While there's really nothing super special about the atmosphere, the food was good, and the service was excellent. I had to take half of my breakfast home because it was a very generous size.

I found this spot after a quick Google search for brunch in DTSLO after I inadvertently had the day off from work. I had a donut from another downtown spot that tickled my appetite and wanted a full plate a food to get the energy I needed for the day. Being only a 12 minute walk from the downtown library, I waltzed over here to find a full patio and quaint indoor dining room. I walked up to the counter and was greeted by a young, dirty blonde that asked me what I needed. She quoted me a five minute wait time and directed me to a bench on the patio.
.
They seated me promptly within my wait time at the first table I saw upon walking up to the diner. A square four top in the corner facing the street. Coupled with some great valley/mountain views I excited to have my first brunch in San Luis. I ordered a mimosa and the California Benedict. I didn't have to order water because my server came with a glass for me already.
.
I wasn't able to take pictures of my food because I asked my server to charge my phone while I was eating. The presentation of the plate was messy, but the food was scrumptious. The avocado seeped into the English muffin and was the perfect bed for a medium poached egg. It was also smothered in hollandaise sauce and came with home fries. A salt and peppered hair gentleman check in on me while I was eating and complimented my reading choice. I cleaned my plate, read my book, finished my mimosa and enjoyed the epic views. Grand total was $20.55 (pre-tip). This same dish would have easily costed upwards of $30 closer to the town center. I was happy I got to explore and always love a good neighborhood spot. Am excited to bring my best friend here and will be back again!

California Benedict
Made a quick stop here while on the road. I got scrambled eggs and bacon with a biscuit and gravy. My friend got the cowboy Benedict.
We loved it. I am a bacon lover and this was some of the best bacon I have ever had. It had a slightly smokey flavor and it was a little thicker than what you usually get at a restaurant.
The gravy was also very good and I know how to make an authentic southern sausage gravy and this surprisingly had some nice seasoning and the consistency was great.
The cowboy Benedict is biscuits and gravy w sausage patties and fried eggs.
I made my friend give me a bite. Yummy.
The coffee was good also and that isn't always the case at a diner.
Prices were good and the portions are large so if you better be hungry upon arrival.
Parking is available in back. There is also outdoor seating for those of you who prefer that still.
Definitely check out Breakfast Buzz and tell the Meek sent you.
You will b happy you went.

California Benedict
All the cups had dirty dish grease dripping down the insides. Some solidified from the cold water, and I drank before realizing. 🤢
The burger was actually not bad.
They said their dishwashing guy is new.

Food was excellent! Staff was friendly, and knowledgeable. Food came out fast, and prices were good. My only take back is it’s small and a bit noisy. However the food and staff is so great I will be back.

The buzz burrito is really good and tasty. I should have asked for the bacon on the side because it was kind of hard to find. The salsa is terrific and you should ask for a second serving which I did. Salsa is mild to medium hot. Staff is friendly and place is clean. Parking in back for a good many cars. Seating inside with two tables three benches three at the counter. There is a lot of seating outside. Order at the counter and they'll bring it to you. Lost one star for lack of bacon in my opinion.

One of the handful of dedicated breakfast spots in SLO, it's dead simple and delicious. Super friendly staff, very casual with lots of shady outdoor seating. The menu is very burrito focused but there are a great variety of Benedicts, breakfast sweet dishes like waffles and french toast, and a la carte breakfast staples like bacon, eggs, and toast. The huevos bendictos was a take on the Benedict with chorizo, delicious sauce, and a perfectly runny yolk. My companions had the French toast with was delicious with plenty of table syrup. Solid breakfast spot that was full but without a wait on a Saturday morning.
