    Mimosa flight
    Kirsten K.

    Wow!!! 2 pancakes (gluten free upcharge) 3 strips of bacon and a cuppa hot tea, over $30! I was so shocked!! There was definitely a cheaper option that the waiter didn't even attempt to tell me about. We have at least a quarterly breakfast with friends, but we may need to find somewhere else; outrageous. However, the waiter Jaehn was friendly and got our orders right and split our checks.

    Mama Omelette
    Suzie A.

    We are from out of town, so our daughter's in-laws suggested here for brunch. Located in a mall-type parking lot it was easy to find with proper signage out front. Located near Daiso. Plenty of free outdoor parking. Walked around to the front and as expected it was busy on a Saturday around 11:00 am. But with no reservation we got a table for four by the window. Busboy came by right away bringing us water, utensils, and our server was so cool when hubby ordered a Bloody Mary explaining that they don't have a liquor license so it's not made with vodka - they use rice wine instead. He still decided to try it and it was a perfect blend not too spicy but we could understand why she explained to us because certain Bloody Mary connoisseurs might have balked. We appreciated that. I ordered the "Mama" omelette with the fruit salad and biscuit on the side (it all came with). This is a Vegetarian omelette with lots of fresh ingredients. Delicious and perfectly prepared no need salt or pepper. Fresh fruit cup included blackberries, watermelon, cantaloupe and pineapple. Biscuit was excellent too. Coffee was good and water kept refilled by attentive bus staff. It's a fun atmosphere with not too loud ambiance and workers were friendly and happy! A good vibe all around and reasonably priced walking out with a full tummy!

    We had brunch a couple weeks ago here, and despite waking up at a godless hour on a Saturday to sling Girl Scout cookies, our server, Jaehn, set a beautiful tone for the rest of the day. He made thoughtful recommendations, was great with the kids, and kept up a fantastic humor with a tired mom's banter. Thanks for making a rare meal out so enjoyable, Jaehn! (Took me forever to do, but I didn't forget you )

    First time to eat here with my family. The host is very polite. Will definitely try other branches to try other food in the menu.

    Meat Lover's Omelet
    Lisa G.

    We like coming to Broken Yolk. We frequent either this location or the Carmel Mountain one. We never had a problem with parking. Going on the waitlist is very helpful for us we arrive right in time to get seated and not have to wait. The most waiting we've done is for the waitress/waiters - whom are super busy during the weekends. We usually go for the Meat Lover Skillet or the Meat Lovers Omelet. Their portion sizes have always been so hearty and filling for my husband. And quite filling for me while I'm pregnant. The omelettes are huge and filling. Staff has always been nice when checking us in, seating us, and taking our order.

    Steel Cut Oats!
    Jason H.

    Terrific food! Outstanding service! The Steel Cut Oatmeal had good texture, with plenty of blueberries, strawberries, and slivered almonds. I don't know why, but it was lukewarm, not hot -- and it came out first. Odd. The Avocado Toast was simple, but very well done with lots and lots of avocado. The poached eggs on top were perfect -- not an easy feat! The Mom Omelette was hearty, to be sure and very nicely done. It's a big portion -- almost shareable. Ample shopping center parking out front. We'll be back!

Recently, I found myself in San Marcos and decided to give it another shot at this location and I'm so glad I did! I've been back a few times now, and every visit has been great. The shop is in a convenient shopping center with plenty of parking, which is always a plus. It's a small, cozy spot with a really cute setup. Each time I've gone, it's been the same person working, and he's always incredibly friendly and welcoming, which makes a big difference. I've tried a few different coffee drinks, and every single one has been delicious although the Mazapan Latte is my absolute favorite! Definitely a must try. The combination of great service and consistently amazing coffee is exactly why I keep coming back. Definitely worth checking out and making the drive since I'm in Carlsbad.

I'm not sure of their name but I believe they work in the kitchen/back, but they don't act like it. Whenever I come in and this person is working I know almost immediately, either by the way they incessantly hover over the poor workers at the front or if I'm getting gypped in my food portions. I understand how stressful a morning rush can be at a small cafe, but I wouldn't call it an excuse for having my meal come out half assed. I've come in during hectic hours on different occasions and not once has my food come out quite as poor. There was one instance when my avocado toast looked like the avocado had barely coughed on the toast. I can't imagine how hard it is on everyone else to have to work with this person as I've had a pleasant experience every other time. The gamble of going in with the chance this person is working is making it not worth it at this point.

We entered and was greeted by friendly faces. I tried their salmon toast and the kids tried their sweet crepe. All very yummy. My husband got something with bacon and eggs on top of hash browns and that was equally delicious. I think this place is better suited to come with a friend or two. Not a huge area for sitting so if you're looking for a place for a large group, you might want to try a different place. Saying that, its such a cute place to meet up with a friend or two or even a casual date. :) I havent tried their coffee, but a lit of people were order them. Next time I'll have to try some.

The pastries are definitely on the higher-priced side and we weren't too hungry, so we opted for the strawberry croissant since it was the last one left. I was hoping to try their cinnamon roll, as it looked amazing and had a selection of flavors to pick from. The lady who helped us was friendly and packed the croissant for me, and we took it to go. The strawberry croissant had some vanilla cream along with strawberry slices in the center cut of the croissant. The cream was nice, light, and not overly sweet, which tasted great with the strawberry. The croissant was a little disappointing, as it wasn't flaky, very dense, and on the softer side. It still had a good buttery flavor but overall it was mid. As we continued eating, I ended up chewing on something plasticky, and I believe it might have been the front cut of a plastic piping bag. I'm glad it was a fairly small piece or else I probably would have swallowed it...It is disappointing that a big piece of plastic ended up in the cream where no one had caught it during the process of making it.
