I love coming here! This was my second time here. The first time, I'd been getting my tires changed at the tire place nearby and happened upon the cafe while looking for a place to hang out. This time, my siblings and I were looking for a place for brunch. By the time we got there I wasn't feeling well (I get motion sickness and had been in the back seat of the car) so I was stealing small bites from their plates. My brother got the French toast and my sister got the waffles. Both were AMAZING. The waffles were crispy on the outside and soft inside, and buttery all the way through. The French toast was genuinely some of the best French toast I've ever had. This place is definitely a hidden gem and I cant wait to go back.

Nice place. There is indoor and outdoor seating. I tried chicken pesto sandwich with fries. It was very good. They do not have internet. Did not ask if they have bathrooms. Service was good. Plenty of parking around the shop.

Rooster Cafe is an absolute gem! This cozy little spot is always bustling with happy customers, and it's easy to see why. Their breakfast and lunch offerings are simply unbeatable. I especially love their short stack pancakes--they're fluffy, delicious, and the perfect way to start your day. The Portuguese sausages are a must-try, adding a flavorful twist to any meal. And don't even get me started on their breakfast burritos--they're packed with goodness and are so satisfying. I often find myself at Rooster Cafe whenever I take my car to the auto shop next door. It's the perfect way to make the most of my wait time. The friendly staff, welcoming atmosphere, and mouth-watering food make every visit a delightful experience. If you haven't been to Rooster Cafe yet, you're seriously missing out!

1. The breakfast sandwich had thick meats and nicely cooked eggs! The Portuguese scramble looked simple yet it brought the delicious comfort! 2. The spot had chill casual vibes! 3. The staff were friendly and timely with our order! 4. There are indoor and outdoor tables! 5. Parking lot is small, but there are street parking! Note: I did not see any restrooms!

While in CA recently I stumbled across this gem when searching for nearby breakfast spots and YELP did not disappoint in directing me to it! You order upfront and your food is delivered to you via a number wherever you choose to sit. Service was extremely fast and the staff was attentive and very nice. The food was excellent and the pricing was great considering portion and quality. They also have outdoor seating so you can enjoy the Cali sun while enjoying your meal! Definitely would recommend and will revisit next time in OC!

Came here on a Sunday for brunch around noon. It was busy but good flow of customers leaving and dining in so there was always an open table. You order at the cashier and then sit down. My husband got their breakfast burrito and enjoyed it. It was smaller than we thought but still filling and delicious. I got the chicken Parmesan sandwich with fries and it was SO SO GOOD. We waited probably 20-25 mins total for my dish to come out. My husband's burrito came out probably 15 mins after we ordered and mine took some time (I think they forgot honestly) but the employees were kind and would check on it for us. Even thought there was a delay, the sandwich was amazing and worth waiting. Pricing for the sandwich was pretty fair given the quality and quantity. The burrito was good but we felt it was overpriced since it was small compared to other restaurants who charge the same. They have a few tables outside to eat and the parking lot is kinda small but since most people do togo there's usually a spot or two open.

This little breakfast spot is a hidden gem...literally. The Rooster is tucked away in a shopping center next to a barber shop. The portions are large, and everything was delicious. My husband and I were in the mood for waffles so we both ordered the St.Clair Waffle combo. The waffle was HUGE but the best part was the Portuguese sausage. They are only open until 2pm, so make sure you get there early. It gets very crowded. BONUS: They source 96% of their ingredients from local farmers markets.

YUM! This is one of my favorite places to grab breakfast in the area. Very affordable and the service was amazing. You can tell this is a place that people in the area feel welcomed in. Great coffee and the food added warmth in my heart. TRY IT OUT!! For more reviews follow me here or on instagram @audrey.pulliam

Food and service were both great. We were there for breakfast and really enjoyed the meal - especially the bacon. I had to go to the counter to get a coffee refill but no biggy. Food was plated and delivered quickly. Coffee, OJ, and milk were all filled to the top! They have outside seating in case you want to eat "plein air".

My wife loved the breakfast tacos! I got my usual French Toast combo with Portuguese Sausage and Egg Overeasy. It was great as usual.
