    Huevos benedictos

    The food was pretty bland but I guess that's what the salt, pepper, and condiments were for. The muffin was too chewy. The service was excellent and the $15 bottomless mimosas was a great deal

    I made a quick stop here before a long drive. I ordered the breakfast sandwich with bacon and cheddar cheese on a bagel. They loaded the sandwich with protein and the service was friendly and quick.

    Service is good, food is good. Small indoor dining and somewhat lager patio seating, you could also grab anything to go. Today I used a BOGO deal from SLOeats app, My only gripe is my breakfast burrito was hiding very old avocado and if they're going to do that personally I'd rather omit that. The portion for one burrito is a lot! Come hungry. Decent breakfast burrito but even without the avocado not the best in the area, if you follow me you should already know who holds my heart and where to find the best! If not DM me I'll share.

    Checked this place out during a college tour trip with my daughter. She wanted brunch and happy to find this place Had waffles, eggs Benedict and an omelet. Jeff, the owner, was super friendly and made us feel welcome! Will definitely come back if we're in the area again!

    Food was so full of Flavor and chorizo and yummy. We had the the buzz burrito and el Diablo. The habanero salsa was sooo yummy. The staff is friendly and kept my coffee full. Tuesday is bogo day so bring a friend or take a burrito home.

    My partner and I wanted some quick breakfast to munch on since we had a long drive ahead of us. The food was pretty fast and tasty I had the biscuits and gravy with a side of fruit. My partner had the hangover helper burrito which he said it was filling and tasty. The service was pretty quick, we walked in they handed us the menus and we found our own seats. We were greeted with our server and it was pretty nice very helpful. The place its self is like a little nook on a busy street had a cozy vibe inside. They could do some upgrading possibly provide their staff with some aprons or what not. Good breakfast spot for on the road.

    French toast, salad, veggie sandwich

    We ordered scrambled eggs, French toast, veggie sandwich with some salad. Food took a while to come as they had lot of customers. It was a good breakfast. No complaints.

    I found this spot after a quick Google search for brunch in DTSLO after I inadvertently had the day off from work. I had a donut from another downtown spot that tickled my appetite and wanted a full plate a food to get the energy I needed for the day. Being only a 12 minute walk from the downtown library, I waltzed over here to find a full patio and quaint indoor dining room. I walked up to the counter and was greeted by a young, dirty blonde that asked me what I needed. She quoted me a five minute wait time and directed me to a bench on the patio. . They seated me promptly within my wait time at the first table I saw upon walking up to the diner. A square four top in the corner facing the street. Coupled with some great valley/mountain views I excited to have my first brunch in San Luis. I ordered a mimosa and the California Benedict. I didn't have to order water because my server came with a glass for me already. . I wasn't able to take pictures of my food because I asked my server to charge my phone while I was eating. The presentation of the plate was messy, but the food was scrumptious. The avocado seeped into the English muffin and was the perfect bed for a medium poached egg. It was also smothered in hollandaise sauce and came with home fries. A salt and peppered hair gentleman check in on me while I was eating and complimented my reading choice. I cleaned my plate, read my book, finished my mimosa and enjoyed the epic views. Grand total was $20.55 (pre-tip). This same dish would have easily costed upwards of $30 closer to the town center. I was happy I got to explore and always love a good neighborhood spot. Am excited to bring my best friend here and will be back again!

    Breakfast burrito
    Tiffany N.

    I heard so much about this place in college and finally got to try it - 5 years later! We got their infamous burrito and we all ended with stomachache :( The tortillas were cold, the eggs were cold and nothing about it was warm and inviting. I really wanted to like it by even saving half and microwaving it at home but that didn't work. Not sure if I'll give it another try..

When you add the fantastic service we experienced, the Del Monte Cafe instantly became one of our favorite eateries in San Luis Obispo.

The place looks like a nice small diner, with friendly staff and quick service. The staff were nice and patient to get our orders. However the food was a little disappointing, we ordered the bagel sandwich and the mushroom cheese omelette. The bagel sandwich was very bland, it was like it didn't have any salt or pepper added. The same was true for the omelette. The home fries were more like deep fried potato cubes, which were also very oily.

As college staff taking students on a Central Coast campus tour during spring break, we needed a place for lunch on short notice. When I called, the staff was incredibly helpful and connected me with Caitlin via email. Not only did she respond quickly, but she was also kind, flexible, and truly accommodating throughout the process. From the moment we arrived, everything was handled seamlessly. Organizing a group of our size is no small task, but the team managed it with professionalism, patience, and genuine care. The seating was thoughtfully arranged, service was efficient, and every member of our group felt welcomed and taken care of. The food came out in a timely manner, was well-prepared, and absolutely amazing! It was so nice to see everyone enjoying their meals, and it really added to the overall positive experience. Even when we decided to order dessert at the last minute, the staff remained gracious and accommodating. We are incredibly grateful for the effort and flexibility shown to us. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone--especially those planning group events. Thank you for making our visit such a success!

I would recommend someone with a slightly over average to larger stomach to get a quad instead of a trio and that may satiate you, otherwise if not, this is not the place for you. For people that enjoy eating smaller meals or are indecisive about what to get, I would highly recommend this place! Other than that, though, the place is very clean with a cute slightly rustic modern aesthetic going on and the food is all really good! I got a truffle burger, Mac and cheese with chorizo, and Brussel sprouts with bleu cheese and mushrooms! The menu is a little on the pricier side for what you're getting but always worth a taste and try!

I placed my order on the kiosk, which I found very easy to use. I ordered Smoothie 5 and Panini 6. This came out to $36.97. For the smoothie, I subbed out strawberries (because I'm allergic) and added bananas. I found that to be a really great option that they have at no extra charge. For the panini, I didn't realize they had half and full orders until I got up to the kiosk. I opted for the full order, and then realized once I sat down that I probably would have been better off with the half option. My smoothie arrived at the table at 11:49, whereas my panini arrived at 11:53, so the wait in total was about 15 minutes which is not bad at all for how busy it was. My friends ordered the Greens 5 with prosciutto, Toast 4, Bowl 1, Bowl 6, and everyone agreed that we would definitely come back. One thing that was funny to us is that we felt like the photos on the menu looked smaller than the portions that actually arrived. My friend ordered the Greens and a Bowl thinking it would be small, and she realized very quickly that she was going to need a takeout box for her salad. (This is a good problem to have, rather than the other way around!). The service was also top notch. Even though I ordered on the kiosk, I was still able to interact with the employees, as they frequently came around to ask if they could clear off plates from our table. I also went up to the front to ask for a box, and she kindly directed me to where the boxes were located that I could just grab. Next time, I would definitely mentally prepare myself for how busy it is, but for the quality of ingredients, and the portion size, I think it is great and would definitely come back.

On to the second night, I got the tri-tip and subbed the potatoes for sweet potato purée. I have to say, the sweet potatoes and slaw were amazing. The tri-tip on the other hand was lackluster. It was tough, rubbery, hard to cut and chew. The server was amazing and swapped that out for the burger which again was great.
