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. read more

Came here for the first time for breakfast before heading out of town. We ordered their steak & eggs & veggie omelette. Food came out quick despite the busy ambiance. This place is decked out in airplane aesthetics. Pretty cool place for airplane fans! Food portions were generous. Would rate their food 4/5 for the taste and mostly for portion size. read more

Ok- it's a diner- but still.. First of all, The girl at the counter is one of the most friendly, sweet and bubbly personalities you will ever meet- I didn't realize they would bring the food out to me until she gave me one of those little numbered stands to put on the table- When she gave me that, I asked her to add five bucks to the total for the tip- she told me they don't have that option- but that I shouldn't worry about it since I was already here- so sweet! Make sure to bring cash for the tip! Everyone here is awesome... They obviously know and appreciate their regulars too- which makes me want to become one! Also less than fifteen bucks for a huge omelette breakfast! And the food is fantastic- place is spotless as well- I'll be back... often! read more

Victory Diner is the type of restaurant I like most. Family owned and operated. Classic Americana diner vibe, right down to the red, white and stainless steel colors and motif. Their menu offers loads of traditional diner fare for breakfast, lunch and dinner. All that happily alongside many traditional Mexican dishes. I don't eat deep fried foods much anymore, but when I do, I'm expecting loads of crunch. Victory Diner delivers every time I order onion rings or French fries. Not greasy but CRUNCHY, Baby! So next time you're near Santa Ana's Main Place Mall, skip the corporate food joints and enjoy Victory Diner. You'll be warmly greeted in English or Spanish by happy, smiley faces! Add great food and fare prices and Victory Diner offers a great deal! read more

My wife found this spot when she had to be at CHOC hospital with our daughter due to her kidney issue. We normally go eat the DUI fries, which are the BOMB. The burgers are pretty good too along with the chili cheese fries and patty melt. The DUI fries come with either Pastrami or Carne Asada on the top or you can have them with both, and they don't skimp on the meat either, they are loaded. It is 24 Hour joint so hit'em up. read more

Victory is a classic. People are friendly. Wide selection to choose from. Prices are fantastic ($5-$15), especially these days. Quality is what you expect from a diner - not the best, but gets the job done! My favorites are the ham steak breakfast plate & the club sandwhich special. Cobb salad is a solid contender, good portion and still healthy if you're trying to eat light (no dressing needed). For what it is, would recommend giving Victory a try. read more

Our first time visiting. We went at 11:30 on Saturday and it was pretty busy but the lady bussing the tables was really watching out for the incoming customers by letting them know where the open tables were. Very friendly young lady took our order. We got a turkey burger / fries and double cheeseburger/ fries. The fries were golden and hot. PERFECT. My turkey burger lacked a lot of flavor/ seasoning but I ate the whole thing as I was really hungry so it wasn't bad :) Again, the fries and service were perfect.

I already made a review but I do want to rate the veggie burger which is why I'm getting on. Yelp. I go to almost every place which has veggie burgers in the City of Orange and ask if they have veggie burgers and if they do then I order it - and then I made a ranking to myself on a pad of paper. Recently, I went into an establishment call Bosscat, and the young lady there asked me if I did my ranking on yelp, and then that gave me the idea to start putting it here. The victory burger veggie burger here at victory diner I rank 8 out of 10. But to be honest, everything I get here has been exceptional. I used to go there every week. And in the first years I would get pancakes, but later I would get the veggie omelet and a veggie burger. I used to go across the street after ordering pancake to the carl's junior on Stewart and Main and get there veggie burger, but they have since discontinued it As for victory diner, everything is good here.I completely suggest and recommend victory diner. I liked it more when Mary worked there.Because she was very nice. She retired over a year ago. My real name is Mark and that's who she would have known me as. read more

The small garden salad was equally underwhelming, consisting of only romaine lettuce and cherry tomatoes with no dressing or even a drizzle of olive oil.

If you come on a weekday, it actually was still pretty busy, but only a short 10 minute wait. Got the Milo and Ube cold brew for our drinks. Definitely recommend the Milo cold brew, reminds me of a mocha. For our food, we got the iloco moco, tapsilog, and Ube tres leches French toast. LOVE the tapsilog which was basically beef tapa, tomato salad, and egg on top of rice. It was so good, especially with the magi seasoning and their version of spiced vinegar provided on the table. Their French toast was also delicious, though I wish they provided more fruit. The first time I came here I ordered the Adobo Fried Rice Omelet which was alright, I felt the tapsilog had more flavor. The inside is pretty small and tight, but they are stroller friendly and accommodated the stroller. Also there is music playing and the ambiance is loud (people talking) so I didn't feel overwhelmed if my baby was crying. Definitely plan on coming here again for Filipino brunch food.

This SoCal gem is a must-visit, especially if you love variety, value, and convenience. The menu is incredibly diverse, offering delicious options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Early in the morning, you can enjoy pancakes, omelets, or breakfast burritos. Lunch brings fresh salads, hearty sandwiches, and juicy burgers. Dinner offers even more options, from comforting foods to grilled entrees and classic favorites. No matter what time of day you visit, the menu has something to satisfy any craving. One of the best things about this spot is the price--everything is unbelievably affordable, especially considering the huge portion sizes. You get so much food for so little, which makes it a great option for families, friends, or anyone looking for a satisfying meal without breaking the bank. Another huge perk is that it's open 24 hours a day, which is perfect for night owls, early risers, or anyone with an unpredictable schedule. The only minor drawback is that the dining room isn't open until 5 a.m., but the drive-thru is always available, so you can enjoy your favorites anytime. I've been here countless times, and the food is consistently delicious, the service is fast and friendly, and the overall experience is unbeatable. If you're looking for a place that offers variety, amazing value, and 24-hour accessibility, this SoCal gem truly delivers. read more

I've been meaning to write a review for this place for a while now, and I'm so glad I finally took the time to do it. From the moment I walked in, I knew I was in for a great experience. The customer service at is truly second to none. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and always goes above and beyond to make sure you feel like a valued guest. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, they make you feel at home. Now, let's talk about the food--absolutely amazing! The burgers are hands down some of the best I've ever had. The patties are juicy, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The variety of toppings and sides makes each visit an exciting experience, and everything is served fresh and hot. Whether you're in the mood for a classic cheeseburger or something a little more adventurous, they've got you covered. Every time I visit, I'm blown away by the combination of great food and top-notch service. If you're craving a delicious burger and want to be treated with the utmost care, this place is a must-try! Highly recommend! I can't wait to come back again ! read more

Victory Diner is a place I go to every week. I order 4 pancakes once a week, and Mary has become a friend of mine. She works there and she is one of the nicest people I have met, and her son Daniel works there also and recently I have talked to him, and he is a nice young man. The people are so nice, and it does make a big difference. The service and people are obviously great, and so is the food.. So I will keep coming here and I recommend it. What stands out the most are employees like I said, Mary and her son Daniel who go the extra mile to be polite and courteous. As for the food, the pancakes are big and I love them. I have also had the double veggie burger and the veggie omelette before, and it is all good.. I recommend Victory Diner for anyone... Take care. Mark. read more

Victory Diner is one of my favorite places to grab food. Most of the times I've been here, I've gotten the DUI Fries (chili cheese fries with asada&pastrami) with a twist. I'm allergic to cheese so I opt for beans and avocados instead and I gotta tell you it's out of this world!! The foods always fresh and service is great. The diner also closes at 10, but drive thru is open 24 hours (you heard that right) which is perfect for night owls like me. Shout out to the friendly lady that always works at night. You rock! Get the chocolate shake, you won't regret it** read more

This was my first time visiting, and I have to say, the experience was underwhelming. The parking situation was a bit chaotic, which set the tone. The burger was decent--better than fast food, but honestly, that's not a high bar to clear. The fries, however, were disappointing. What really left a bad taste in my mouth, though, was the blatant disregard for proper flag etiquette. For a place that seems to lean heavily on patriotic themes to draw people in, it's disheartening to see such a lack of respect for the flag. It all felt gimmicky rather than genuine. read more

And the pancakes which I order every week are exceptional also so in both ways the service and the food is it's the best And I did have the veggie burger one time and it was good also so everything here is good thank you read more

They buy one get one free comes in so clutch when all you have is a few bucks and you want a big burger maybe I have to share with somebody. This is a spot to go to get a big burger and share with somebody and have a good time fries are a little expensive about five bucks but if you got it to spare, you can share the fries as well and have a two person meal for less than $12 definitely a part to go to. read more

A dinner atmosphere with helpful workers. Even though they were busy, they were helpful in ordering. You order at the counter, and they bring you food to the table quickly and warm. The plate size is very generous, and the prices feel like inflation isn't a thing. I will be eating here again, often. read more

I can't speak to the breakfast part yet, but the double chili cheeseburger dinner I had was worthy of coming back for. When it comes to chili cheeseburgers I always look for the same few things. A good base burger to build upon and a unique chili with a homemade feel to it. One doesn't work without the other. The basic double cheeseburger here was great. I'm almost tempted to get a patty melt next time because I trust the baseline patty will be just as good in that. And the chili didn't taste like the generic Sysco-leaning store-bought brand. It tastes like someone had took some time making it. I could be wrong, but it added a nice original taste profile to the whole burger. The service here couldn't have been nicer. Whether from the ordering process, to dropping off the food itself, to the request for refills--everyone was so courteous and friendly. It's the type of operation that you can tell appreciates its loyal customers. I like the ambiance too. There are several tables and counter space spread over an extensive dining area. I especially liked the layout as it wasn't just the same set of booths repeated; it had a variety of table counts and booth counts next to each other. I can see how different parties relieved that there is a way to seat everyone without any awkward dividing up everyone. It was also relatively quiet and relaxing inside. All in all, this is a great place with great eats. I can't wait to give the breakfast a whirl to seal its place in my rotation.

I ordered two menudos, and at first I honestly thought there had been a mistake because there was so little meat in both orders. I called the restaurant to ask if something had been prepared incorrectly, and I was told that it was not a mistake. According to the employee, the cooks were told that this is a new policy from the owners to serve smaller portions of meat. I was also told that the portion is even smaller if you ask for it without pata--which, seriously, not everyone likes pata. I completely understand that food costs have gone up and that restaurants have expenses, but charging customers nearly $18 while significantly reducing the amount of meat and giving them mostly broth feels extremely unfair. To me, this is essentially taking advantage of the customer. If the price stays the same while the portion of the actual food is reduced this much, it feels like customers are paying more for less so the business can save money. I'm not expecting an enormous amount of meat, but I do expect a reasonable portion for what I'm paying. There's a difference between managing rising costs and making customers feel like they're being shortchanged. I hope the owners reconsider this policy because, at these prices, customers deserve better. At the end of the day, customers are the reason businesses stay open. Without customers supporting a business, there wouldn't be a business to run, so treating customers fairly and giving them what they're paying for should always matter.
