Great service fast and Yolanda was amazing. She always kept our drinks full will definitely be coming back just because of her.

Zaira was our server & was extremely kind & attentive! Food was really good, we ordered the mile high & mom omelet, delish! Iced chai tea latte with an added shot of espresso was also sweet & good! Overall, we had a great breakfast & would definitely come back. read more

There seems to be a disconnect between the cooks' order completions and the timely pick-up and delivery of said food by the waitstaff to the tables. Both times we've been here, our food has been delivered to us lukewarm. The first time, we let it go; the second (last week) we asked the waitress to take our plates back. She did so without an apology and gave us new orders after about 15 minutes. We were underwhelmed. Once is a mistake, twice is a pattern. We've decided not to go back. read more

While I walked in not expecting too much, I walked out beyond satisfied. If my expectations were higher when I arrived would I have been disappointed? No, I think I still would have been satisfied and after all these years (and me staying away for a long while) made the experience that much better. I should note, the bloody that you see in my picture was not made with vodka as they don't have a full liquor license and was probably the weakest part of the meal. The sweet sampler breakfast was not my savory norm but was damn delicious. I'm grateful that Broken Yolks are so accessible in SD and that I can find one just about anywhere in town! read more

This is a pretty nice area. The parking lot is shared so there is more than enough parking. It's also free. We ordered the golden state benedict and the sweet trio. The food portions were large. I really liked the combination of the hollandaise sauce and sricha on the poached eggs. For the sweet trio, I would say the tiki toast was the best. I'm more of a savory person when it comes to breakfast. The strawberry banana smoothie was good. Our server was attentive and friendly. Prices were good. We came on a Thursday morning and it was moderately busy. read more

Don't come here very often but the service is always good and fast and friendly! Had the salmon avocado toast that was yummy. Salmon was smoked and had a lot of taste. I had the blueberry pancakes and poached eggs that were cooked perfect! The orange juice was also fresh squeezed and delicious. Rock music was good but would have preferred soft rock! Cost was 64.14 for two! Still trying to accept the higher prices! read more

It was alright. Service was alright. Food was alright. Nothing to write home about and a non-repeat place for me. Even my coffee... My 1st cup tasted good, the next cup tasted burnt. Didn't see the waitress for another 30 minutes so I couldn't get a change out. read more

My mom and I came in for brunch and Yesenia was our server. My mom had the BLT lunch special and I had a "create your own" omelette. We both really enjoyed our food! Yesenia gave us the best service! She was super attentive and had the happiest attitude! Our muffins were a little on the hard side and Yesenia replaced them with fresh ones easily. We had a great time at the restaurant today and were thankful Yesenia helped us out :) read more

The food was great, but the service was even better. Yesenia made our whole experience special. She was attentive and very polite. We ordered the ranchero skillet. It was spicy, but delicious. She already knew that we wanted more of the ranchero sauce before we even asked. I had mentioned it was my wife's birthday and she brought a fresh blueberry muffin with beautifully written happy birthday in strawberry jelly. I highly recommend for the food and if you can ask for Yesenia, she is a star employee and deserves a raise! read more

What stand outs to me about this location is the amazing customer service and the efficiency they provide. Always attentive and my ultimate favorite server is Yoly!!! I've been coming here for the past 5+ years and I've even tried other locations. No offense to them but this location is by far the best, in my opinion. I've worked in the food industry for many years and I'm aware of the requirements the staff have to meet. And this location meets them, alright!!! Yoly!!! I love ya girl!!!! See ya next time!! Oh yeah! I don't want to forget the quality of the food and drinks served! I haven't experienced needing to wait for too long for my food nor my drink and it's always on point, to me. read more

I must say the food is very tasty fresh and healthy! A large variety of breakfast and brunch choices! The ambiance is very relaxing and nice. The service is excellent!

Yolanda is the best waitress! She kept my coffee cup full and is super nice! We enjoyed the food too. We had the south of the border Benedict and the avocado toast trio. read more

The food was good at least. It was Sunday, so of course there was a wait, which was fine. However. After sitting at our table for 30 minutes, we still didn't have utensils or had anyone take our drink order. By the time we had drinks and had ordered food, it had been 45 minutes. After that almost everything was fine, but overall, not a great look. read more

My husband and I come here pretty often. The food is always great, we've never had problem. We get seated quickly, food doesn't take long and quality is consistent. Shoutout to Yessenia we've gotten her many times as our server she is honestly the best! She is very respectful, attentive and always shows up at the perfect time for refills or to check on how we are doing. If you get the chance to be served by her, consider yourself lucky. Truly amazing service! read more

Yoly was our server and has served us several times in the past. She continues to provide excellent customer service and we never had to request coffee refills due to her proactively refilling our coffee. Food was excellent as well. Yoly was awesome and provided a great experience on my wife's birthday! read more

Absolutely fantastic breakfast at Broken Yolk Café! Every single dish we ordered was a hit. The pancakes were fluffy and indulgent, the Border Benedict was perfectly cooked with rich, balanced flavors, and the biscuit and gravy was classic comfort food done right. Even the strawberry banana smoothie and fresh orange juice were spot on--fresh, smooth, and refreshing. The Bloody Mary flight was a fun bonus and a great way to sample different flavors. What really made the experience exceptional, though, was our server, Annahy. Annahy was attentive, friendly, and incredibly on top of everything from start to finish. She checked in at just the right times, made great recommendations, and kept the whole table happy without us ever feeling rushed. You can tell Annahy genuinely cares about the guest experience, and it shows. Service like Annahy's turns a good meal into a great one. Between the amazing food and Annahy's outstanding service, this was one of the best brunch experiences we've had in a long time. If you come here, do yourself a favor and ask for Annahy--she's a huge part of why we'll definitely be back. read more

Went on Friday to have breakfast 4 of us. We sat outside in the patio. It did take a while for the waiter to come over and take our drink orders . we waited quite a long time to get our meal ordered and even longer to get the food. The two eggs Benedict were OK. The breakfast burrito meal we did not eat. My wife took it home. once we open it up it Look like they put it together, but never cooked it. Took a long time to get the bill , a long time to get the CC slip, a long time to get my credit card back . I had to get up and go inside and say hey where's my credit card? We were just disappointed read more

Come to Broken Yolk if you are craving the best breakfast food always cooked to perfection! I can always rely on Broken Yolk to come through! The food is not only delicious but cooked fresh, and the portions are large for that voracious appetite! There are so many selections of entrees to choose from! Anything and everything is available! The drink list has a great variety of delicious beverages too! I also enjoy the service here because all the wait staff is friendly and accommodating for anything you need. The cleanliness of their restaurant is always appreciated! Keep in mind you will have to wait a little bit because it is so popular here and busy! It is so worth the wait! If you do not want to wait then you would just show up right when their doors open. Head over today to the Broken Yolk! What a perfect way to begin the day! I love it here!

Our server Zaira is awesome as usual. Makes coming back nice! She is on top of it. Food is good

Pro: Ambiance is nice, great music and they push the mimosas which my friends seem to like. Great OJ. Eggs are good. Cons: slow staff service. I've been to other BYC and it's not location specific. It's just slow and expect to not get a hot coffee refill. No hazelnut creamer. Gravy is more herb based, not a country sausage gravy. Lemon ricotta pancakes is NOT as described. These things are rubbery and not fluffy but flat and thin. Not sure where the ricotta disappeared to but did manage to find one small lemon rind piece in a pancake. Short stack is 2 pancakes, full stack is 3. Bottom line: would return for ambiance with company but not for the food or service. ETA: got food poisoning here. Breakfast exited both ends. Not nice seeing blueberries come up. Bottom line: NOT RETURNING. read more
