Marissa our server was nice and offered suggestions which I loved because we, a party of four wanted to try everything. The vibe was very nice. It was busy but not chaotic. The washroom is very nice and spacious and good mirror ladies, wink, wink. The food was amazing. The flavors, the presentation and the taste was 10 out of 10. We had favorites and of course but overall a good brunch spot and low key worth the hour plus wait. The staff was pleasant and smiled walking by and someone came with tab on wait time for food and the price point is excellent. This place has screened in patio seating, main dining area and a bar and still seemed comfortable and cozy. This place is definitely worth the hype!

The Toasted Yolk gave us a little bit of everything--some hits, some misses, and one bartender who…read moremay have found a new calling. Avocado Toast Let's start with what should be one of the easiest breakfast items on any menu. Avocado toast doesn't need much--fresh avocado, a squeeze of lemon or lime, cracked pepper, sea salt, roasted tomatoes, cilantro, and a little love. Unfortunately, mine arrived with chunky raw onions, a few tomatoes, and not much else. The bright flavors that make avocado toast shine were missing. The sourdough bread, however, was perfectly toasted and had a great texture. Eggs Both dishes were ordered with eggs cooked over hard. Both arrived over easy. That's a simple request that should have been easy to execute. Salmon Benedict Presentation was nice, but the seasoning department apparently took the morning off. Salmon naturally has great flavor, but it still needs something. A squeeze of lemon, a touch of cracked pepper, sea salt, fresh herbs--anything. The salmon was bland, and the hash brown casserole followed the same theme. Breakfast Potatoes We ordered potatoes with grilled onions and received potatoes topped with the same chunky raw onions that appeared on the avocado toast. Not exactly what was expected. Now for the stars of the show... the drinks. The Mimosa was delicious, refreshing, and exactly what brunch should be. The Sidecar deserves special recognition. When the bartender admitted they had to Google how to make it, I became a little nervous. Turns out I had no reason to be. That Sidecar was fantastic and easily the best thing that hit our table all morning. Whoever made it absolutely knocked it out of the park. Final Verdict The Toasted Yolk has potential, but the kitchen needs to become friends with seasoning. The ingredients were there; the flavor was not. A few simple additions--lemon, pepper, salt, herbs, and attention to cooking eggs correctly--would have dramatically improved the experience. Will I return? Yes. The drinks were excellent, the atmosphere was pleasant, and there's enough on the menu to give it another chance. Next visit, I'll be ordering something different and hoping the kitchen brings a little more flavor to the table.

The menu was front and back simple with breakfast items and small section for lunch. Breakfast is their main menu meal. I had coffee and ordered the Belgian waffle that came with fruit and whip topping. The coffee was piping hot anso delicious you can drink it straight. The waffle looked good just was not hot and skimpy on the fruit and whipped topping. It had a nice crispy taste and flavor and was really good just not hot when it arrived. Caroline was my waitress and she had such a pleasant smile and disposition. A very personal person. The way she took care of her customers you could tell she enjoyed her job. She brought me my bill and there was a Big Bad Breakfast postcard attached. Nice touch. Excellent service. I got a coffee to go and it was hot and freshly brewed. The tables were cleaned after each customer, sprayed down, chairs pushed in , tables straightened and fresh silverware placed. Check the time before you go but this is a great place to eat.

VERY DISAPPOINTING....THE WAITER SAID SHE WAS GOING TO CALL THE POLICE.... SO WE WAITED FOR THE…read morePOLICE TO COME....PLEASE READ WHAT LED UP TO THIS.....THIS PLACE HAS CHANGED....I suggested the place because I have always enjoyed the food, atmosphere and customer service. I was so disappointed when my acai bowl came out watery, with a chuck of what appeared to be a round piece of frozen blueberry puree on top, and mostly granolas.... My protein pancakes came out warm in the center cold around the outside and stuck together...Not good at all. So disappointing. But since I suggested it to my friend, I was going to press through and endure it. However, my friend ordered scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuit and breakfast potatoes. Sadly to say, the biscuit came out cold, heavy, with the bottom discolored and soaked in grease, totally inedible. The eggs were luke-warm at best. The bacon was cold, and look like it had been sitting up for a while, you can see that the grease had settled into the meat. When the server returned, I shared with her that my friend's biscuit and bacon was cold. She said let her ask the kitchen and see what they can do. We waited, and waited, she never came back. I went in and asked for assistants and was told our waiter had other customers that came in that she had seat. So, I express to this young lady, (whom name I will not mention, because she may have just been having a bad day this Friday..... She said, it could not be cold and could not see how it came out cold because she (our waiter) brought it out as soon as the kitchen placed it in the window. We asked her to look at the biscuit and the bacon, we even asked her to just feel it, she said she did not want to touch our food. We told her this is not our food, we cannot eat this like this...so you can touch it to confirm the temperature. She said, look its Friday...I can get another biscuit and bacon from the kitchen. I asked for fresh biscuit and bacon. She said there is a difference between fresh and hot, she can get us a hot biscuit and bacon, but they opened at 6:30am. I said ma'am, what does that have to do with receiving fresh and hot food, I understand what time the restaurant opens, but its only 8:23am now. She said let her go and get another biscuit and bacon from the kitchen. We waited, and we waited for at least another 12 to 15 minutes. I walked over to ask another server for the young lady that was assisting us, then I saw her walking towards the patio where we were seated with a plate, I walked over to meet her to see that it was another saggy biscuit and two pieces of bacon as if it was thrown into hot grease and fried. I said, ma'am I am so sorry, but we cannot eat this food. Please just take it all back. She said she can not. This is the food we ordered, she can box it up and we can take it with us, but we will have to pay for it. I said, no ma'am we are not paying for food that will only go into the garbage. She told us, that if we did not pay for it she would have to call the police, and get the proper authorities here to let them handle it. We said okay, call them, we will sit right here until they come. And we sat and we waited.... She came back out and said, I have your receipt. I said ma'am respectfully, we can not eat this and we cannot pay for this. She said since yawl not going to pay, I need to take your name and number. So I gave her my real name and my real number, and expressed that I look forward to the call and I hope she have a good Friday and a great weekend. We left... and have committed to not come back to this restaurant. So sad, and I hope it turns things around because it is not going in a positive direction...So sad....
