Robert and Gabby were great! They were so attentive and provided amazing customer service!

Came in for the first time, it wasn't packed but the appetizers did take a bit to come out. The food and drinks were good but it was a bit odd that when we received the bill the tip was not printed on and the waiter wrote it in on the bottom and 18%. I have never seen this before which I didn't really like because I didn't see anything about a gratuity percentage for parties larger than 4 or 6. We still paid the bill in full including the tip but we still left unsure of it. Update: I was contacted by the owner and after the issue with the waiter adding his own tip, I was refunded that money back. Thank you for correcting this and hopefully it does not happen to others. We will definitely come again. read more

Today was great day to come in for brunch! Not packed but a few diff parties were seated. 1st time here! So when we walked in I was super impressed with the quality of decor and quantity of seating! **just be careful of their swinging door- swings fast & both directions -DONT STAND TOO CLOSE ** We were seated almost immediately and then assisted by Carolina who was nice , eager and knowledgeable. We got YUMMY drinks , kinda reminiscent of Aguas frescas ! I recommend the cucumber lemonade!! Then we ordered our food also pictured! The French toast I got well done and it was so yummy like a hint of vanilla or something! The omelette was yummy fresh and perfect! Thanks to the chefs !! ** they have a large bar with tvs and drink specials (I saw all the fifa specials) - they also have outside seating and I can totally see them getting packed during games ** Thank you to everybody who brought our food and welcomed us in. It was very pleasant !! I'll def be back!! read more

Came here last Saturday with five of my girlfriends to celebrate a birthday, and unfortunately the experience was pretty disappointing. The service was extremely slow. We sat for over 20 minutes without anyone coming to our table, and eventually had to get up and figure out who our waiter even was. That's not the kind of start you want for a birthday celebration. The appetizer came out cold, and we had to send the garlic parmesan fries back. The margarita flight looked fun but was overly sweet and definitely lacking in alcohol. As for the food, most of our group agreed it was just okay and nothing memorable. The one standout was the short rib tacos--they were actually really good. The DJ was doing a great job and the atmosphere was finally picking up, especially with people getting involved in karaoke. Unfortunately, a short bald manager wearing glasses seemed to have an issue with it and shut it down, which completely killed the vibe. Overall, the service was poor, the food was mediocre, and the management left a bad impression. The short rib tacos were the only highlight. Based on this experience, I probably won't be back. read more

Stopped in with my family for Sunday breakfast. The place was already busy, but we were seated right away. The service was friendly and attentive, and the restaurant had a pleasing atmosphere. My husband and I both ordered the Nut-Bad Irish coffee. For food, he got the short rib enchiladas, I ordered the Barbacoa Benedict, and our son had the chicken tenders. The bite of his enchiladas I tried was good. The meat was tender and the sauce had good flavor. Unfortunately, my dish... had a long white wavy hair hanging over a side of the plate, when I pulled it, more of it was underneath the potatoes, which completely killed my appetite for the rest of the dish. I shouldn't be, but I get embarrassed to say anything, so I left that section of my potatoes aside. The benedict itself was okay, though the barbacoa was not dry, and the sauce gave it a good balance. The Nut-Bad Irish coffee was just alright. I found the nutmeg flavor way too overpowering with every sip, but my husband seemed to enjoy it more than I did. read more

Came here with a group of my gfs for my bday! Arrived right before 3pm for R&B brunch which was a blast. Great music, good vibes. They don't really want you up and dancing which is understandable but we managed. lol Good was a solid 7/10, they don't really offer brunch style food after 3 which is a bummer bc I really wanted to try their French toast and chilaquiles. Short rib pasta was mid 6/10 and burger was an average burger. I don't really come to places like this expecting the food to be 10/10 and I'm curious to know if the breakfast and brunch style food is better than the lunch/dinner options. Their unlimited mimosas are great but are time capped at 90 mins however our server made sure our bottle stayed full. Overall experience was an 8/10. Decent food, great vibes. read more

This place was really big and spacious, and I loved the overall vibe as soon as we walked in. When we were seated at our booth, the table was a little sticky, but we asked for a wipe down and they handled it right away with no issue. The menu was a bit intimidating at first (so many good options ), but I ended up going with the short rib enchiladas and they were pretty freaking good. Not a crumb left. My boyfriend got the short rib chilaquiles and he enjoyed his just as much. We also ordered the Flying Unicorn, which was super fun... it actually changes colors when you add the lemonade shot, so that was a cute little moment. It's definitely a great brunch spot, but the only downside was the wait for the check. We were completely done -- empty plates, just sitting there and still waiting for a while before it came. Aside from that, the experience was really good and I'd come back again! read more

I really enjoyed our brunch here. Reservations are a must and your party must be complete before they seat you. It can easily be located since its outside the mall. Parking is not an issue; you may have to walk a bit for its a busy mall. Food was good, menu was pretty much like your regular brunch spot. I had eggs benedict & it was perfect. I had their fried hash browns instead --- reminded me of piknik. it was really tasty. Convos were really intetesting & we were not asked to leave due to time which was really nice. It's not a big place and it can seat plenty. Good place to go for a weekend brunch. read more

I've been here several times with the girls for brunch, but this visit was for their Saturday R&B brunch with a DJ--and wow, it was packed! We arrived right at 3pm and were told there was a 1-1.5 hour wait, but we were seated sooner than expected, which was a nice surprise. The décor is upscale with darker tones, and there's seating inside and on the patio. You can hear the music throughout the restaurant, which really sets the vibe. Our server was great even with the high volume of guests. The food was good (I still prefer their breakfast menu), but the real star for me was the drinks--yesss, they were delicious! I would definitely come back, but next time I'll come early to be sure we get seated. There was a 90-minute time limit posted, but we weren't rushed at all. If you want good music, sing-along fun, and excellent drinks, Saturday brunch here is a great time with friends. read more

A really good brunch spot ; would definitely come again . The place is really pretty and the decor gives girly brunch. I'll have to bring my friends on day. There was just a little hiccup with the waitlist they weren't going by the waitlist I signed up on and letting other people go . But they informed me at a somewhat reasonable time and said to just tell them my name next time so I can be seated. Could've avoided the 30 minute wait but all good. The food definitely makes up for it . I got chicken and waffles which was so flavor and cooked perfectly. And the entree came with a warm maple bourbon syrup soooo good. My boyfriend got the breakfast burrito and it was soooo hearty. I believe it had sausage and bacon inside ; everything was mixed well and the avocado salsa on the side as a nice kick . Our drinks were strong sweet and good . read more

Wow! From the food to the decor and ambience. We came for breakfast pretty early in the AM, around 9ish so it wasn't too busy yet. We ordered the simple breakfast, chilaquiles, and French toast. Everything was so good and service was 5/5. It's so cute inside and they have a patio for nice days. Music was good as well. I can definitely see it getting busy. Absolutely recommend if you're in the area! read more

First time visiting Toast & we loved it! Came on a Tuesday morning at 10am & we're leaving around 12:45 after getting lit off bottomless mimosas lol, our server David was great!! He checked in on us, answered all questions, and helped us celebrate a friend's birthday. The restaurant was clean and they had good music playing. I will definitely be back for the Sunday R&B Brunch. read more

I came for the music and loved the appetizers. I honestly came all the way from Riverside to try the R&B brunch it was a birthday request of mine. We had a reservation for 3 and it was a piece of cake. We did not have to wait. The moment we stepped inside the restaurant though Toast felt a touch chaotic, like a party of people who forgot their playlists! A lot of big groups were waiting, and I wondered if they didn't have reservations. Either way the energy was buzzing. But then the appetizers hit the table and oh my, they were fire. The artichoke dip had a sly hint of jalapeño spice that kept things exciting and delicious, and the Goat Cheese Tomato Crostini was a hit the bread was cheesy and the sauce paired perfectly with the cheese we had to order more bread. I'll be dreaming of this deliciousness for a long time. I ordered "under pressure" and went for the fried chicken sandwich it's so big you could share I only ate half. The ambiance is fun especially after sharing a flight of Mimosas!!! The room feels like a party where everyone's celebrating to the same R&B playlist I adore. The music sets the mood and the servers keep the beat going. My only con would be to skip desert our cake tasted like old store bought cake not worth the price and no one had more than 1 bite. But its ok I'll be back for some more R&B brunch! read more

The Yelp review nobody asked for... but you're getting anyway I've heard about this spot a few times and seen it floating around on IG and TikTok, so when I found out they do a reverse brunch -bottomless mimosas starting at 3PM with a DJ, I was already intrigued. Day party energy? Say less. My coworker and I popped in on a random Saturday. She put us on the virtual waitlist, and we were seated pretty quickly -- love that for us. We sat outside on the patio and the vibe was actually really nice. Good music, good energy! Now... the food. I ordered the classic pancakes with fruit and house potatoes (jalapeños & cheese), and my coworker got the avocado toast with hash brown chips (also with cheese and jalapeños -- clearly we had a theme going). The potatoes? Solid. No complaints there. But the pancakes... came out with no syrup. None. Not a drizzle, I was confused. Do I ask?? By the time our server circled back (which took a minute), I was already over it. The fruit also wasn't fresh, so both the pancakes and fruit ended up being a no for me. My coworker's meal? Let's just say... it was edible. Not exciting, not terrible -- just there. Now let's talk about what they got RIGHT: the drinks. I had a lemon drop with tequila (yes, tequila ) and a couple shots, and they did not disappoint. Strong, cute, and exactly what I needed to shift the experience. Also, shoutout to the manager -- he was actively checking on tables and ended up removing the items we didn't eat, which I really appreciated. That level of attentiveness goes a long way. Final thoughts: I wouldn't come back for the food, but for the drinks, music, and vibes? Absolutely. Just eat beforehand and come ready to sip and socialize. P.S. Plenty of parking (a blessing) and there's a strict 90-minute dining limit -- so pace yourself accordingly read more

Super cute place. I ordered the chile verde chilequiles and they were delicious. The tortillas are freshly fried. Not spicy. Very good. I'm not a fan of eggs and asked for no eggs however they don't do alternatives. I ordered decaf hot coffee. They only have cold brews and hot coffee. No vanilla lattes. Different flavor of cold brews though. Seating was fast before 10 am. I met with my girlfriends at 9 am and it was already getting busy but we were seated fast. Waitress was 10/10. She was so friendly. I'd come back for sure. read more

This place is hopping on the weekends! We used to go to the Whittier location, but aside from the great food, the chairs are so uncomfortable that we stopped going there. This place is very different from that location! Comfy, big, spacious, and friendly, and great food! read more

I loved coming here during the week because it's not as loud during the weekend. I ordered the sliders and I definitely recommend this dish. We had a party of 10 and we were seated to the right in the aisle, so it felt a little tight next to the booths but people could still walk by. Overall a great experience. Everyone loved their dishes and drinks. Service was meh. Maybe because gratuity is already included for a large group? Not sure. FYI, they have a fee per person if you bring a cake to cut there. Silliest thing I've ever heard and nowhere else have we had this issue. Makes no sense! read more

I like this place because this is close to work and a lot of celebrations were held here with my colleagues! It's a huge place and there are tables for big parties. The service is really consistent as they would always check in with you during your dining. I've actually tried several items from the menu. My favorite is the the steak chimichurri. It's does not taste dry or your typical cheap steak you can get from diners. All servings is huge and kinda for sharing... well for me! Another new pick is this latest one I ordered! The egg benedict!! Their potatoes izzz always a go to!! I learned you can request to get a little more toasted and aaaah it's the best!!! If my order does not come with it, I always order one as a side. read more

I finally made it here for brunch as it has been on my list for a while. Came in on a Saturday and it wasn't too busy. Was sat down fairly quickly and was able to out in a drink choice pretty quickly (shout out to Iztel). Menu is very diverse and gives you many options from chilaquiles to typical eggs n bacon. Lives the many options for drinks as well. Plenty of non-alcoholic and craft cocktail drinks. Orders are big and won't leave you hungry. I do think flavors fell a little short on the food but especially the chilaquiles. Cocktails weren't bad, especially the Carajillo. Overall the ambiance was fun and lively inside and would def come back. read more

I went here last night to celebrate a birthday and we had a really good time. The music was awesome, our host was great and the food was good. The wait was pretty long, which was not ideal, but at least we had a good time. It was a lot of us, and some of our party was seated in another section, and the manager made accommodations for us to all be in the same area, which we really appreciate it. I will definitely be back. read more

Aesthetically pleasing . Food was the Issue . Ordered the Korean bbq lettuce wraps and the lettuce was dirty . You could literally see the soil and when I asked for a washed lettuce . We received a plate of just washed lettuce still dripping water . No acknowledgment or apology , just here you go . After that it's like we were totally forgotten about . I got my own to go containers and a different server dropped off the bill. Very disappointing read more

Food (4/5): This Mexican-American restaurant brings the flavor and the size to each dish. Their steak burrito was absolutely yummy! The steak was tender, well seasoned, and the filling made my mouth water. My favorite sauce was their chipotle mayo that tied everything together. My partner had the steak chilaquiles and he felt the chips were too soft but he ate every bit of the steak. Ambiance (4/5): Such beautiful decor! The vibes in here are giving grown millennial rocking to 2000s and 2010s R&B. The area itself is very spacious but near the window is unbearable! I was pretty squished and the sun from the outside was burning up my party. Service (5/5): Our server was awesome! She was very attentive and gave us what we needed with urgency. Price (4/5): i have to admit, she is pricey for gargantuan and delicious food but I found it worth it for my dish. I spent $22 for my steak burrito and took the other half home. The steak chilaquiles is priced at a whopping $39 read more

This place is definitely an upscale brunch place. Super cool interior and attached to Stonewood mall. They have plenty of seats and a big patio too. When you walk in there's a full bar and they even have mimosa specials Monday to Friday. Came for a birthday breakfast and it did not disappoint. Usually bunch spot skimp on the servings but these were HUGE. I ordered the biggest bowl of chilaquiles I've ever had. The flavor was good. Only missing was more meat but still fire. My wife ordered The chorizo omelette which was good too and our server was super quick and friendly. I for sure want to come back and try all the cocktails and brunch drinks they have next time read more

Everyone enjoyed their food. I had the breakfast burrito, it was so filling. I was only able to finish half because I had to finish my salad. That Caesar salad was delicious, the lettuce was fresh but the dressing was the real star of the show. I can't put hand on why their dressing tasted different from most Caesar dressings but it was bomb, I think it had a lil hint of lemon in it. We went on a week day so it wasn't busy but I think they were short staffed because it did take a little while for them to come over to us and take our order, but our waiter was cool. I want to go back and try the pancakes, they looked good. read more

I was disappointed with my experience at Toast in Downey. From the moment we sat down, our server came across as rude and unfriendly. He never introduced himself and seemed to have an attitude before we had even ordered anything. The service only got worse from there. After we finished our meal, we waited about 30 minutes for the check. We had to ask twice before it was finally brought to our table. It felt like we were being ignored, and what should have been a pleasant dining experience became frustrating. The food may have been fine, but customer service plays a huge role in the overall experience. Unfortunately, the poor service and lack of professionalism made this a place I would not rush back to. This was my first ever experience with bad service such a disappointment. read more

The server was attentive, he brought us to our table. It took us awhile and decide what to order as the menu is filled with amazing choices. I ordered the Denver omelette, my daughter has the avocado toast with eggs and beacon. To share with the table, we ordered the churro French toast. Everything tasted so good, portion was generous.

Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing due to the service. Our waitress was inattentive and slow throughout the meal. When we asked for a refill on our child's drink, she informed us there would be an additional charge, which was completely fine with us. However, she repeatedly emphasized the extra charge several times, and the way it was communicated felt rude and came across as though she was assuming we couldn't afford it. A simple explanation of the policy would have been sufficient. Good customer service includes treating guests with respect, and unfortunately that was not our experience during this visit. read more

We checked out Toast Kitchen & Bar in Downey for Sunday brunch with friends. I made the reservation through Yelp and even had to reach out via Instagram to adjust our party size, both platforms were easy, and the staff was very accommodating. This spot has a reputation online for brunch with DJs spinning hip-hop and R&B classics, and that's exactly what we got. The patio was packed, music was loud, and the energy was high. Even though our booth was inside in the corner, it was still buzzing. Definitely not a quiet brunch atmosphere, but it works if you're in the mood for a lively scene. Our server, Yetla, took great care of us. We started with drinks: jalapeño cucumber margarita, strawberry peach specialty margarita, cantarito, espresso martini, and a hibiscus margarita. I especially liked the espresso martini, it hit the right balance of smooth and strong. For food, Miori had the bacon avocado eggs benedict, Kai went for chicken and waffles, and I had the chorizo burger with country potatoes. Everything came out fresh and flavorful. Overall, this is the place if you're looking for a brunch spot with a party vibe--expect loud music and an energetic crowd. Parking is easy thanks to the large lot connected to the mall. I'd come back to try more of their specialty drinks and other entrées. read more
