We were greeted at the door and seated promptly. The restaurant has a bustling commotion and an upbeat vibe inside. I ordered coffee and a juice and my mother ordered a coke. We put in our food order right away with our friendly server, and it was a fairly short wait before we had food on the table. Mom had a ham melt with Gruyère and tomato, served with potatoes. I had a Barbacoa beef breakfast bowl with eggs, black beans, pico, tortilla chips, ranchero sauce, shredded beef, and a lime crema. They were mindful of my avocado allergy, and the food was delicious. Reasonably priced, great service, a good atmosphere, and a good experience overall.

The Toasted Yolk gave us a little bit of everything--some hits, some misses, and one bartender who…read moremay have found a new calling. Avocado Toast Let's start with what should be one of the easiest breakfast items on any menu. Avocado toast doesn't need much--fresh avocado, a squeeze of lemon or lime, cracked pepper, sea salt, roasted tomatoes, cilantro, and a little love. Unfortunately, mine arrived with chunky raw onions, a few tomatoes, and not much else. The bright flavors that make avocado toast shine were missing. The sourdough bread, however, was perfectly toasted and had a great texture. Eggs Both dishes were ordered with eggs cooked over hard. Both arrived over easy. That's a simple request that should have been easy to execute. Salmon Benedict Presentation was nice, but the seasoning department apparently took the morning off. Salmon naturally has great flavor, but it still needs something. A squeeze of lemon, a touch of cracked pepper, sea salt, fresh herbs--anything. The salmon was bland, and the hash brown casserole followed the same theme. Breakfast Potatoes We ordered potatoes with grilled onions and received potatoes topped with the same chunky raw onions that appeared on the avocado toast. Not exactly what was expected. Now for the stars of the show... the drinks. The Mimosa was delicious, refreshing, and exactly what brunch should be. The Sidecar deserves special recognition. When the bartender admitted they had to Google how to make it, I became a little nervous. Turns out I had no reason to be. That Sidecar was fantastic and easily the best thing that hit our table all morning. Whoever made it absolutely knocked it out of the park. Final Verdict The Toasted Yolk has potential, but the kitchen needs to become friends with seasoning. The ingredients were there; the flavor was not. A few simple additions--lemon, pepper, salt, herbs, and attention to cooking eggs correctly--would have dramatically improved the experience. Will I return? Yes. The drinks were excellent, the atmosphere was pleasant, and there's enough on the menu to give it another chance. Next visit, I'll be ordering something different and hoping the kitchen brings a little more flavor to the table.

Looking for a plant based restaurant in Memphis is very difficult…read more The experience here solidifies my feelings. I've been here about 3-4 times for various items and none are impressive. The smoothie bowl was melted, the fresh juice was pre juiced and poured in to a cup, and the zucchini noodle bowl was just... bleh. In this economy to toss a plate due to undercooked sweet potato and over cooked zucchini noodles as well as lack of flavor is sad, but expected. My advice to this establishment would be; plant based does not mean lack of flavor. Nor does it mean lack of presentation bc my food looked like it was thrown into a box. Very unappealing. Cashew ranch is impressive! Hence my two stars. Would not recommend and won't be coming back.

Let's start with the logistics: this place is tiny, and the "system" they have going on is pure chaos. You order at the counter, they hand you a number, and then employees just aggressively shout numbers out into a crowded room. To make matters worse, people ordering to-go just hog the limited tables meant for dine-in customers while they wait. Management desperately needs to hand out table flags, text people when it's ready, or something, because the current setup is a bottleneck. Between the crowd and the open kitchen, expect to leave the building smelling straight-up like bacon grease. Because they were slammed, it took an absolute eternity for my food to hit the table. If you are on a tight schedule to get out of town, this is not the move. Now, the saving grace is the food--the kitchen definitely has soul. I ordered the fish and grits, and being hardheaded, I added a side of four shrimp just to compare. Learn from my mistake: just stick to the fish and grits! The fried catfish was seasoned to absolute perfection, piping hot, and the grits were incredibly creamy. The shrimp were okay, but not worth the extra cash. Honestly, the food is genuinely good Southern comfort food, but it is heavily overpriced for the tiny portion sizes and the chaotic, cramped experience. I'd probably only ever come back for a call-ahead to-go order, and only if I had zero time constraints.

The waiter we had was being trained and that made the experience better. We got the attention of two waiters. This place was not busy at all. I think there were only 4 parties there. This place deserves a lot more business. For drinks, I ordered the Peach Martini and Long Island. The Peach Martini was a little too sweet for my taste and I couldn't taste the alcohol. The long island was good. I ordered the Creamy Cajun Pasta. It is not as big as it looks in the pictures but it packs a ton of flavor. They seared the sausage on both sides and thinly sliced it. Everything about the dish was perfection. The apple cobbler was also very good. Be patient with this place because they will be out of certain menu items but the food you get will be wonderful.

It is a great stop for a no-frills, relaxing time near the house if you life in the suburbs of Memphis and don't want to make a drive to have a good time.

VERY DISAPPOINTING....THE WAITER SAID SHE WAS GOING TO CALL THE POLICE.... SO WE WAITED FOR THE…read morePOLICE TO COME....PLEASE READ WHAT LED UP TO THIS.....THIS PLACE HAS CHANGED....I suggested the place because I have always enjoyed the food, atmosphere and customer service. I was so disappointed when my acai bowl came out watery, with a chuck of what appeared to be a round piece of frozen blueberry puree on top, and mostly granolas.... My protein pancakes came out warm in the center cold around the outside and stuck together...Not good at all. So disappointing. But since I suggested it to my friend, I was going to press through and endure it. However, my friend ordered scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuit and breakfast potatoes. Sadly to say, the biscuit came out cold, heavy, with the bottom discolored and soaked in grease, totally inedible. The eggs were luke-warm at best. The bacon was cold, and look like it had been sitting up for a while, you can see that the grease had settled into the meat. When the server returned, I shared with her that my friend's biscuit and bacon was cold. She said let her ask the kitchen and see what they can do. We waited, and waited, she never came back. I went in and asked for assistants and was told our waiter had other customers that came in that she had seat. So, I express to this young lady, (whom name I will not mention, because she may have just been having a bad day this Friday..... She said, it could not be cold and could not see how it came out cold because she (our waiter) brought it out as soon as the kitchen placed it in the window. We asked her to look at the biscuit and the bacon, we even asked her to just feel it, she said she did not want to touch our food. We told her this is not our food, we cannot eat this like this...so you can touch it to confirm the temperature. She said, look its Friday...I can get another biscuit and bacon from the kitchen. I asked for fresh biscuit and bacon. She said there is a difference between fresh and hot, she can get us a hot biscuit and bacon, but they opened at 6:30am. I said ma'am, what does that have to do with receiving fresh and hot food, I understand what time the restaurant opens, but its only 8:23am now. She said let her go and get another biscuit and bacon from the kitchen. We waited, and we waited for at least another 12 to 15 minutes. I walked over to ask another server for the young lady that was assisting us, then I saw her walking towards the patio where we were seated with a plate, I walked over to meet her to see that it was another saggy biscuit and two pieces of bacon as if it was thrown into hot grease and fried. I said, ma'am I am so sorry, but we cannot eat this food. Please just take it all back. She said she can not. This is the food we ordered, she can box it up and we can take it with us, but we will have to pay for it. I said, no ma'am we are not paying for food that will only go into the garbage. She told us, that if we did not pay for it she would have to call the police, and get the proper authorities here to let them handle it. We said okay, call them, we will sit right here until they come. And we sat and we waited.... She came back out and said, I have your receipt. I said ma'am respectfully, we can not eat this and we cannot pay for this. She said since yawl not going to pay, I need to take your name and number. So I gave her my real name and my real number, and expressed that I look forward to the call and I hope she have a good Friday and a great weekend. We left... and have committed to not come back to this restaurant. So sad, and I hope it turns things around because it is not going in a positive direction...So sad....
