Just had breakfast at the Midtown location of Toast on Lenox and I was very impressed. I ordered the chicken and waffles, and the fried chicken was some of the best I've had in a long time -- perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The waffle was excellent too, and they have a wide variety of toppings. Honestly, you could almost build something like a Cinnabon-style waffle if you wanted. Their honey hot sauce was also really good and paired perfectly with the chicken. The service was outstanding. Our server, Mimi, was a really nice young lady and took great care of us. They also offer a military discount, which I always appreciate. Parking is valet (about $12-$13), but overall the experience was great and well worth it. I would definitely go back and may try the Buckhead location next time. Highly recommend. read more

Absolutely love this place. The food was phenomenal , I had the banana foster french toast the grits, eggs, green juice and something else all phenomenal. Can't wait to go back. read more

Toast on Lenox did NOT disappoint! We had a 4:00 PM reservation and got seated around 4:10-4:15, so not bad at all, especially for Midtown. Just a heads up, parking is a little tricky. We had to park down the street at a nearby lot (I think it was called Spice Me Up or something like that), and it was about $20. Now let's get into the FOOD... because wow. 10/10 across the board. Everything hit. Like seriously, every single thing we ordered was delicious. The short ribs were SO tender and full of flavor... melt-in-your-mouth good. No complaints at all. The service was also amazing. Our food came out super fast, and everything felt smooth and well-paced. You can tell they have a good system in place. Overall, great experience, amazing food, and I would definitely go back! read more

I'm honestly not sure how to feel about this place. I didn't hate it but I didn't fall in love with it either. I'd be willing to try it again but maybe something else. The inside is really small. It does have a bar top tho which is good to know. My friend and I got there a few minutes apart. They will not seat you if everyone hasn't shown up for your reservation, including just two guests. I'm a beer drinker but they don't have any beer or anything comparable. So I was adventurous and tried a Moscow mule thinking that would be alright. I was very wrong. The average mule has vodka and ginger. This one had bourbon and I could barely taste the ginger. I told the server I didn't like it and he informed me they can't take liquor back, so I'd still have to pay for it. I said that's fine but I can't get that drink down. He suggested I have it cut. So I agreed to that. It still wasn't for me but I was able to get it down now at least. I got the GA hot honey chicken but got the catfish instead of chicken. I also subbed the greens for macaroni. What I didn't know was there was a $5 charge to sub out the greens for macaroni. Had I known, I would've just added the macaroni since I was paying extra anyways. I was told the greens have stems and I personally don't care for stems in my greens when dining out because sometimes it's too much stems and not enough greens. The catfish was fried well and fresh but lacked seasoning for my personal taste. The macaroni was AMAZING. No complaints there. The sweet potatoes weren't cooked long enough. They needed another 20-30 minutes on the stove. The flavor was there but they weren't tender enough. I'm not sure if they're made like that regularly or just when I came. My friend got chicken and waffles. She enjoyed the wings and waffle very much. She also got the gumbo which she said was good but it was a little runny and came in a very small cup. All bills include a 18% gratuity. I think it's 20% for six people and up. Would I try it again? Maybe. Do I need to try it again? No. read more

So first be ready for a wait because it's worth it. We waited 35 minutes for 2. We came from the other location where the wait was an hour! The ambiance is loud but has great music (2000s hits). The food was IMMACULATE!!! Many props to the assembly line of cooks preparing high class, delicious, perfectly cooked meals. We had the Brussels sprouts for a starter, with mimosas. They were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The mimosas had eight flavors to choose from. Our entrees were the short rib skillet, one with scrambled eggs and one with over easy. We added strawberry and plain French toast. The amount of food was amazing. Every bite was delicious. Our server was named VIDAL and he was ON POINT! I will say the young woman at the door with the sweat pants on should probably work somewhere else. Other than that WE WILL BE BACK. read more

I came in from out of town to visit and this place was highly recommended I can see why!! Food- 10/10 everything was so good, cooked to perfection, flavorful I was so pleased with everything! I ordered the GA Honey hot fried chicken and it tasted amazing. I also got an alcoholic beverage I forget the name but it was good and it packed a punch Service - waitress 10/10, very friendly and fast, great service! Ambiance- it's very cute inside everything looks new and aesthetically pleasing, plenty of seating they have booths and then tables in the middle, and a long bar for bar seating. It was busy when we went I didn't make reservations and was lucky enough to be seated right away but I did notice a line on my way out so make reservations or head there early! read more

We visited this spot for a birthday dinner and overall had a decent experience. The hostess was friendly, and we were seated promptly once our entire party had arrived, thanks to our reservation. Our server was pleasant, and the food was served fairly quickly after we ordered. The music was kept at a comfortably low volume, making it easy to have a conversation. However, the drink prices were noticeably high compared to similar restaurants, which was a bit disappointing. Also, be aware that an automatic 18% gratuity is added to all checks. The food is good but for the price, I'd recommend a more fine dining experience. read more

I did not like their seating policy and their back room feels like being seated in a closet and it gets extremely loud when it's full of people conversing plus the loud music. It's a lot. On to the food... I tired their catfish and grits and added grilled shrimp for an additional $10. The grilled shrimp was delicious and so was their Biscoff French toast. I'm still dreaming about their French toast! read more

Food , service, ambiance 10/10. A reservation is absolutely needed if you want to go on the wkend. There was a line outside for Sunday brunch. Tues and Wednesdays are slower nights . Everything was absolutely delicious. Everything being grits, French toast, potatoes, eggs and wings which were all seasoned to perfection. The gumbo was tastey but also a bit salty for my liking. While I didn't have an alcoholic beverage this time around, everything that came out looked amazing. I would for sure come back and recommend to others read more

This place is very popular and trendy. The reservations get booked fast, but it is a smaller space so it makes sense. It's a casual yet chic spot that's perfect for brunch dates or get togethers.

I'm not much of a big breakfast person. Toast is on everyone's list and if you've been following reviews for a while you know that can be a mixed bag. Toast is one of the few places that met expectations and exceeded them. Everything was well flavored and cooked perfectly. The service was quick and I was never left lacking for anything. Parking is...well, it's Atlanta. Valet is up the street and costs $10. All in all though, I'd come back here. The food was tasty and that's the important thing read more

Food, drinks, and service was great. My only complaint is the tap water is border line undrinkable.

Decided to try Toast for the first time since moving to ATL. I've heard rumors about the parking situation, so we decided to valet at their lot which is not located adjacent to the building, but a bit up the street. It was $11 if you had cash, $13 with card. Valet was very nice. We made reservations and were seated promptly. Our host was very nice and not overbearing. The vibe was very decorative inside. Everyone was very welcoming. Food: I decided to order the short rib skillet and my partner ordered wings, yams, and greens. We did not order drinks because they were quite expensive... more expensive than most places. The skillet I ordered was only okay for it being $26. It was very salty and the "short rib" looked more like small chunks of meat. I probably could have counted the number of bits that came with my skillet. My partners food was better, taste wise. For the price point of $28, it is debatable. Overall, my experience was okay. I probably would not come back again, unless it was for a girls brunch. This place was cute, but definitely overhyped. read more

I love me some Toast. They are one of the rare places in ATL that are actually worth the hype. The parking is great if you're there early and if not they offer valet. The restaurant is always clean and the staff is very efficient (Not somewhere to come if you wanna lounge because you will feel rushed). They also have a dress code and predetermined tip percentage (I agree with the rumors about how they only enforce the rules with certain people). I always get the French toast and it's always enough for two. I don't like placing to go orders though. The portions will be different with the to go options so I only eat here if I know I can sit down.l for a while. read more

Wow! Let me start off by saying this may be one of my favorite places in ATL now! Lol The hostess Nic was so nice. We didn't have reservations and just flew in. She made sure my husband and I were taking care of. Grade A service. Our waitress Lana didn't disappoint either. She was very knowledgeable of the menu and was very attentive. The vibes were going. They play R&B and it's very instragam photo ready. Now let's get into the food: Whole Red Snapper - 1000/10 I couldn't finish it so I took it to go and definitely warmed it up later lol Collard Greens - 1000/10 kinda sweet but I liked it Breakfast Potatoes - 9/10 I'm picky about my potatoes and they were good! Mac & Cheese - 1000000000/10 best Mac I've ever had. Wings - 1000/10 sauce was on point read more

I lovedddd toast so much! My mom and I went in to get some breakfast while we were in ATL and this place was so good. They did have limited seating and it was a wait to be seated on the floor so we just went ahead and sat at the bar. The bartender was great and patient with us as we ordered our drinks. We did get the bottled water just to have some water to drink while we were drinking at the bar because it was hot out there! Everything taste so fresh and the salmon was nice and moist, it wasn't dry. I just loved the food but beware of the biscuits! They're so good but they have a lot of butter on them. I'd definitely go back here and eat again! read more

Food 4/5 If you're a Brussels sprouts fan like me you'll smile after every bite. I normally get the sauces on the side. The wings that come with the chicken and waffles are crunchy and well seasoned. The lobster was too salty. I was disappointed because it looked so good. The waffles weren't as crispy as I like but the flavor was there. Drinks 5/5 Whether you get the mimosa flight (tons of different flavors) or a cocktail, the bartenders know what they're doing. Service 5/5 I appreciate an honest waiter. Most of them are pretty chilled. This place is one of the best brunch spots in Atlanta. Side bar- please clean your rag or mop properly. This is the 2nd time the place smelled initially when I walked in. read more

So glad we had an earlier reservation at Toast on Lenox, as we saw the restaurant get busier as the morning went on. Parking is limited on the street, and since it's a residential area, they advised parking a little farther down for safety, which was helpful. The service was excellent--our server went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. I tried the mimosa flight and loved it, while my husband had the chicken and waffles and couldn't stop raving about it. I had the catfish and grits, and it was absolutely amazing! Overall, a great brunch spot with delicious food, great drinks, and top-tier service. I'd definitely return! read more

Food was great, service was average and wait time was excellent. We came here for Sunday brunch without a reservation, front hostess staff was a bit uninterested but they communicated the wait time would be about 45 mins. Luckily that turned out to be 15 minutes. We were seated at the bar and the service there was excellent. For appetizers we had the seafood dip, which had lots of meat but was a small portion. For entrees we had the shrimp and grits, chicken and waffles, and a side of the biscuits and gravy. Everything was amazing especially the waffles, except for the chicken gravy on the biscuits. It was a bit salty. Excellent price point, great music and decor for the environment. Will be back. Also please fix the front door. It slams with every opening. read more

FYI.... your whole party has to be there before you can be seated. We were greeted immediately upon entering. They have the cute grass wall to take pics and a couple seats if you have to wait on your party. It's a small space but a nice ambiance. They gave a crazy reservation time of 4pm with the kitchen closing at 4:30, knowing they close at 5pm. Though we felt slightly rushed our server was still very polite. I wasn't hungry, hungry because I had ate earlier. I did order there Ga. Honey Hot Fried Chicken but I tasted everyone else's food and everything was amazing!!! On the table we had Crab Cakes, Seafood Gumbo, Brussel sprouts, Lobster Sweet Potato Waffle, and Blackened Salmon. Top tier around the table...yummy!! And my drink was nice!! There was something floating in my first drink, so I walked it over to the bar and not sure if her attitude was because of the time or what but she was not giving the best attitude, though she made another one...the other bartender walked out the back and asked did I need something and I told her my drink had something in it, she was like it's cool I see it and we'll get you another. They have two restrooms that are unisex but it was clean and spacious. I definitely would recommend because I'll sure be going back, just don't except the 4pm spot....you may not get the best energy from the staff lol. Oh yeah they do have a patio area. read more

Yummy! Classic brunch place in atlanta. QR code menu has to be one of my biggest pet peeves. Full bar Got the shrimp and grits (delicious w jumbo shrimp), kale salad (creamy with parm crisps), and fried cat fish with grits (creamy but was salty). I thought the service was soooo slow. Not a cute restaurant but can be reserved thru the website. I need to try the buckhead location. Barney's is better. read more

Ok. They have grass walls, but don't let that deter you. The food was good. The truffle tator tots are a must! I got the salmon cakes with pimento cheese grits. It also came with a nice buttery biscuit. It was delicious, but I couldn't taste any pimento cheese. My daughters got the breakfast sandwich which they thoroughly enjoyed. Now the service was a little shakey. It took forever (20 minutes) to get 2 glasses of orange juice. It's very rare to get alcohol before regular drinks. I also asked for jelly which apparently she didn't hear because it took another 10 minutes. Thought the music is loud, you can still hold a conversation. 3.5 stars read more

Clean and welcoming spot with a friendly and well-informed staff--definitely a nice first impression! However, I wasn't thrilled about the automatic 18% gratuity on takeout, especially with no option to return food or drinks. It feels a bit intense, but I get that it's becoming a trend at newer Atlanta eateries. My advice? Dine in to get the full experience (and your money's worth). As for the food, we ordered the catfish and grits, with a side of grilled shrimp. The flavors delivered, and the texture was on point--crispy where it needed to be. One of the nice things I like that they offer with their own hot sauces and pancake mix that you can buy to take home! read more

This place has a lot of hype behind it, and in all my years of visiting ATL, finally got a chance to stop by. It was a Saturday morning shortly after opening, reservation for two. Parking is a half block down and costs $10 or $11 I cant remember exactly. Short walk to the restaurant. We were seated right away and our server came over and took our order. She was very friendly and checked on us often. I personally had the catfish and grits with the crawfish sauce. It was very good I have to admit. Feedback on the chicken and waffles was that it was okay, nothing special. 18% standard gratuity. Now that I have checked this place off of my list, I probably wont visit again. There is nothing spectacular that just screams "come back". But the food and service were good, I have no complaints about this place. read more

Following a college graduation I visited here with my siblings and cousins! We initially tried to walk in and get a table but they were so crowded we needed to make a reservation for the following day. So if you are set on visiting this establishment, ensure you make a reservation ahead of time. But once we got our table it was a pretty wonderful experience. We sat outside and they had a nice back patio with shading and fans to provide an enjoyable experience. We had a party of 10 and they were able to accommodate us very well in giving us our drinks and food without hiccup, confusion or delay. We got all of our food at the same time and it was all very hot. We also got some appetizers and they came out very quickly. Our entrees ranged from breakfast burritos, French toast, salmon cakes, fried catfish and grits and more! Overall the service and food was very delicious and accommodating. One thing I do want to give a heads up for is they do have an extensive list for "pre-reqs" for dining either them, ranging from time limits on restaurant dining, splitting checks and returning food. So be sure to read through the disclaimer once you scan the QR Code to save you the headache at the end of a great experience! Overall I had heard great things about Toast and was not disappointed, I hope to visit again soon and try their other location as well in the near future! read more

While visiting Atlanta, my cousins and I had Toast on Lenox at the top of our bucket list of brunch spots. We originally wanted to go to the Buckhead location but they were unexpectedly closed due to some kind of (utility/water?) issue, so we quickly made our way to the Midtown location instead. One quick note -- the parking at the Buckhead location is a lot easier because it's in a shopping plaza. The Midtown location has valet parking across the street. We didn't make reservations because we aimed to get to the restaurant right at opening (on Saturday). But even after having to drive to the Midtown location, our group of four was quickly seated. I ordered the breakfast burrito which comes with truffle tater tots. I thought the burrito was a little small but it was delicious. We also ordered mocktails. They took a long time to be served but were surprisingly good too -- flavorful, refreshing, and beautifully crafted. Another star of our brunch was the ricotta pancakes. 10/10 for those, no notes. The cost of our meal was pricey but the quality of the food was excellent overall. read more
