Came here for breakfast, we got seated right away. Not a big place, ambiance felt like home. Food was great! The only part I didn't like was that our waitress didn't have much patience and we felt rushed by her. read more

This place has really good breakfast. I like the fresh fruit and quality ingredients have yet to have a bad meal here. The restaurant is boutique Style small and original and there is also a small outdoor patio area I think four or five tables maybe. I love to go here on days when I'm ready to have French toast or pancakes. Really like the breakfast year wish they made homemade biscuits and gravy nobody is doing that and San Pedro yet read more

Rex's Cafe - Oh my oh my - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - San Pedro, California

San Pedro is starting to grow on me with another hidden gem! I've heard that there are many great breakfast/brunch places in San Pedro and this is one of them. My friend and I arrived here on a Saturday morning around 11am. Since we opted for first available seating, we were led outside to their small patio. The waitress took our order and the food arrived shortly after. I had the veggie scramble with breakfast potatoes and a lemon muffin. I pretty much licked my plate clean and did NOT feel uncomfortably full. The veggie scramble was made with fresh veggies such as mushrooms, mini broccoli, tomatoes, onions, and zucchini. Everything tasted "light" and not much grease was left on the plate. The potatoes were seasoned and cooked just right. I had a couple of bites of the lemon muffin and I really enjoyed the small lemon chunks, it made the muffin unique in texture as well as taste. It wasn't too sweet or dense. Service was friendly and efficient. Portions are fair. Credit cards are accepted. What more can I ask for?! By the way, street parking only, but not too difficult. read more

Rex's Cafe - Veggie scrambler and lemon muffin - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - San Pedro, California

Usually I won't venture down to Pacific or past unless I'm headed into downtown San Pedro for some event, but Rex's is so f'ing tasty. My favorite? The French Connection with fresh fruit. I order it without melons (honeydew, cantaloupe, etc.), and it still comes out plentiful and beautiful. Get it with turkey or regular bacon inside...both are delicious. The coffee is great, too. My friend is a huge fan of the cinnamon lattes. I have yet to try one, but I trust her judgment. There's usually a bit of a wait during breakfast/brunch time on the weekends, but do not let this deter you. It's one of the best places to eat in San Pedro, and the staff is really nice and accommodating. If you can handle the riffraff hanging around in the area, it's definitely worth the wait. There's indoor and outdoor seating. Sit outside when it's a nice day and people watch. San Pedro locals never fail to disappoint. ;) read more

Rex's Cafe - French Connection with fresh fruit. Mmmmm. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - San Pedro, California

I came here with my three coworkers yesterday. The cafe is very clean and stylish. There is also outdoor seating. There is plenty of 2 hour parking on the street adjacent to and in front of the cafe. Our service was great. Our hostess and waiter were very friendly. The bathroom was older but clean. I ordered the Teriyaki Stir Fry with Chicken. It had plenty of rice. It was tasty. However, if I return I would not order it a second time. It was pricey for the meal I received at 8.95. My coworkers ordered the Burger Lunch, Patty Melt, and Rex's Omelet. All three echoed what I wrote above. One of my coworkers did not like her potatoes and the waitress happily changed them out for fruit. As such, Five Stars on the great service with no 'tude! I respect all opinions that I read on this board about Rex's. I also appreciate all the restaurants that San Pedro has to offer for the locals and for us who work in the area. As such, I think I would prefer eating any breakfasts down the street at the Omelet Waffle Shop. The burger..I would prefer the Brewery. Patty melt, well I guess those are good anywhere. I do regret not ordering the "special " which was French Toast . Usually when I stick to the specials, I never go wrong. I will post pictures of the food. of the food. read more

Rex is my favorite breakfast spot in San Pedro. This place is small and quaint, but this only adds to the charm. The waitresses and busboy are all very sweet and accommodating. My family likes to come here on Sundays and the servers never miss a beat. Coffee and water stay all the way full. One of their staples is of course the green eggs Cabrillo which is great. Poached eggs are always cooked perfectly! Al dente! This past visit I had a cup of yogurt and granola with a side of one poached egg. This was a perfectly sized meal for me. The granola is made from Rex's from scratch! The low fat yogurt was great, not sweet at all and perfect level of tartiness. They topped it all with bananas which were fine. I would order this again and would recommend this place for breakfast / lunch to anyone in the area! :) read more

Cozy lil restaurant w a patio made for doll-sized ppl. Decently good.. Esp since there seems to be a lack of anything decently healthy in the near vicinity. Veggie omelet had carrots broccoli n the slightest sprinkle of spinach (not even sure how they managed to pull that one off cause there was such a minuscule amount hahaa) but I could see a few lil bits of it. Came w salsa verde and ketchup and a side of fruit. We were starved from the full day of swimming around a pool w no break so we inhaled it but, as hungry as we were, it still wasn't a stand out ommie.... But don't unbookmark them! it's pretty much at the top of the list as far as good options on this block so keep this place handy just in case u find yourself needing a bite. Doubt i'll be back since i'm rarely in the area but it's def not the worst place to go. read more

Cute little place in San Pedro. My spinach salad was soo good! Baby spinach was very fresh, chopped red onion, tomatos, even bacon was tasty. We had to wait a bit. The place was that busy on Thursday lunch. Most of all I liked their fiesta cups and plates. Cute little decorations all around made the place homely. Very nice service also! read more

A taste of Berkeley in So Cal! Finally, a great breakfast place that feels like home! From the attractive decor to the variety of customers to the tasty and healthy menu, this is a fantastic place and worth the drive! I love how they ask if you want regular or turkey bacon, and the "side of fruit" is a bowl of fruit salad. Not the average cantaloupe and honeydew! Your other side options are potatoes or brown rice! Yes, brown rice! I feel healthier just writing this review! I had the Green Eggs Cabrillo which is eggs benedict with spinach, ham and jack cheese. Delicious! And I didn't even miss the hollandaise. I think next time I'm getting the Eggs Benny which is eggs benedict with sausage patties. Tom enjoyed the Mexican omelette with chorizo and he swapped the bell peppers for ortega chilies. The service was quick and friendly, with lots of beverage refills and checking back frequently - even though the place was pretty busy. Thanks, Brian for taking us to another wonderful place!! I know we'll be back to Rex's Cafe very soon! read more

Was looking for a spot to grab some food before exploring San pedro and cane across Rex's. Small Mexican inspired diner food at a pretty decent price. All the staff was running around but attentive to all the customers, and extremely friendly. The breakfast burrito was pretty damn good, but tge chilaquiles was fucking insane. Highly recommend stopping by, I can't wait to go back and try more food The food looked too good to snap a pic but was very appealing to the eye for you foodies. read more

Best coffee in town. Food epic. Pricing fair. Staff fast, efficient and pleasant. We did take out and were delighted.

One of the best places for breakfast I've found so far. Check out my pics, you'll see for your yourself. My friend took me there who is a San Pedro native. She said Rex's has been around a long time. I can see why. It's great. I had the Huevos Rexeros (see pic.) So good. The refried beans had a nice smoky flavor. All the food was high quality and pretty healthy for what it is. I had a pancake on the side. Glad I just ordered one. It was huge! I couldn't even finish it...but it was delicious. I took off one star because the ice tea was super weak...and on top of that, I didn't get offered a refill. I had to track down another waitress to get one. The bathroom was really "cute." See the pic. They have a chair set next to the toilet. Don't know why it's there. Maybe some people go in pairs? (: read more

Love the breakfast here. Great pancakes. Service always good. Cozy and friendly place.

First time here and absolutely loved it. I ordered the rex omelette with hashbrowns and a strawberry coconut muffin and everything was scrummy. The spot is very cute and homey. Our waitress was very kind and lovely. read more

Breakfast here has always been good. Parking sucks and it's a small venue but once you're seated the food is amazing. If it was in a better location I would visit a lot more. Chilaquiles and pancakes are so good! read more

Our band Hutchie spent a few days recording and playing shows in San Pedro and this is by far the best restaurant around! The food was fresh, reasonably priced and the hospitality felt like someone inviting you into their home to cook for you. Great options for vegans and people with dietary restrictions. We will definitely go there again next trip! read more

Great friendly place with friendly and happy waitresses! This is a great place to visit for brunch and their huge cappucinos! Their scramblers are packed with ingredients and flavor, so i recommend those. The bacon is lean, but we tried the turkeu sausages, which tasted good. Parking was a bit tough, and there could be a short wait. read more

Food was great, appears to be a family ran restaurant. Would've given 5 stars, but the person cleaning the tables was cleaning with bleach, and it stained my clothing when he okay'd is to be seated. Other than that food was delicious:) read more

Consistently great food! Thank you! I have been a customer her for years but I am a more frequent customer since I work close by. So nice to be able to get a tasty salad without doing the work! read more

Everyone loves this place. I've tried it three times and it's fine, nothing special. Give it a try anyway, everyone else adores this restaurant! read more

Expect to be full! Unless you have a big appetite, I suggest you share a meal. I eat my food and some of my wife's even after I was already full. I almost needed a wheelbarrow to get me out of here. The food was delicious! I have no pics of the food because it looked so good we wanted to dig in right away. A definite return place to come eat. read more

As a vegetarian, really happy here. At least 3 vegetarian egg options, the standard veggie omelette, a vegetarian chili omelette, and a soy chorizo omelette. Four stars vs. five as the vegetarian chili omelette was just ok. Wife liked the 'standard' vegetarian breakfast burrito. Will be back to try the other veggie options, the suspect the number of stars will improve. Service was great. We drink a lot of coffee and the cup was *always* full and hot. A big plus. A friendly 'small town in a big city' atmosphere. read more

Came for brunch after seeing those stuffed French toast pics. The stuffed French toast did not disappoint! They have 2 options, one comes with eggs and sausage but it only has two slices of French toast. The other option has no eggs and sausage but comes with three slices. Definitely get the three slices one and split something else! Tried the Machaca Omelet and it was also delicious. Parking is just on the street around and the wait time wasn't too long at all but that might just be because we came for brunch on a Monday. Overall I'd come back for that stuffed French toast yumm read more

The hostess/server there is a complete idiot. She has absolutely no hospitality training whatsoever. Nobody in the restaurant had masks on they were socializing and talking. She railed me about putting on my mask and she did in a way she made me feel like a criminal instead of a customer. I've been living in San Pedro for 34 years and frequent a lot of restaurants I never felt so disrespected in my time in San Pedro. Not coming back ever. read more

I seem to be on a lucky streak. Rex's is a small cafe on the the corner and has little parking. This is a great little place that, if I lived here, I could be a regular at. The restaurant is clean and bright. The service (Jessica?) was great. Both my daughter and I had the stuffed French toast with eggs and sausage. Eggs and sausage were good and very hot, nothing special, but the toast was delicious. Not sure what they stuff it with, but with the fresh banana and strawberries it is delicious. The prices are pretty reasonable for this area. My only complaint would be the Cappuccino. Not a fan of the coffee but I'm kinda snobby with coffee. I'll probably be back here in the next few days. read more

Good food and good friendly service! Never know what I'm gonna have til I get there! I think I do, but, then I see the special for the day....game changer! What are you waiting for....go! read more

Got coffee (latte) from here once and the woman making it wasn't too friendly. The prices were also a bit much. The coffee wasn't good. Might return to try again but not sure if it's worth it. read more

Cute little cafe that I came to for breakfast after going on a hike at trump trails. It was a Sunday around 11am and surprisingly there was only a 5 minute wait so even better! Staff was friendly too and made sure to check up on us every few minutes. Lots of choices to choose from so it made it harder to decide on what to get lol but I ended up getting the breakfast wrap with fruit. Potion size was a bit smaller than what I expected, but it was still filling. Their stuffed French toast looks delicious so ill have to try that next. Only downfall about this place is the parking, but other than that wouldn't mind coming back again. read more

Came here with some friends for brunch. I'm pretty particular when it comes to chilaquiles, so when I saw reviews about Rex's, I decided to give their's a try. I'm glad I did! They were REALLY good -- crispy, flavorful, filling. My favorite chilaquiles are from Nena's in Stockton, but Rex's are pretty dang good. I'll definitely be coming back to get my chilaquiles fix from now on! Parking situation is so-so and the neighborhood was slightly sketchy. read more
