The Night and Day Café leaves me in awe. The food is seriously awesome. I love their french toast, in my opinion it is better than homemade. Their portions are generous too. The reason Im giving this place only two stars is because the service is seriously awful. While the chef is doing so much at one time it looks like hes the flash, the servers are the opposite. They move in slow motion and they never come check on you. My coffee wasnt refilled at all and my fiance only got his refilled after stopping a server and asking for it. When youre paying $2.25 for a cup of coffee, the refills should be plentiful. In addition, I had my eggs substituted for hash browns and I didnt get my hash browns until the rest of my breakfast was gone. Thats not the cooks fault either - he didnt know. The only reason I got my hash browns at all was because I told the cook - the waitress had disappeared to the back. I feel sort of bad for writing such a bad review, because the food was great and the cook is a serious superhero, but the service is just so bad! The food gets 5 stars, the cook deserves an award, but the service ruins this place for me. Its the second time Ive been with bad service. From now on, I think Im going to be take out only from this place.

The food is actually pretty decent and the portions are large. But....the best food can not make up for the incredibly poor and slow service. My first experience was ordering take-out. We waited at least 10 minutes at the counter before cook came over to see if we needed help. This was after the owner and server passed by us two different times and didnt even acknowledge our presence. To give them the benefit of the doubt, I went a separate time and sat at the bar. It took several minutes before we were even asked if we wanted something to drink and then at least another 20 minutes before the server brought us coffee and water. Our food took another 20 minutes. The cook was hustling and the grill only allows for one cook, that was part of the problem. Even then, three and four plates would pile up waiting to go out, and trust me it wasnt because they were refilling my coffee. Its like the servers are in slow motion. If you want good food and good service go to Claytons.

Been here a few times and the food is good. The only negative side is that they have no AC other than that its very good. If I was the owner I would be very happy with the amazing food created by the cooks. Every time I have gone to this place the cook working is a younger guy that is very knowledgeable on good food. His portions are perfect I say that because I have been to other places that make me feel like I have waisted food but every time I have I ordered from him I feel food is not waisted. My family loves the food and I would recommend finding this Gem. If you go during day it can get packed but the wait goes by fast. Also idk if they updated the menu on line but it doesnt seem to show up.

I ordered a quesadilla with sour cream and guacamole, but the waitress didnt seem to listen very well even when I said it loud and clear. I assumed it was with sour cream and guac so I walked out and took a few bites and didnt taste anything else but cheese. I walked back to tell them I asked for the one with sour cream and guac and they tried to charge me for it when I specifically asked for it. As the cook is giving me a side of sour cream and guac, the waitress whispers in the cooks ear as if Im not there. I thought it was so rude, plus the place is so cramped and hot. Its hard to talk or feel comfortable in there. Would not go back.

Local Gem! My wife and I were vacationing on Coronado Island. We were looking for a place to eat late in the evening. The pizzaria next door was closed. As we stood there deciding where to go, the gentleman next door called us in with, "Come to my place! Ill make anything youd live!" He proved true to his word; and we loved the place! My wife got the best grilled cheese sandwich; and I got the Nebraskan meat wrap that tasted like something my grandma used to make me when I was growing up in southern Ukraine - ground beef with onions wrapped in a thin pizza dough. AWESOME PLACE!

Night and Day has incredible breakfasts - but come if youre hung over, not if youre in a hurry. There is only one cook working on everyones meals but its definitely worth the wait. Only about 15 total people fit in the place (10 sitting on stools watching him cook) so its a cool experience and you get to know the people around you. You cant go there very often or youd probably have a heart attack due to the amount of butter they use, but you cant afford to miss their hash-browns.

The food is great, had the carne asada fries. However the service is horrible, the guy managing the orders was rude and lacked on big time on customer service skills. Almost felt like the service a bar tender gives you when the bar is super busy, which it was not the case here since it was not busy (just a few other guest) and well, this is not a bar. Might be back because of the food, but might not because of the poor service. I was here on a Saturday around 11pm.

You can get anything on the menu and feel like you just got into heaven. Amazing staff and love the fact its a small little bar seating cafe its the best place in San Diego. Breakfast and tacos and much much more. Just go and find out and spread the word

CANT OPEN ON TIME. This place was one of my favorites to eat at. So i show up with some guests and we were on time for opening so we tapped on the window and the guy said 10 more mins so we waited our 15 mins and attempted to go in again and this time he just shook his head and said not yet. I dont have time for your laziness Night and Day Cafe.. Went to Claytons at least they open on time.

Even though it may be a bit expensive, the food is amazing. Props to the cook. As far as the service, the lady was very slow and got 3 of my friends orders wrong. She blamed the menu for one of the orders instead of correcting the mistake and giving us the correct order that we paid for. She was also extremely slow with distributing our drinks. Overall, great food/cook, bad/slow service.

Yummy yummy in my tummy at 10 pm on a Sunday. I got the chicken chimichanga covered in white sauce and it was fantabulous! Laid back service at the counter while we watched the cook do his thang. The clientele was laid back and cool too, willing to shove down for us to make room at the counter - dont forget to pay it forward when a larger group comes in. Try it! Youll love it too!
