From The Blind Pig to the sandwich counter

The team behind a beloved OC speakeasy asked a simple question: why can't a fast lunch be just as good as a sit-down meal?

What our guests are saying

Best breakfast burrito I’ve ever had, great combination of flavors, and I loved the sausage option. Portions are fairly big, so you’ll stay full for a good part of the day. The location is also beautiful, you can grab your food and sit by the lake to enjoy your breakfast. Definitely a must-try.

I am no burrito expert, but this has got to be the best breakfast burrito in town! I keep coming to this place and it NEVER disappoints! Light on the Tots and light on the cheese for me…the steak and or the chicken are delicious! Well done crew!

I never knew this existed. I ordered the tuna salad and the vegan sandwich. My friend ordered a big breakfast burrito and he took me to this small but cute restaurant by the lake. I don't eat a lot, but the two took me three days to eat. Totally worth the price and both items were so tasty! Great job guys! I will be back.
