    Breakfast burrito!
    Alyssa B.

    If CONSISTENCY had a name it'd be.... Nick's Deli! We've been eating their breakfast burritos since forever, almost 10 years from their original location. Their breakfast burrito with a side of salsa is everything you need for a bfast burrito!!!! Filled with potato, cheese, egg, chorizo, bacon, & splash of salsa with a thick side of it. The best part- it hits the spot without feeling too heavy but you'll definitely be full. SECRET MENU!!! If you have little ones, ask for a Jr. breakfast burrito. They omit any heat. Even better is their service. Those guys welcome us with open arms every time. Trying to call ahead for pick up and can't get through?! SAME! Hang up and try again a few mins later!! We never have to call more than 3x. Food is usually ready within 15-20 mins. Want to feel even more special???? Tip them! They get super excited and shout it out. It's my second favorite part of the experience. Their burritos are maybe $10+ so a tip is always appreciated.

    Breakfast Burrito and salsa

    Consistency consistency consistency. I love this place and usually come to get a breakfast burrito at least once per drill. (Next to Army national guard base in Los Alamitos). I have tried the add sausage, or the extra bacon, but the truth is, the best one is the OG. They put bacon and chorizo and it's fantastic every single time. Would definitely recommend. Sometimes they are hard to reach by phone because of how busy they are but I was in and out in about 5 minutes after ordering. Also very reasonably priced, just over a 10 spot for a very filling burrito Oh and the salsa! Please do not forget the salsa!! (Consistency!!)

    Devouring this breakfast burrito!!! Deliciousness but after Notre!

    Oh man! Oh man!!! I would honestly say that this is the BEST breakfast burrito that I've ever had!!!! My first time here at Nick's deli EVER and they did not disappoint all the hype that I've read about them. It was the perfect size burrito, the salsa was amazingly perfect! Had the right kick to it! I will definitely be a regular there. The staff was super friendly and the service was excellent! Seating might be tough as the day goes but since I got there a bit before 8 am, there was no crowd at all! I loved the atmosphere. Very clean but yet it had that old "deli" type look to it. Fountain drinks were right next to the rack of different varieties of chips to go with their meñu. This place is awesome! I will definitely be back and become a regular!!! Kudos to Nick's deli!! You're like a hidden gem in my neighborhood!

    I absolutely LOVE this place, especially for their breakfast burritos. They're well-priced, well-made, and just damn delicious. You can tell the staff have their ways of working that just works for them and it's efficient. They take your order and you don't pay until you get your food. Their breakfast burritos just have the right proportions of the ingredients. I love it. Can't rave about it more. Also, the place gives you the feel of a little history. You can tell there are locals and regulars who stand by this place through and through.

    Hardy Vegetable Burrito @yassiG

    A real nonsense type of joint. Lots of seating in the back and some cute little outdoor seating in the pack patio area. First time here, haven't tried deli number 1 yet but happened to find deli II while I was in the area looking for breakfast. Luckily the guy ringing me up showed me the other side of the menu that offered a hardy vegetarian breakfast burrito. It was just what I was looking for !!! Delicious and packed w veggies like broccoli bell peppers onions also had egg whites and potatoes and cheese. I added the guacamole for an extra dollar and they did not skimp. Came w salsa. It was fire and hit the spot.

    *** Slight discount (4%) with cash payments *** Nick's Deli II is a popular deli shop located in Los Alamitos and is best known for breakfast burritos. I have been to the flagship location in Seal Beach, but recently I decided to come here since I was near this Los Alamitos location. Most of the staff has been working for the shop for over at least a decade so there's a strong base of loyal customers here. [Parking]: There's a free parking lot in the strip mall and I had no issue finding an available spot. [Ordering & atmosphere]: I was greeted by one of the staff and he took my order. Once the food is ready, then customers pay at the cashier counter. This is one of the most popular breakfast burrito spots in Los Alamitos / Cypress area as the deli shop was pretty crowded at 8:45 AM on weekdays & phone was constantly ringing. Kitchen staff was very lively and shouted in unison whenever someone had left a tip. My order was ready in approximately 15 minutes. [Menu]: The menu was pretty overwhelming to navigate, but the top two Yelp highlighted items are Breakfast Burrito and Machaca (or Machacha as listed on the menu). *** Breakfast Burrito (Eggs, chorizo, Bacon, Potatoes & Cheese - $9.95): Solid portion for the price - a-tier breakfast burrito with fresh ingredients, but this burrito missed the "it" factor. Special sauce had right amount of heat. *** This is one of those places customers constantly come back due to good value. Breakfast burrito was solid so I would recommend this deli shop to anyone who's in this part of the town.

    Machaca
    Pearlina K.

    My husband was craving a breakfast burrito and I found this place on Yelp near the gym for him to stop by on the way home. I got the machaca burrito and he got the Americano burrito to share with our son. Review from my 6 year old .. he said 10/10 because he has good potatoes and crispy bacon. The machaca was flavorful. They gave red salsa on the side which was good, not spicy. Place is good with reasonable prices. Will be back to try out their sandwiches.

    Chorizo Breakfast Burrito
    Ivan Lawrence A.

    Food Was one of those mornings that I was craving a breakfast burrito and I have always been hearing about Nick's Deli II having pretty good breakfast burritos. I love breakfast burritos and a really good one can really make my day. I went in, got a chorizo breakfast, and it came with salsa as well. It wasn't love at first bite since it seemed to be mostly tortilla at the beginning, but as I kept eating and got closer to the center of the burrito then I was amazed. The burrito was so good, it was really filled and everything was seasoned perfectly and I love the size of the burrito as well that it was a good size for the price. It wasn't overly big as well. The salsa that it came with was pretty good as well and just the perfect amount of spicy to complement a breakfast burrito Service/Ambiance It's a small hole in the wall type of place, few seating but a kinda expansive menu. From the time I ordered to the time I received the burrito, service was relatively quick. Would definitely recommend this place if you are on the hunt for a good breakfast burrito. Would definitely come back

    This is a good local spot for breakfast/lunch. They have burritos, sandwiches, plates, salads, and more. We came on a Sunday for lunch and it was busy, but the food came out quick. There's seating indoors and outdoors, it's a lot bigger than I expected. I didn't see the Daily Double Special until I was walking out, but I would so order that next time! ig: @cravingswithcat

    If it's good enough for Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Trevor McGill who grew up in our little area of these United States, it's good enough for me. This place is the embodiment of family. Ran and operated by probably the same people. Blue collar workers come in and out, fist bumps are given, its insane the whole feel of it all. There is clearly a culture, a family, and a town here; and they serve kick-ass food. I ordered the breakfast burrito. The Breakfast burrito was simple, not gonna sugarcoat it. But sometimes simple is great. It was warm, delicious. I saw they had pickled eggs too!? Insane and first time trying it, super full of flavor. Parking on Apple Maps was weird too, took me to the back of the restaurant instead of the front. Would come again. And I know why people come here; good food, good people.

    Yelp did us a solid today! Absolutely delicious. The owner greeted us warmly and walked us through the Meats and sandwiches. I ordered a turkey, ham bacon fully dressed on sourdough and a pastrami. Superb in taste and preparation and sooo fresh. Hats off. A wonderful deli experience.

    I had visited Nick's in Seal Beach based on 'best burrito' list. Well, it's smaller cousin, Nick's Deli II delivers the same quality breakfast burrito-- hefty, filled with quality chorizo, eggs and cheese. It's not over the top big like some breakfast burritos. It's just plain good, with some salsa that gives it an extra zing. I went early (7:15 am) and it was delivered quick. The people who work there are very friendly, too.

    Great breakfast burrito with exceptional service

The bakery cases were filled with beautiful cakes and pastries. We grabbed a slice of cake, a strawberry tart and chocolate chip cookie. We were only supposed to grab sweets but decided to dine here for dinner. It was pretty busy for a Friday night but we were seated within 5 minutes of checking in at the front. We were seated in the dining room with the florals and banana leaves wall paper. The room was dim and seemed to have a romantic ambiance to the lighting; however there was one light that kept flickering and others diners complained about it. For our meals, we decided on the wings and onion rings for appetizers. My fiancé got the fried chicken meal and I got the chicken Parmesan with pasta. Our food came out fairly quickly, the portions were huge, and delicious. We definitely could have shared a plate. The chicken plate is 1/2 a chicken and it came with huge potato wedges. The chicken Parmesan was a generous portion, it came with linguine and marina sauce, and garlic bread. All in all we were satisfied with our meal. We ended up eating our cookie and cake for dessert. Definitely will be coming back to try other items on the menu.

I also like their frozen meatballs in their freezer, which adds some really nice savory flavors to my spaghetti and meatballs. They have really high end cuts of meat like wagyu and Japanese A5 meats here; however, that's not really what I come looking for. Their pantry is nicely stocked with quality ingredients. It's hard to not pass up their delicious pork rinds (from 4505 or Southern Recipe) or Mutti marinaras. And if I don't feel like cooking, I can come for lunch in order to walk away with a sandwich that they can make for me. Overall, this is a small shop, that's thoughtfully stocked with some really high-quality ingredients for me to make a nice dinner at home!

    Okay, So I am updating my original review !!!!!!! My husband & visited here in July 2026 - I posted…read moremy review The restaurant reached out to me to ask about my review - amazing in my opinion. We tried it again tonight, blown away from the minute we walked in the door. Friendly prompt service. Sat in a cool booth in the bar ( you know the kind old school green leather wood paneling ) huge area yet cozy, college football on tv. My husband's dirty martini with blue cheese o lives & my cosmopolitan were fantastic. Ordered the Fat Bastard oysters - again great. I laughed at my husband when he ordered the filet for dinner until I tried it - one of his favorite steaks yet! Cooked "perfectly ". I had the halibut fish tacos , which I highly recommend. Tatiana our waitress was great very friendly & funny. For dessert we tried something different for us their hot fudge chocolate cake ..... ......... you must order. Service food drinks ambiance parking family friendly date night happy hour good time Go to the original fish company!

    I came here salivating with such a craving after browsing Yelp for a great place to eat, which I…read moreusually do when I'm searching for something new to try. I came here for seafood, specifically their Oyster Rockefeller, because I haven't had it in decades. It's one of my all-time favorite dishes, along with foie gras, bone marrow, head cheese, suckling pig, and more. I was happily surprised to discover it's located across the street from my favorite studio, Mr. Inkwell's Classic Tattoo & Piercing. I guess I didn't pay close attention when I mapped out directions--a real downside of relying on GPS these days. I remember when I used to memorize streets, locations, and directions every time I visited a new place or traveled. Anyway, I digress. The place is fancy and spacious, with a market out front, divided into three or four sections: the bar stools right in front of the bar, the bar seating area, the main dining space, and an enclosed patio. The employees all looked experienced and mature, like they had been there for more than a decade. The three hostesses at the front were younger. After looking at the menu, I decided to start with their peach puff pastry topped with vanilla bean ice cream. When a dessert catches my eye, I often prefer to indulge in it first because I might be full afterward. It didn't disappoint. I took my time, savoring every bite. The freshly cut peaches had a nice bite, while the puff pastry was crunchy and flaky, with its very tasty cream. The vanilla bean ice cream was simply delightful. After finishing, I didn't want to spoil the high from such an amazing dessert, so I decided to take the oysters home. It's half a dozen. Presentation-wise, they're a bit underwhelming compared to previous ones I've had. And just so you know, I used to work part-time as a server at an upscale American restaurant at the top of a fancy old hotel in Long Beach, at a well-known authentic Italian pizza place in San Diego, at a small Korean bar in Torrance, at a family-owned Filipino restaurant, and at a Japanese fast-food chain, among others. Even with a full-time 8-5 corporate job, I still worked part-time as a server, dining host, and karaoke hostess. My three favorite pastimes are enjoying delicious food, meeting new people, and discovering new adventures. To continue, my biggest disappointment was that two of the six Oyster Rockefellers didn't contain any oysters at all! It's baffling how that could happen. Usually, Oyster Rockefeller looks bulky with build-up depth from the spinach, cheese, butter, and seasonings on top of the oysters themselves. But these looked dull and bland with a plain flat top. They also weren't that hot. It wasn't really appetizing. Two of them only had the adductor muscle (that round, fleshy part attached to the shell), which I actually love, by the way. So you see, I couldn't be mistaken, as I slurped the oysters only to taste the spinach, cheese, butter, and the little bitty meat muscle I had to scrape a little off the shell with a fork. There were definitely no chewy, soft, and tasty oysters. I hope it was just a simple mishap, especially for an upscale restaurant known for its seafood dishes. Hopefully, a member of management sees and reads this review and takes corrective action to ensure this never happens again. Please note that the usual price for great-tasting Oysters Rockefeller at a well-established restaurant is $30. This place charges $25, which makes me think twice. But then again, some of its dishes are priced a few dollars lower than most, except for the dessert, which costs a few dollars more at $15. However, I still enjoyed it so much that it doesn't matter to me. In life, there are always pros and cons when it comes to overall preferences. It is always up to you to try things yourself and not rely on someone else's opinion, which might prevent you from discovering new things. That said, I am willing to come back to try other dishes that look equally scrumptious and reasonably priced: Toodle-loo, my darling readers. Until next time.
