Woody’s Diner

Okay, other than my fiancé’s burgers, these are the best I’ve had locally. My fiancé had the pastrami burger, I had the house cheese burger with bacon. Both of us had the beer battered fries. We went in on Thursday I think, buy one burger get one burger free day. Phenomenal offer, fantastic burgers, extremely amazing staff, super clean place!
I think this is my new burger go to joint. It doesn’t get any better!

This is a cute little spot. The girls are all really sweet and the food is amazing! Definitely coming back.

Food was amazing. Service was good too. Our daughters kids meal came inside a paper Cadillac. It was really cute and probably the best part of the meal lol I’m so glad schooner or later was packed because it gave my family a chance to try this fantastic new place! We will definitely be back

I love it here! They have excellent service and their burgers are absolutely amazing! Their shake was also delicious! Previously, I had been to the one at Huntington beach so I wanted to come by again with my boyfriend after a day of kite flying at the beach. I don’t think I will be back unless I’m in the area since this is quite a drive out from where I’m from. Both my boyfriend and I were surprised at how delicious the batter on the onion rings were. He got the bacon avocado cheeseburger and I got the Olé burger (I like a little jalapeño kick).
Their portions are generous and I love the beer battered fries (although I think the location at HB might do it slightly better because I didn’t really taste the beer). Their burgers are fresh and juicy! Crunchy lettuce. There’s nothing not to like about this place! My boyfriend especially liked the mini jukeboxes that they had.

Loved it! Excellent service, kids loved it too! I was so hungry I forgot to take a pic! I had an omelette, spinach, bacon, tomato and onion with cheddar. Custom! With cottage cheese. It was yum! Great service, laid back!

Okay… malts only they get a 5 star rating and customer service gets a 5. Food quality is about a 3 because It’s a little bland. On the burger… the toppings were better than the actual burger. Our table had turkey croissant, spuds with eggs, avacado burger, and malts. We’ll definitely come back for a shake.

The place was empty when I arrived (it was a Thursday night after all). The food and service however was amazing. Wish I remembered my waitress’ name (she was blonde?) as she was never hesitant to give me refills and I never had to ask her once for anything. The corned beef hash was awesome, I definitely recommend getting the homestyle potatoes too. I’ll be back!

Cool little diner near the beach. Big portion, good flavor, good pricing. I ordered bbq salad which was big. Will come back for breakfast.

Food and service was good until the end. Our server didn’t offer us boxes so I had to go up to the counter to grab one and by the time I returned to my table the bus boy had trashed all of our food I barely even touched my food and it all went to waste. It was really good too…

The waitress was really attentive and friendly… relaxed atmosphere and good breakfast. Esp the homefries and hashbrowns

I have been visiting Woody’s for over 12 years now and finally decided to post. The service remains top notch and the food is very good. My last visit was yesterday and I had my favorite Pork Chorizo which was delicious. Thank you Woody’s for maintaining the consistent ambience, food and service all these years!

Great atmosphere! The food was good but the onion rings needed salt. $ 37 for a family of 4. Overall, I was a happy camper

FANTASTIC! I really loved the food. Regular burger was cooked perfectly. I opted for regular fries as well. Everything arrived fresh and hot!

Limited parking in its lot. Place can be busy on weekends. Food is ok.
1. Butterscotch milkshake– All their milkshakes are made with vanilla ice cream with syrup mixed in. I was disappointed that our syrup was not mixed well so I only tasted vanilla ice cream most of the time. Upside was that itt wasn’t too sweet.
2. Texas BBQ burger– Sauce and fried onion was good. Patty was ok. a bit thin and not juicy at all. Liked the beer battered fries over the regular fries as they were crispier, but you don’t taste the beer at all.
3. Hawaiian burger– pretty good. not as good as Islands’ Hawaiian burger.
Everyone else is in our group finished most of their food (i.e. Super Suds, breakfast), but thought it was ok.

This is a great American classic diner spot.
Food tastes good and the service is friendly.
Blackened chicken sandwich is especially good!
I’m definitely coming back when I go surfing in the area.

I will take this place over harbor house any day. I’ve never really had a bad experience at this diner. Every waitress has been friendly. Liz & Elaine are amazing! My order has always been taken and received in a timely fashion. I have never received cold food, raw food or a bitter attitude.
Shakes are made delicious & breakfast specials are made yummy & totally affordable. The diner is always clean & is somewhat reminiscent of surf in the late fifties & early sixties.
The turkey avocado croissant & the California chicken are my go to sandwiches here. Give em a whirl. :)

Breakfast time! Got lucky to find parking in quickness – yes, they do have a private parking lot but it is limited. Woody’s Diner is a bit compact, but luckily, it wasn’t as pack when we went. I love the atmosphere and décor, they even have this vintage jukebox, and you can choose a song to play for .50 cents. The customer service is great – she was attentive and helpful. The breakfast menu is quite extensive and reasonably priced.
I’ve got me the New York Steak and two eggs with a side. Fressh fruits! The steak was good, it’s a bit too cooked, even when I suggest it medium. I also loved their toasts, well especially their Cinnamon French toasts topped with Nutella, banana and powdered sugar! Yumm. Overall, had a great time here and their food are great.

LOVE this place!
This location of Woody’s has been around since the late 80’s I believe. That seems like a long time ago but I say that, that would make me old too and I not quite ready to be admitting that. Besides I am young at heart and spirit and sometimes mind! Haahaah! I think they have like 4 location but this location is by far my fav.
It is located right across from Harbor House, on PCH, just over the Seal Beach water way bridge. When you see the water tower slow slowdown cuz it’s a hop away. Parking is HORRIBLE but that goes with the territory of it being in a beach city. I have always found pretty decent parking but the lot is preemie-​baby butt tiny.
You enter in the front and sometimes can just go find a seat other times they want you to wait to be seated so it just depends on the time of day or how busy they are. On this particular day my group was able to just waltz in a find a seat.
We were greeted and brought menus right away and she also took our drink orders as well. Since we all had been out on the water kayaking we took turns going to wash our hands. No one was really interested in adding the sand, porpoise spit and ocean ameba to their meal.
While we checked out the menu our drinks arrived and she took our orders. M got the Chicken avocado club which came with grilled chicken, and topped with jack cheese, avocado, bacon, lettuce, tomato and mayo on a whole wheat bun. S got the avocado tuna wrap which came with white albacore tuna, avocado, tomato, red onion, lettuce and cheddar cheese wrapped in a sun-​dried tomato tortilla. B got a Longboard veggie omelet with ‘shrooms, tomato, green inion, jack and cheddar cheese, and topped with cream cheese, but she substituted the ‘shrooms with olives. And I got the Maui fish wrap which came with breaded Atlantic Cod, cabbage, black beans, cheddar cheese, cilantro, and avocado, NO TOMATO, with a chipotle sauce and wrapped in a flour tortilla.
Everyone LOVED there food. M and I split a basket of fries and rings which we still didn’t eat all off. It was SOOOO GOOD! I think we had all worked up an appetite on the water, and having fun in the sun! The service was great and our server kept our glasses full but wasn’t a hover-​craft which I hate! She made sure we were COMFORTABLE and HAPPY!
This place ALWAYS had a REALLY NICE chill-​axin fell to it. I mean it’s near the beach so if you’re up tight this is probably NOT the place for you! This is more along the lines of shorts, bathing suits, flip-​flops, sun dress, wet/​damp hair sort of attire. No one care who you are or who you kick it! It’s ZZZ-​BEST sudo-​whole in the wall type place!
I will of course be back as I have for over 20 years.

Forget Coco’s. This is the place if you want a decent sized breakfast. I got the chorizo combo with scrambled eggs, rye toast, and home fried potatoes. The scrambled eggs were cooked even better than my scrambled eggs back home! LOL The chorizo filling was spicy enough for me to get a morning kick, and I didn’t taste anything burnt on my toast. The vegetation with the home fried potatoes (bell peppers and onions) weren’t too soggy or soft…
And the coffee? Well, I’d usually go all fancy like a macchiato, but since this is a DINER, I’d have to go black with 2 – 3 packs of sugar. Not bad. The coffee didn’t taste burnt or bitter, so I’d give a star for that, but overall, this place is really good if you’re into big portions.

This place will never change. It’s just another surfy greasy spoon with huarachi sandals vibe. And that’s cool with me.
