Been here twice now, both through the drive-thru (who doesn't love a good drive-thru!?). First time ordered a gyro, burger and fries. All excellent. Second time ordered just the fried zucchini and fried mushrooms. The zucchini was perfect! The batter on the fried mushrooms was not very good. Bad, in fact. Would not ordered again. But the zucchini is one of the best I've tried anywhere. Sure hope they survive. Love having alternatives to fast food. read more

Hands down the best fast food tuna melt! The portions are pretty big too. When I get the meal that comes with a side of fries, I can usually get 2 meals out of it. I use to go to Pilates classes a few times a week down by the beach and pass Paul's Place. It would take everything in me not to stop on the way home, I would cave quite often read more

Chicken salad was amazing! Chicken was cooked perfectly and great flavor. Service is polite and ensure you get the items you need on your order. Ambiance is a good spot for a semi quick lunch. read more

Everything smells and tastes fantastic here; their fried mushrooms and gyros are epic, never dry, perfectly seasoned, very moist because the chef sprays moisture on the lamb as he grills it. Now, I know Im not supposed to have Baklava, but the way the lady gently tongs it onto a pretty napkin before bagging it gave me goosebumps, and I had to see it again...plus eat a bite. Wowwww my tastebuds are dancing read more

Delicious. Got the mushroom swiss cheeseburger, chili fries, and fried mushrooms. The food was well made. Great seasoning and sauces

Pay no attention to these prices...the Pastrami is now 16.99... :/ I know everything's gone up in price these days but I thought for a pastrami that was a little high. read more

Food is good, sadly prices have increased considerably. Many sandwiches used to come with fries but no more.

The breakfast latter with, home fries, scrambled eggs with onion, bell peppers, and cheese, plus 6 slices of bacon with sourdough toast was awesome. The service was very good and the atmosphere was quiet. That's enjoyable. read more

This location is amazing! Breakfast burritos, burgers and gyros! Friendly people! Same workers there for years! Also keep in mind à Burger King and McDonald's are across the street it's still strong. This being shown as 3 star. Is either yelp being a hater! Or ppl are just out of their minds and just wanna complain! This is better than tanners! Or any other burger place in Oceanside! Angelo's is up there too! read more

Please toast buns more and add some seasoning to the patties and fries. My burger buns went straight to mush and the meat was so plain right out the box. Found wax paper on the patty too gross man. Got food in the drive thru and for 80c ranch it was mid but whatever. Fries were cooked perfect but i need some flavor forreal. read more

I've lived just up the street from Paul's for 16 years and it's still the best place around. Best food, best fries OMG, great prices and everything on the menu you can imagine. The people are the best too, always so nice and friendly. Support your local family business....everything is made fresh on the spot. Love Paul's read more

Great old school burger joint. You can't get the same flavor from new places. Great burgers, fries, and onion rings.

I really enjoyed this place. It reminded me of breakfast at home. My eggs and bacon cooked to perfection. The bacon is crispy and flavorable. The potatoes seasoned and cooked crispy. The service was great, and the time received food was acceptable. I overall give this place 4 stars. A must try if you are in Oceanside. read more

Ordered a sausaged egg cheese potato breakfast burrito. Worst one I've ever had in my whole life. They could improve on it a lot

Paul's place is located in the devil burger triangle that close to the Mcdanal's and the Burger King. Unless that location, The Paul's place can be loved many people. There are variety of burgers, Burritos, sides, drinks, etc... including Kid's menu! Interiors of the restaurant are mood of oldy's. To be honest, not new but not unclean. The door of the men's restroom is little bit old. Taste and volume are both OK. read more

We've come here as a family for years. It is a Greek owned hamburger diner type Resturant. You order at the counter, you pay, they will pour drinks (free refills) and you find your seat in what use to be an American Mexican chain (? Del Taco) type fast food Resturant. They have been around for probably 30+ years. My daughter was a classmate to one of the owners sons many years ago. So they have a long history at that location. They have a drive thru window if you want to just pick something up to take home. Staff is always friendly and helpful. As our kids are grown and on their own, my husband and I go through the drive thru and get an order of 1/2 Greek chicken dinner and split it. It is enough food for the both of us. He likes the breast meat and I like the leg and wing. Its crispy skin is consistently tasty and the meat moist. It comes with a simple Romain lettuce salad, rice Pilaf, and Pita bread and it is at a good price. A very complete and healthy meal. Over the years we, we have enjoyed their hamburgers, diner style fries, Gyros and other items on their extensive menu that is on a board above where the cooks are preparing meals. There restrooms are on the outside back of the Resturant . They are clean and locked, but very basic. It's not a fancy place, but the food is good. read more

My family went to go wash our hands in the restroom and there was no soap! My husband asked the gentleman and he just ignored him. I went to the front and asked if they had any soap for the restroom and another gentleman answered me, "Are you going to eat here?" My response was of course my family and I just want to wash our hands before we eat. He said that the owner had the key to fill up the powder soap in the mornings. Then another lady that was there came up to us and interrupted really rudely that they didn't have any soap. I responded with how do you guys wash your hands and she said with hand sanitizer!? I told her that that is disgusting you guys are handling food and that that is not the same as washing your hands she proceeded with that she didn't care and that I should go home and wash my hands you stupid B **** in front of my family and kids! I responded with I will never come back here again! She responded with I don't care! Don't!!I will be emailing Department of Health Services. Good luck to people that eat here! Don't get sick! Ambiance was nobody in the establishment was eating there. One person in the drive thru! read more

Still 2 stars. Wanted a quick chicken sandwich and fries. Piece of chicken on the sandwich was small and thin. Fries are also now thin. Still hungry. Was like a child's meal.$16 down the drain. read more

Oh my. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger and chili cheese fries through the drive thru. They must have misheard me and I ended up receiving a double bacon cheeseburger instead of the single. I ain't even mad about it though. It was sooooo good. I really enjoyed the burger. I mean like, really. Thank you Paul's place for the happiness that my taste buds experienced. The chili cheese fries were good, large amount, chili was very peppery tasting but I won't complain. This is going to become my go-to spot for my burger cravings. read more

this was my second visit to Paul's place. Super nice staff. I like to support this place as a small business that makes real food. None of that food that's cut with soy to make the product go further for more money. Food repaired quick with lots of quality. Their food may be a dollar or two more but I believe it's worth it. Please support the small business that has delicious food read more

We've been coming to Paul's Place for a few years now. We love the Paul's 1/2 pound combo. The burger is huge, could split it if you wanted. The fries are great as are the fried zucchini. We always drive through so haven't eaten inside. The make everything to order so it really not fast food but definitely worth the wait in the drive through. Whenever I'm craving a great burger this is where I go! read more

Ambience is very dull . Service is okay . The food was okay , a bit pricey for what you get .

They are pretty stingy with the condiments. I asked if they could put extra hot sauce for my home fries And she gave me two as much money as I spent here I should be allowed to have more than two hot sauce packets. They do this each and every time. I know it sounds petty but it's all about Customer service Why catch an attitude because I asked for extra hot sauce packets, or catch up read more

The normal lady at the drive thru window is nice as always but I've noticed that the food quality has diminished in the last year or so. I ordered a 1/4lb cheeseburger combo meal today ($15) and the bread was either stale or had been toasted for so long that the bread was hard and crumbly. The fries also appear to be overdone. I think at this point Algelo's Burgers is the better bang for your buck. read more

We've had a long history with Paul's Place, but years ago after being disappointed by their pastrami sandwiches too many times, we stopped going. Tonight we wanted a burger that was a step up from McD's, but not a $20 gourmet sit down type meal. We had a pastrami burger and the double bacon avo cheeseburger and it totally hit the spot. I would order burgers there again and skip the pastrami sandwiches. Solid fried mushrooms and chili cheese fries too if you want to go for all the unhealthy goodies. Prices have definitely gone up from the menu posted. I'm adding a pic of current menu prices. Still pretty reasonable prices for large portions. read more

We really love dining inside - traditional diner vibe. Everyone is really sweet and great service. We noticed serving sizes have gotten a little smaller over the years with some of our favorite things we usually order - but honestly that's with the cost of food going up everywhere we aren't surprised by it nor do we blame small businesses for having to do so. We love the chilli cheese fries, steak and eggs, onion rings, fried mushrooms, Greek salad here... read more

Food is pretty good but prices are much higher than menus that are seen online. They need to have a current website showing prices that are accurate. read more

I love the many food options they offer. Their Breakfast burritos are by far the best in town! I love the sides: fried zucchini and chili cheese fries with ranch dressing are always my go to's. read more

Love the food and the service!! This place has been around for decades and dated inside, but it doesn't change the charm amd quality if the food. read more

The lady was very rude and not working well with me.I don't like her attitude that she had and was yelling at me.

Making the food fresh nobody wants a hamburger patty that's been sitting around for who's knows how long/onion ring also cold .

I cannot lie inside is dated but the food thou.. is what slaps!! I love the mom and pop shop vibes here. The prices are fair and food Texas size givens. Staff is easy going and super friendly. The french toast is delicious but I wish it came with something to really stand out but I get it.. it's fast food. Loved that it was french toast and not sticks. The chill cheese with onions has that traditional easy coast comfort feel. Which is PERFECT for today cause freakin cold today. It just warmth my soul with it meaty goodness (pause). Wish I got more bacon on my burger or got a bacon tower cause the bacon was so crispy and just sexy ASF!! Definitely could have me a bacon sandwich or bacon mountain. read more

I like these places for breakfast any time. Paul's is great for good food, good service and reasonable prices.

Great little restaurant! Everything I've ordered has been reasonably priced and portioned well. I wouldn't consider it "fast food" as you'll sit in the drive thru for a few while they make your food fresh. But it's well worth the wait! Give this place a try and you'll not regret it! Has been my go-to for home-cooked breakfast for a few years now! read more

Great food, always quick drive thru. Been going here since I was a wee-lad. Also, their baklava slaps

Been coming here weekly for a while now.. Bacon cheeseburger combo has always been $12.80 Until today they wanted to charge $15 for the same exact meal I've been getting. Honestly felt like the cashier was just trying to charge extra for no reason. Sad to see the small businesses around here have become unreliable. Pushes you right across the street to eat at large corporate businesses. Can't trust anyone nowadays read more

Yummy comfort food! Best fries hands down and the portions are generous! They make a perfect Patty Melt with the onions grilled perfectly and tons of gooey cheese. read more

Decent food. Nothing particularly amazing though. Overpriced for what it is. Typical American diner.

Service here is always tip top, whether drive thru or dine- in, the people are great. Food has always been fresh and hot. Tables are kept clean, and servers are attentive. Whether you want a burger or an omlette, the food and experience will not disappoint. read more
