I felt like I just left a bizarre alternate universe. I got a tuna melt and my wife attempted to eat "chilaquiles". I put that in quotes because it was just eggs and cheese with random strips of limp tortillas. It was so weird. She got about 1 bite in before she called it quits and sent it back, canned beans and all. My tuna melt came with weird soggy frozen fries and so much relish that it was weirdly sugary. The bread was so oily that it looked like I had just changed the oil on our car. The best part is what others have mentioned: the prices are absurd. Omelettes range from $13-19. I thought "these people are either totally disconnected from reality, or the food is amazing." Turned out it it was the former. The one positive I can say is the server seemed nice enough. He luckily took the chilaquiles off the bill, though he told us he didnt have any $1s for change, so he gave us an extra dollar back so that we could go ahead and tip him $5 (over 30%). So weird. Bizarre experience.

I went to Pat and Lorraines Coffee Shop for breakfast and I was very disappointed. I wanted to find a good coffee shop in the area so I stop in Pat and Lorraines. I feel that the food is VERY over priced and not that good! The thing that really annoyed me the most, was all the flies inside the restaurant. The service was not very good either, 1st the coffee was cold and then they got my girlfriends order wrong even after she explained in detail how she wanted her food cooked. I feel that I payed Beverly Hills prices and in reality I was in Eagle Rock with all the flies. I will never return and I would not recommend anyone to go eat at Pat and Lorraines coffee shop unless you want to pay top dollar for low quality breakfast !!! $39.95 breakfast for two...

Came here recently for breakfast because I have fond memories of dining here years and years ago. Unfortunately, it just isnt the same as it used to be. Cons: Prices are too high for the quality of food you get (~$20 for a basic omelette and mediocre coffee). Not a lot of options if you dont eat pork or beef. Cash only. Pros: Friendly staff. Outdoor seating. Plenty of parking in their lot. Other: Huge portions (not sure if this is a pro or con because I dont necessarily want to order a plate that has enough food to feed 2-3 people). Wouldnt come back here personally & would only recommend it if you have a huge appetite and dont care about the price tag.

I dont understand these reviews about the food being expensive or the waitresses are old. WRONG! The breakfasts are between 8.95-12.For years I eat here and bring the leftovers home for a week of breakfasts left! Order 2 poached eggs they give you three. The waitresses are in their 30-40s not ancient and very accommodating ! They make a garlic salsa you can put on youre eggs thats awesome .Anyone that wants cheaper theres mcdonalds drive thru.resevoir dog diner shouldnt be bright and shiney, its exactly what it should be!

When I first looked at the menu I was surprised how high the prices seemed UNTIL we got our order. The portions are huge. Also the service was really great,everyone is very friendly. Seems like a place where neighborhood regulars go, everyone seemed to know each other. I have a limited diet so just ordered sides but my husband had a breakfast burrito and loved it.

My wife and I have eaten breakfast there several times -- we normally order the vegetarian omlette -- lots of veggies -- lots of potatoes on the side (we normally split the plate). Food is tasty, and abundant. Boxes available for take home of left overs. One more thing, cash only (there is an ATM on the premises), but no credit / debit cards.

Very good food. Super big portions, enough for sharing. Watch out what you order cause you probably not gonna finish it all. Huge & Delicious pancakes. Good coffee. Biscuits and gravy. Lots of omelettes to chose from. They always have the special of the day written on the board. Theres a patio seating area too. Nice family owned restaurant.

every one who gets to sit after us gets their food. I dont know what the problem was, but we couldnt stay any longer that we have to leave with out eating. at least they didnt make us pay for the coffee though. about the food ........ we didnt eat but looks nice. customer service ...2/10

This place is legit diner, HUGE portions it should really be 1 dollar sign Instead of two. My boyfriend and I can eat a lot and even we had to get to go boxes! If you bring a friend and order one meal you will Both leave STUFFED! Solid quality for the price.

Breakfast burritos are huge, enough for 2 easy and are tasty, but they have become extremely overpriced for the quality, at least do some upgrades to the dinning area if your going to price gouge. Ok so what that Reservoir Dogs opening scene was filmed there.

Not a bad joint for breakfast. But a little on the pricey side for diner food. Stick to the daily specials if you can. Basic 2 pancakes, eggs and bacon is $16. But on daily special it was only $10. Portions are big but who does take home of breakfast?

Two stars for the fact this place was where they filmed the opening diner scene in Reservoir Dogs. The food was not very good (and even worse considering the price). And its cash only. Welcome to 2014, and the world of plastic money.

I have been going to this place since the late 90s and I havent eaten breakfast at any other restaurant any where since the first time I went to this place!!! Pat & Lorraines is the best for a good hardy steaming HOT breakfast!!!!!!

Enjoyed the breakfast served at this super old school family coffee shop. Apparently, one restaurant that hasnt been affected by its hipster surroundings. Could be a good thing. Food portions were good. Service was excellent.

Its your typical greasy spoon with Mexican food items. I had the French toast which wasnt bad. I am not dying to go back for the french toast, but on the instance that I go back, there is plenty to choose from.

The closest to home kitchen atmosphere small and friendly mature or unexperienced waitreses dont matter and prices? Shame on people that value their pockets more than their taste for good food

Big portions of food !! My husband and share a plate and thats a lot! They always have the special of the day, take advantage is affordable and a good selection. Our favorite is pork chops.

If authentic Latin food is looking for, this is the place. No frills, no thrills. Simply good food. My personal favorite is the Green Salsa verde. Homemade biscuits are delicious too!

Joey Hernandez

Yum. I love this place. And, yeah, not the cheapest place. But, you always get enough food to take a big doggy bag home. And, I always eat it before my dogs get close to it.

Place was dead when I passed so I decided to give it a go since there wasnt any wait time. Food was ok, rice wasnt fresh. Chips stale. I paid 20 dollars for chorizo.

This place is super cool and, more importantly, the espresso is excellent. Also, the staff is really friendly and very open about their processes and equipment.
