My "Go-to" brunch spot when I'm in Georgia! My first time in March 2025 didn't disappoint and my second time, December 2025, didn't either. The second time I came back we were greeted with a 30-min wait, which was expected due to the weekend and peak hour. But to our surprise we were actually seated within 15-minutes. While we waited, I used the restroom for the first time and it was clean and smelled fresh with cute decor. We were served with drinks right away and our server was very pleasant and accommodating. We looked at the menu beforehand, but last minute my husband and I decided to try recommended dishes. Here's our spread: Strawberry Short stack - 5/5 Sausage and egg biscuit with - 4/5 Cowboy omelette - 5/5 Chicken & Waffles - 5/5 Philly Fries Meal - 5/5 Bottomless Sweet Tea - 5/5 The pancakes were moist and fluffy with the right amount of sweetness. My daughter swore she'd eat the entire stack, but of course we knew otherwise. My mother in law enjoyed the sausage and egg biscuit, the sausage was a little more well done than she'd like but everything was seasoned well. The Philly fries were a surprise due to its massive size. My family demolished it. It was seasoned well with the right balance of meat, onions and cheese, my daughter wanted to it all by herself lol. The Cowboy omelette was also massive. The eggs cooked well stuffed with all the fixings - they definitely didn't skimp on it. Topped with fresh guacamole and salsa it was a delight. The chicken and waffles was recommended by our server and my husband was amazed by the whole dish. The balance of sweet and salty and the textures were perfect. The crunch of the chicken didn't take away from the moist meat. He created his "perfect bite" with a piece of chicken and waffles and it was heavenly. I'd definitely get it for myself next time. The waffle had a slight bite but also moist. I've experienced dry waffles before and this proved otherwise. Overall the experience was great. The service was excellent especially during a rush hour. Also we were very happy to see the Christmas decor. It really felt like a hometown feel and we enjoyed every minute. Definitely have Oy! on your list for brunch with the family! I'd visit once a week if I could. read more

Came here for brunch on Saturday and the place was pretty busy, as expected. We waited about 45 minutes before getting seated. The atmosphere was lively. We ordered a few different dishes including steak and eggs, French toast, pancakes with bacon, and a burger with fries. The steak was cooked nicely, but it was a little tough. The French toast was thick and tasty, but it tasted more like bread pudding to me--it wasn't as light and fluffy as traditional French toast. The pancakes were simple but good. Portions were generous and definitely filling. Overall, the food was good, but not quite as impressive as I had expected. I also wish their juice was fresh squeezed. Overall, it's a solid brunch spot, but with a few small improvements it could be even better. read more

It's been a while since our last visit, and we were glad we came at the right time before the crowd started to build. The restaurant still has a great vibe, and the food continues to impress. We ordered the cinnamon pancakes, which were just okay--decent for the price but not particularly memorable. The pulled pork hash, however, was very flavorful, and the meat was tender, especially with a drizzle of queso. The server asked if we would like queso on it since she recommended it. The power diet omelette was also delicious, and the salsa on the side tasted fresh and homemade. That said, the service this time did not meet our expectations. During our previous two visits, the service was exceptional, so we were surprised by the difference. Our server, Julia, was not very attentive--we had to look for her or ask others just to get coffee refills. One thing that stood out was the additional charge for queso and salsa ($1.25 each), which wasn't mentioned when we ordered. It would have been nice to have that communicated upfront. Overall, the food is still very good, and we enjoy the atmosphere. We will likely return, but probably not go out of our way for it like we might have before. read more

Come hungry!! Spent Galentines Brunch at Oy! I actually got a burger! It was quite yummy! Not a huge burger, but just the size for lunch. My friend's pancake - the size of a medium pizza! The omelette could feed 3! The place was packed - it was a Sunday! So come prepared to wait a bit and they don't have much in the way of a waiting area. But they will text you - you could wait from the comfort of your car! I want to go back and try a specialty pancake - but someone will need to share! read more

Went to Oy! for brunch and overall had a great experience. The wait was long -- a little over an hour -- and they don't take reservations, so definitely plan ahead. Luckily there's a park nearby where we hung out until our table was ready, which made the wait a lot easier. For food, we had to try their famous 14-inch blueberry pancake, and it did not disappoint. It's basically like an entire stack fused into one giant pancake -- massive, fluffy, and packed with blueberries. We split it between two people and it was more than enough. We also tried the Farmer's Omelette with a biscuit, which was hearty and flavorful. The blue cheese fries were surprisingly delicious -- crispy, tangy, and super addictive. And the side of mac and cheese with toppings was so creamy and rich, definitely one of the standout dishes. read more

Oy! definitely lives up to the hype. The pancakes here are massive and ridiculously good! We visited to celebrate our little foodie's 1st birthday, she's a total breakfast maniac..so Oy! felt like the perfect choice. We arrived right at 8 a.m., were warmly greeted, and seated immediately. Our server was friendly and attentive from start to finish. Our toddler ordered the kid's strawberry pancake, which was unbelievably huge! He absolutely loved it, and we had plenty to take home. Hub's with the Power Diet, and boy it was hearty, flavorful, and super satisfying. I had Pulled Pork Hash, which was outstanding. The pork was tender, the onions perfectly caramelized, and the eggs cooked sunny side up just right. One tap and that golden yolk ran beautifully. For our birthday girl, we couldn't resist the Cinna-Yum Pancakes..giant, fluffy, and loaded with pecans. Worth every bite and calories! Oy! exceeded our expectations. With such a creative menu, even someone as picky as me found something amazing. We'll definitely be back! read more

Great food and huge portions! Gluten free pancakes and bread. Friendly staff. Only complaint and reason for only 4 stars is the bathrooms are gender neutral and always gross! I walk to Publix to use theirs instead. lol Otherwise, excellent food! read more

I think we just came during a rush time (1pm on a Sunday), right after church. We were 21st on the waiting list and quoted a 45-minute wait. It ended up being about 45-50 minutes, so they were accurate. After 20 minutes, we were able to sit on the waiting benches instead of standing, which helped since it was cold outside at the end of October. The cold brew with hazelnut (as someone suggested) was perfectly sweet, no whipped topping for me, and it was the best! The potatoes were peppery and delicious. The Power Diet omelet was piping hot and really good; K liked it a lot. Unfortunately, the bacon was burnt on JO's BLT, and my side of bacon was also overdone. I sent mine back, but the server said the rest of the batch looked the same, so I cancelled it. That's the only reason this is a 4 star instead of a 5 star review. The grits were decent, even better mixed with ketchup, eggs, and sausage. JO's macaroni was creamy but could use a little of whatever seasoning is on those potatoes, it would really make it pop! Our server, Ye, was great, friendly and attentive. I don't normally like pancakes, but theirs are really good, and the plate was piping hot. K ordered the strawberry pancakes and loved them. Those pancakes are huge! Overall, I'd definitely come back, just hoping for a less busy time next visit. read more

We came on a Thursday morning around 930. There were a good number of people in there, but we were seated and served right away. The host was very nice. We saw him bring a lady waiting for her friends a drink while she sat at the door. The one thing we didn't like as they have all those hard metal chairs that a lot of restaurants are getting lately. Thankfully, there was one with a bench open so we could sit on the padding because no one likes those cold hard chairs. The strawberry pancake that was supposed to be small and 7 inches was absolutely huge and needed a pizza box to go. You could tell that the strawberry pancake was made in-house. It had strawberry compote and strawberries inside the batter. The American breakfast was good. The eggs were nice and cheesy, the potatoes had good flavor, but they were definitely over-seasoned. The biscuit was very fresh & bacon was good. The bathrooms were nice and clean. If they added brubch cocktails it would be even better! read more

So, I don't know how helpful this review will be. But we tried this wonderful establishment today, food came out in 4 mins. I forgot to take pictures because it looked so good. I had the lemon zest pancake with blueberry compote added, and I'll never do anything else. Wife loved her food as well. Will be back! read more

Finally got to try this place. We came on a Sunday around 2pm. It was busy but the wait was short. It was pretty loud. The pancakes are huge! I tried the pancake of the month, Biscoff, and it was really good. My toast was so good too. Loved the eggs and the bread. The blueberries were fresh. I would definitely come back. read more

Came here to brunch with a friend and wow it gets packed! I've seen this place pop up on instagram primarily for their large pancakes. There's plenty of parking in the complex and a good amount of seating on the inside. We got there closer to 11 and was seated quickly since there was an empty spot. We both started off with some lattes and decided to split one of their big pancakes, avocado toast and some breakfast potatoes. The blueberry pancake was super fluffy and loved the jam that it came with which seemed super fresh! The avocado toast was okay and nothing extraordinary and probably wouldn't get again. The breakfast potatoes were delicious and really loved the seasoning on there and how crispy they were. Overall, a pretty decent brunch spot and can't wait to come back and try some more pancakes! read more

Wish I could give it a 3.5. It looked fairly busy so I wasn't surprised that my friend and I had a 20 min. wait, but then it turned into 30 minutes and we watched other pairs of two get seated before us. Turns out the hostess "forgot" about us, and then we were seated in direct line near the front door so everybody coming in and out let in blustery wintery cold windy air at us, which made the whole dining experience uncomfortable. The server was pleasant and my omelet and biscuit were MASSIVE. My buddy ordered a pancake in a size that I've never seen before, so I think that's more of a novelty as it didn't really taste all that great. I didn't have the opportunity to look around or use the restrooms, but everything appeared neat and clean. The overall feel is pretty on par with a J Christophers or First Watch - nothing remarkable but just a hearty good breakfast. Not necessarily a repeat that I'd go out of my way to do again, but not bad. read more

Oh my gosh, don't you just love it when you discover a new restaurant? That's the way I felt when I found this breakfast spot, that was convenient for a meet up with my girl pals! OY! What a superb name for a cool place! A popular spot with the locals as it was packed at 10:00 a.m., on a Friday morning. We only waited 5 mins and were seated in a comfy place. The decor is county chic with natural wood tones, a casual place you'll like to hangout with your pals! Show up with an empty stomach because the portions are enormous!Omelettes looked like they could feed a family of four! Most people left with to-go boxes. I ordered light just good ole' grits and some fried potatoes. Me and my table mates all liked our food and plan to return soon! Amelia was our server, attentive and no rush when we finished our food and wanted to chat a bit. read more

This place is a hidden gem! ( well, maybe not that hidden because it was packed!) Even with a wait, it was only about 15 -20 minutes before we were seated. Even with it packed, there was quite a bit of room to move about. In other words, I didn't feel shoved in a corner. It was a bright dining room also, which is nice. The staff was wonderful and service was excellent. It is mostly breakfast/brunch but the food was amazing! Prices were excellent for the portion size. I ordered the biscuits and gravy and let me tell you, it was fantastic. Huge cathead biscuits with some gravy, although, I would definitely order some extra gravy because that portion was a tad bit small. It comes with a side of chopped potatoes, which were also fantastic. I will definitely be back! Delicious! read more

Food is excellent and the pancakes are huge. My wife enjoyed a salad. Minor issue was strawberries were left off. Waiter brought out some and overall all was good. Service and food are good. I enjoyed an omelette with grits. Will go again when I'm the area read more

Xavier was amazing! Food was delicious! I'm gf so it was nice to have the option! Honestly, I like my homemade gf pancakes. The bacon was amazing!! The eggs were amazing!!! We usually like fist watch but this was many steps above First Watch! I love it because it's not a cooperation! Going tomorrow to get the grits!! Oh, pancakes are HUGE! Try this place, you won't be disappointed!! read more

LAWD HAB MERCY!!!!!! The girlfriend and I have been dying to try this restaurant. Every time we drive by, there is a line, and the parking lot is completely packed. So we finally decided to go but we wanted to go during the middle of the week and early because the weekends are OFF DA CHAIN... does anybody say that anymore? I digress.... when we entered the hostess was amazing. She was very pleasant; however, Alexandra "Alex" was super cool and made sure we knew everything about the establishment. It was my first time, and I was truly overwhelmed by the options. The girlfriend went with the "American Breakfast," which included a pancake, grits, scrambled eggs, and potatoes. I went with the Cajun Omelet with a biscuit and that dag on sausage and gravy. Lawd, hush my mouth. The ginormous pancake is a meal in itself. So you certainly should have a to-go box unless you have a huge appetite. I mean, I can't even begin to tell you how amazing this food was. I am at a loss for words. Shoot, my mouth is salivating just sitting here typing this review. Good food is always complimented by good service, which just takes the entire experience to another level. Alex was absolutely amazing, and she made us feel right at home. Her humor was so genuine that we talked about her all the way home. So, to the management team, kudos on hiring her--you certainly got that one right! Let me tell you all that if you don't do anything else this week/weekend, or whenever you have time, you all need to check out Oy. I promise you won't be disappointed. When you stop by, tell'em Drew sent you! Y'all be easy! Drew read more

These might be the best biscuits in Gwinnett county. Ultra buttery and fluffy with a crisp exterior. Their homemade strawberry jam is a perfect pair. Our server was very nice and our food came out FAST. Philly fries were rich and filling. The pancakes go up to the size of a literal pizza and can feed 4 people easily. The flavor and texture isn't compromised even at that large of a size. Their sausage gravy is worth the upcharge. We all enjoyed our meals and this will be a staple brunch spot for us. Probably top 5 brunch in Gwinnett county as well. read more

Decided to give this spot a try since my daughter was craving pancakes and did not disappoint! Place was nice and clean, table was clean and had plenty of condiments! Our server was nice and kept up with us! We ordered an Oreo Milkshake and strawberry short stack pancakes (they were the size of a small pizza), and the 8oz steak and eggs with fried potatoes and all was good! Steak was really tender and well seasoned, potatoes nice and crispy, and scrambled eggs were nice and fluffy. Got a coffee to drink but it was weak in my opinion. But will be back to try more menu items! read more

We have been here twice now and I think the food just might be a little over rated. The pancakes are actually very dry ! And I got an omelette both times and they were very runny and tasteless .

Parking was easy, we went on a Friday afternoon and it wasn't too busy and were seated immediately. The food and drinks came out super quick and the restaurant is quaint and cute. Absolutely loved the food here, the staff were nice and welcoming. The latte and hot chocolate were really good, the 7in pancake was huge, the sides were great and the special of the day was a good portion and tasty. Prices were great and portions are a good size. I wish they had mimosa's here though! I definitely will be back to try other menu items. read more

The food is generally good here, but as of late things have been a bit rushed. Omelettes are over cooked but the pancakes are delicious in the size of Cleveland stay away from the Grits. They are horrible. Most people complain about them, but the owner won't do anything about it. He seems to like the recipe, but around here folks aren't buying it I have yet to meet a person that likes the grits here , take the hint! read more

Food is way too salty. The service was good. I mentioned the last time we ate there that it was too salty, but it has not improved.

I would give it 5 stars but we were RUSHED by our sever yesterday. It was very uncomfortable... to the point of dropping off our check TWICE. Food was delicious! Flavor was on point. Coffee wasn't the best, as I prefer fresh espresso in my latte. read more

A very good breakfast restaurant in our location shut down for reasons other than bad food or service. We had to find something else, and we found Oy! Restaurant. God help me, I don't know how we didn't find this place before, but it's no more than 3 miles away from one of the other places we go once or twice a month. Oy! is really good AND not priced like most other breakfast/lunch places. The staff has been great so far and have been on top of our every need. The one problem I've found is consistency. I order the same thing every time. The home fries are delicious, but the last time I ordered them, they came out with zero seasoning, the whole reason they're so scrumptious, a flavored pancake was brought out when I ordered plain, and that's after the pancake was forgotten. Luckily that was during one meal, but the others have been super. We're trying lunch there also because of how good everything has been. read more

For me this place was a disappointment. The food was okay but not good or great. I got the biscuits and gravy and it was obvious that the gravy was not homemade and they just put some precooked sausage into the gravy. My wife got a omelette and it was a good size. Also no Coke Zero. Diet Coke is not the same. read more

Amazing food! Delicious Pancakes and the recommendation of biscuits and gravy was FENOMENAL

Very busy on the weekends, Go Early it's so worth it! The staff is super friendly and helpful, they played peek a boo between the coffee area at my daughter when she was watching them. The food is fantastic and worth any minor wait you may have. My husband wanted pancakes for his birthday and they didn't disappoint at all, the staff was so nice about simple changes my husband wanted to make to his pancake, really made his morning Our little girl actually ate everything we offered her which hardly never happens when we go places with her so that's saying something too Support small business and try them, it worth it. The staff was even helpful with what we wanted and how it could be priced together which actually saved us money. Overall it's about $25-30 a couple (depending on foods, and drinks you order) read more

I don't know what drug or additive they use in their signature pancakes, but its become me and my Husbands favorite morning date spot. We crave the Lemon Zest Pancake on the regular. Their breakfast options are one to beat for sure. Laura and Shea are so attentative to your needs and informative about the establishment they serve for! 10/10 would recommend.

Update 5/29/2024-We have been going to Oys for the past year since moving to buford city. We were utterly disappointed today. The omelet my husband got was premade. It was lukewarm at best and tasted like it was made at least 30 min advance. My son's bacon was so overdone it tasted burnt. He took one bite. We come here for the crisp on the outside and cake soft inside pancakes, but today... the pancakes were extremely tough and chewy. We couldn't cut through the pancake with our butter knives. I paid and tipped well as it's not the servers fault, but we wont be back for a long while. We told the server as we were leaving that we were disappointed. read more

Quick food and attentive service. The Reuben and BLT were standard and decent. The fries were okay -- over seasoned at times. The Cobb salad was sad. The mac and cheese was creamy but flavorless and unsalted. The cinnamon pancakes were... odd. We couldn't figure out if it was under sweetened batter or over spiced but it was weird. It was over $90 for 4 people and one was a kid. Not worth the cost at all. read more

We've been meaning to stop in for at least a year. Found the time to do so today. The wait wasn't too long, only about 20 minutes or so on a Sunday at noon. The service was prompt and kind, and the place was packed and energetic. The food, unfortunately, was entirely forgettable. The biscuits were like stones in my stomach and the gravy was tasteless. My kid said his pancake was ok, but kind of bland and he didn't really want to eat the bacon, because he said it tasted weird. Just not anything that would make me want to go out of my way to spend money here. It's got to be crave-able for me to spend money on something I can make at home for a fraction of the price. Really good service though! read more
