It’s always sad to see a great business go away after many years. I came by today to get my last Bali burger before they close at the end of the month. Their food is so delicious and fresh! If you get a chance to come in and try their food before the end of Jan 2026 , I’d highly recommend that.

I love this place. I’ve been coming here since it was captain culver’s…. Over 20 years ago… and the things I’m obsessed with are:
1. Bombay Melt (curried chicken with secret Bali sauce, tomato, onion, and cheese atop an English muffin) served with soup of the day, green salad, or potato salad
2. POG- passionfruit, orange, guava juice.
They also have delicious smoothies.
The place is owned by Mauricio but you’ll often find his daughters working the restaurant. :)
They are lovely people with excellent customer service.
You can sit inside or outside. It’s a very laid back vibe. You order at the counter, and then they will bring your food out to you or call you when it’s ready.
The only thing you need to know, is sometimes they close a little early.. even though their hours are usually till 16:00, I’ve found them closed at 15:00 or 15:30. I suspect it all depends on how busy they are. So, if you want an afternoon snack, I recommend you call ahead to make sure they are still open.

Mediocre at best.
We came here for breakfast. Had to go outside to look at the breakfast sign they set out every day.
The food was ok. But very expensive for what we got!
Huevas rancheros was very disappointing. Wasn't good at all. Avocado toast just didn't have much on it. Breakfast burrito was a bit bland. And we also had the pancakes with eggs and bacon, 2 coffees and 2 sunny side up eggs ($2each). Over $70. There are nicer restaurants in the area with better food, great atmosphere and are sit-down that's cheaper than this.
Service was great though. Very friendly.

Shocked and saddened to see CM is no more. It was a great local small business that will be missed. The corporate crap continues to take over Del Mar, booo…
