got an 80s feel with cool decor and mixed with Mexico feel, just come and see it yourself mmmkaayyy We were greeted by Mislie( I hope I spelled your name right), she was soooooo sweet, big smiles! Uhm!! Hello plus 100 already! Nowadays is so hard to actually find waiters that actually care about their job and that was such a nice feel (I also come with two baggage's, a 3 year old and a 1 year old lol), Also my husband and I came HUNGRRYYYY lol, immediately as we ordered our drinks I straight up ordered my country fried steak ( what I get always, can't change my mind I'm sorry), but was really tempted to try to menudo, that will be next week lol. To our surprise, lunch and dinner menu were also available! Of course my Wetto (mah white boy lol) ordered his favorite enchiladas. I decided to sacrifice my eggs and my pancakes for my kids and ordered a side of bacon ( and they give you FOUR!!!) I SWEAR TO YOU THE FOOD CAME OUT IMMEDIATELY LIKE NOT EVEN A FIVE MIN WAIT!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!!!!!! HOLY HEAVEN WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE?!!!!! Now onto the food, my fried steak came LOADED with gravy and the steak was CRISPY AND HOT!!!! Oh the pancakes were soooo soft and you know there are those soft pancakes but get stuck when you try to cut it? These ones cut straight down no issue!!! Super soft and fluffy! And my steak of Of course fantastic! Exactly how i like it! Oh my husband and I scarfed our food down! Oh did I mention that Mislie has been fantastic this entire time?!!! Like girl!!! I'm totally gonna be a regular here!!! Also everyone else has also came by to see if we needed anything, This is definitely a place where you feel a sense of community and to be honest, we need that more than ever right now so yes! See you on Tuesday for $1.99 tacos!!!!

    Chilaquiles with Carne Asada cucumber juice
    Sherly V.

    I love this small mom-and-pop diner. The food was delicious, and I enjoyed the Carne Asada Chilaquiles wish it had a bit more meat mixed with the tortilla chips. Overall, everything was amazing. Our waitress was very sweet and professional; she greeted us from the moment we walked in until we left. I really like this little spot. It makes me feel like I've gone back to the wild, wild West. It's nice and clean, and the bathrooms were clean. Most definitely come back again. friendly

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.

That alone made a big difference. They also included their famous fresh rolls, which are always a nice bonus and never disappoint. I tried the Texas Chili as a side for the first time, and it completely exceeded my expectations. It was loaded with meat, rich, flavorful, and hearty. I honestly wish I had ordered it sooner--it'll definitely be my go-to side from now on. It's great to see these improvements.
