Their Breakfast Burrito is the bomb, or a gut bomb, whew! Served on a plate with Mexican Rice and Refried Pinto Beans, the Breakfast Burrito from the S & W Country Diner is loaded. This is a Cali/Mex classic burrito.
The eggs are scrambled, the bacon is crisp and in large pieces, and the hash browns are of the shredded variety and browned.
The Pico de Gallo of chopped onion, tomato, and cilantro is fresh, all wrapped in a large flour tortilla topped with a mild Salsa Verde (green tomatillo) and melted, shredded Cheddar Cheese. Who could ask for more?
The Breakfast Burrito is bookended with Refried Beans and Mexican Rice. The Refried Beans are made the way I like them. Refried Beans are sometimes mashed to mush, but I like them with a bit of texture from small, solid pieces. The Mexican Rice is tangy and blushed with tomato sauce/paste. This is the way I had Beans and Rice when I lived in the Mexican border state of Texas.
The flour tortilla is extra-large and bulging with typical breakfast ingredients. The Breakfast Burritos I've had usually are stuffed with beans and rice, but this version has Hash Browns instead - I enjoyed this version.
You can skip lunch after this breakfast. My wife kept it simple with Eggs Over Easy, Hash Browns, and Turkey Sausage.
They make a darn good cup of Joe. We arrived after the breakfast rush. The service is quick and efficient, keeping the coffee cup filled, and you don't have to ask for water.
The decor is old-school diner with vintage posters and classic metal signage. You seat yourself at the counter or tables - we sat in a roomy red upholstered booth.
Bring a fat wallet as the Diner is "Cash Only". Breakfast with coffee for two was $41.86, excluding the tip.
The Breakfast Menu is as large as the Lunch Menu. All the familiar diner classics are here to enjoy.
In the heart of Culver City and next to the Kirk Douglas Theater, S & W Country Diner has metered parking out front and parking structures nearby.
S & W Country Diner is home cooking in the big city with a small-town atmosphere. They are open for breakfast and lunch and closed by 2pm.
I think my next breakfast will be Eggs Over Easy with Biscuits and Gravy.
