    Fresas con crema ice latte w/oatmilk (left )  Iced sugar free vanilla latte w/oat milk ( right )
    Antonia G.

    This morning I went in for my coffee I ordered over the phone & added on mini pancakes with strawberries . The young girl working today helped me and the the sweetest customer service!! Always enjoy coming here for coffee , a bite to eat or ice cream with the kids !

    S'mores Cookie

    This is my third time eating here while I'm in town and I'm noticing there isn't a consistency in certain areas. The latte & breakfast sandwich always taste different each time. Delicious still, yet inconsistent in flavor profile. I ordered three smores cookie again as well and it was a little on the dry side. I wanted to order a breakfast burrito but there wasn't an option on door dash for just a sausage & egg burrito (without the bacon). I also wish there were more non-pork options for breakfast items. I do appreciate the affordable prices for what's offered though. My most recent order, I tried their Oreo cookie for the first time and wasn't disappointed. It is delicious and I'd definitely order again.

    Ahhhh Nutella crepe with banana and strawberries when I was craving that. Great coffee too! Adorable little cozy store/coffee shop. I was the only customer when I went around noon but I guess more people shop to go or come later. In any case I enjoyed what I got and taking selfies with all these love mini props...so I made my own party. When in the area I will go back. Also the Latin music they play rocks!

    Horchata Latte Cold, 8/10

    Protein breakfast bagel.. yumm!! Have dashed this place a few times, this bagel sandwich is a hit every time. Should I venture out and try something new? Perhaps. Will I? Probably not. However! The husband will and has enjoyed several other bagel and croissant sandwiches, enjoyed all thoroughly. Honorable mention: Sausage bacon egg, cheesy jalapeño bagel, bacon egg cheese croissant. And their horchata latte was 3/5 however, I will try others as this was dashed and a little watered down. Will try this place in person hopefully in the near future to test out their service and location.

    Mini Pancakes

    Everything was absolutely delicious! I had the pesto and egg sandwich, Nutella crepes, mini pancakes & the biscoff cheesecake. The mini pancakes & biscoff cheesecake were my favorite and tasted good after being reheated.

    The guy I think is the owner idk but he always gives the best service out of everyone! I love this place

    Turkey croissant avocado and cucumber great flavor
    Monica P.

    Try it you won't regret it! So many yummy options!! We will for dure eat here again soon. Delicious breakfast, it was served quickly. Small cafe and ice cream shop. Lots of coffee options. We ate: Turkey avocado and cucumber croissant sandwich, fresh and delicious flavor. We will order this again! Nutella strawberry crepe so good and the strawberries were juicy. I had the Mexican mocha and it was so good and had lots of cinnamon. Just the way I like it. I had the best cookie, it is my new favorite Nutella but. Moist and huge with lots of gooey Nutella and big walnuts. Order it! Plus a berry banana smoothie. My picky daughter drank the whole thing! Lots of parking In a strip mall that looks a bit sketchy but a total gem of a restaurant. They also have lots of ice cream and we saw several bagel sandwiches. Seats about 14 people.

    Roach on top of their ice cream bucket

    Came in because of their high rating online, just as I enter I find a dead roach just laying on top of the ice cream bucket. It will have to be a hard pass for me.

    Foods great! Mini pancakes are delish , and some other shakes too ! Ambience is good as well.

    Turkey Avocado Bagel

    Great service, food was ready earlier than expected. It was very clean and my bagel was delicious!

    Croissant ham, egg, cheese and I added avocado.

    Satisfying! I was needing just a simple yummy breakfast croissant sandwich before heading into a very long meeting. Found this place in the area. And it hit the spot. Delicious!

    Freezer burned ice cream cake
    Christine D.

    I so wanted to like this place. I pass by in frequently which would have made it convenient for me. We grabbed a couple pastries to go. Let's start with the chocolate ice cream cake. The ice cream itself was freezer burned. The cake itself was dry and tasted old. The tres leches cake was decent. This place was clean and service was there. I'd skip any desserts and hope the breakfast items are better.

    I was craving crepes so my husband and I looked this place up on Yelp and found cafe amor it's a cute nieveria with a lot of delicious sweets . They even have horchata ! We got a cookie , flan and the cheesecake crepe my husband loves to be Ex-tra sweet and ordered a side of Nutella, everything was delicious it satisfied my sweet tooth, the lady that made our crepe was very welcoming attentive and very nice , thank you!

The restaurant is cute and not too noisy. There is an indoor and outdoor area. SERVICE: We have never had a bad service experience at Toasted. Our waitress today in particular was great. My niece wanted a mimosa without alcohol, and she happily accommodated and even suggested adding some soda water to make it more like a mimosa. FOOD & DRINKS: In the many times we have been there, we have had the following; DRINKS: -Mimosa Flight: Too be honest, I did not love the flight. The Prickly Pear was my favorite, but I tend to prefer sweeter drinks, and I would say overall, the cocktails are not super sweet there, which for many people is a plus (just not me). -Lavender Cocktail - Good but also not super sweet -Chai Latte - I have had it hot and iced and liked it both ways FOOD: -Santa Fe Scramble - My favorite dish I have tried to date. Our waitress compared it to tortilla soup in an egg dish, and I would say that's a new perfect description except I think this is way better than tortilla soup -Denver Scramble - Very good and would order again -Breakfast Sammy - Good. A typical breakfast sandwich, so if that's what you're in the mood for, get this. That being said, I wouldn't say there is anything that sets this breakfast sandwich apart from others. -Stuffed French Toast - Good but not my favorite. Would not order again. -Fried Chicken Benny - Good but not a standout that I would order again -Breakfast Quesadilla - Just okay. Nothing was wrong with it, but I would not get it again and would do the Santa Fe Scramble over this. -Sliders - My favorite lunch item. They are the same as the old Sammy's sliders (this location used to be a Sammy's) -Red Velvet Pancakes - Good but very rich -Chocolate Chip Pancakes - Great and very fluffy with excellent texture Overall, even though not every food item or drink is a hit for me personally, that's the case at pretty much any restaurant, and there are some great items and the food, service, and ambiance are great

    Great bottomless service, our waitress filled up my glass as I drank which was amazing lol. I…read moreordered the chicken and pancakes which all together I rate a 6.5/10. - Comes with 3 THICK pancakes and three southern fried chicken tender with "hot" syrup. - Syrup tasted like regular syrup mixed with hot sauce which I wasn't really feelin. I think it would've been better with hot honey and syrup on the side? - Again these pancakes are THICK and flavor was "meh" so you prolly won't even finish them all and you might need to ask for extra syrup (like myself) I honestly think the chicken and French toast would've been a better option and I might ask for that accommodation next time if I order the same thing (I prolly won't, I like to try new tings hehe). Overall pretty restaurant with great natural Lighting but it still needs to prove itself in the flavor department.

The highlight for me was building my own bowl with the freshest ingredients: baby spinach, baby arugula, hot honey chicken, pickled cabbage, tomato, pickled cucumbers, and avocado. The hot honey lemon vinaigrette was perfect--delicious with just the right balance of heat and sweetness. I also tasted the chilaquiles verde, which were absolutely delicious--fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right. Overall, everything tasted incredibly fresh and well-prepared.

As soon as we walked in, I loved the vibe, from the wooden walls, to the pictures hanging in the bathroom, to the hanging indoor plants. However, Madi fell short in their service and food. We were told to wait 30 minutes for our table. Ended up only being 20 which was a nice surprise! However, as soon as we sat down, we were not welcomed in, no one to explain the menu, no one to offer water, and no one to even take our order. And when we finished, no one to offer the bill, and to-go boxes were all self-serve. Just seemed like there was no urgency! Everytime we needed something, we had to flag someone down, which even that took some effort. Automatic 4% Hospitality charge too. The food was fine with some unique flavor combinations. My G.O.A.T sandwich came with a wonderful sticky and spicy jam, but overall it was slightly dry and bready, the swiss cheese could have been meltier, and the egg yolk was already broken. The Greek Fries came with a bold tahini sauce, but even then, the chicken was dry and the fries were not crispy at all, but floppy, soggy, and chewy. Maybe we came on a bad day. Maybe we just ordered the wrong things. But I really am trying to give Madi the chance it obviously deserves!

The ONLY reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 (and I'm usually a 5-star/1-star girlie) is that we haven't seen Cari, one of our favorite servers, in either of our last couple of visits. Over a year ago now, Cari stepped UP when I became faint and almost passed out on Nate's front deck. It was a hot day, I am BAD at drinking water but great at sweating; and as I stood up, I turned paper white and the world got fuzzy. Cari swooped in the moment she saw what was happening - making sure I was safely lying down, getting me hand sanitizer for my forehead and a wet cloth for the back of my neck (rapid cooling!), and orange juice for my fluid imbalance. I'm so SO glad Cari was there to take better care of me than I take of myself. I miss our nerdy conversations, and hope she'll be back soon!

The service was friendly and efficient, and the portions were HUGE! I loved how they had a whole menu page dedicated to Mexican breakfast, which is probably my favorite to order when I'm eating out. I had Baja-style eggs with beans and homemade tortillas, plus a cup of cafe de olla. SO good!! A couple of my friends split the largest breakfast burrito I'd ever seen, and everyone who ordered pancakes said they were really good. Note: the silver dollar pancakes here are like regular-sized pancakes, and the regular pancakes are gigantic. I definitely recommend splitting plates if possible, or planning to take home leftovers. Our servers took good care of our party of nine, even when we wanted to split checks individually. Somehow my cafe de olla got left off the bill completely, and when I told the server, she just smiled and said, "don't worry about it." So I made sure to tip a little extra! I liked how the menu also featured the family's story of coming to San Diego and starting the restaurant, and how it's stayed in the family for a couple generations now. That made me feel more connected and like I wanted to support them. I'll definitely return if I'm in the area for breakfast or brunch again, and maybe make a special trip for it!
