Cadillac Cafe

We loved Cadillac Cafe and will definitely be back! They have Mexican breakfast items, mimosas and HUGE micheladas, a solid tuna melt and clam chowder, onion rings, great service, and are open until 3 pm! All that equals IDEAL BRUNCH PLACE!!! I have a rule when I'm on the coast: If there's clam chowder on the menu, we order a cup. This one was very good. Everything--the clams, potatoes--was diced very finely, which was different, but not in a bad way. I think it made everything more evenly distributed. I don't miss the huge chunks of potatoes you find in some clam chowders, but I do miss the whole clams. Not sure what that red spice is (paprika, tajin)? It was seasoned well and not salty. Best part: Only $3.50 a cup! Phil's in Castroville still has the best clam chowder IMO, but this one

Service was fast, accurate and very pleasant. Food was tasty, hot and quickly served. A lot of great food options on the menu.

Road trip. Early morning cravings for home style comfort foods. And Cadillac Cafe delivered. Has whistle stop cafe vibe and menu. I woke up a big foggy so needed to start out with a coffee and their coffee was superb. Ordered the corned beef hash part because It sounded good but also because I believe that this dish is a good indicator or the authenticity and quality of the kitchen. It was delicious and immense portions so much that I was able to share. Also came with. Pancake 🥞 which I was craving so an added bonus. I do plan to return to the area and look forward to trying other menu items. Highly recommend. And start with coffee.

Food was good 😋 We only had to wait 20mins for a table. It was around 11am. They offer indoor and outdoor seating. You will be seated quicker if you have no preferance. Staff is inviting and friendly. Food was prepared fairly quickly. Coffee is tasty, they had french vanilla or hazelnut singles. Plenty of Splenda for my coffee :) It was alot of food. I took it home and ate it the next morning for breakfast. I ordered chicken fried steak with scramble eggs, potatoes and fruit. Joe had steak and scramble eggs with potatoes and fruit.

This place is a cultural as well as a culinary experience. Everything from the food to the service had a strong 1950's diner feel / spin to it. Felt like I was family, at my aunt and uncles house. They actually enjoyed having my relatively quiet, well behaved children there. (We opted to sit on the patio to avoid possibly irritating the customers inside) The first time I ate here by myself, was no different. The food is EXCELLENT. The Ruben is better than most. The chilequile's were surprisingly delicious (had a 50's style spin to it that was actually pleasant)
