My bacon omelet with homefries was bland. The waitress forgot my muffin. All this might be forgivable if not for the insanely high prices. Mesa isn't San Diego and the prices here are out of line compared to similar breakfast joints in the area. Honestly, the food, service and prices are better at Village Inn or iHop. read more

After hearing numerous people rave about this place, I was excited to try this place. So I met my best friend for breakfast on a Friday morning. It wasn't busy, but I waited in the lobby for a hostess (or even some sort of acknowledgment) by was ignored for quite a while. From what I witnessed, they tend to cater to the regulars there as people just walked past me and sat down while waving hi to the waitress. I finally got seated while waiting for my friend and was served coffee right away...and that's pretty much the only cup I got after several requests for refills and even the waitress saying she was coming back with refills (which she didn't until we were finished with our meal). There was a manager serving coffee left and right, but only to the table of regulars. The food was okay at best, more like an over-priced Denny's and it was lukewarm and bland. I'm really disappointed after hearing such good things about this place. I think I'll stick with my other breakfast places and won't be back. read more

I went in to simply pick up a to-go order and was pleasantly surprised at the experience it turned into. From the very beginning, Chelsea was amazing. She was extremely patient while I placed my order, and once I arrived she made the pick up process a breeze. I had to wait a few extra minutes due to a minor kitchen issue but, Chelsea made sure I had the drink I ordered and even offered me a refill before leaving. I will definitely be back! read more

This place makes a good breakfast. I stopped here when I was in the area and I'm glad I did. Thank you!

Came here for breakfast good portions!Food good coffee lukewarm. Our waitress great! We were enjoying our breakfast when a party of 4 came in.The one female in the group very loud. I didn't finish my food got to go box and the other person in my group walked out because of noise. Told the general manager and he said we could have moved, why should we have to move, we were there 1st? He said they sounded like they were having fun? Normal conversation voices I get, but this girl was loud and obnoxious even after a guy in her party said sorry. Also not proper social distancing from our table to their table, as she was extremely loud, sure spit etc.flying! Feel the young General Manager accommodating these younger folks, as my party, we are middle aged. read more

Sorry to say After reading the reviews I expected this place to be Awesome different It was a little disappointing! It was like going to DENNYS all the same (generic) nothing to rave about!! Maybe it was an off day for the chef :/ I like to give a place 3 changes (give them the Benefit of the doubt) will try again I hope it's better next time around!! I had Chorizo and eggs (IT WAS JUST LIKE I MAKE THEM AT HOME) NO WOW FACTOR NO SPECTACULAR FLAVOR simple it was disappointing waffles same!! read more

Hi all, I visited this location yesterday and the establishment is very nice the staff is very attentive, the (1) owner came over to my table and had a conversation with me. Sooooo I wish I could say the same about the food, this has got to be one of my most regrettable reviews because I like the place, but I just wouldn't go back for the food, personal opinion is that the food is rushed out to the table. I would rather wait for a late good meal than a hurried undone meal so I can complain. My advice is...please talk to your cooks, I think with the corrections your establishment would be great. read more

We love trying out new restaurants! It took us a little bit of time to finally get over to the Broken Yolk Cafe as we have a new little one. This place was just average.... Disappointed after knowing it came from Southern California. The food was fine but nothing spectacular, we had the fiesta burrito and traditional eggs Benedict. With the prices it would have needed to be just a little bit more wonderful than average. My husband had a coffee which they tried to fill every 2 minutes. I had a water which I could only get refilled if I asked. I made my husband get a water just so I could drink the mini glass. For the price I would recommend hitting up biscuits or liberty market. We likely won't go back. read more

Wow!!! What an amazing place! The food is way too much! My husband and I always split! The price is amazing and the service is awesome!! Give them a try and I guarantee you will not be disappointed! Tip your waitress they are worth it! Also doesn't hurt to let the chef know how amazing the food is! read more

This is the third time in less than a week that we have eaten at the Broken Yolk. The food and service has always been top of the line. Our second visit we were a party of nine. We received the same fast friendly service like we received when we were a party of two. Our server Juli was friendly and prompt keeping our drinks filled. :) The owners Jim and Jennifer are always around to offer friendly smiles and heartfelt friendship. They treat you like family. If you haven't eaten here you must give this place a try. Plenty of parking. They can handle large parties. They don't have call ahead seating but for large parties of 10 or more please call. read more

I am so glad we tried this place for breakfast. On a Sunday morning at 9:00am, we were able to find a table for 6 with no wait. 10 min later the restaurant was absolutely full and there were no tables available and people were waiting in line. Despite the place being absolutely packed, the service was very good. Our server made sure she checked if we needed more coffee or drinks while we waited for our food. We ordered many different dishes of the menu and requested slight changes to them, this did not slow down the service nor did any thing come out incorrect. The food was delicious!! Every dish that came to the table was done perfectly. Portion was quite big but it was so good we were able to finish our plates. The prices are very reasonable considering the quality of the food and the portion size. I am so pleased with this place I cannot wait for the next time we're off and can go there for breakfast! Would love to try other menu options next time. Highly recommended! read more

Awful... the quality was gross! The vegetables in my omelette were frozen, the "home fries" were mushy, resembling mashed potatoes. The blueberry muffin tasted like something I would buy at Circle K. Yah, the portions are huge, but if the food is terrible, who cares how much you get, I left it on my plate! Don't think I even want to try lunch here.... read more

Good place for breakfast with lots of southwestern options. Friendly staff that really went out their way when the restaurant was really busy to to cater to a family members special requests. I really like some of the "spicy" dishes that actually had a lot more heat than what I expected from a restaurant that from appearances would cater to a crowd that would not be into that much heat. read more

We had a large party and the service was great! All of the food looks outstanding! I ordered the Tiki Toast- wow was it good! I would recommend going here for breakfast! read more

My wife and I have watched as several breakfast restaurants in that location have shut down, so we weren't that hopeful that this restaurant would survive. It seems as if it's not only surviving now, but thriving. We had a coupon, so we decided to give it a try. The food there is excellent, but the most amazing thing is the portion size. Huge omelets with lots of potatoes. The fresh fruit on the side was a generous portion of grapes, cantaloupe and pineapple. My wife had the waffle sandwich and loved it. The server was polite and efficient. We will definitely be back! read more

My husband and I decided to try this place since we're always happy to see a new breakfast place in the area. They've redone the space (what used to be The Egg and I), and the inside looks very nice and comfy. I especially liked that they put up some window shades since the sun can beam pretty bright during those early mornings. There is a good-sized menu with a variety of options. The prices are not super cheap, but I think it's about what you'd expect. The food was decent. I had the Egg Benedict, and while the sauce was delicious, the egg was a little bit overdone. No runny yolk on this one. Regardless, it was still good enough that I'll give it another chance (the closeness to our house might play a part in that decision). The hubby had Country Fried Steak and Eggs, and while it wasn't mind-blowing, he was satisfied with the taste and portion. The service was friendly and attentive. Will this place be an once-in-a-lifetime culinary experience? Probably not. But I am inclined to come back and try other items. (The ladies by us had their lunch wraps, and they were HUGE.) read more

We love this place, best breakfast in town. The California omelette is the best. Service is great and everyone is so nice We will be going back real soon!!! read more

Great breakfast / lunch place . Breakfast was excellent. Tyler our server was on top of his game. Accommodated all our needs down to switching out the fruit our grad daughter did not like to strawberries and bananas. read more

Started off pretty bad. Got seated quickly, then waited. And waited. And waited. Finally a server came up, I think she heard us talking about where our server was. She came up and asked us if Gina had helped us yet. We said no, so she took out drink order (water) and we ordered our food. Wife ordered the savory crepes, and I ordered the basic two egg breakfast. Meanwhile, two different guests had already been served their drinks and or food, mind you they got there after us. We still just waited, while watching people eat and drink away. Our water came out, maybe 5-7 minutes after we ordered it. Our food finally came out, and we thought our plates looked nice and full, other than my wife's crepes having almost no cojita cheese sprinkled on it. My food, pretty good, she took a few bites, and I could see the look on her face. The crepe batter is sweet, like really sweet. Not what one expects when ordering savory crepes. Yuck!! Two bites in, she drops her fork, nope no way, nada. Our server, bless her, because she was probably covering our table because Gina neglected us, visited us once. I made eye contact a couple times, but both times she was running to the large banquet room behind us. We eventually just got up and walked to the front, and there our server was. She said they were table 21 I believe. No one asked how our food was just told me the total. Bottom line, some of the worst food flavor/service we have received at a restaurant. We were hoping for a nice alternative to Black Bear...nope. You guys need to work on some things. I'm sure there are people who have received good service here. Maybe we just happened to sit in the Bermuda Triangle of the restaurant. Maybe it was just the wrong time to be there. I don't know. Not going to be a "regular" here. There are plenty of other options, especially Black Bear, where the wait is long to be seated, but at least we will get served proper, and have good edible food. Take this review for what it is, one experience out of many, but a very bad experience at that. read more

Asked for a vegan version of the fiesta burrito (specifically no egg, cheese,bacon, or s. Cream-sub potatoes & ref beans) -got one with eggs and no beans. Was a takeout order so basically spent $20 on a breakfast I couldn't eat. Very dissatisfied. read more

This place was meh - got takeout but it was just ok. Probably won't return even though customer service was good.

Very good service, the food was excellent. By far the best Breakfast we had! Definitely recommend!!

First of all my server was crappy, her name is Amanda A. In Arizona and decided to stop by for a quick breakfast since there is one in CALI by my house. This is my second time here this week, first time was for lunch and it was OK. I am now here for breakfast and the same server is here. She needs to be a lot friendlier, she has that resting b*tch face or just always in a crappy mood. If you are going to be a server, work on your personality to serve your clients. I got an orange juice which is yummy, you can't go wrong with OJ and a short stack of blueberry pancakes. They were nothing special and the berries were not fresh, they weren't even blue! I politely asked the server if they were fresh and she had the nerve to walk to the kitchen and yell at her cooks if they were fresh. I could hear her from my seat! Rude. I wish I had a good camera where I cab take a picture of these "fresh" blueberries. I'm seriously so disgusted now. Overall my experience was mediocre, only reason why I came here again was because it's close to my destination and didn't feel like driving around look for good breakfast. read more

The breakfast I had here is great! I built my own omelet with tomatoes, mushrooms, and pork sausage with pepper jack cheese. It was well portioned (4 eggs) and the hash browns were excellent. They even added a fresh baked blueberry muffin. All in all, good food for the money spent! read more

Food was delicious, but $38 for breakfast for 2 was ridiculous. None of the breakfasts came with a side of pancakes, so either adding that or a side of hash browns or bacon, and next thing you know, $38. There are other places just as good and a lot more reasonably priced. read more

This place is absolutely delicious. I ordered the sweet potatoe pancakes along with turkey patties and egg whites. Bomb!

Come and relax. Friday morning the place was not overly full, server was prompt and attentive. The golden state Benedict was Devine. Kids meals had plenty of options and variety. The tvs on the walls make it enjoyable to sit and relax and zone for a few, even after your meal. as long as the kids are entertained you can stay a while for sure - blessing their liquor license and the mimosas this could be an all day thing (which sadly I did not try but looked delicious). read more

Below average, at best. Unappetizing presentation of food, as well. Disappointed considering the reviews.

Been here several times, and I'm never disappointed. Their ingredients are fresh. The vegetables taste like they're fresh not frozen. The eggs taste freshly cracked not like the processed eggs from the carton that most restaurants use. Even the coffee is good and strong! I've had different servers each time and each has been friendly and attentive. The managers come by each visit to check in too. read more

The food was amazing. It was prepared as if I it made at home. They serve large portions. Loved their waffles!!!! The only reason I'm giving four stars is... We had to flag down someone for our silverware, Asked for lemons and something else other than that our experiences was awesome. We will be returning for the food, I'm sure they were really busy when we couldn't get our stuff. read more

I have being wanting to give this place a try for a while and was finally able to go on a Saturday morning. First off we waited about 10 minutes while seated before anyone came to take our drink order. We tried the OJ which was good, but not worth the almost $7 for a half carafe. The service once it arrived was good though. The food- Two meals were ordered. The Mom omelet: This was ordered with hash browns and an English muffin. When brought out the omelet was missing the salsa that was supposed to top it. However, they did bring me some after I questioned it. The hash browns were not salted which was disappointing that they missed such a basic thing. After I added my own salt they were good, but nothing special. The omelet was OK, I didn't realize this omelet had no cheese, otherwise I would have added it. That was my mistake. The serving size was large, but the filling inside was over powered by a lot of onions, partially cooked. The English muffin was fine, but again nothing special. The Border Benedict: This was ordered with home fries, again they were not salted. After adding salt they were again OK but nothing special. The benedict itself was flavorful, the green sauce was yummy but the meat was a bit over cooked and chewy. I probably won't return as I feel I can get much better breakfast elsewhere and cheaper. read more

This place is unbelievable! It is definitely not like every other breakfast place! It's fast and good and the food always looks epic when it comes out! They messed up my order once but it happens! I have still gone back many times! Loveee it! read more
