This is an excellent breakfast/lunch spot in Long Beach. Very popular, and deservedly so! I had fresh strawberry pancakes as part of a combination breakfast with eggs and sausage. The pancakes were light and perfectly cooked, with crispy edges and a fluffy soft center. The pancakes were topped with a large helping of strawberries and the optional whipped cream. The berries were delicious, and sweet enough so the maple syrup could be used sparingly. The sausages were of good quality, and the eggs (I had mine over medium) were as ordered.
I bring my family here every Sunday. Above and beyond in quality and service at a great price. Really they still serve a delicious breakfast for $10. The pancake batter is something else, it has a unique taste, even after it gets cold it's soft and delicious.
One of my favorite breakfast spots in town. This place gets pretty busy in the morning/lunch time. I've been coming here for years. The seasoned hash browns are my favorite. Quality food and service.
My brother took us here this weekend and wow. This was the best American breakfast food I’ve had in a while! The pancakes were fluffy and flavorful. I loved that the veggie omelette had a creamy avocado in it. The blueberry muffin was perfectly moist on the inside, crisp on the outside. It had a home-y, friendly diner atmosphere and our waiter was great! Would recommend 100%. Can’t wait to eat here again when we’re in town.
Very nice place to have breakfast, the place is super clean with an old fashion look and feel.The servers are very attentive and the food is top notch.I will be back and bring back more people with me.The hash browns and cut larger than traditional hash browns and very good.
Oftentimes you read a great review of a restaurant and you think well maybe. Well let me tell you, all of the great reviews are true. My experience was outstanding on every level. It was highly busy on a Friday mid morning. The wait was not overly long, but well managed. The location is beautiful, and packed with a kind of elegant chaotic feel. But the food, my goodness every bit of the food was perfect, coffee was great, omelet was great, potatoes were great, but let me tell you the muffin was simply the best muffin I've ever had in my life. If you're In this area, you must go, but plan for the wait, but know, it is worth it.
One of those places I can't say enough about. And I kinda don't want to, cuz it's already crazy busy. I'm glad they did well during the pandemic. Food, drinks, baked goods, staff, layout, design, bathrooms; all of it is done very well.Currently no outdoor seating.Only thing that has been subpar is the fruit salad option w/ the quiche. It's mostly apples n oranges, n not terribly tasty at that. The quiche itself was flaky, balanced, flavorful, and a good portion.When they say banana pancakes, they mean BANANAS. Not 4 meager slices. You know it's all good when no one wants to share their meal.All the muffins are downright fun in flavor, and of the soft fluffy variety rather then oily and dense. Lemonade is from scratch, which makes for great arnold palmers
I freaking love this place. I've been coming here for YEARS - not as often as I would like, but still, taking into account that I live in Anaheim that's something. I always get the 1/2 sandwich, 1/2 salad + dessert special. And it's always with the half turkey (that cranberry sauce tho). The desserts are always hard to pick! But I've tried their coconut pineapple cake (amazing), carrot cake (also really good - very dense tho), raspberry peach pie, and German apple cake. I've never been disappointed.I recently went on a Saturday at around 11:30am, and it was unsurprisingly pretty busy. We waited about 20-30min for a party of 3.To add, their servers have always been really friendly and attentive.
Delicious French dip sandwich. Amazing baked goods.
Family owned and operated since 1965 Jongewaard's Bake n’ Broil is as close as it gets to “iconic” in Long Beach, many of Carol Jongewaard’s recipes even now in use across a menu featuring Comfort Food still sold at a reasonable price.Brought to Atlantic Avenue by Carol and husband Roger, their children still in charge and Restaurant staff partially unchanged for three decades, guests arriving at Bake n’ Broil begin by putting their names on a waitlist, tables available within twenty minutes for most while others whiz in and out for Pastries available at the counter.Open from 8:00am until 3:00pm daily, most of the savories unavailable until 11:00am, Coffee should be a pass for all but those willing to tolerate acrid drip while menu-advertised Skim Milk was apparently unavailable at 8:45 on a Saturday.Known primarily as a Bakery, specials joining the daily offerings based on season, it was after a quick stop in the Microwave that two Muffins and a Cinnamon Roll were delivered, each with a ball of chilled Butter that proves necessary for moistening both of the former and all but the center of a glazed spiral.Less sweet than usual across Carrot Cake as well as Pecan Pie, though in the case of the latter an inspired choice that ranks amongst the best of its kind, Quiche falls short due to insipid Crust plus a laughable side of flavorless Fruit while “Banana Walnut Pancakes” incorporate neither into the Batter and tries to sell Artificial Maple Syrup as acceptable by placing alongside a mountain of Whip.
