Gunter's Restaurant

Classic American diner with nostalgic 70s vibe serving hearty homemade corned beef hash and generous breakfast portions.

Gunter's Restaurant has the kind of sprawling comfort-food menu that makes everyone’s craving feel welcome. The South San Francisco restaurant on El Camino Real pairs classic diner breakfasts with burgers, sandwiches, seafood, and hearty entrees. We particularly like the breakfast personality: the Buri Buri Special brings together eggs, ground chuck, spinach, onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes, while the South City omelette adds spicy sausage, ham, vegetables, and Jack cheese. Pancakes, French toast, waffles, and cheese blintzes offer sweeter directions, and the lunch and dinner selection includes a patty melt, chicken-fried steak, and shrimp scampi. It is a useful menu when one person wants eggs and another is thinking about a substantial savory plate. For American comfort food in South San Francisco, Gunter's appeal lies in those familiar dishes and the individual touches that make its breakfast selection especially fun to browse.
