    Loaded French toast and pancakes
    Claudia T.

    Visited this local spot as I like to support the local businesses. It did not disappoint! The service was great and so was the food! Portions were spot on and food was delicious. The business is clean and the staff is friendly and attentive. Will definitely go back.

    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.

    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).

    Country Fried Steak Platter

    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.

    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!

    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

    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!!!!

    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 was there enjoying them with a beer and good conversation. We were taking our time eating and enjoying our drinks; the aguachiles were not the only thing on our table. While we were still eating, someone from the kitchen came out and asked if he could take our plate. We politely said no thank you because we were still working on it. A few minutes later he came back and insisted on taking the plate, saying something along the lines of, "A clean table makes a consumer buy more," but the way it was said came across as rude and made us feel rushed. If the plate had been mostly empty, with just a couple of pieces left, I would have completely understood. But that wasn't the case -- I had only eaten about 2-3 shrimp out of a dozen. I shared how I felt, explaining that I understood clearing finished plates, but we were clearly not done. His response was dismissive and he walked away. The food had potential, and the aguachiles had good flavor, but the service experience left me disappointed. Sometimes giving guests a little time to enjoy their meal, conversation, and drinks makes a bigger difference than having a perfectly cleared table.

With the shredded lettuce, cotija cheese, sour cream, and avocado. It had the perfect mix of freshness and crunch To drink, I tried cebada for the first time and I'm officially a fan It tasted like a mix between horchata and chocolate milk... such a good combo If you love tortilla soup, RUN don't walk ‍ it's a limited-time special! The tender chicken, crispy chips, and toppings like avocado, purple onion, cotija, and sour cream made it an absolute dream The barbacoa was super tender and flavorful, served with pasta salad, beans, and handmade tortillas everything tasted homemade and comforting The pork tamale was giving soft and tender on the inside with a slightly crispy, pan-fried outer layer. And they did not skimp on the filling...lots of meat and potatoes The machaca had so much flavor I loved the veggies and potatoes, paired with beans and rice. It was hearty and satisfying The ceviche was bright, fresh, and citrusy right up my alley! I would've loved a little more spice, but the homemade tostadas took it to another level Quesabirria tacos? Always a yes cheesy, tender, flavorful meat with consomé for dipping... say less paired with cheesy beans and rice = perfection For dessert, I got the corn elote soft, sweet, and delicious.

No potatoes, no bacon, nothing that made it feel like a premium burrito. The taste was ok, flavorful, the chorizo and eggs were cooked well however it was very greasy. It was just a pretty standard breakfast burrito. Unfortunately, the price completely overshadowed the experience. For me, it just isn't worth $17. I left feeling like I paid way more than what I received, so I won't be coming back.
