"Two things make this humble little diner an essential visit for any Angeleno. For one, it’s the oldest restaurant in LA, having served the likes of John Wayne and Theodore Roosevelt since opening in 1886. The other is community: beloved by locals and tourists who make regular pilgrimages to its Railroad Avenue outpost for breakfast, Saugus Cafe feels like a hug from an old friend." - Sean L. Malin

We came on a Monday, so there was no wait time for us, and luckily when we arrived it wasn’t so busy, but within no time we noticed this place got busy quickly. Our breakfast orders came in a great wait time. About 15 mins. Our server was very friendly and gave us some background on the restaurant, which we enjoyed knowing some history to this place. The food was very tasteful. The older man that came to our table refilling our coffee cups was very attentive. Enjoyed the feeling of this old vintage dining atmosphere. Recommend this place, and would love visiting again.

Loved this little diner. It was our first time there and we weren't disappointed. The waiters were friendly and patient as we weren't sure what to order. Our waiter was very accommodating to my order as well. It was quiet and clean, and there was plenty of seating inside. I'm not sure how it gets on the weekends as we went during the week.

Exactly what I wanted in a diner, love it! This place is the real deal, a little walk back in time. The food is good ole diner food with the right ambiance and excellent service. I had the sausage, mushroom, avocado and Swiss cheese omelette with fried potatoes and rye toast, delicious!!

A piece of history. As of December 2023, breakfast meals are priced between $14-$18. Seating comfort was about average. Servers were prompt and pleasant, refilling our coffees when they looked low. I had a Denver “omelette” with home fries and an English muffin. Other than their delicious pan-fried English muffins, there’s nothing all that remarkable that would make me want to come back. It’s…one of the places.

I had a delicious BLT (PICTURED) My partner had a burger (not pictured) we were not sure if they were open. This cozy diner holds lots of history and excellent customer service, provided to us by Maria. She was very attentive and kind. They have a large menu and a welcoming restaurant. We would recommend them for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Great place to stop for classic dinner food. Very friendly and attentive service. The food was great. The price is what you'd expect for the post covid era.

Not bad food as far as taste but overall… bad! I’ve lived in Santa Clarita for almost 20 years now and people have always ranted and raved about this café and I’ve never tried it until today. I had food delivered. Two entire pieces of my bacon, lettuce, tomato and avocado sandwich literally had no bacon on it. There was enough lettuce on it to make a side salad. I was extremely disappointed and I’m still hungry, because there wasn’t enough quality substance to my food. I definitely don’t think that a lettuce sandwich was worthy of $14

This is an amazing place to go for a brunch. There was a waiting line of 10 minutes but it took less for us to get a spot. The food is really delicious and the portions are big. The staff is wonderful and so friendly! I’ll definitely go back! Also, lots of parking space!
