I have no idea how, but somehow I've passed this place like 700 times and never noticed it there. A friend recently told me she had it for dinner and raved about it, described where it was and I knew all the businesses surrounding it, but it's so discreet and hidden to me that I never knew it existed. Bummer because I've had it twice since she recently told me and it was delicious both times! The service is quick and the staff is sweet. The food is so fresh and tasty and the portions are massive. I only ate about a 5th of my salad and saved the rest. My kids had a hard time deciding what to order because they have so many tasty things on the menu. So now we just have to keep going back so we can try more. :-) I hope they get some better signage or promote it somewhere or something so they get more business! I like small hidden gems like this and I want them to last in the community!

Broasted chicken delicious as always. There were two big potato wedges as well that were well cooked. But the toasted rolls that normally come with this were missing. The nice thing about the Broasted chicken dinner is instead of coleslaw or salad you can sub extra fries. And they give you a very generous double fries, overflowing in the bag. I had a bacon avocado cheeseburger which was pretty satisfying. Plus some of my husband's abundant fries. Prepare to wait a bit for the Broasted chicken, it's made to order.

Very cute outdoor diner place. I went to a Paul's Place in Merced, CA, but did not give off this same feel and vibe. Service was great, and we ordered the zucchini fries, onion rings, and a chicken parmesan sandwich. Honestly, the zucchini fries were yummier than I expected!

First timer at Paul's Place! Would definitely go again and again to try different items on the menu. Straight up American diner food but easy to order, private parking, reasonable prices and a nice outdoor patio area. Fried Zucchini was DELISH, Philly Cheese Steak was DELISH but my 3D Burger was just ok. I appreciate a Big sized burger (granted my usual order at In&Out is a 4x4 w/ everything on it) but this burger had an old oil taste to the patties. Obviously, my taste buds didn't like that. But the menu is big enough to try again! I'm looking forward to another order of fried zucchini and perhaps adding fried mushrooms too. They have many salads as well for those of you who like to eat raw veggies. Side note: I would have appreciated a side of pickles with my burger/sandwich order. For myself, I'm going to try another type of sandwich next time! Definitely RECOMMEND PP!

After driving by Paul's Place every time I'm in Los Alamitos, the hubs and I finally made it to this establishment for a quick lunch date. We both got the Cali burger combo. I got mine with onion rings (the photos on Yelp looked so good) and an horchata to drink. The hubs got his with fries and a rootbeer. Everything was delicious and then some. Neither of us could finish our meal but had very happy bellies. We called in our order as we were driving up. This was key to having our food ready as we pulled up to the pick-up counter. There was a line of at least 5 parties in front of us. We found parking in their lot. Their dining room is very welcoming and comfortable. Will definitely return!

We stopped by this place last month, and when we were looking for something quick to eat we remembered it. It is a walk up restaurant where you order at the window and all of the tables are on the patio. It's a huge patio and the tables are relatively spread out. It's surrounded with pots with plants in it - - somebody clearly has a green thumb. The menu is enormous, and serves everything from Greek food ( I think that it is primarily supposed to be a Greek restaurant?? ) to Mexican food to broasted chicken. There are hamburgers and hot dogs and huge salads. There are different kinds of sandwiches and ice cream. Really there's something for everyone here. On this visit I ordered a grilled chicken salad. It was a huge salad with sliced boiled egg, half of an avocado, croutons and a grilled chicken breast. The chicken breast was absolutely delicious - - not at all dry and clearly marinated in something yummy. It came with grilled pita bread. I ordered Caesar dressing on the side, and I think it might have come from a bottle. That was the one thing I didn't love about the salad. Hubby ordered a chili cheese dog which was delicious and exactly as you would expect a chili cheese dog to be. Son ordered a patty melt. He loved the rye bread it was on, and he can be picky about rye bread. It did not come with fries, and he did not order a side. We have had the fries before and they are fine if you need more food, but this was plenty for us. We did not order the broasted chicken this visit, but we did have it last visit and I can tell you it is 100% delicious. It is a huge order though, and too big for any of us on this visit. None of us were very hungry. There seems to be a constant stream of people coming and picking up food. It's a nice little patio to sit on a on a nice night.
