Surfin' Donuts certainly has the reputation for being one of the best breakfast spots in town for good reason - they simply excel at everything they do. You really can't go wrong with any donut or burrito, as they're absolutely solid. Prices have gone up through time and it's admittedly more expensive than its competitors, but you're getting quality and value. I unfortunately recently had a subpar experience when I ordered a corned beef burrito one breakfast morning. The order took considerably long, and I'll admit they're a bit on the slow side in general when it comes to this, but it was unfortunate that it was nearly thirty minutes before I got my burrito and I was on a time crunch. Again, that's on me. What was disheartening was seeing a number of people who ordered after me get their burritos first, some quite considerably quickly, but I also get that the more standard breakfast orders are probably more prepped to go and can be whipped out much quicker. When I got the burrito, it was so floppy and had no structural integrity, which was disappointing. I normally like it to be a handheld meal, but it ended up being an open-faced breakfast on tortilla, and I didn't have nearly enough salsa to wash it down. It was certainly delicious, but I was pretty soured. I'll be back for sure, but I'll say this wasn't a great experience. TIP: The doughrito is always a fun option, check it out, it's as glorious as you would expect it to be.

Club sandwich and fries.
Martie L.

I was looking for a sandwich place, and found this one on YELP. I ordered the Club Sandwich to go, and the food certainly didn't disappoint! The portion was more than generous, and the price-$16.95- was incredibly reasonable. The fries were done exactly to my liking, crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. The young man who took my order, on the other hand, could not have been less interested in being there. His affect and lack of communication reminded me of my 13 year old son, whose responses consisted of grunts and one word answers. There was a pleasant woman sweeping up, she smiled at me, and when I left she wished me a good day. Definitely go for the food, but don't expect much from the service.

Only a few left. Great setup and portions

I've got this place to thank for making me look good for a bday delivery during COVID that turned on a family friend (and my pastor) to this place. He has now referred many people to here for the amazing breakfast burritos (green chile, meat lovers and sausage) and we even had them supply 3 types of burritos and an assortment of donuts for our volunteer meeting today in Irvine near Spectrum. You've just garnered many more new fans!

Sausage Breakfast Sandwich
Rob G.

Had the sausage breakfast sandwich. I selected the sourdough but got the croissant so maybe they were out of sourdough. Idk. The sandwich was delicious though. I'll def order from here again. Very good!

Jim B.

I was just in there and there was a little wait. Jalisa(not sure how to spell it, sorry!) was very apologetic and made everything right. She was running around so busy, and she still made time to make sure I was happy. Not only was it the best breakfast burrito I've ever had, but the customer service I got from Jalisa was top notch. Thank you Jalisa! Because of you I will be back often. Thank you again Jalisa

This is a meat lovers omlette with added steak!

Amazing brekfast omlettes and burritos!!! They even have brekfast quesadillas!!!!! This place has everything!!

Bacon, Egg, & Cheese Croissant Sandwich
Kelsey H.

This was my 2nd time here loved everything.Your welcomed by the warm smiles of the staff and acknowledged. It was a chill vibe and have a tv with tables to eat if eating in. I ordered a bacon,egg, and cheese croissant with 6 donut holes. I took it to go and got my donut holes first then my croissant sandwich came out like 10-15min after. They're busy in the morning so if you don't have too much time order ahead. They're also on door dash as well. Donut holes are fresh like their donuts and the croissant sandwich hit the spot! I will definitely be back to try other food on the menu and their coffee!

Table where a kid sold Asian Trinkets in dining Room. Why?
Peter T.

I'm surprised that this place is still rated as high as it is. Came here on Mother's Day to get a quick breakfast. You can usually tell when a restaurant is on the decline when they start storing kitchen equipment in the dining room. I'm also for teaching kids the entrepreneurial spirit but allowing them to set up a table to sell trinkets in the dining room is so tacky. Compared with a few years ago this place is really run down. At least they changed out the broken chairs and tables. Too bad as the food is pretty good. Seems as most of the other customers also have the same opinion as they all were getting to go items.

Egg, bacon and sausage burrito.
Theresa H.

My breakfast burrito was huge, delicious, tasty!!! Omg! We all ordered burritos and loved them. The green salsa verde was excellent on the side also. They were delivered to the house nice and hot. My daughter had their breakfast sandwich that she loved also. An egg, bacon and cheese! They are nice generous portions too. Great job!!!!!

Bacon Breakfast Burrito
Rob M.

Wow got the Bacon, breakfast burrito good size for the money tortilla is not too thick. The kid that took my order was super nice. Took about 10 minutes to get my food but well worth it. small clean and nice place with tables. did not expect for a donut place to have that size of menu for made it order food. For sure I'm going back.

Right on the main strip of San Juan Capistrano Checked in and told it was a quick wait so we grabbed some coffee at their counter cafe and walked the strip. 20 min later we were seated. The ambience is casual but the ties in all the decor and them so nicely it made the vibe feel some what vintage island classy(if that makes sense) A nice surprise, it's not Hawaiian but more hybrid with a Filipino flair. Wifey and I shared the "easy breezy" she wanted something sweet and I wanted savory so that plate was able to check both boxes. Got the Longonisa sausage which had the amazing chunks of fat inside and they fillet it which gave more crisp texture. For eggs over medium perfectly cooked. Came with these yummy deep fried quartered small potatoes super crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Wifey got the Ube French toast with it which were not too sweet but still eggy sweet delicious with the ube flavor standing out. The toasts were thick and pillowy, with a perfect golden brown color. We also added a side of garlic rice. Let's not forget the vinegar dip with some chilis and garlic perfect acidity for the savory longonisa sausage if there was anything at all to improve it was the garlic rice. I was hoping it would have some tiny garlic pieces in it but maybe I got the portion that didn't have garlic gotta try it again! The staff was amazing quick and responsive I met the owners who are the coolest and sweetest couple. overall a great spot for a meal at any time during the day.

All are welcome - you don't need to be a golfer. My waitress was Laurrie, who was very attentive and sweet. She knows how to make a diner feel comfortable and welcome. I was seated on the covered terrace with a beautiful view of the well-manicured golf course. I ordered the pain perdu (french toast) with a side of bacon and a cup of coffee. The coffee was good, solid, but nothing out of the ordinary. The smokey bacon (4 strips) was fantastic, hitting that sweet spot of being partly crisp and partly chewy. The pain perdu was up with the best; vanilla-battered thick-cut challah bread with strawberries. The thick, pillowy bread is what made it great. Each slice looked chunky but was so soft and easily soaked up the syrup like a sponge. The sliced strawberries were vibrant with the perfect texture and flavor you hope for.

Service was very friendly, nice, and attentive... and they serve decent portioned dishes of "seasonally inspired cuisine" of mainly delicious looking sandwiches, flatbreads, and salads. I ordered the California tuna melt, my wife ordered the Cheeseburger, and our friend ordered the BLTA sandwich.... each with a choice of their houses fries or chips. Ooooh, such a hard choice as we love both... so we ordered some of both. The tuna melt was really good....took me a bit by surprise with chopped pickled jalapeños, but it definitely gave a nice punch and heat to a usually pretty simple flavor. And as for those house chips...yummee! Very addictive. Everybody else really enjoyed their orders too, but then again, coming here was all about the entire experience of great views, a peaceful, relaxing, uncrowded atmosphere to enjoy great company with good friends.... and very good service. I'm now a huge fan of this place and will definitely be back. In fact, I'd consider this place a hidden gem that, thankfully, I think not many people know about yet..... hope it stays this way :)
