Diner booths and airplane decor
Richie U.

Victory Diner is located off Main St and W Culver Ave in Orange within walking distance of CHOC - Orange and St. Joseph's Hospital. Looks like a WWII themed diner with a really cool model airplane hanging from the ceiling, model ship, and old warplane pictures on the upper sun room windows. They serve up a combo of American and mexican food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The diner's clean and the staff is friendly with smiles. You can order from a kiosk, at the counter, or drive-thru. They have a couple banks of soda fountains with Coke products and Pibb Xtra as well as a couple sets each of regular and decaf coffee. The breakfast burrito was good size and tasted good too. Didn't take very long for it to be made and was delivered right to my table. Looking at others food being delivered, the portion sizes seem to be on the medium to larger side, they don't skimp here. Lastly, my final observations, they still have covid glass still up between tables which I'm assuming are for germs and stuff, but they allowed a street vendor to go from table to table trying to sell stuff, putting her bag and merch on customers tables . Also, the staff seemed to know her since they were talking to her and allowed it. Just an observation during my visit, that's all. All in all, foods good, oh and it's very reasonable too!!

You know it's a chill place with them letting us walk through the drive through

Giving them a big shout out. We needed something open late after 2 AM. One of the few things you can find around and the menu that's crazy. You could order everything for breakfast to hotdog to burgers fries whatever your heart's feeling you can order. Guy took care of us even helped us customize our drinks. We thought the dining room was open, but it wasn't. So we walked around to the menu at the drive-through to look at it and he offered us to go ahead and walk on through instead of having to pull our car up. Grabbed a breakfast burrito with bacon. Loved it maybe this salsa would be my one down point. My friends picked up French toast, which they said was excellent and her hot dog for a good mix which they also enjoyed.

Lettuce was wet & dripping all over. I've driven by this place for years. Thought I'd give it a try but I will NEVER go back

Disgusting! Soaking wet lettuce & tasted gross. I will NEVER come back. I've driven by this place for years & thought I'd give it a try. Gross!!

Egg sandwich with sausage.

Service was good, very busy place and crowded. It took a while for us to find a table. But the lady cleaning was super nice and as soon as she found a bigger table to accommodate me and my two kids. She asked us to sit down. I don't remember her name but very nice person. The breakfast burritos were big, my breakfast sandwich with sausage was OK. I thought they used patties, but it was sliced up links with lettuce and tomato and mayonnaise. Not bad. I would definitely try something else. Next time I go.

This is delicious!

This is your basic independent Burger joint with a little bit more flair. They have all-day breakfast, burgers, sandwiches, Mexican food as well as dinner platters. The unique thing about victory diner is it is in an airplane motif. Lots of pictures on the wall from world war II of old bomber planes and fighter planes as well as various heroic aviation pilots of that generation. They also have a huge fighter plane dangling from the ceiling so that's cool. I went with the gyro platter, which was massive and good. They bring you out a side salad which is big enough for two people. Tomatoes, cucumbers, cheese croutons okay all good. Then comes the platter with fries, some onion rings and then a hearty and delicious gyro. The onion rings have definite potential. I think these had been sitting around so it had gotten a little soggy, but the crust was of the proper consistency. Good fries and delicious food. I will be back when I'm in the area.

Great variety on the menu and good quality on the food. Online ordering went smoothly but a bit hard to find on the website. Pickup was smooth and the food was hot and ready on time.

Chicken Tenders & Fries
Gabriel M.

We got chicken tenders and fries, and clam chowder. I can definitely say they were delicious for their price but the fries threw me off . Nevertheless, I will be back for the clam chowder and tenders because it hit! The service was amazing and attentive but didn't see the inside as we ate in the car because it was a late night haha.

Well what a disappointment experience with this dinner. Got some food for me and my family order 3 items and they miss one. I guess no 8 dollar cheese burger for my mom. Then I call and let them know they forgot to add the cheese burger and instead of saying I'm sorry let me try to fix it some way. They just told me keep the recipe and bring it next time so we can give it to you. FYI no with no recipe they won't help. Last time I will come here.

So Good

For the price, they give you a good amount of food. I got the egg scramble with ham and cheddar cheese.

My husband got a breakfast burrito in which he forgot sometimes he isn't a fan of them because they overload with potatoes, but he said he really enjoyed this one. Considering I'm also pregnant in my first trimester, I was so glad they had milk to help with my calcium intake. All in all, I would definitely come back here given the chance. (I'm from the Bay Area in Northern California so visiting regularly isn't quite feasible.)

Three words: Gluten free pancakes!!! When was the last time you GF-ers had those, hmm?…read more The volume of food choices on their menu is immense. Every time I go here, there's a crowd and I am not surprised, this is the go-to breakfast spot in the Orange area. However, despite the crowd, we always get in reasonably quickly.

It's a great spot for breakfast or brunch, and the staff made the visit even better with their attentive and friendly service. The food was fresh, hearty, and very tasty. I ordered their stuffed French toast, giant pancakes, and got the chicken fried steak and eggs for my husband. The pancakes were fluffy and huge and good. The chicken fried steak was a bit dry as it was overcooked. He was so hungry that I didn't have a chance to grab a photo before he inhaled his meal. At this place, the portions were generous so we both had lots of leftovers to take home. Only downside was our waiter. She was busy but kept forgetting to refill our coffee and water. In addition, I had to ask for clean silverware but the second set was also dirty. Had to wait for clean ones and by the time I got them my food wasn't hot and was warm instead. Parking was convenient since the restaurant has its own parking area along with additional nearby shopping center parking. Overall, Flappy Jack's in Orange is a great local breakfast spot with tasty comfort food, and large portions.

But here, they had multiple alternative dairy options! I even was able to get an oat milk latte! I will definitely be back. Love this place and am so glad they opened up this location.

Service was friendly and quick. Restrooms are available inside. Hot lattes were delicious but more so "WARM LATTES" and not actually HOT /: which was disappointing but the flavor was good. We got the coffee flight: Pistachio, Chocolate, & Horchata. Food was good but it lacked seasoning - i definitely had to add quite a bit of salt and hot sauce to enjoy it. I would probably go somewhere else if I wanted eggs Benedict. We ordered the Birria eggs Benedict and the chilaquiles. It was good but nothing exciting, I would order something else next time or go to a different breakfast spot. But overall, I left happy but not full.
