    I grew up in San Diego, but moved to Los Angeles in 2020. I grew up going to the original Broken Yolk location in Pacific Beach, which opened in 1979 and was sad to see that when I left San Diego there are not many Broken Yolk locations close to me in West LA. This is actually the closest one. This BY is a giant one and located right across the street from Knotts Berry Farm. Parking is also extremely easy. There is a giant free parking lot attached on site. Service was very friendly and as usual everything that we ordered came out very fast. As mentioned this place is gigantic so it can host many different sized groups. For this visit, I did one of my favorites, which is the Build Your Own Omelette, but I also enjoy doing the Eggs Benedict and many other different dishes. I think this is one of the best breakfast and brunch options in Southern California and I look for it every time that I travel. I love seeing a San Diego restaurant outside of my hometown. I would highly recommend to anyone and everyone.

    Chilaquiles Bowl with Red and Green Sauce

    Met some of my friends here for a brunch. Good noise level and cute art on the wall. Two of us wanted chilaquiles and were looking at the small lunch portion. We said that we were starving and could eat a lot, so our waiter, Evelio, talked us into the normal bowl. Thankfully he did, I may have still been hungry after. The food tasted amazing and the service by him was great. We'll definitely come back soon!

    Today's brunch was absolutely delicious. Megan was so sweet and funny as she kindly answered our questions and helped us pick our favorite dishes. There was plenty of space in their huge dining room as the Knott's crowd probably hadn't come in yet. Our omelets, crepes, açaí bowls, and chicken fried steak were amazing and looked picture perfect. Thank you Broken Yolk.

    Chicken & Waffle Benedict

    Came here in my visit to California for Junior Olympics. Service was great, didn't wait long for the food. Food wasn't too bad. Only thing is you have to eat it fast because the waffle gets soggy. I added syrup because I felt something was missing. But overall this was a good breakfast spot

    Broken Yolk Cafe in Buena Park a must see!!!

    We took our daughter to the Broken Yolk Cafe across the street from Knott's Berry Farm in our city of Buena Park and she had a blast The ambiance was lively and the staff was amazingly friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. There are so many food selections for Sunday Brunch and it was so hard to pick. The menu had so many choices but we started out with the champagne flights and other drinks She enjoyed the SOPE BENEDICT- Fried sopes with shredded beef, poached eggs, ranchero sauce, avocado, Cotija cheese, salsa fresca, cilantro and sour cream yummy I had the STEEL-CUT OATS-Slow-cooked oats topped with strawberries, blueberries, sliced almonds and organic agave, so good My husband enjoyed the MEAT LOVER omelette Bacon, ham, sausage, pepper Jack cheese, green onion, he loved it! And our grandson enjoyed the CHOCOLATE CHIP PANCAKES Fluffy, golden buttermilk pancakes with baked-in chocolate chips. Topped with more chocolate chips and which are made to order and we order additional food because my daughter Shara the birthday girl wanted to try the BORDER BENEDICT- Sweet corn cakes topped with carne asada, poached eggs, fresh jalapenos and our signature housemade poblano sauce, we couldn't believe it she ate both her Benedict orders, plus a side of hash browns and bacon It was all delicious and our waiter was great he had outstanding service and should be applauding for his excellent customer service. They also have a beautiful young lady going around doing balloon arrangements for the kids and some adults to which was fun She made our grandson a sword and our daughter Shara crown for the queen's birthday celebration We will definitely be back again because it's a great place to spend time with family or friends over a great meal. Thank you for outstanding service with a fabulous attitude we appreciate it!!!

    Mimosa flight

    Can't go wrong with a good brunch spot! They have a large variety of brunch options from eggs Benedict, classic breakfast, pancakes, to lunch options such as burgers, salads, and soups. They also have a wide drink offering from coffee selections, smoothies, to of course mimosa flights! I got the golden state Benedict which was my favorite combination of bacon, avocado, tomato, and poached egg. I did ask for the sriracha on the side so I can control how much I get in each bite & it was delicious! They offer both indoor and outdoor seating. Overall, large clean open space with a modern feel to it. Our server was friendly and the service was fairly quick despite it being packed when I went. There is parking in front of the restaurant but it can get filled up really quickly during peak brunch hours!

    Tina T.

    Came here on a Saturday morning at 11am. The parking lot is pretty tight and hard to find parking. We ended up parking elsewhere and walked. We were able to add ourselves on the Yelp Waitlist so that was helpful! Food and service were good. The Machaca was pretty good and the breakfast trio I tried came with a tiki toast, French toast, and cinnamon pancake. Yum!

    Churro French Toast and Ranchero Skillet
    Leslie C.

    Broken Yolk Cafe is my favorite brunch place that has me thinking about it days and months after! Parking lot is packed when its busy. The wait is usually short if there is any at all even when busy. There is both booth and table seating available. The churro french toast is unlike anything else out of all the brunch places I've been to. It's the fluffiest and sweetest. The cream cheese icing is amazing with the cinnamon and sugar. The whip cream starts sliding off since the toast comes out hot, but it definitely pairs well with the icing, syrup, and french toast. The ranchero skillet comes with sauteed potatoes and egg on top. It was a good size for singular brunch or sharing! The french toast qualifies to be the best I've ever had. Absolutely unforgettable and on the top of my brunch favorites!

    Chicken & Waffle Benedict
    Nikki S.

    Went with my niece and her boyfriend to the broken yolk in Buena Park today and it didn't disappoint for a second time. Sat in the outside patio where we were seated very quickly. Alonzo took care of our drinks and our order right away with a smile. Combo of Classic Eggs Benedict with Salmon and Arugula it was fresh and very tasty. Mike had the chicken and waffles, Jen enjoyed the Border Benedict. Always nice to have a great server with great food. See you next time!

    Can we bring a cake for a birthday celebration?

    I would be a bit surprised if you could, it doesn't seem to be that type of place. However, if you call ahead and ask I'm sure they might allow it.

    Do you have bottomless mimosas?

    Hi Jenevie, We do not offer bottomless mimosas, but check out our amazing mimosa flight and Bloody Mary flight!

    Coke or Pepsi?

    Hi Jon, We carry Pepsi products.

    Do they take reservations?

    Walk ins

    Is this location dog friendly? like their other locations?

    I called the restaurant to ask if I could bring my large dog, and the host who replied said their patio is dog friendly.

    After a fun day at Knott's Berry Farm, my wife and I decided to get dinner before hitting the road…read more The criteria were good eats, a varied beer selection, a decent atmosphere, and hopefully some novelty. Rock and Brews exceeded each category and came in clutch with some bonuses! First, and most importantly, the food was absolutely delicious! I had tacos, which were discounted for Taco Tuesday and allowed for a mix-and-match of chicken, beef, or pork. My wife had the Mediterranean salad, which she thoroughly enjoyed. We also shared a pretzel that was mega yummy. Second, beer! Lots of great choices, and if you prefer a mixed spirit, well, you're in luck, because they have plenty of those too. Third, vibes! Vibes like Cal Tjader came back to life. The place is decked out like your coolest friend won the lottery and created the perfect spot for all of his Rock & Roll lovin' homies to hang and chill. It is hard to pull off this level of focus without being a complete visual disaster or downright tawdry. Luckily for them, the designer understood the assignment. Well done, designer. You deserve a raise. Now, obviously, I'm a fan. One visit. That's all it took. But even after all of that goodness, there is one thing I must share, because it made a good experience a great one, and that thing is not even a thing; it was Matthew! Brother, thank you for being so kind and attentive. You are very talented, and without question, the quality of our experience is directly linked to your professionalism. I get the impression that no matter where you go, or what you do, the Force is always strong with you. Let's give Matt a raise too! And make him manager when you open the San Diego location.

They were tasty, too, but I can always appreciate a good looking burger that doesn't fall over after they place it on the table. I had the super spicy one and it kicked my bum. I can't hang like the old days. Very fun eating experience though, and I was able to finish every single scoville. Waiter was helpful with customizing (bread swap). French fries were fine. Will be back, even if it's just to get a bottle of their hot sauce . Only real gripe is that this place looks and feels like a sports bar/restaurant, it has over a dozen TVs... But the same thing was on ALL the TVs ! I understand the music theme is central appeal, but at least have different (variety) music videos on if you're gonna have 30 TVs in your restaurant. Make it interesting

Everything was really good. The food was solid, and the pricing felt fair for today's world--not cheap, but not outrageous either. Honestly, since it's inside a hotel, my expectations weren't sky-high, but the food pleasantly surprised me. I'd definitely come back, especially to try their brunch. The reason it's four stars instead of five comes down to the atmosphere and staffing. The restaurant sits right in the hotel lobby with no walls, so you hear everything--hotel guests coming and going, music playing in the lobby, the TV from the bar, and general foot traffic. If you're looking for a quiet, relaxed dinner, this might feel a little overstimulating. Also, our waiter (who was great, by the way) seemed to be doing the job of about three people. He was taking orders, bringing drinks and food, running payments, and even delivering room service. The poor guy was working like he owed the hotel money. On a Friday night, they could definitely use more staff. That said, the food was good, the service was kind, and I'd still come back--next time probably for brunch.
