The service and environment were not pleasant. I sat at the bar, next to a pile of dirty glasses and waited a few minutes for the bartender to acknowledge me. I remained hopeful because the reviews of the food and pictures looked awesome, but I was dissapointed. I could have made the Gio's favorite sandwich better at home! It lacked flavor and was served on boring white toast. Also, please be advised that the breakfast sandwich is not served with a side, which is peculiar because half of the plate is empty! So, I ended up ordering a side of potatoes. I also ordered one Nutella pancake but was surprised when they brought out the pancake with two Nutella packets on the side, I didn't realize it was "top your own pancake" style. The pancake itself was the best thing I had, it was fluffy and the syrup added good flavor. Although located close to my home, I will not be back. I'd rather go to my local First Watch, chain breakfast place. read more

We did a hike at Silly Mountain Park and found this place. Had fantastic food and drinks. My Bloody Maria was excellent. Perfect spice and citrus balance. My Divorced Benedict has delicious. All enjoyed our food. We had Heidi's rancheros, avocado toast, breakfast and toast burritos and the corned beef skillet. Everyone loved it. Price is fair too!l. Best of all was Michelle our server. Funny spunky and perfectly attentive! Compliments to the kitchen, front of house and servers! read more

Been here about five times, so won't bore anyone with a review. Just very good! Great service, fun "home in the wall" atmosphere. Food hot and fresh. read more

Our waitress, Tabitha was amazing!! The Mimosa's for two are fun and the Signature Toast is wonderful!

Came all the way from Phoenix to try this place.Delicious food and our server Mareena was the sweetest!

Hostess was very friendly and tried to work with my family and I. We requested patio seating and didn't mind waiting as we have a service animal. We were asked to show credentials which was not the worst part. After review the owner was playing messenger with the hostess which violated the ADA ( American Disablity Act) under US department of justice. We were asked what disability the animal was for. This treatment should not be given to anyone. Do not recommend this restaurant if you are disabled with a service animal! read more

Food was Fantastic, service was great! Everyone was very respectful and helpful! The decors was awesome! Tabitha had a nice conversation with us and made sure we had everything we needed! Will definitely be coming back. read more

This place is a GEM ...And FRANKIE really makes it shine. Thank you Frankie and toast friends for a great morning and food

Love this place and love our server MUREENUH!! She's the absolute best, will treat you like royalty from the princess diaries while holding your drink for you as she poetically serenades the room with taylor swift (mureena's version). Great food, great vibes, and the GREAT Mureena!! read more

Marinara is the best hand down. Quick efficient and has the best recommendation's. Loved all the Taylor songs she kept spitting while making the ambiance immaculate. Will come weekly! read more

Amazing Food and Friendly Staff! We had Carley for our Server and she did a fabulous job! Top notch service and our family will def. be back again! read more

Super great find in Apache Junction. We shared the Divorced Benedict and the Chilaquiles. Both were absolutely delicious! I had a mimosa and my hubby had the Lost Dutchman which was heaven in a glass! Small and cozy place with great views of the Superstition Mountains. To make the visit just perfect was our awesome server Sam! Super friendly, very informative and on-top of every need. We will definitely be back! read more

Stopped in for a late breakfast with adult beverages for the holiday weekend and was not disappointed. Service was super friendly, the food came out really quick, and was delicious, and the adult beverages are worth trying. - great little spot off the beaten path read more

Jamie B has been our server a couple of times here at Toast, amazing service. Her attitude is too notch and is really good about suggesting different things on the menu and helping with the multiple types of drinks. Their food here is so good with large portions and the ability to substitute. I would highly suggest stoping in for breakfast, brunch or lunch and ask for Jamie B she will take care of you. read more

Great service. And yummy food. Highly recommend Toast GIO for breakfast if you are visiting Apache Junction.

Almost breakfast perfection. 10/10 on service, ambience, coffee, food... My hash browns were average. My wife got biscuits and gravy and I got the scramble. All of that was among the best we've ever had. read more

Good place good food and good drinks service is good if you plan on getting breakfast better come early to avoid the wait

Really bad service. Took a very long time for service, had to ask for sauce and check. They didn't seem that busy. The kitchen manager brought out the "cheese crispy " it was excellent , the fish tacos were very fishy, ick. And the upcharge ? An extra $1 for breading????? Just put it in the price!! Won't be going back. read more

Watch out, ok food ahead! After reading all the rave reviews, we thought to try this place out. It looked like your typical fav locals only spot. The place was packed. We were seated after a brief wait. Our server placed our order, then we waited. Solid half hour for our breakfast. During that time we finished our tea and water with no refills. The food came and what a let down. My wife's three egg scramble was more like a single egg with veggies. It was served on a rectangular plate, and spread out, but the amount of food was not fooling anybody. My breakfast burrito was ok, but was overpriced. For $50 there are better options out there. Maybe we were there on an off day, but not sure if we will be going back. read more

Great service and delicious food. Sat outside which was fabulous on a beautiful Arizona morning. Gorgeous view of the mountain. Totally recommend the Biscuits and gravy or the chilaquiles! read more

Food is always good. Kept giving it a chance taking friends and family who visit AJ, but staff are rude everytime, the woman are rude and quick not ever checking to see if you need anything..one time I was waiting on a friend the lady seating me said wait and sat the ppl down behind me, at that point I am like screw this and went to hackers, staff are friendly and ask if you need anything else. I will not EVER go back. I tell everyone about the rude staff.. read more

This was very good! If you're looking for breakfast near Lost Dutchman's - this is the best you will find! Family owned. The Bloody Maria was out of this world and I would recommend the carnitas skillet with hash. read more

It is a small place, but the food is really good! We came in a little after 10 am on Saturday and waited about 15 min to get a table. It took a while for the food to come in.... I had farm fresh scramble (broccoli, asparagus, tomatoes, mushrooms and goat cheese) with breakfast potatoes and a side of a pancake instead of a toast. My husband had superstition burrito. Everything tasted very good! read more

Toast Gio's is an off the beaten path, "locals only" esque diner. One of my friends has snow bird parents in Gold Canyon who frequent here most weekends when he visits them in AZ (he's a "snow bird light"). In fact the day before we ate here after a hike, he'd been to Toast Gio's! Being that we hiked in nearby Dutchman, all 4 of us were fairly ravenous. The food was fabulous, the service was to be desired. Felt like we were a little forgotten about at times (even though it wasn't that busy), which I took notice with no one's offering to regularly refill our water glasses. I was feeling up for a beer with breakfast and the poor server made the bartender come to me on the 3rd attempt at finding one in-stock (no Mich Ultras, Bud Lights) to help me pick from what was available. The plain iced coffee was not available too but I sufficed with one of the delish fancy coffees. It was fairly hard to pick what to order and I am not sad with the Chilaquiles! Everyone really enjoyed their food, not just myself- two of us ordered a scramble, another ordered pancakes. A lot of good for an affordable price. Can't wait to hike and brunch around AJ again with Toast as my brunch spot! read more

Toast Gio is always excellent. It's often crowded, but the food is worth it. Our eggs are always cooked just as ordered and bacon fabulously crispy. Service is also always excellent. read more

I gave three stars because the food was good minus I got served a cold coffee after the waitress remembered I ordered it. They messed up my daughters order but the biggest thing that upset me is it had to be 80-90 degrees inside and if it rains good luck because the humidity inside will be miserable. If the environment improves I would probably come back. My recommendation check them out but before sitting down make sure it's not a sauna inside. read more

Great food great service. Best breakfast in Arizona IMO. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. The chilaquiles and pancakes were phenomenal read more

The service was ok the eggs were good but the potatoes were cold and dried out, and the bacon was burnt. The coffee cup had some weird stickers on it that were coming off on the edge of the cup making it hard to drink, I don't know how it could be sanitized. It was the third time I tried this place, I won't go back Save your money and go get a good breakfast at First Watch. read more

Food was so good, demolished it before i could take a pic. This lost dutchman coffee however was the best drink i've ever had in my life. it has salted caramel whiskey, jameson cold brew and irish cream. the toast mimosa was also delicious so depends on what you prefer in the morning, orange juice or coffee. the server was a really attentive listener. the bathrooms have full body length mirrors and were really clean. Overall I wish i could drink this coffee everyday. read more

THIS PLACE!! FRANKIE!! THE FOOD!! THE VIEW!!! You absolutely can not go wrong with this restaurant. We came for breakfast expecting a Dennys vibe..nope!! Far exceeded our expectation. The parking is plentiful..pick a spot on the dirt and park. The inside of the spot is great. You get a laugh in every corner..every wall.. the food is so good. I got the superstition burrito and I demolished that bad boy. Portions are huge prices are small in comparison. The drinks were perfectly balanced. But the golden piece was 1000000% the service. We were seated immediately. The people kept coming and everyone was seated in a timely manner. Our server, Frankie, is hands down the best server I have ever had. She came to check on us a few times but not in that annoying way where you can't take a bite without being bothered. When she did come around she made us laugh. It was like breakfast and a show. We live an hour away from AJ but plan to come back often. I am tempted to not post this review out of fear it's going to get even more popular than it is now and having to wait in a long line...the place is great tho and the wait will be worth it! read more

Food is great, service not so much. Wait staff is much more interested in chatting with each other than taking care of their customers.

What a great find! We live in Phoenix, but love to come out this way for hiking and Goldfield. We stopped in last Friday for lunch after a hike and it was the prefect spot. Great service, good ambiance, kid-friendly, and a super fun menu, including boozy brunch drinks. But the standout, and the reason I can't stop thinking about getting back there, is the Brunch Torta. Every bite is better than the last - the flavor, the texture, I can't even describe it! Andddd, now I'm hungry... read more

Excellent food, service, and ambiance! You can't go wrong... you will love it! I've been there twice, I just wish it was closer to home! read more

This is a great family friendly stop with great food and drinks. We stopped after a hike and it was a great meal with large portions. We had a local with us on the hike; it's a hidden gem for a late breakfast. read more

Toast Gio’s Breakfast & Lunch - Carnitas Skillet - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Apache Junction, Arizona

I love this little place! Sat outside on the patio for lunch on a Saturday at noon. We got lucky and one of the five or so outdoor tables opened up right as we were walking in. Service was great and it just had a really good vibe. A couple of the food items were a bit of a miss though, which I will detail below. Chilaquiles: these were the thick kind of chip, good for not getting soggy, but I actually sort of like my chilaquiles soggy so for me that was actually a negative. Ha. The chicken is decent, the green salsa is good but I also do prefer my chilaquiles with red sauce. So I would say most people would probably think this was a 4/5, but for me it was 3/5 Huevos rancheros: this was the big winner. Although it was not a super giant portion, the sauce was incredible, the corn tortillas were really fresh, and soaked up just the right amount of the sauce and egg yolk. 5/5 Carnitas skillet: The meat was very good and an interesting mix of veggies along with the diced and well spiced potatoes. 5/5 Side of biscuit and gravy: the biscuit is not the strong suit of this restaurant. Would recommend passing on this. The gravy also was a bit watery. The sourdough on the other hand was really good, recommend getting that instead. For the biscuit and gravy I would give a 2/5 Bloody Mary: very good! Strong, as expected, and came promptly after ordering it 5/5 French connection coffee: I feared that this would be too sweet, but actually it was not at all. The cognac balanced well with the coffee and the only sweet part really was the whipped cream on top. For 6.50 this was a steal and stronger than I thought it would be. I would come back just for this cocktail. 5/5 read more

In from Chicago visiting some family. We chose to eat at Toast for breakfast. Smart smart decision. I had the French toast and I would drive back to this place from my home in illinois for breakfast every Sunday. Yummy!! The service was attentive, presentation of food was outstanding and generous portions. Picture to prove that statement. A must stop to eat breakfast place. Owner came over and asked how all was. Highly recommend. 5 star place. Thank you we will be back. read more
