Fantastic Cafe — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Fantastic Cafe is greta because they offer a lot of options for a good price. Everything since civid is so much more expensive but Fantastic Cafe is keeping it real. I will be going back for sure. They have coffee as do most diners but they also offer Café De Olla. I didn't know what it was but I put it in my cup and it was DELICIOUS. So I would recommend trying that. I decided to go with Porkchops and scrambled eggs. Everything was fresh. My breakfast came with hash brown type potatoes cut thin and I asked for extra crispy. Well done. The top layer was ok but they were not done enough for me. I usually stay away from potatoes as I am on keto so it actually kept me from totally blowing that. Normally I sub tomato slices. My friend loved the potatoes so that was good. The eggs were the best scrambled eggs I've had in ages. I ate a corn tortilla and I'm telling you there is something special about those too. So so yummy. I sliced up the pork chop and stuffed that little tortilla with egg and chop and a dash of butter and salt and man I was HAPPY. The rest I just savored without more tortilla. KETO 🤪 The amount of food is crazy. I just hiked a bunch of miles so I was hungry. But I could no way finish that breakfast. I took home porkchop and tortilla. Left a ton of potatoes even though I ate some. BIG PORTIONS. I am adding pics. You order from the counter and they bring it to your table. Indoor seating. Masks required to enter and order and you can remove them at your table. The place is clean and booth seating. My friend got a hamburger and onion rings. Kind of annoyed me as I had to try a couple of those and they were good bit I couldn't have more than 2 little ones. Go and enjoy some home cooked fresh food and good prices. Please tip them well as they are keeping it...

This is the kind of place that’s been doing things the same way for decades. Run proudly by a family with deep Mexican heritage, this small diner has mastered the art of the no-fuss, all-flavor, all-American breakfast, brunch, and lunch- with just the right amount of south-of-the-border warmth woven in.

I was brought here intentionally for breakfast by someone who had eaten here before but couldn’t quite remember when - was it this century or sometime in the 1900s? Either way, it was clear that this spot is rooted in tradition, routine, and real hospitality. There’s no colorful menu of trendy shakes or hyper-personalized orders; instead, the focus is on hearty plates, prepared quickly, served with confidence, and appreciated by people who know exactly what they came for.

The hash browns are golden and a bit greasy in the best way, and the eggs are cooked with zero drama. Orange juice is served straight from a plastic bottle, no glass. The staff is experienced, friendly, and efficient, walking the floor and the counter like they’ve been part of the café’s rhythm since day one.

Around the room, there’s a quiet joy. Patrons smile as they sit down and leave looking just as content - satisfied not only by the food, but by the reliability of a place that feels like home without trying too hard.

This is a family-run, old-fashioned diner that delivers everything a good café should: consistency, comfort, and a warm, grounded energy. A truly happy place, where pride and simplicity go...

In our most recent experiences with this fantastic Cafe location, the food has not been very good, but the last time I went to this location was the worst experience. I ordered a chicken burrito and the chicken was dry and tasted not fresh. When I politely told the fantastic Cafe workers to remake the burrito but this time with carne asada, a cashier named Adriana got upset and was rude. The reason I decided for the remade burrito to have carne asada is because I assumed that it would taste better and that the carne asada would be fresh. The fantastic Cafe workers remade the burrito but it was worse because the carne asada was dry, flavorless, hard to chew and not fresh. I spoke to the manager about this situation that even the carne asada on the remade burrito tasted bad and not fresh and he told me that this was the first time anyone had mentioned the carne asada was not fresh. By reading several reviews of this fantastic Cafe location, some reviews mention about rude employees and that when something isn't good about the food, the manager acts dumb by saying that they never have any problems because they never make any mistakes. This means that the manager isn't honest with his costumers. Based on some reviews of this fantastic Cafe location, I'm not the only one who's had a bad experience with the food and...
