I live in Corona del Mar and this is one of the "locals" hang-outs, so you know that you are in the right spot if you are travelling from out of town. They serve a nice, traditional breakfast, great lunch and dinner. Cuisine is Mediterranean-meaning chicken and filet kebobs, moussaka (sp!), delicious green salads with feta and olives, vegetable soup--a... More

My family and I visit frequently for breakfast. They have the best coffee & orange juice. We prefer to sit outside on their patio.
