They really do have the "Best Breakfast in Town"!! My mom is a regular at Cowboy Surfer Grill and brought me here. Food was stellar, the restaurant is very cozy and clean, and the servers were great (with the exception of Katrina, she’s not that nice).
Food: Five Stars. Huge portions, low prices. Waffles were great. The omelets are good. Bacon is thick and tasty (I liked that the bacon wasn't overly salty). Food comes out nice and hot. Nice presentation as well; they serve with colorful, cute plates.
Service: We had Steven as our server and he is such a sweet, charming guy! What a nice, friendly guy. He's fantastic. Steven took our orders, but our food was brought out by Katrina. We had ordered a waffle and it came without syrup. I told Katrina that "We're missing syrup" in a nice, normal, smiling way, and she said "ok" and brought syrup over. We did not have spreads either for the toast, and my Mom asked for some spreads when Katrina brought the syrup over. Katrina then says "OK, ANYTHING ELSE?" with SO much attitude. Are we being "demanding" by asking for syrup for the waffle and jam for the toast? The syrup and jam should have come with the food anyway; there is really no reason for Katrina to get worked up and show attitude... It's interesting that Katrina would work as a server when she seems to get pissed off with such minor requests. She must hate working at a restaurant.
I highly recommend that you visit the place for breakfast or brunch (they're open until 3pm daily). And I hope you get Steven as your server! (Hopefully you don't have to...
Read moreWe live in Chino and went to run some errands in Corona last Saturday. I researched brunch restaurants and when I saw this place had 4.5 stars on Yelp... I knew we had to try it as few restaurants have that rating on Yelp!
This place did not disappoint. There's a great vibe as soon as you walk in, cute, casual surfer beach décor, everyone is friendly, they call repeat customers by name, they share the tables waited and EVERY single person who stopped by to offer coffee, take our order, etc... was great. It's one of the those places you want to go back to because you fell welcomed,
We had sandwiches and they were delicious! The Philly Cheesesteak and their Croissant BLT were really good. Their potatoes are delish, they're like little discs but not chips - with great seasoning!
At one point the owner stopped by and was so upbeat and friendly...His wife (so I think) stopped by as well just to offer special taco sauce for my husband's Philly and made great conversation, as if she knew us for a long time. These are the kinds of gems customers look for to enjoy a meal and be in a great environment. Despite the 20-25 minute ride, we will...
Read moreI don't live in Corona. I just happened to stop by here from OC for a lunch date, but I might consider moving out here now or making that drive on the 91 more often to eat here. This place is simply one of the best lunches places I have ever been to. I literally don't have a single complaint, which has never happened before.
I tried the Surf Dude sandwich and it AMAZING. Ham-steak and bacon?? With avocado and 2 types of melted cheese? Are you kidding me? Phenomenal! It was cooked to perfection. The bacon had the perfect amount of chewiness, the avocado had the perfect amount of ripeness. I got the Crisscut Sweet Potato Fries as the side and I never thought I'd find the perfect sweet potato fry before, but now I have at the Cowboy Surfer Grill.
This place isn't a known tourist attraction, but it should be. It's a local gem with outstanding service. The owners came out and greeted us. They are working just as hard as the rest of the staff.
The Surf Dude was epic and filling. Everything else I read on the menu (or saw others trying) looked the same, so I am extremely eager to return here many many times and try everything else...
