Kono's Cafe

Must try the breakfast burrito 5. If chorizo is your thing, you are gonna love it. You have to wait in line. No order ahead or delivery. I could see the line getting really long, but when we went it was only about 20 people. The food is fresh and reasonably priced. Try their signature potato's.

My family has been coming to Kono's since 2000. The cheeseburgers are life. The simplicity makes them perfect. The Konos breakfast is also so simple and so perfect. Since we've been visiting Konos for so long, we've gotten to know some of the long-time staff. I joke that if my dad had Martin's address, he'd send Christmas cards. The food is great and when you can meat a burger with this view, what else could get better?

WOW! The previous reviews that we read before deciding to stop by Kono's this morning were spot on.The food was great. The service was quick. And the location? RIGHT off the beach at Crystal Pier! Perfection.My best friend and I are in town celebrating 20 years of friendship. I ordered the breakfast sandwich (as offered, no alterations), and she ordered the Big Breakfast #2. We finished everything and were so pleased. I also had the fruit cup. Mmmm... delicious.If you're in the area- stop by. You won't regret it! (The coffee stand just past the patio was good too. A little pricey, but perfect for washing down the breakfast sandwich - I had the iced Milky Way Mocha)

Great spot right next to the water. Eat then stroll along the beach and catch some great views French toast and breakfast burrito were both delish!!! They split them both no problem. Nice portions. Food was fresh. Indoor ambience was Ok but to just walk outside and be on the water is amazing. Good spot for sure !!!!

Great place at Pacific Beach has a deck sitting with an Ocean view. Food is delicious. I had a Veggie Egg Scramble. Service is very good. Cashier is kind and friendly. I customize my order and came out very good. If you down in Pacific Beach check this place out.

I'm giving this place because the prices can't be beat for the location & amount of food. Crowd: locals (you know that means it's good!)Food: go for the burritos!! The quantities are huge. It's not the most amazing food, but it's good for the price!Coffee: get it somewhere else!The place is small, you order at the cashier and they bring you your food - you can go sit at the patio by the ocean, on the other side of the street. Tough to find a spot, but worth it. The people working there were alllll super nice and helpful! I would go back, but I would NOT get coffee there, not good. Unless you like dinner type coffee.

Family-owned joints like this, that have been around for decades, often become so beloved that their reputation precedes them far outside of their supposed sphere of influence. Case in point: I'd heard of Kono's Cafe all the way back home in Portland, so I knew we were in for good things here.Queue up to order: there will be a line, but it moves fast enough to not be an issue, and slow enough to allow you to whittle down your selection before ordering. I had the Kono's Burger (fantastic! if I don't need to ask for steak sauce, that says something!), my wife had the chorizo breakfast sandwich, and the rest of our party of friends had...other stuff that I didn't pay attention to. Nobody left hungry or dissatisfied, I can tell you that!There isn't any "service" other than the interaction with those at the counter, but even that brief encounter was jovial and welcoming; the owners and employees here seem happy to be there and to serve, which is always a plus. But hey, if I worked on the San Diego coast, I'd probably like my job more, too! I also dig the surfer vibe they've got going on here. It really ties everything together. Very recommended, and lives up to everything good I'd heard about the Kono Cafe! Would return in a heartbeat!

Great food in a great location. The place is small so good luck trying to find seating inside when it's busy. That being said, their portion sizes are huge for the price and the food is delicious. It's right on the walking path so you can take your meal to go and enjoy it on the beach.

I've been to Konito's and I really like it, so I figured, why not try Kono's? Just as good with a line out the door and a nearby beach to walk on afterward.The french toast was nice with a side of bacon and the burritos have a great tortilla, fluffy eggs and other fresh fillings. Don't forget to ask for the salsa! :)

We made sure we got there before they opened because we can see how it can get crazy on a Sunday morning. The staff was great and very personable. I ordered the chorizo burrito and my buddy ordered the breakfast #2. First, you order your food in a line then servers bring the food out to you. My burrito was huge with plenty of flavor. I could barely finish it and I was hungry. My buddy's plate was also huge and he said it was all delicious. The place has a nice vibe. We sat inside, but I believe there's a seating area across the way where you could view the beach. This will be a breakfast stop for me whenever in the Pacific Beach area. A must try, but get there early. By the time we left, there was a line with about 20 people waiting to put their order in.
