I Needed a quick sweet fix today and got a sundae here Thank you for the quick service

I went there for the first time to try the food. I order a classic hamburger and my son ordered a #3. The hamburgers were so good and the guy cooking was so nice. The place was very clean as well.

twister w/ snickers
Myles P.

So after a really good dinner I was in the mood for ice cream and I was not aware they had a fosters freeze by me. So my partner grabbed an ice cream cup with pineapple topping and I got a "twister" with snickers. The ice cream was delicious and hit the spot! The service was good and so was the dessert. I'll be back there soon.

Medium Dipped Vanilla Cone
Stanley P.

This place has the best soft serve dipped cones in SELA. The chocolate actually hardens unlike other places. I think I over did it with the medium BUT I still ate the entire cone. Next time I'll be sure to just get their small dipped cone. I love coming here with my favorite person and our furry Jack! And absolute yes for ice cream in South East Los Angeles.

The restaurant

I've been out looking for the best burgers. I started going to Fosters freeze sents I was a kid. So I felt I needed to just there burgers. I ordered the Big Boss with fries and a drink. I was very surprised by the look of the burger and it tasted great. The patty is thing and cooked well done. It has a good texture to it. The cheese they used works well with all the pickles and tomatoes. This is not a fancy place but being how long it's been in business should tell that it a good place to eat.

Regular hotdog

Food has flavor. But the inside felt a little sticky and dirty. Workers were nice and fast service.

Cones, malts and sanitizer
John S.

Great place for a vanilla malt. I just want to note that hand sanitizer was available on the counter, social distancing was not observed because SOME HOW I was the only one there. If this place served a decent turkey burger... even the seasoned Butterball ones... This would be my go to burger and a malt, 1950s feel, spot. My personal Arnold's, even though the seating is outside (See: Happy Days). Service was very prompt. The employee was polite... I can't ask for more... oh wait... I can... longer hours, at least on the weekends would be great, as I am a late night, vampire type of guy. But, I get it... like they say "If da sales are slow, close da doh!" I will be back... my fam in tow (man, even that rhymed, lol. Thank for everything, keep up the good work, and stay safe.

The best ice cream
Evelyn V.

Toast has been on my list of places to check out for a couple of years, and a friend put it back on…read moremy radar back in April. Just a couple of weeks ago, my friends and I were considering our options for where to have brunch to celebrate one of our friend's retirement. Toast was one of the names I dropped in the metaphorical hat, and it won the vote of a few. My friends were surprised that I had named a spot I hadn't yet tried since I'm usually the "foodie" of the group. However, another girl in the group who had been here before vouched for it. I'm glad I finally got to try this place this past weekend, and I cannot wait to return! There were so many things on their menu that I wanted to try. A couple of the ladies ordered green chilaquiles, the friend we were celebrating ordered the Spanish Omelet, another woman I'd met that day had the bacon and eggs, another one ordered the Biscuits and grave with a side of bacon that looked perfectly crispy. I wish I had taken pictures of the plates as it all looked so lovely! I didn't even take a picture of my own food haha. I had my eyes on an omelet, one of the Benedicts or the Chicken n Waffle. In the end, the chicken and waffle won. It comes served with a little container of maple syrup with bacon pieces. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The waffle was delicious, though I did request for some extra syrup on the side. To drink, a few ladies ordered mimosas, one ordered an iced caramel coffee, and I ordered the Carajillo. I fell in love with this drink last summer in Mexico and do not often see it on the menu. I love the subtle citrus notes the Licor 43 adds to this espresso drink. It is very similar to an espresso martini, and theirs comes topped with a toasted marshmallow. I honestly wanted to try almost every item in their Tipsy Barista section of their drinks. I'll just have to come back that many more times :) Plenty of parking in the mall lot. It does get pretty packed during peak hours. Fortunately I had called ahead to put our group of 6 down. We went in on Saturday around 11:30. It slowed down a bit while we were eating, but started to get busy again after 1. Otherwise, we might have been forced to honor their 90-minute rule. All in all, a great experience from everyone in our group. No complaints on the wait, service or food. That certainly deserves a toast. Great job, Toast!

I ordered the steak and eggs along with a margarita flight, and everything was fantastic. The food was delicious, the drinks were fun to try, and the service was excellent from start to finish. The only thing that caught me off guard was the price--it's definitely on the more expensive side. But if you have the budget and want to treat yourself to a nice brunch, I'd 100% recommend giving this place a try. Great food, great drinks, excellent service, and an awesome brunch atmosphere. Definitely made my birthday feel special!

They have an organized seating system with teams of people with headsets scurrying around. Our server was a little green in terms of his interpersonal skills but we tried to tease the recticence out of him...semi-successfully! Our meal, which was more like a snack since we were in town for a late night performance and needed a place to light, was the perfect meal. Somehow word got out that it was our first visit to this Lazy Dog, and one of the line cooks appeared at our table to welcome us. He was very impressive and welcoming; we were a bit taken aback by the proactive hospitality. He said he'd like to welcome us with a complimetary bowl of their Tangy BBQ chips that came with some delicious dipping sauce. We were delighted. And those chips -- OMG, not your typical homemade chip. Next, we ordered the Brussels sprouts which were awesome and delicious. Then the Seared Ahi Tuna Salad that comes with greens, carrots, radish, avocado, pickled cucumbers, peanut ponzu vinaigrette and soy dipping sauce on the side . So delicious! The tuna was fresh and perfectly cooked with lovely a seasoned crust and pink ahi filet. We still had time before we were due at our date, so ordered coffee, then refills...and more refills, LOL! ( No wonder our performance was so wired) The staff was happy to have us linger. We did not feel rushed, and there was no pressue to vacate our table. We salivated over other menu items, and have talked about going back to try a few. We don't need an excuse to drive to Downey but we'll be looking for one! Loved this unexpected experience! Would give more stars for the braintrust behind the customer experience here ;-)
