Nikki's shines where it counts: the food! Everything we tried was absolutely delicious. This is a more stripped down experience. You order at the counter and they bring your food to your patio table. The place is clean. The staff are all very friendly. And the food is excellent! Very hefty burritos. Generous portions on their plates. Great location near Costco too. We will be back. read more

Nikki's Cafe - Steak Cheese Quesadilla - Donuts Near Me - Capistrano Beach, California

This place was excellent for a greasy spoon when the old Vietnamese man owned it... you could get a decent bacon and eggs and they give you a doughnut with a small coffee five bucks... Nikki's would charge you $20 for the same thing. They buy the lowest level quality products from their supplier .You know , those places that hand you catchup you've never heard of before that's all watered down and crap ...same with everything else there. Worn the others read more

What a great find!!! This little place doesn't look like much but serves the best breakfast burritos I've had in years. They have amazingly delicious donuts and a full menu. The best part is the service. The lady at the counter could not have been more kind and helpful. My mom asked for iced tea. We were told that the drinks were in the refrigerator behind us. She didn't think there was tea. Then she said I can make you some! She made my mom delicious iced tea and the when we went back in after eating to get donuts to take home she refilled my mom's glass. There is a small patio and she will bring your food out on real plates! We tried the large cinnamon roll, glazed, twist with chocolate, custard filled, and maple bar. Each one was soft, sweet and the perfect donut. Not greasy at all. We highly recommend Nikki's Cafe if you're around Capistrano. read more

I like the spot. It's outdoors and cutesy. I had heard it was good so I came since I live nearby. I really like the outdoorsy setup. It reminds me of Europe a little it. Unfortunately , the food was disappointing . My husband had the steak burrito and he said the meat is awful. He said it had a weird texture and taste. I had the chorizo breakfast burrito. It was okay. I paid extra for avocado. It was mostly filled with egg and potatoes, not much chorizo in there. Egg was like the filler with bits of chorizo. It was expensive for the price. Each burrito is about $15, which would be okay if the food was worth the price. Cheap quality food with high prices. The service was nice. The lady was really nice. It was okay, but I am not coming back. read more

The nachos are amazing! The service is amazing. my kids love the donuts holes. The burritos are amazing. We love Nikki's Cafe. Highly recommend. read more

Every single time I order a carne asada breakfast burrito, they give me the regular non breakfast one!!

The food here is really good - I recommend the Louisiana sausage breakfast burrito (with no potatoes). My kids LOVE the french toast - a full order is plenty for them to share. The only bummer is that they don't make their own donuts, and they are usually out of donut holes by the time i am there... Ill be back here soon! Maybe this weekend! Who knows!? read more

The food was decent--nothing exceptional, but not bad either. Prices were about average for the area. I'd consider going back, though it likely wouldn't be my first choice. The eggs appeared to be an egg product rather than freshly cracked eggs, and the bacon was a bit on the salty side. However, the burritos were pleasantly not overly greasy, which was a nice change compared to similar spots. Parking is quite limited, and there were a number of day laborers present in the lot during my visit. They did have a good variety of classic donuts, which was a plus. read more

Fluffy chocolate bar, delicious hot coffee and yummy rancheros...them beans are amazing Staff quick and friendly read more

This is a tiny neighborhood joint - no indoor seating; maybe 4 outdoor patio tables - with really good food! It was my 1st time here; I had the breakfast burrito with corned beef hash and my brother had the machaka chicken burrito. Both were VERY generous, delicious and came nicely wrapped in parchment and foil - very easy to eat without any mess. They came with a very nicely sautéed jalapeño pepper on the side and a small container of excellent salsa. Very good Colombian coffee! Plenty of good food! Chef came out several times to make sure everything was good. Would definitely go back again. read more

Donuts and more! After finishing up a Costco trip across the street, we finally gave this place a try yesterday and it did not disappoint. Oh my, the grilled cheese though They have been recognized in local media for a special maple bar that's filled with bacon! Walk up counter ordering. There is an outdoor seating area. read more

Nikki's Cafe - So good. This was the three egg omelet. Awesome - Donuts Near Me - Capistrano Beach, California

Service great! Props to the Cooks. They revamped the place, and it is so yummy. They have breakfast and more. They now have amazing street tacos. I had the asada and carnitas and was so impressed. I will be back often. Family of four got delicious food and a desert (donut) for an amazing price. The staff really knows how to cook back there. I am surprised we didn't have to wait. I really couldn't say better things about this place. read more

I started coming here for the ham and cheese croissant. A wonderful warm and not over ham breakfast. Thin sliced ham is the key and they nail it. Then I tried their Mexican food. The carnitas burrito is $10 but it weights 3 pounds. Meat rice Beens on loon and cilantro with a great fresh salsa. So worth it. Today tried the huevos rancheros. So good. Slit it and still too much. Perfect. Down to the roasted chili on the side. For a smal place with an outside patio this is your spot read more

Friendly local breakfast/lunch spot. Traditional breakfast foods plus some Mexican dishes. Portions are huge! Service was friendly. Food was decent - certainly not bad, but not exceptional. read more

Tacos and burritos (breakfast & lunch) are amazing. Service is great and fast. We are frequent visitors and suggest others to be as well.

This is THE place for a breakfast burrito in Dana! First, it's huge. Which is always a + Second, it's delicious! Lastly, it's more than affordable. The staff is always friendly, especially my girl at the register. And the guys in back are all smiles! Don't sleep on Nikki's read more

Omg! You guys...they now have a corned beef burrito!! RUN!!! I've updated the rating to a 5 star experience. Momma at the counter is really super sweet. I hope the new owners are treating them well. They make this little hole in the wall (with the fresh donuts to boot) shine. read more

Good stuff, great service, and I loved the. Maple bar pastry I had. Every time I go the food is fresh.

Wonderful selection of breakfast burritos and sandwiches. I ordered the Turkey, bacon, egg cheese and avocado breakfast burrito! Best around!! Doughnuts are fresh and delicious. Coffee was great! Even gave me two free orange juices. The service was excellent. Outdoor patio seems dog friendly, I'll be back with my pups for another amazing breakfast soon. read more

Terrible. $13 for a breakfast torta and it was so bland and flavorless. Complete ripoff. This is not even really a mexican restaurant. It's a donut shop with food. Awful. read more

A coworker suggested this place so thought I'd try it before I went to work. I couldn't find it at first cuz the place is tiny Went inside and they had donuts and a big menu but their card machine wasn't working. Luckily I had some cash on me though Got the pancakes, 2 eggs, and sausage The pancakes were good but the eggs and sausage were cold so had to toss it Overall, the pancakes were good and they welcome you when you walk in but that's about it read more

Nikki's Cafe - Donuts Near Me - Capistrano Beach, California

Didn't actually go there because the lady who answered the phone was incredibly off putting. She sighed when I asked her if she had an outside patio and answered with a very rude "yeah." Um, no thanks. read more

Place has potential, Ive had some great food here. But Ive also had times where my dish was just half assed together. And there are plenty of times were the workers tend to talk and not focus on the food while im waiting on it, once taking upwards of 10 minutes for a bagel. But not to dismiss that they're friendly people. And another thing Ive noticed is that I usually have the same order, and its charged at different prices each time. Not a bad place to eat, but can be improved read more

The breakfast burrito with chorizo and potato is amazing. Best breakfast burrito I've had.

Best Mexican food, ever! Carnitas is the absolute best! Crunchy, seasoned to perfection! And they are opened early AM. My new go to! Love this place! read more

We ordered a breakfast burrito and added avocado, it was delicious, and so big two adults can split it. The service was great, and fast. We also grabbed donuts to go, I enjoyed mine! read more

Food is still bomb but their phone is still not being answered or it's not working (I checked the phone number with the business and it's correct). When you're always on the move and need to pick up it's annoying to have communication cut off like that. Its been several separate occasions that I try to order calling in and nothing read more

Horrible. Worst burger I have ever had. Place was a mess despite an all new kitchen. The cooks were just goofing around and really just flopped together my burger. When I looked at the menu I had to really question if those guys were qualified to put together the items that were on the menu. All the paper with the stuff scribbled on it ,weird random menu items. I don't know who Nikki is. But, she sure F'd up a classic restaurant. Donut World was historic and just needed a kitchen remodel. I ate there my entire life and always enjoyed it. That was one of my favorite spots to go for lunch when I was working for my dad's landscape company as a kid. Maybe when your café fails I will bring it back to the glory it should it be at. With the historical recognition it deserves. read more

What kind people working at Nikki's! We stopped in this morning (btw love the name as Nikki is our daughter ;) to grab a quick bite and SOO glad we did! Not only were the donuts so fresh and amazing but we ordered full breakfasts too. My husband's scramble and my vege breakfast burrito were huge and absolutely DELICIOUS!! Ingredients were super fresh and very satisfying and reasonably priced. GREAT FOOD!! KIND STAFF!! Thank you for a bright spot in our day! God bless! read more

Went here to buy some donuts and milk. WHAT?!?! How do you sell donuts and DON'T sell MILK!?!? Epic FAIL Nikki's!! I just walked out. I can't imagine the donuts are any good, but I didn't even get that far because there was no milk. If you're lucky I may try again, but I doubt it. read more

My fiancé had a Breakfast burrito and he said it was good. The reason for the two stars is because the French Toast Plate was the worse I have ever had. The sausage was under cooked and the French Toast was thin white bread and under cooked just tasted bad. My fiancé who eats anything tried it without me saying anything and he spit it out into the kitchen trash can, so I knew it wasn't just me. The staff is very friendly however the cashier didn't understand English and it was hard to order she tried and I appreciate that, she was very nice. I know very little Spanish I need to learn more always good to know more languages for anyone. My recommendation is to order the Mexican dishes and stay far away from the French Toast and sausages. read more

This place is Great! The girl at the counter was very friendly. The tacos were definitely! I had asada and pastor which were delicious and the wife had tripas which she loved. We got an apple fritter for desert which was a perfect meal. Thank you for your wonderful restaurant read more
