Love the set up. You dont have to wait until somebody comes takes your order... you make line order, take a # and they take it to you. Kinda like a fast food restaurant vibe. Food was delicious, and the staff was all friendly and professional.

I am always team everyday eatery. Love that they serve breakfast all day. Their coffee is also delicious. Their seating can be very busy for the weekend crowd and the during the week crowd with offices nearby. They do have a lot of seating to choose from which helps. Seating is mostly outside but they do have a couple inside tables. The food is always fresh, hot, and delicious!

The potatoes were very tasty. And spinach and Bacon and Fried Egg Sandwich was delicious

I loved this place! Very great pricing and great options of food and loved the coffee!

This is my first time at Everyday Eatery in Irvine. It is located in a strip mall next to other small eateries. There is lots of parking out front. The interior space is rudimentary with 5 small tables and 1 shared high table and stools in the middle. There is a Large common Outdoor area with lots of tables under Large umbrellas. As you walk in, right in front of you , you will find a basket with menus in it. Grab a menu so you could decide on what to order while waiting in line. I think this is a great idea and it saves time. Also, the menu is written with large prints which is always a plus. I did not have to use my reading glasses. You order first, grab your number and find a table. The menu is really simple, but on point. (See full menu in photos) I ordered the morning market scramble. It is scrambled eggs with veggies. Side of breakfast potatoes extra crispy. And salad. It was really good. The portion was generous. I also got a cardamom rose latte iced with oat milk, and one pump of syrup instead of three. It is one of their specialty drinks. It wasn't anything special. It was just as good as anywhere else. The prices are average.the service is really friendly and the food is good. I recommend trying everyday eatery for a quick and satisfying bite any day of the week.

We checked out the menu for gf options and reviews before going here for breakfast. They were accurate. The coffee and food was delicious. I wanted to try the Spanish latte but t was "oh so" delicious. I ordered the Essentials since it had the gf option. It came with a salad. It seems more places are serving a side salad with breakfast now or maybe it's because mine was a gf meal. I'm so happy they did t have an extra charge because my meal was gf. Luckily we got there at the right time because the line got longer after we ordered. You place your order then they bring the food out to you. The staff members are cheerful and helpful. Must be a fun place to work. There is eating inside and out.

Everyday Eatery continues to be a neighborhood favorite. Service is friendly, food is delicious and fresh. It is a great spot for a casual brunch and lunch.

I have been wanting to try this place for the longest time and finally came here to celebrate the belated Mother's Day for my girls "day" out. The place is located in a food court strip mall that is surrounded by businesses. As a result, this strip mall gets very busy around lunch time. The place has healthy options. I ordered the Turkey Pesto Sandwich with a side of salad since it was a brunch gathering. The portion was perfect and filling too. Taste was spot on. After I finished my lunch, I didn't feel super stuffed at all. Seeing they have breakfast options, a few days later I brought my daughter over for early breakfast. We ordered the French Toast Forever and Espresso Mascarpone Waffle. They were delicious and beautifully presented. My daughter and I came around 7:30 am on a Sunday morning. There was no crowd at all. Service was quick and the staff were very friendly and helpful. My daughter approved of the place and we'll be coming back again.

This breakfast place is so cute and they have some really creative menu items. They are open until 3 pm so I'm getting an iced matcha non fat latte. It's quick and easy and I stopped in to check it out. They also have a lot of gluten-free breakfast items which are relatively healthy

Close up of the lemon ricotta hotcakes :)

Jenny Q.

I came here for the first time over the weekend and loved the food here. The essentials: the standard, typical American breakfast with eggs, breakfast potatoes, choice between bacon/sausage, and toast or salad. The breakfast potatoes were good and flavorful. We picked sausage, but unfortunately they offer turkey sausage here instead of pork (so it's a little dry and bland). It's what you can expect from an American breakfast and a solid breakfast option Lemon ricotta hotcakes: The portion size is HUGE! I definitely recommend sharing with another person unless you have a large pancake appetite, haha. The honeycomb butter is sooooo delicious. I didn't even feel like I needed syrup for the pancakes after spreading the butter :) Nice lemon flavor, but I definitely wished it was a little more prominent Even though the line looks long, it does move quickly and I like that they had an employee managing the line inside and outside :) There's only a limited amount of seating inside, but plenty of tables outdoors. Considering how crowded it was, the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Plenty of parking in the lot. I would definitely come back!

I got a chance to visit Everyday Eatery today and had an average experience. Food: I ordered the scrambled egg sandwich with breakfast potatoes. The sandwich was delicious and so was the breakfast potatoes. I also got to try the hot coffee which was also good. Service: The service here was average at best. You pay tip for them to bring you the food and you order at the counter. Ambiance: The decor inside is nice but the seating is not very comfortable.

We had a chance to try out this restaurant for breakfast this week. It is located along Irvine Center Drive, near Sand Canyon. We went in, sat down and waited. No one came to us? Strange? I went to the counter and was told you must stand in line and order your food. I grabbed a menu, read it, made a selection, and was given the option of 18 to 25 percent tip. What for? I did everything. Oh, they brought the food to me. Here we go again? A DYS restaurant. This seems to be happening everywhere. Restaurant owners are designing their service as DYS. Have we lost the value of human contact? Have we all given up on the value of humanity? Twenty years ago, everywhere you went, we talked to each other; now, it's tablet, cell phone, texting, tap your card, DYS eating. I asked for a coffee. They gave me a small paper cup. The coffee is really good, but not in a mug? No refills? The food came. It was okay. We sat shoulder to shoulder with other customers on a steel wire chair. It was not very comfortable at all. It would have been nice to talk to someone who worked there, but again, they just do their job and don't have time for chit chat. No reason, they are not earning tips. I rather go to Dennys up the street. They at least serve you and talk to you. The whole experience was Okay.

Lemon Ricotta Hotcakes and The Essentials

Grace T.

Being in the area once a week, we decided we would try a new place each time. Today, we stumbled upon EVERYDAY EATERY. Located in a big shopping plaza, with lots of parking available, we grabbed breakfast. There are a few tables inside, which were all mostly taken, which is a good sign for a Tuesday morning. But there are plenty of tables outside as well. We got The Essentials which consists of eggs, breakfast potatoes, bacon or turkey sausage, and toast or salad. Had to try the lemon ricotta hotcakes which were my favorite. So fluffy and absolutely delicious. I also tried their cardamom rose latte which was really good, too! Overall, we enjoyed our breakfast here. Staff is friendly, place is clean, and food is great!

Raven R.

This is a nice place for breakfast! It gets crowded on weekends so prepare for a long line but it goes by quickly. You seat yourselves and while there is limited space inside, there is plenty of outdoor seating. The staff is really nice and the owner kept checking in on us which was sweet. We got organic chai to drink. For food items, we got lemon ricotta hotcakes, breakfast burritto with bacon, and a side of house made potatoes. Organic Chai- Served hot with just the right amount of sweetness and spiciness. A comforting drink for cold weather. House Potatoes- Served hot, crisp, and perfectly seasoned. The chipotle aioli is smoky with a little kick of heat. Lemon Ricotta Hotcakes- The hotcakes were soft and fluffy. They give sliced bananas and berries for a fruity accent. The honeycomb butter was the best part! It added sweetness and a crunchy texture that elevated the dish. Breakfast Burritto- You can pick a protein and we went with bacon which was crisp and meaty. The burritto was loaded with eggs, potatoes, green onion and cheese. Chipotle aioli and roasted salsa tie the flavors together. Very filling! Great experience overall!

We were there on a Saturday around 9:30am & there was a short line of about 10 people that moved fast. The lady who took our order is very friendly and warm. I ordered the golden rose latte which tasted wonderful but the lemon ricotta hot cakes was a disappointment. There wasn't a hint of lemon nor ricotta in it. It just tasted like regular, ordinary pancakes - nothing special . It's not worth the price. But I'll be back and try the other things on the menu. read more

Came here a little over a week ago and I'm sti thinking about the food. I got the avocado toast and it was so tasty. The avocado was perfectly ripe and seasoned. I added a fried egg on top and asked for it to be over medium and they killed the prep of the egg. Not a lot of places get over medium (it's either too runny or overcooked) but Everyday Eatery realllly did a good job with the egg prep. Also, whatever sauce they put on the side of the burger plate is . The green smoothie was very flavorful. Sweetness from the banana was perfect without there being an overpowering banana flavor. Also, can we talk about the aesthetics of this place? Whoever designed their interior has a great eye. It was homey and comfortable while being minimalist at the same time. It's a fine balance to pull off those 2 feels. read more

It was so good!!!! Everything was so fresh and beautifully detailed. There was 3 of us, so I'll go down the list: French toast forever: AMAZING. The mascarpone in the middle isn't too sweet, which is perfect when you add the berries and syrup over it. The slices were THICK and not too soggy or overcooked. Breakfast burrito: super good! Nice potatoes in it. Slightly spicy! Vegan scramble: tofu tasted like eggs and was just right. Not a huge fan of walnuts, but it was so good and hearty! We also all got a coffee, and they were amazing. So fun!!!! read more

Ordered the breakfast burrito and Sunshine juice. The burrito has way too much of some things and not enough of the others. Quite and imbalance of egg to other ingredients. Like most places, the eggs are overcooked to the point of being rubbery, which I suppose is forgivable since everyone is terrified of undercooked eggs. The sauce they put inside is okay, but there's way too much of it to the point where it was all could taste! It was literally gushing out with each bite. Not nearly enough cheese, which should be a felony in most states. The potatoes are done fairly well and were the best part of this item. To their credit, their service is prompt and friendly and they are definitely trying hard to be the trendy local spot. read more

Went for brunch with a friend around 10am last Sunday (sep 18). 45 minute wait, which was fine and expected and didn't matter much. I ended up getting "The Essentials", over medium eggs and the sausages. Ended up getting 2 really runny eggs with runny egg whites (AKA not even over easy, undercooked). The potatoes were alright, not crispy. The sausages were dry and gritty, yes gritty and were awful. The only reason the second star exists is because I got the hibiscus rose lemonade and it was delicious, but the food was the worst brunch food I've ever had. It was bad enough for me to leave a review, which I never do. I would rather go to Dennys Edit: I forgot to mention that the food took another 20-25 minutes to come out, and we only ordered the essentials, lemonade, and a latte. Wait time doesn't really matter but the food has to be good to be worth it, and you can't pay me to eat that food again read more

Besides the sweet foods and breakfast sandwiches (can't have eggs), are there options that onion/garlic/scallions/chives/etc can be removed? I know there are sauces and seasonings but I'm unsure if they contain alliums (those foods listed above)?

I highly recommend our Vegan Scramble with Brown Rice (instead of the quinoa; containing onions). This is one of my favorite dishes on the menu, and meets your dietary requirements!

The space feels like a beautiful greenhouse oasis, a thoughtfully designed environment that creates a sense of serenity whether you choose to sit indoors or outside. The staff are equally welcoming and friendly, which adds to the overall charm and warmth of this coffee roaster. With a full page beverage and food menu, MoonGoat is much more than just a place for coffee. They offer a nice variety of food as well. I only wish their selection of desserts and sweets were a bit more expansive and appealing. We ordered the iced Marsala coffee and a latte. The beans were perfectly roasted, delivering a wonderful depth and richness to both drinks. Each cup was smooth, flavorful and thoroughlly enjoyable. We also tried the gluten free pecan cake. I loved that it wasn't overly sweet which allowed the flavorrs to come through naturally. The cake itself was slightly plain, but the generous pecan/toffee topping added the richness and texture it needed and made each bite much more satisfying. I could easily sit here for hours, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and the thoughtfully designed space. It's the kind of coffee shop where you want to slow down, linger and simply enjoy the moment.

This coffee cafe is located inside a Marriott Hotel next to the lobby, but is open to the public…read more Free parking is available in designated spots just past the "valet parking" sign. There are 3 indoor tables, 3 outdoor tables, and a long counter where customers can stand. I ordered one of their special signature drinks, an iced mint cold brew. A look into their pastry case led me to also request a raspberry danish. The single person behind the counter who was taking orders and working as barista was not exactly charming but it was understandable as she was slammed with multiple customers right when I arrived. My order was presented within a couple minutes (she was great at multitasking!) and I sat out on the patio. The iced mint cold brew was refreshing and was like drinking a box of Campfire Girl mints, both chocolatey and minty (sidebar: I am so sad that, as of last year, those mints are no longer made). It essentially was a mocha made with coconut milk and mint syrup; I really liked it. The pastry was rather dry but the raspberry filling was vibrant in flavor and not overly sweet. The vibe is more of a place for hotel guests to have a business meeting or to grab something prior to dashing off to a corporate event rather than just a place to hang out. But it's also a great option if you are near the Irvine Spectrum and just want to stop to quickly get a coffee drink and sit for a short break.

Iced Pumpkin Spice Latte with pumpkin foam: 5/5, such an enjoyable and desserty drink. Pumpkin flavor and autumnal spices are balanced well with the creaminess and coffee strength. The foam wasn't needed at all, as the drink itself was plenty sweet and flavorful, but it was a fun addition. Iced Strawberry Latte: 5/5. I believe they used oat milk since it's the base for their Strawberry Matcha Latte. I definitely tasted the strawberry, but it wasn't overwhelming to the point of making the drink taste like a milk with fruit puree. Iced Strawberry Rose Latte (seasonal, spring): 3/5. More on the bland side for me, as I didn't really taste either strawberry or rose. This also wasn't as sweet as the other seasonal drinks I've ordered. I got espresso in mine, but my friend's same latte as decaf had a subtle strawberry flavor in it, which was interesting considering it didn't taste similar to mine. Iced Lavender Latte: 2/5. This was also disappointingly bland and overly milky. To my palate, it tasted like it was only slightly sweetened, and without any lavender flavor or floral essence. I wonder if a stronger-flavored syrup would make it a better latte.

On a splendid Saturday in Irvine, my footsteps led me to Everyday Eatery, a place that quickly revealed itself as a gem of an experience. My first visit was marked by a delightful surprise at the exceptionally kind and attentive service that greeted us upon arrival. The eatery boasts a wonderfully arranged seating area, with ample outdoor spaces shaded by thoughtful canopies, creating a serene oasis ideal for enjoying a meal under the gentle California sun. The setting perfectly complements the vibrant and inviting atmosphere of the place, promising a comfortable dining experience. Our tasty journey began with their Iced Strawberry Match--a refreshing blend of house-made strawberry purée, Mizuba matcha, and oat milk. This drink was a revelation, with the lush sweetness of the strawberries marrying beautifully with the earthy tones of the matcha, all smoothed over by the creamy oat milk. It was a beverage that danced delightfully across the palate, unlike anything we had ever tasted before. Accompanying our unique drinks was the Breakfast Burrito, a hearty creation stuffed with scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, green onions, Monterey jack cheese, and applewood smoked necked in chipotle aioli. Each bite was a satisfying blend of flavors, with the smoky bacon and the subtle kick of the aioli enhancing the fresh ingredients. The side of house-made roasted salsa added just the right touch of zest, rounding out a truly satisfying meal. Eagerly anticipating our next visit, we left Everyday Eatary with plans to return for their other signature drinks and to indulge in the Lemon Ricotta Hotcakes that caught our eye. With its delightful offerings and welcoming atmosphere, Everyday Eatery is set to become a beloved staple in our explorations of Irvine. read more

My girlfriend and I tried Everday Eatery in Irvine for breakfast, and let me tell you, the popularity of this place was evident from the moment I arrived. The wait time was absolutely insane, so I decided to proceed without waiting and managed to find a seat despite the restaurant being fully occupied. The entire square was abuzz, largely due to the crowd gathered here. I ordered their breakfast burrito, and while it was decent, there were a few aspects that left room for improvement. The first thing that caught my attention was the way the potato was cut. In my opinion, it could have been diced a little more finely to enhance the overall texture and consistency of the burrito. However, the flavors were satisfactory, and it was an okay breakfast option. My girlfriend ordered scrambled eggs with spinach and potatoes, and she seemed pleased with her choice. The eggs were fluffy and well-seasoned, and the combination of spinach and potatoes added a nice touch to the dish. It's worth noting that the portion size was generous, so it definitely left her feeling satisfied. On the beverage front, I must commend the establishment for their excellent coffee. The brew was rich, robust, and exactly what I needed to kickstart my day. It was a standout element among an otherwise average breakfast experience. I'm willing to give this place another shot and plan to return for lunch to sample their sandwiches. The bustling atmosphere and the overall reputation of the eatery make me curious to explore other offerings on their menu. Hopefully, the lunchtime experience will leave a stronger impression on me. read more

I have dined here before but this was probably my absolute last time. One, theres no prices on the menu and they keep raising the price but the quality keeps going down. I saw on another yelp the reason why there arent any prices on the menu is because the owners dont want to "spend" money on changing the prices every year. If you are gonna raise the prices, at LEAST make your food taste better. Really deceiving on the customer end because just last year the breakfast burrito was $15-$16. One breakfast burrito is now $18 or even $20 for tip. It has never been consistent; It is either really small, they forget my salsa, or the eggs are really wet. Second, the customer service used to be really well but I noticed it went down drastically. There used to be a girl who always greeted me and i personally really looked forward into seeing her whenever I would stop by. I was informed she was let go for no reason and the customer service really went downhill. I got no greeting, the girl with curly hair who took my order didnt even smile, the girl who made my drink took sooo long even though the restaurant was dead. After spending $28 (tip included) and its counter service ( meaning you do everything yourself ), It is not worth spending your money here. Wait time is long(20mins for ONE burrito) for low quality food, the drink took around 7mins to be made just to have a shitty heart on top & no smile or good customer service. If the owners really cared, they would really read these yelp reviews and take action into solving these problems. Until they are proactive, this is definitely a 1/5 for me read more

I came here twice this week just to get my coffee fill and I wouldnt want to come back after my observation about an employee. On Saturday morning I had ate here with my mom. We ordered some food and two lattes and this older gentleman man delivered our food. Whatever right ? Until my mom noticed him grabbing his pants when he was walking around the plaza..you know around that area. We noticed that he was running food and we were seeing if he would wash his hands and he didnt! He was the one who took our food to us and It just made us feel weird because you are working with food and touching that area & not washing his hands. I came again on Tuesday and he was the one who took my coffee order. Just remembering him left an unpleasant taste in my mouth. I had only ordered a latte and when I finally got it, there was a bunch of scribbles on my cup. I guess he wrote my drink wrong and tried to rewrite it ? But if im paying $7 for a drink I personally would like the cup to still be nice. Especially since i like posting my drinks, the writing makes it not aesthetically pleasing. I do really give out points if service was nice and presentable but after trying this place twice in a week, I think im good. I hope someone reminds him to stop touching his pants while hes handling food !! As well fix his presentation on the cups because i'm just a girl who likes posting silly little drinks on her story . Maybe try again if i dont see him working read more

Every Day Eatery in Irvine, California, is a must-visit spot for sandwich enthusiasts. I recently tried their Chipotle Cali sandwich, and it was an absolute delight. Packed with flavor and perfectly grilled chicken, it's a sandwich I highly recommend to anyone craving a hearty meal. Even though the portion was generous, I couldn't finish it all, but thanks to their convenient to-go boxes, I enjoyed it later for dinner. And let's not forget about the potatoes - they were simply divine. While the lavender lattes sounded intriguing, my friend and I found them lacking in lavender flavor. They tasted more like regular iced coffee with a few scattered lavender seeds on top. Despite this minor disappointment, the overall dining experience was enjoyable. The atmosphere at Every Day Eatery is inviting, with a bustling vibe that adds to the excitement. It can get pretty busy, so snagging a seat requires a bit of patience and vigilance. However, the attentive staff ensures that tables are promptly cleaned after each guest, maintaining a clean and pleasant environment for all patrons. In summary, while the lavender lattes may not have lived up to expectations, the sandwiches and ambiance make Every Day Eatery a worthwhile dining destination in Irvine read more

Came here with my kids because we saw some pictures online that looked great. It was a pretty steady Sunday afternoon. We ordered one "lemon ricotta hotcakes" which were just regular pancakes. nothing really special about them. After the first few bites, I had noticed it was chewy? When I split the pancake apart, it was still undercooked. The batter was not cooked all the way and it had a very gummy taste..gross. I had also noticed that they forgot the bananas on it and only left the berries): Also saw some reviews that had the same problem I had with these but I guess the owners do not care about their consistent quality. After spending $20 ( with tip ) I ended up just throwing it all away and going to burnt crumbs for their souffle fluffy pancakes! They always make sure their food is cooked for perfection. Overall from this experience, I wouldnt wanna come back here. The staff were extremely friendly but the food was not a good first time experience. ( better quality at other brunch places in irvine; poached kitchen & burnt crumbs! ) read more

Every time I've visited, it's clear this place is always busy--so expect a bit of a wait--but it's totally worth it since the food is made fresh to order. The customer service is top-notch; the staff always acknowledges you when you arrive, and though it's not full-service at the table, they're attentive and make sure to check in occasionally to clear plates or offer assistance. The ordering process is upfront, so just keep that in mind. One of my favorites is the lemon ricotta pancakes--they're absolutely delicious, flavorful, and incredibly fluffy. The atmosphere has an earthy, unique vibe that adds to the overall experience. The space itself is small and cozy, so it's not ideal for large groups, though they do have outdoor seating available. Overall, the food here is exceptional--packed with flavor and a refreshing change from the usual restaurant fare. I'll definitely keep coming back because of the great service, tasty food, and clean, well-maintained space, including the restrooms. Highly recommend! read more

I'd always come here once or twice a week in the mornings to bring home to share with my wife but i have not been interested in coming as often anymore. They had really good employees that really made my day just talking to them. Angelica was my absolute favorite because she would always greet me and always made me feel so welcomed & taken care of. Jose the manager always checked up on me and I loved talking to him as well. I was informed they were let go and the service was never the same after that unfortunately. Food was somewhat okay but the reason why I kept coming back was for the service and connection they always gave me. I believe Nely is still employed here so I would only come every now and then since she gives me great service always! I felt like Tatiana was only nice to me after she saw me give Angelica and Nely tips so that left a sour taste in my mouth. No one really greets me anymore nor is friendly so I hope the owners work on that because the ambiance is not the same anymore. read more

The Everyday Eatery is a fantastic breakfast spot that never disappoints. Their vegetable omelet is packed with fresh veggies and served with a side of deliciously crispy potatoes, making it a hearty and satisfying option. However, the real standout for me is their breakfast burrito. It's absolutely one of the best I've ever had. The bacon is perfectly crispy, and the flavors are perfectly balanced with the creamy aioli, making each bite better than the last. It's the dish I keep going back for, and it's easily one of my top favorite breakfast burritos of all time. I also have to mention their lemon ricotta pancakes, which are simply phenomenal. They're fluffy and airy with just the right balance of sweetness and a slight tang from the lemon. These pancakes are an absolute treat and a must-try! If you're looking for an exceptional breakfast, The Everyday Eatery is the place to go! This is one of the best breakfast spots in Irvine. read more

Everyday Eatery Bakery is a fantastic brunch spot with a cozy vibe and delicious options. The breakfast burrito is my usual go-to, and it never disappoints--it's hearty and packed with flavor. The menu also has a variety of tempting options for all tastes. The lavender latte is a must-try! It's a unique twist on a classic coffee, with a lovely floral flavor that's both refreshing and calming. While there's ample outdoor seating, the indoor space can be a bit limited, so it's a good idea to arrive early, especially on weekends when the lines can get long. Despite the wait, the food and drinks make it worth it. If you're looking for a great brunch spot with delicious food and unique drinks, Everyday Eatery Bakery is definitely worth a visit! read more

This café was a great find! I ordered the breakfast burrito and it was absolutely delicious, packed with flavor and cooked just right. The menu had so many tempting options that I honestly had a hard time choosing what to get, which just gives me another reason to come back. I also grabbed a coffee and it was smooth and flavorful, a perfect match for the meal. They have a small bakery section with donuts and other pastries that looked really fresh and inviting. The inside of the café is a bit small and simple, but there's plenty of outdoor seating which made for a nice atmosphere. Service was quick and friendly, and everyone in my group loved their food. I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu. read more

They claim dog welcome outdoor, but keep in mind this is total false advertising cause outdoor space is a public space for the shopping plaza. It has nothing to do with this restaurant. They have been reported to ADA and Department of Justice. Lawyer is on the way. read more

I recently visited Everyday Eatery and was thoroughly impressed by their delicious offerings. The avocado breakfast burrito was simply outstanding--packed with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavor. Additionally, their granola is amazing, perfectly crunchy and not too sweet. The combination of quality food, friendly service, and a welcoming atmosphere makes Everyday Eatery a must-visit. Highly recommend! read more

I really want to like this place but the past three times I have eaten here, I have had what seems like food poisoning! I've eaten three different meals on three separate occasions, and my stomach was destroyed. My husband also got sick when he went there most recently. Their food is not cheap and quality should be good, so I wonder what is going on with their food. Unfortunately I won't be returning here. read more

Everything here is fantastic. The food is fantastic, the owners and staff are incredibly friendly and focused on quality product, food comes out quickly, and the atmosphere makes you want to take your time and enjoy your time at Everyday Eatery. The seeded cookie is my new favorite Friday treat! My coworker and I have been in several times since they have opened and we love it. We will be back regularly. read more

Just bought an electric bike. It's so nice to be out and about in the fresh air again. I stopped and pulled over for a little seishin and a coffee. I came by this eatery then a small shopping mall area. Coffee was excellent and the service was just as good. I definitely recommend this bakery eatery for breakfast, lunch, for just a quick cup of coffee. The regular coffee has free refills by the way. read more

Super cute breakfast spot! Came here on a weekday for some noms - place had a good crowd but we…read morewere sat quickly. It's a cute restaurant - clean and airy. We got a smattering of food - there were a bunch of delicious options, which makes it difficult when you're indecisive like me. Breakfast burger - this was amazing. There's a cool Japanese "tornado" egg on it, which is really nice, texture-wise. Much better than just slapping an over-easy on top. Flavor was great. Bacon was great. This was one of my favorites. Tuna melt - I love tuna melts so I'll always order if I find one on a menu. This one was good. Like actual prepared tuna with kewpie. Definitely elevated from your typical diner fare. Also came with a side of sweet pickles - great to cut through the richness. Pork belly bowl - this is for you rice bowl lovers. Nice cuts of pork belly with a sesame sauce, delicious stewed kimchi, and Japanese style potato salad. Better than your typical bowls that just slap a bunch of things on top of rice. There's nice thought going into this dish and the stewed kimchi really packs that extra punch. Apple burrata salad - nice and light. With everything else we ordered being hearty, the salad offered a nice way to cut through the richness. Creamy burrata on apple slices with tomatoes. Bright flavors with the silkiness of the cheese to bind it all together. Truffle tots - get the tots. Top tier. Fresh, airy, and crispy. Get the truffle oil. Croissants - how many places actually make their croissants in-house nowadays? We got a few to go and devoured them later in the day. Flakey exterior with soft buttery goodness inside. Legit stuff. Delicious baked goods, booze, and good food. Solid spot for some good comfort food.

We came on a Sunday afternoon and there was a line to order but still very easy to find a place to sit. The manager, Ellie, was working the register and she was absolutely sweet and above and beyond friendly. We got: ~ Chicken Alfredo pasta ~ still my favorite chicken Alfredo pasta! Tastes more savory and cheesy than other Alfredo's I've had. It comes with cheesy garlic bread which is delicious. Highly recommend ~ American breakfast ~ very beautifully played and comes with a great variety of food ~ Matcha latte ~ Mango pastry ~ hard chocolate exterior with mango crème and a jelly/jam filling. Would highly recommend this, tasted like fresh mangos and so delicious

ITEMS I TRIED: - Santa Ana Omelette: pretty decent though I didn't love the sausage portion of it. The potatoes were nice and crisp. It comes with a good portion of avocado as well. Really loved the melted cheese that brought everything together. - Latte: with oat milk, loved the latte art! Pretty standard drink. PARKING: decent parking around the District though can get busy. SERVICE: thought it would be slow because they seemed overwhelmed and short staffed. However, food and drinks came out very fast. PRICE: decently priced, it was about $6.50 for the latte and $16 for the omelette. Overall, I was not blown away by the food, though it is decent. However, the ambiance is really cute and it's a great place to catch up and vibe with a friend.

The bagels here really match my Korean palate. I loved all tbe flavors…read more The texture of the bagels is less hard in comparison to traditional bagels. My husband and I were a fan because they're easier to chew and less of a jaw workout. Even the lox on the bagel was less salty and not as fishy which we liked. I saw that they had ssamjang cream cheese and jjajang cream cheese I think on the special menu. I'll have to come back to try those next! The environment inside the store is really nice, but the real winner is the corporate plaza's outside seating by the fountain area. What a great location with an amazing view. This is a great place to get a morning bagel and take a stroll.

Not the best bagel I've had but unique flavors with an Asian twist…read more Rise is located in a business complex, parking is in a structure but can get validated at shop. They have unique flavors like poke, bulgogi, fried chicken shmear, and ube. I got the poke bagel on furikake and hubby got the bulgogi. Also got matcha and coffee. Price for bagels is $15-$20 bit steep. Poke bagel (7.5/10)-generous amount of poke not overly salty but could t get the bagel flavor due to the overpowering poke Bulgogi (6/10)-dry but meat flavor was good need sauce on side The matcha wasn't the best I've had and can't adjust sweetness. The bagels are pretty and tik tok hype but I've had better bagels. I would like to try the bagels with the unique spreads next time

The service here is so kind and the staff helped us recommend drinks for our first time there. The cafe itself is small but there is a lot of seating options both inside and outside of it. I ordered the Blueberry Pie Matcha, which seemed to be a seasonal item and it genuinely tasted like a blueberry pie (would recommend for anyone who like really sweet lattes or a "sweet treat" type of drink). My friend ordered their famous "Thank You Berry Matcha" and I got to try it. It was super yummy, sweet but not too sweet and the strawberry matcha flavor was pleasant. The breakfast burrito was also good! I really liked the hot sauce it came with and it was a nice savory bite to pair with our drinks. My only complaint was that the Wi-Fi here wasn't seem to be connecting to any of my devices or my friend's (maybe this was user error on my behalf) but I would advise maybe staying inside the cafe if you want to get working Wi-Fi. Parking is also validated if you park at the parking garage behind Kit for 90 minutes! Overall, I'll definitely be back to try more of their drinks!

I ordered the Salmon Toast (great) and pastrami toast (tasty cheese spread). Both came with a killer spicy avocado spread that had a nice kick to it. You also get 2 watermelon slices. For each, cost was $15 and $14, respectively. I just had a CT scan at UCI Health nearby and after I got out, I wanted try a new breakfast. This cafe hit the spot. I ended up taking a cubano sandwich to go for lunch later on.

A solid breakfast burrito and I see why it makes so many Top OC lists. Without a doubt it is a top tier option. Great tasting. I ordered the bacon and left fully satisfied. I laughed reading the comments about the grease. Inside the tortilla are freshly cooked eggs, cheese, tater tots and a protein option what do you expect? If you want to eat clean stick to Avocado toast and fresh fruit. Parking is inside a large garage. The levers were raised this morning but I believe they validate parking. Service was slow because the cashier was inputting a large ordering and I bet they had several online orders as well (its near a plethora of businesses) I will go back to The Trough UNLESS the Cut starts serving their breakfast burritos all days of the week. If they go that route, I will drive the extra 6 minutes off the 405 and go there instead.
