    I wanted to like this place a lot but the service is a bit lackluster. The food is decent and portions are large. My pancake was a bit undercooked. This place has a lot of potential if they can tighten up their service game.

    I believe this was the Cobb Salad with crispy chicken.  Yellow drink was mango juice and coral colored was watermelon juice.

    I will always enjoy dining here. It's simple menu items yet so fun to eat. Our waiter was great he was attentive. It's always a good vibe in there. Food delicious as always.

    I was really excited to try Toast 101 with some friends for breakfast on Saturday morning (we got there around 9), and overall it was a good experience with a few minor hiccups. I originally wanted to order the donut flight, but they were out of donuts, which was a bit of a bummer especially on an early Saturday morning. I pivoted to the cinnamon roll board instead. The cinnamon rolls were amazing! The orange zest garnish instantly took me back to being a kid and loving those orange cinnamon rolls from the can, except these were next level and beautifully presented. The ooey gooey frosting topping was generously applies and so yummy! I also ordered the French Toast Flight and it was awesomely delish! I chose the New Yorker, the Nutella Overload, and the Banana Foster. The cheesecake on the New Yorker was chef's kiss. The Nutella Overload had the best granola garnish that added such a great texture. The Banana Foster with the maple rum butter spread and caramel drizzle was top tier. Everything came out on a really cool board that made it perfect for sharing so everyone at the table could try a little of each. I was especially impressed with the quality of the fruit. The strawberries were plump, juicy, and sweet, and the bananas were perfectly ripe and not mushy at all. The kitchen timing was a bit off, the rest of the table got their food but my board didn't come out until well after, so that could be improved on. Also a quick side note that I tried the biscuits off of a friends dish and they were really good. It was interesting because they're actually grilled or toasted on the grill and it made for a really tasty crunch. I was a little skeptical at first because of the size, but don't let that fool you and try them because they were tasty. The gravy was also pretty good not my absolute favorite, but it did the trick and the biscuits really made it shine. The interior has a cool vibe. I loved the faux green walls and the modern (and sometimes cheeky) decor. We were able to get a table right away because we went early, but the place filled up quickly and it's easy to see why. The food really is good. The exterior is a bit funky, peeling paint and faded signage and could use a bit of work. Service was so-so, our server was trying to be one of those funny/snarky personalities except it caused him to miss a lot of what we were saying...so lots of repeating and having to ask twice for things. He had accidentally entered and served an incorrect dish on one of the tickets at our table, and said he would remove it, but it was still on the bill when it came out. I appreciate personalities, but just a focus on the basics of service would have honestly made it a better experience. Overall, a decent experience with great food and just a couple issues. I would definitely go back, and next time I'm hoping to finally try that donut flight :)

    Great service. They only have deep fried potatoes. No other options. No hash browns. No pan fried potatoes. Ugh. The over easy eggs came out ice cold. Like out of the fridge cold. They made another batch. One medium the other easy. But warm to hot. Corned beef hash was not crispy on the outside. Kind of soft and runny. Maybe because there were more potatoes than corned beef. Lacked flavor. The country fried steak was delicious. Gravy good. Biscuit. Pretty good. Pretty expensive for what we received.

    Bacon Board Trio
    Ashley C.

    I came here last Saturday with some family and order the Carnitas skillet, which was amazing!! my husband got the country fried chicken and he liked that as well. Someone else at our table got the chorizo skillet which they did not prefer. I tasted it and it wasn't bad, but I felt they could have added some peppers, some egg, etc.... My skillet next to that one was so much more evolved and delicious. Our server had great energy and was fun, I can't remember his name though. The only disappointment came from the bacon Board trio, and which one of the bacon flavor seemed to be charred to oblivion. I almost didn't even seem like meat. I thought about sending it back but others at the table felt they could still eat it so I let it go. But if you look at the picture of this bacon compared to the last time I ordered it, you will see the very vast difference.

    Dropped into Toast 101 for brunch on a whim. We had a 20 minute wait, but the waiting area inside was nice and the 20 minutes flew by. The "Good-enough-to-go-back-for": Bloody Mary flight (Bloody Pickle for the win!); Irish Iced Coffee; French Toast with Cinnamon syrup; our booth. The "Skipping-that-on-our-next-visit": Chicken & Waffles. Loved our booth and will request it again if it's available. A note: Most people with gluten/wheat sensitivity/allergy might instinctively stay away from a place caleed "Toast 101." Even our server said something to that effect. There are very few gluten/wheat-free options. Even the potatoes have wheat. So keep in mind that the options may be limited to basically eggs, bacon and fruit.

    First I'd like to say my husband has been wanting to come here for such a long time and I was always undecided about it. Well.... We will 100% be back soon. We were greeted right away and shown to our seats. They have different areas which is nice because our first booth was too cold for me. Our server was on point and always made sure our drinks were filled. The food came out fast and everything was delicious, hot and fresh! The seasoned country potatoes were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. My waffle was tasty with their house syrup. You can't go wrong at Toast 101.

    BLT and tater tot's
    Ashley M.

    The service was great here! The tater tot's with my BLT were so crispy and delicious. The New York cheesecake French toast is very sweet so you have to have a sweet tooth for these. I myself have a big sweet tooth so I did enjoy these. My boyfriend really enjoyed the hangover skillet and the charred jalapeño was a nice touch. The place overall looks a little dated and run down in my opinion but overall good food and good service.

    Greetings from staff were friendly. Food came out in a very short time. Food flavored. Restaurant was clean.

    The New Yorker
    Vanessa S.

    We ordered the Corned Beef Hash, expecting something similar to the photo on the menu. Unfortunately, what we received looked and tasted exactly like canned corned beef hash. The presentation and texture were nothing like the restaurant's photo. When we mentioned this to our server, she initially said that maybe the recipe had changed. We explained that the dish didn't resemble the menu picture and seemed like canned food. She then said she would ask the chef, and later came back saying the chef told her it was "homemade." However, it really looked and tasted like the canned version. The most disappointing part was that we were not allowed to return the dish or have it removed from the bill, even though it clearly wasn't what we expected from a restaurant plate. On a positive note, the New Yorker French Toast we ordered was actually very good. However, the overall experience was frustrating. On top of everything, a processing fee was added to our bill, which made the situation even more disappointing. Ordering a restaurant dish and receiving something that seems like canned food, with no option to return it and additional fees added to the bill, left us with a very poor impression.

    The 101 Stack -strawberry & whipped cream topped pancakes
    John C.

    We decided to give Toast 101 a try last Sunday and were surprised how busy they were. We were after a simple breakfast but most of their items were their "specialty" dishes. We chose the 101 Stack which featured pancakes with whipped cream and strawberries. Our waitress, Da, accommodated my request for heated syrup (wish it was real maple) and provided an ample glass full. This dish really needed the syrup. We would taste rate the pancakes average for Tucson and filling given their ample size. Da was superlative in keeping our coffees full at all times and the coffee was a decent quality. She made the visit enjoyable. The ambiance was better than we expected from the outside view but the interior was somewhat crowded.

    French Toast Flight
    Joshua M.

    I'd never been before. We arrived 30mins before closing and initially took a little bit more time than I'm used to waiting. Nonetheless our server came over and because we knew it was so close to closing we were ready with our drink and food orders. Our food was brought out within 10-15 mins of ordering. The plating as seen in my photos was amazing and added to the overall experience. The overall taste was even better! We had the New Yorker, Nutella, and Crunch toast needless to say there were no survivors. Same with the bacon board! All in very decently priced too. Was definitely great food, great experience and oddly very different look and appeal from the inside out vs the outside in. Can't wait to go back!

    Veggie Skillet and Peach Mimosa
    Lauren R.

    Great place for brunch. The restaurant itself is modern and open, they have lots of seating and booths (which I love). Their menu is huge, and they serve both breakfast and lunch options all day. Plus they have many brunch drinks, next time I want to try their pickle Bloody Mary and Cinnamon Toast Crunch shot. I had the veggie skillet with bacon, and my boyfriend got their cook try skillet. Both fantastic! Only thing is their wasn't much gravy on his skillet, but you can easily ask for a side! We will be back!

    Gluten free options?

    I never asked if there are gluten free bread replacement options but there are some delicious meal options, bowls, skillets, etc that are gluten free. I had a sweet potato skillet that was delicious.

    Is there call ahead seating?

    I think you can call ahead because the hostess told us there were some tables that were reserved.

    It was my hub's birthday and he chose Transplant because he was in the mood for pizza. We met…read morefamily there, so we had a table of 9. This was our first visit to Transplant but it won't be our last. You order at the counter and they bring everything to your table. There is a soda fountain, so you can refill at your leisure. I'm not a huge fan of Pepsi products but they also had 3 flavors of Stubborn Soda which is fantastic. The atmosphere was modern and clean but I will say that having a couple plus size people in our party, the chairs weren't very comfortable. There was a bar area on the other side but I didn't notice if the chairs were the same. With a party of nine all arriving at different times and ordering apps and pizza at different times, we kept the food flowing. For apps, the fried pickles were amazing, as well as the parmesan fries. They do not skimp on the fresh Parm which is a huge plus in my book. There are four in our immediate family, so we ordered three 8x10's. We definitely would have been fine with three pizzas but since it was our first time, we wanted to try a third flavor. We ordered a supreme, an elote and a sweet & spicy. After one piece of the sweet and spicy, I decided my second and final piece would be the same because it was utterly amazing. It also had many ingredients we use and love at home in our wood-fired pizza oven, like San Marzano tomatoes and Mike's hot honey. I tasted the elote pizza and thought it rather bland. I've had elote pizza at a downtown establishment and theirs was far more flavorful. I didn't sample the supreme but my hub liked it. We loved the crust on the pizzas too! All in all, we were happy with our food and the atmosphere. The staff were also exceptionally friendly and helpful. We'll definitely be back for more!

To enhance a day of watching football and to support a local business, we ordered two pizzas, Garlic Gone Wild and the Mexican Street Corn. I made the order at ~1130 and we were the only patrons in the establishment. The pizzas were ok and I thought the crust was flavorful. I also thought it was expensive as the two pies came to ~$70. The place has promise, and it starts with friendly staff taking orders. I like the decor.
