Ocean Diner

★★★★★4.7(877 Google reviews)

Crema's Take

This beloved Hermosa Beach fixture blends classic diner charm with genuine coffee craftsmanship, drawing locals who appreciate straightforward quality over trendy flourishes. The no-nonsense approach extends to their espresso drinks and filter coffee, prepared with the kind of consistency that keeps people coming back for their morning ritual rather than the Instagram moment.

Solid diner spot with a huge selection of dishes. The prices are all affordable, and the portion sizes are huge. The French toast was so flavorful and the biscuits were massive. Highly recommend!

I used to come to this place as a kid with my dad, so it is extremely nostalgic. This is your local diner with a bit of a Mexican twist. They have pretty much anything you could think of when it comes to a diner. Also look out for the cute old couple. That’s there pretty much every day at the end of the bar.

Had the best Huevos Rancheros ever! The service was excellent. Love the decor in the diner and the Old Band music. Definitely a great experience!

We visited Ocean Diner because we're were looking for a place with breakfast offerings. We came late in the morning, so we were able to easily find on street parking and were able to be seated right away. We opted to sit outside. There are a few tables on the sidewalk by the street available. It makes for a charming place to have coffee and breakfast. The service was good and fairly prompt. The coffee was good and served with cream and sugar. We enjoyed our food as well! They had many traditional and innovative menu choices! It was a pretty wide selection of great offerings! If I lived in the area, I would go back again because it was an overall enjoyable dining out experience!

This diner may be small and often crowded, but it offers a really cozy atmosphere with excellent service. Despite the hustle and bustle, the staff remained attentive and friendly throughout. The portions were generous, and the menu had plenty of healthy options, like the high-protein breakfast with salmon and egg whites—perfect for a nutritious start to the day. The oatmeal crème brûlée was a pleasant surprise, rich and delicious. However, the real star of the meal was the strawberry cheesecake waffles—they were absolutely out of this world! On the downside, I wasn’t a huge fan of the biscuit and gravy skillet, but overall, the diner serves up a satisfying, well-rounded breakfast experience.
