    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

Not great but not bad. The granddaughter loved her meal. She ate over half of the hamburger (pretty good for her age). She ate all of her fries and part of mine. The portions on the Kid's meal were generous. The added bonus were the two lollipops that came with. This meal was in a kid friendly paper bag. The price was a bit up there but that's pretty much standard at most burger places.

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.

I liked that they offered flavored creamer for your coffee in addition to regular cream. And their coffee was good. Everyone was nice. We were greeted when we walked in and were seated right away. Our food came out pretty quickly. The first impression of our dishes was kind of a "hot mess". The food was just thrown onto the plate - especially my husband's. He had the Louisiana hot links with egg, hash browns and biscuits. I personally would suggest you ask for the biscuit and gravy on the side - otherwise it will just be at the bottom of your other food. I kinda like a little effort when it comes to presentation. But don't get me wrong, the food tasted good. I had the corned beef hash and eggs which was good - the hash looked to be made in-house. It was good - but to be honest, I actually prefer the old school corned beef hash from a can, that's toasted on the grill. And as for the vibe of the restaurant, it's not real homey. Kinda feels like a diner you would come across while on a road trip. This really isn't my style of a breakfast diner, but it's pretty popular- there were a lot of families enjoying themselves, so maybe give a try and see if it's for you.

Pulling into the parking lot, I knew this was a very well loved restaurant because the lot was packed ~ and it's a pretty good sized lot! Walking up to the door, it's pretty obvious, in a good way, that it's an establishment that's been around for a while. With bustling deli and pastry cases near the entrance, Benjie's instantly gives off a Cheers vibe, even for this first timer. There's a counter to sit at if you're dining solo, or if you've got more people in your party there are plenty of traditional booths and tables. The menu is extensive with all of the traditional deli/diner favorites. In order to try more, we decided to split everything. We ordered Reuben Fritters as a starter, a Pastrami sandwich on a French roll, and cheese blintzes for dessert. The Reuben Fritters were a nice take on the sandwich with a mixture of tender corned beef and the perfect amount of cheeses and sauerkraut rolled in bread crumbs and fried to perfection. The pastrami sandwich was piled high with meat and served with a side of onion rings. We were already getting full at this point, but we couldn't resist the cheese blintzes that were patiently waiting for us to give them a try. I swear I don't live under a rock, but I've never had blintzes before and these were VERY good! We went with the traditional preparation, although I read someone's review that said these could also be requested fried. Definitely worth a try next time. I'm imagining pure decadence! Our server was friendly and kept on top of keeping our beverages filled and checking to see if we needed anything. We left filled with excellent comfort food and an overall great experience. Looking forward to trying some more things on the menu soon!

You can tell they've been around for a long time in the best way. It has that classic deli feel with a mix of diner, café, and old school market vibes. Service was friendly and helpful, even during the lunch rush. We went around 1 PM on a Thursday, so it was definitely busy, but the wait felt expected and worth it. Portion wise, they do not hold back. You really get a bang for your buck here. The smoked fish platter was the highlight for me. I genuinely loved everything on it. It's perfect for sharing (or for leftovers ). It almost feels like a DIY bagel experience you get to mix and match different toppings and flavors, which I'm obsessed with. Also... I tried an egg bagel for the first time and it lowkey changed my life. They make their bagels in house and sell them by the half dozen but they do sell out. By the time we finished eating, they were already out, so if you want some to take home, grab them as soon as you walk in. The Benjie Special was solid super flavorful and packed with a generous amount of pastrami. It did lean a bit greasy for our taste, but that really just comes down to personal preference. They also offer a variety of cold deli items by the pound, which adds to that classic New York-style deli experience. Overall: A cozy, old school deli with generous portions, quality food, and that nostalgic mom and pop charm. Definitely a spot we'd come back to.
