Kevin K.

This place has a NY Katz Deli vibe , on Friday morning was quiete busy and I got Carne Asada with Mushroom Spinach and Italian Sausage , easy on the potato . Let me tell you that burrito was bussin the soft texture of the Carne Asada and perfectly melted cheese gotta say was a1 . You get a stub and when you finish pay at the way out , this place will definitely be in my rotation

Bacon chorizo, egg cheese, bring it

You have to ask yourself, why does a neighborhood burrito place have more than a thousand positive reviews? After one visit, I think I get it. You can feel the love. The place has that comfortable, homegrown feel the moment you walk in. Handmade signs, local businesses advertised on the walls, and a steady stream of regulars giving the staff high fives, fist bumps, and asking how their parents are doing. This is clearly not just a place people eat. It is part of the community. I ordered the chorizo breakfast burrito, and it was very good. Soft tortilla, gooey cheese, flavorful chorizo, a little crispy bacon, and a reasonable price. Nothing overly fancy or trying too hard. Just a warm, satisfying burrito made the way a neighborhood favorite should make it. There were also quite a few military members from the nearby base, which adds another layer to the local pride and gives the whole place a little patriotic energy. I chase burritos. I have visited plenty of the famous places that show up all over Instagram and Yelp, so I would like to think I have earned at least a minor degree in breakfast burrito studies. Was this the absolute best burrito I have ever eaten? Probably not. But the feeling you get eating here, supporting a true local business, and briefly becoming part of something bigger than breakfast is right up there at the top. Definitely worth waiting in line. Come hungry, be patient, and maybe practice your fist bump before entering.

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!
John D.

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
Yassi G.

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.

Storefront (Dec 2025)

*** 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

Pickled egg
Elijah T.

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.

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.

They have high-quality cuts of meats and a small, but nicely curated shop with delicious snacks and pantry staples. I like to come here for their picanha, priced at $19.99 a lb. Usually $20 allows me to walk out the door with two modestly sized steaks that become spectacular when they're finished on my stainless-steel pan at home. 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!

The sandwiches are consistently fresh, filling, and really well made. Their Beef Dip is wonderful, it has tender roast beef, melted cheese, and the au jus makes it an easy recommendation. But my personal favorite is the Turkey Club. The turkey, bacon, Swiss, and fresh bread are already a great combination, but you absolutely have to get their orange sweet and sour sauce with it. That sauce takes the sandwich to another level. Honestly, the sauce alone is delicious and is one of the things that keeps me coming back.
