Finally tried on toast on a whim. Found the food to be decent but a bit lacking compared to the competition surrounding them in the market. The Italian beef here was a good sized portion, price was a little high, and the service took a while despite no one else having ordered at the stand. Overall, the authenticity was good but it just felt a little underwhelming in the sea of unique eats. read more

If I could give it a zero stars I would. Got an Italian beef and the meat was tough. Au jus was so thin it may as well be water. Barely any cheese I paid extra for. Bread was a big dough ball. Pretty bad for 21 bucks. read more

On Toast - Thanks for the side of water - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

Fresh ingredients, great brunch toast spot! This vendor closes early at 2pm (I've missed them a bunch of times over the weekends when I arrive in the afternoon/evening!). The zesty Mushroom goat cheese toast was a perfect blend of ingredients and paired well with pesto mayo on multi-grain bread (I got a choice of multi-grain or sour dough). It made up for the well-done/slightly burnt toast and the bread was okay. The grilled mushrooms was the stand-out along with the combo of ingredients! It's a tad expensive at $9 for toast and wish there were panini sandwiches offered on the menu. The toast wasn't that filling, and might get another one! Will come back when I'm craving some fancy toast! read more

On Toast - Lox with Lox & Bacon without bacon - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I like their menu items but have been disappointed in ordering that it is not served as it should be. Would recommend checking your order before leaving. My chicago dog, which was tasty was served cold and I needed to warm it up at home and just today I ordered a BLT and it had 1 slice of bread! Will be difficult to justify going back again. read more

I was looking for a quick brunch and decided to check this out after many times walking past it before. While it wasn't a mind blowing brunch, it did the trick. My partner and I ordered two open face sandwiches to split, the lox and bacon on sourdough and the steak eggs and cheese on multigrain. It took about ~10 min so we walked around union market while waiting for the text that our order was ready. - Lox and bacon: the combo of lox and bacon was a bit too salty for my taste, but the lox on its own actually wasn't too salty and the bacon was decent too, though I prefer it crispier. I wish the pickled onions were a bit more pickled and sweet though. - Steak eggs and cheese: the scrambled eggs were a great consistency and the pesto mayo was a unique pairing, but it worked. The steak was tender and cooked well, but tbh didn't have much flavor on its own. The sandwiches looked small but they didn't skimp on the protein, so I wasn't hungry at the end of the meal. I think the quality of each ingredient was pretty good, but the flavors could be refined more. Definitely not a bad meal, but probably not something I would crave often. read more

Finally made it to Union Market! The pics are a mix of the Market and On Toast. Free parking lot next to the Market. Or you could park on the street. On Toast Cash Register guy was really nice and patient. I ordered Avocado toast with scrambled eggs and bacon on the side. When I was given my order, there was No Egg and the bacon was ontop of the toast. So they had to re-order and shuffle my food items for what I Paid for. There was a bit more feta cheese than I would like on it. Sizeable. I was still left hungry. Also had a coffee - pretty basic. You can only order Poached egg or Scrambled egg. Poached eggs are in the shell and then placed under a machine and are apparently really runny as said by the cash attendent. I sat outside. Nice beautiful day. read more

On Toast is pricey. I got the Steak, Egg, and Cheese open sandwich and it cost $13. If you want to make it a sandwich (meaning adding another piece of bread on top), you would need to pay $1 extra. If you are looking for a very small meal and don't mind the price, this is a good option. Otherwise, I would definitely spend $13 on something else that can actually fill me up. read more

I'm so glad I was finally able to try this place in Union Market! They're usually closed when I go late because I go really late, however I took the opportunity to try them when I was there pretty early. This grilled cheese sandwich was absolutely delicious! I would definitely come here again. It's so convenient that Union market is only a 10min walk from my apartment complex! read more

Love this place for breakfast! They have such a great variety. I got the mushroom goat cheese toast with pesto mayo. It was delicious. My husband was a bit more hungry so he got the steak and eggs toast. It was filling and yummy. Everything is great except for the wait. Just be conscious that you will not get your toast right away. read more

Honestly I didn't really wanna cough up $8 for a simple breakfast sandwich. I'd seen On Toast many times in Union Market, but I had never tried it. But on this particular morning, I found myself perusing the breakfast options (which were few) and I decided to give them a shot and OMG, I had been MISSING OUT!!! If anyone would've ever told me that I would one day find myself completely SMITTEN over a simple Bacon, Egg & Cheese (open-face) sandwich, I'd would've said they were lying! No way. Absolutely not. I mean, It's literally bacon, eggs and cheese on toast. For one, who could mess up bacon, eggs, cheese or toast?! (I mean a child could make that!) And for two, could a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich really be "fancy'?!... Well, I must say I was sadly mistaken! On Toast is fancy y'all! With the very first bite, I was overwhelmingly surprised with the rush of flavor. Each element was cooked to perfection and coupled with the spiked seasoning made for a phenomenal foodie experience. Throw on a lil' hot sauce and this fancy/simple sandwich knocks it outta the park! I know you may not be able to tell from the pics, but TRUST ME when I say that this sandwich is FIRE! I simply cannot believe that I've been missing out on such fantastic food for so long that's been right under my nose! If you've never been to On Toast, I'd highly recommend it. It's definitely worth it and I'll certainly be back! read more

Best breakfast sandwich at Union Market. Not expensive ($12 with bacon) but worth it. Very good and definitely fresh and quick.

This place is amazing! They have avocado toast With all of the different types of toppings you could ever watch! The service is great. The food as well, seasoned. And everything looks so pretty. Highly recommend! read more

The service was OK - there were two women working but while the one at the register visibly seemed frustrated the woman working the "BOH" was helpful and friendly. I ordered their smoke trout and sub. the cream cheese for avocado and this didn't seem problematic for the woman working "BOH" but for the woman at the register she did not seem to want to take my order at all. I'm glad I got to try their food because aside from one worker's disposition it is REALLY good avocado toast and who knew smoked trout was a thing?! I didn't but it was good! read more

Cute spot in Union Market. Staff was incredibly nice and helpful in letting us customize our orders and providing suggestions. Everything we tried was delicious and tasted fresh. It is a little pricey but if avocado toast is "your thing" it's at least worth a try. I usually walk right by this place since there are so many options around but I am happy that I decided to try it! The quality, flavors, seasonings (Za'atar!) and customer service all made it worth the price. It was also surprisingly filling as well. Win all around! read more

On Toast is a spot in Union Market with open face sandwiches, including of course avocado toast. It's possible to get the avocado toast with a poached egg and/or prosciutto. Service is slow but the ingredients are fresh and generous, especially the prosciutto. The flavoring of the avocado was decent but could use some vinegar and maybe pepper as well. It was a bit plain, even with the toppings, but still good. read more

We came to On Toast on a random Friday morning. I am so glad we stopped because it was absolutely delicious. The gentleman who took our order was fabulous and gave great suggestions. He also told us where the food was sourced from and how we can tell if bread is well made. I ended up getting the avocado toast with added steak and a poached egg. My boyfriend got the chorizo, egg, and cheese with added mushrooms and a side of bacon. The bread itself was so light but dense and hearty at the same time. The avocados were fresh and the spice they put on top was grade A. The steak was to die for and so glad I added it. My boyfriends sandwich was equally delicious and he loved the mushrooms. Overall, a great experience and I am happy to support businesses like this! read more

I frequent Union Market on the weekends but had never tried On Toast. This weekend, I am so glad I did! I ordered avocado toast with prosciutto and it was insanely delicious. I love the zaatar spice on the toast and the lime wedge added the perfect little extra something. The gentleman who took my order took the time to talk to me about where their prosciutto was sourced from and I really appreciated knowing they use only quality products with ingredients you can actually pronounce. On Toast is so delicious, that I came back this morning for some more avocado toast. It definitely says a lot about a place to go there two days in a row. This will be my new Union Market spot! read more

On Toast - Avocado toast with prosciutto. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

A stand in Union Market that sells toast? I was skeptical. However, after breakfast at On Toast, I am a fan. Here's why: 1) Food: It's just good. You can get basic avocado toast, toast with eggs and bacon, or something more fancy like chorizo toast (I highly recommend this- you'll crave it later). 2) Price: Compared to other stands in the market, this is a good deal for a filling breakfast. 3) Staff: They are friendly. If you want a good, filling breakfast in Union Market, go to On Toast! read more

Came to the food hall by mistake but came upon this gem. The customer service was great and although it was a bit of a wait for my food, it was worth it. I paired this bad boy with an iced coffee from another vendor across the way. All this needed was some siracha or Mayo. It was a tad dry by the time I got to the office (10 minute drive) which was understandable. read more

The service was good the people working there seem very nice! That being said they charge $16 for an Italian beef - which is outrageously overpriced - and their "wet" Italian beef is still extremely dry. The beef is also not particularly flavorful. The hot giardiniera was delicious though!!! Just avoid the italian beef if you've had a good one before. read more

OVERALL: pretty good toast place. I'm a fan of the scrambled eggs, but bacon could be done better. Kind of hard to eat though. Would probably come back again. I came here with some friends and decided on this place because it looked pretty good and had a decent selection of toast. I waited around 10 mins for my food, which was pleasant, because it seemed like they were super busy and would take longer. The price was also great, compared to other places in Union Market, which can be a lot more expensive. The food itself was good - I ordered a BLT with scrambled egg (you can choose either poached or scrambled) and the best thing for me were their scrambled eggs, which were fluffy and warm, yet not super buttery. The bacon was probably the most mediocre thing on the toast. It was too thick for my liking and not crispy enough. Despite that though, I still enjoyed my meal. Next time, I'll probably eat with a fork and knife though, because eating it like a sandwich will cause you to drop everything on the toast. read more

Love this place as I am a big fan of avocado toast! I will say it's really pricy even for just a basic piece of toast with avocado and feta (no frills). It is super good though the bread really ties it all together! I wish they had more toping options that weren't egg/meat based! read more

So glad they added Chicago hot dogs to the menu. Only place in DC with a steamed Vienna Beef dog (the right way to cook it). Poppy seed buns. Great move by On Toast--highly recommend giving it a try (especially if watching The Bear has you craving a dog or beef)! read more

Solid place to grab lunch at Union Market. I had the avocado toast with a poached egg and a side of home fries. Together, they were enough to satisfy for a midday meal. While it isn't the best avocado toast I've ever had, the service is fast and efficient. I was a bit skeptical of the poached egg and it turned out to be cold and a bit off texture wise. While it may look good, I would recommend trying some of their other options. The bread was a bit soggy under the weight of the toppings; however, the home fries were excellent. read more

Solid breakfast vibe. A place you don't have to feel guilty about for ordering a sandwich and not eating one slice of the bread because you are going low carb. This is the place where it is all open face sandwiches. In other words, stuff on a piece of toast. I had the pesto avocado toast with a poached egg. Hubby had the bacon, egg and cheese toast. Both quite good! My only quibbles would be that the wooden knife and fork were not strong enough to cut through the thick sourdough of my toast, and I did want to use a knife and fork since the poached egg was super runny. Also my toast was a tad burnt on one corner, but I understand that some people feel that burnt toast is actually a flavor enhancement. I think the pesto toast is a brilliant idea and something I could do at home, though not as well as it is done here at On Toast. read more

I had the Classic Avacado Toast on sourdough bread (1/2 an avocado, feta, za'tar herb mix for $7. Yes, I know $7 is a lot to cough up for breakfast at a pop-up, but those herbs make this avocado toast SO good! Because of the price it's probably something I wouldn't be able to afford all the time, but it's definitely a "treat yo' self" kind of sandwich. I'll definitely get one again! read more

Came here for breakfast on a Monday and there was only one person ahead of me but it still took forever to get my order taken. It was understandable since there was only one person working but I'm only giving it 2 stars because when I got my order, it looked like this and the pesto was a bit bitter and the bread was burnt in the corner. read more

PBJ? Avocado toast? Unicorns, anyone? Would you like prosciutto with that? Somehow we came to the Union Market at 9:40 on a Saturday morning. Most of the stalls were still closed, but these guys had a solid line in front of them. Menu options were so cool, it was a no brainer for us - and I ended up having one of the best breakfasts in weeks! My friend and I split the smoked trout and of course the avo option - flavorful toppings on a crunchy toast, both were just perfect, and oh so close to home. Also, it seems you can add a runny egg and prosciutto to just about anything. Glad to see a few new places at the Union Market! read more

I decided to get my brunch here while my family went to other places in Union Market. There was a line which wasn't too surprising giving the time on a Saturday (11:45) and the market was packed. What was unexpected was the 35mins wait for food -- by which time my whole family had completely finished their meals. When I finally was served it was really a bit disappointing. I ordered the trout which I though was going to be trout but it was salmon trout so basically tasted like smoked salmon. A mediocre piece of toast with some smoke salmon and a barely warmed poached egg tasted ok but certainly not worth the price. The scrambled eggs on toast did look a little more plentiful that what I got, still expense and slow, but may be a little better. read more
