What People Are Saying
from Google"We stopped by for breakfast before a long day in La Jolla. We both got October specials- chicken mole omelet and the mole chilaquiles as well as a blended caramel cold coffee and a Mexican mocha and every single thing was incredible! This was only to be outdone by the wonderful gentleman behind the counter who treated every customer we saw come in as a long time friend and took great care of us. My only regret is not being able to try more off the menu"
"We had a quick lunch here and the food came quickly and the staff was friendly and attentive. We ordered two items off their happy hour menu and both dishes were cooked well and were delicious. It is important to note that the happy hour portion sizes are small though. We were fine with that because we wanted a small meal anyways but that might not be what other people are seeking when they come here. For example, we ordered the fish n chips and although it came with a generous amount of thick cut fries, there was only one piece of fish (it was fried to perfection though). And we ordered a slider dish and it came with a handful of skinny fries and one, singular slider. Again, we were completely fine with that because it was a great price and we were not super hungry but if you are hungry, I recommend ordering off the regular menu or getting multiple orders off the happy hour menu."

"It was my first time here and I was a little sceptical because it says "healthy" on their sign. I was actually very satisfied. And yes!!.. the food was all very healthy, lean and fresh. ECB has a range of items on the menu with different flavors. Price is worth the quality. I will be returning and recommending"
"Love, love, love El Cajon Bistro! It really is the best breakfast in town. Almost as if the North Park brunch scene found its way to east county, and I'm so happy it did. I always get a Benedict, the poached eggs are always perfect and the hollandaise is satisfying. The salsa that came with the breakfast potatoes was SO GOOD. I will be dreaming about it until I can have it again. My grandma and I always come here whenever I am in town. Highly recommend."
