The most popular breakfast spot in Pacific Beach. It's located right by the Crystal Pier. There is usually a line outside if you get there after 9 am but the line moves quickly and its worth it. Cheap food and huge portions served up on paper plates. Come with an appetite or split a plate with a friend.
