    Visited Breakfast Republic while in San Diego after a friend recommended it, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. One tip for first-time visitors, make sure to join the waitlist as soon as you arrive. They don't take reservations, but the wait moved much quicker than we expected, giving us time to walk around the plaza before our table was ready. Our server, Paulina, was fantastic. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. I ordered the shrimp and grits, and my partner and I shared the lemon cheesecake pancake stack. We also split the Breakfast Republic Prosecco bottle with orange juice, and everything was delicious. The atmosphere was lively, the food exceeded expectations, and I was pleasantly surprised by the value for everything we ordered. They also have some really fun merchandise that I'll definitely be coming back for. I had an amazing experience and can't wait for my next trip to San Diego so I can visit again.

    I have eaten here several times and I like but I think the portions have become smaller and the prices higher. Hopefully they fix this. I went on a hot and humid day and they don't have A/C inside the restaurant or it doesn't work so I would be hesitant to go back on hot and humid days. I usually get the traditional eggs Benedict, there other variations but I think the classic one is the best

    We visited this location for brunch after arriving from the airport. My first impression was to leave because the restaurant dining room smelled like vomit to me. My Husband said that what I was smelling was the Buona Forchetta kitchen smells next door. We ordered: 1 Salted Caramel Latte hot, 1 PB & Elvis stuffed French Toast, 1 American Breakfast, 1 Chicken Apple Fennell Sausage side, 1 Brussells Sprouts and Potatoes side. My food was not good. The french toast was very soggy, I did not finish it. The Brussels Sprouts potatoes had cheese on them that was not melted. The Chicken Apple Sausage was still pink and seemed to not be cooked thoroughly. My Husband's American Breakfast with house potatoes was prepared well and he enjoyed it all. Our server was Abraham and he was great. He had a great demeanor and was friendly. The manager was super nice and friendly. The serving staff was great. The cooking staff did not do a good job for my taste. 4 stars for the staff minus 1 star for the food preparation and smell inside the dining room.

    Great service and gluten-free options. My partner has NCGS, dairy protein and potato allergies. They have gluten-free multi grain bread, and allowed him to substitute vegetables for fruit with his Steak and Eggs. My BAE Mac was good, both my drinks were beautifully pleasant. The staff is a vibe, kind and efficient.

    The chilaquiles were amazing! Our server was Grant A, and he was very quick and attentive.

    I remember going to the republic when the only restaurant was in North Park. With expansion came changes. Food is delicious but over the years they give you less. Maybe inflation is to blame. The service was ok. I assume to cut cost they didn't have a lot of waitstaff to help. Our waitress was also the hostess. I asked for silverware but it never arrived so I had to get it myself. The ambiance or atmosphere is ok. Liberty station is a cool area. If the wait is too long here just walk down the hallway to the market place. A lot of great restaurants there.

    I can't recommend this place enough. You can't go wrong w anything on the menu-- even the drinks. Their vegan jammin bennie is something I dream about every night. Their service is great at any location (I've been to all of them, even in Los Angeles), & I recommend the downtown San Diego & PB location. **The coffee is definitely worth it!

    Food 10 Out of 10 Service 10 out of 10 Ambiance a little too dark for Me so 8 out of 10 on that one.

    The location in Liberty station is charming and centrally located! Their selection of breakfast benedicts are my favorite! Crispy breakfast potatoes so good. They are well known for the Jurassic sweet salty bacon and you get three pieces as a side order. You get it on their popular Bloody Mary too! Our server was so friendly and attentive which made breakfast even better. We did not have to wait for a seat! Plenty of parking!

    The atmosphere is fairly casual. The inside is nice and fun contemporary cool, and the outside isn't all that different than most spots. The menu is not massive, but that was good, and they still had a wide variety. They had a few interesting specialty stacks of pancakes, some normal breakfast fair, some Mexican dishes, and other less standard fair. The service was decent. I do generally drink lots of water, so that was my only complaint, that I didn't assists have water to drink. Overall, it was a very good experience and I will definitely go again when I'm in the area.

    Located in SD, this place gets busy quick! There is indoor and outdoor seating, but you'll need to get there early because there is no reservation for large parties. The staff were friendly and accommodating and answered our questions. The food serving is huge! I had the Benedict with potato's and hubby ordered the omelette with potato's and toast. The coffee was strong and there is one house coffee that you can have unlimited refills. Imagine the heart palpitations! Definitely a cool spot.

    Do they have high chairs?

    Yes, we have plenty of high chairs for our smallest of guests! Looking forward to seeing you soon!

    On old almost 15 minutes , are they even open today ? I've been trying to order online for pick -up but all locations say closed. Can't seem to find a any info. online or through their phone message with regards to being closed today . Odd.

    It's Father's Day. They aren't picking up because they are too busy.

    Is the vegan jammin Bennie good?

    YES! I've had it several times :)

    Is this place dog friendly? And are there gluten free options?(wheat allergy)

    Yes for dog friendly and I'm not too sure about gluten free. The do serve vegan dishes so I'm sure they support that dietary need as well!!

    Do they take reservations?

    Unfortunately, they do not. First come, first serve. My advice is, get there early to avoid the 90 min wait

Instead of saying no, they just charged us for the kids' teriyaki bowl and served it in a full-size bowl for only $10, which was a nice surprise. The only downsides were the service and the drinks. It was really busy, so everything took quite a while, and our appetizers didn't come out until after our main food had already been served. Not the end of the world, just a little odd. The cocktails also left a bit to be desired since they were much stronger than they were balanced. Overall though, the quality of the food made up for it. I'd definitely come back for the sushi.
