    6/21/25 Late lunch Parking 5/5 Easy peasy today, arrived ~1 pm. Atmosphere 5/5 Covered in prior reviews, clean, fun trendy modern. Service 5/5 Today we had the pleasure of being served by someone new. We had our drink and meal taken promptly. Ordered the mushroom burger, slaw and side of onion rings. Food 5/5 ++ French Toast Resturant never disappoints. Freshly prepared scratch meals are delicious whether from the breakfast, lunch or dinner options! The large burger is served on a nicely toasted bun, with mayo, onion lettuce, pickles and Swiss cheese. I choose the slightly sweet coleslaw and their "Dare-me-Not-to -Eat" crunchy onion rings. Everything was delicious and satisfying. $53.20 includes the tip. Bon Appetit my Friends-SYOY!

    Let me preface this by saying I was not feeling my best when we came here. And that makes me sad cuz I've had this place bookmarked for a while. I feel like I missed out on so much. With that in mind I can say the following. The wait was non existent. Major bonus, because it's quite obvious by the setup outside that this place can build up a substantial wait. Our server was on top of everything. She checked on us several times to see if we were ready to order. Unfortunately we had some business to cover and none of us seemed capable of focusing on making a decision on the menu. The menu is pretty extensive. Several pages of cocktails followed by even more pages of French Toast and the usual suspects. I hope to go back because I really would've liked to try one of the many libations offered, instead of just a glass of water. Our meals were good, nothing we ordered was over the top. Okay, exception to this was the raisin bread toast. That isn't something you find very often in AZ, and it's one of my favorites. I regret to say, my toast was burnt. Guess that's no big deal on this occasion since I wasn't feeling up to par and my appetite was keeping a similar pace. They had recently expanded and it appears they can handled a good rush. So maybe the typical wait isn't so bad. I do think the two (2) restrooms -single seater, unisex, are just not enough for this place. Especially if staff has to use the same facilities. Our server came out of one of the restrooms I was waiting to go in which made me figure customers and staff use same facilities. Overall nice place, good service, extensive menu, fair prices. I do hope to come back here to give them another try.

    We've been talking about trying French Toast Cafe ever since they opened, and when my daughter announced she was craving French toast this morning, it seemed like the perfect excuse to finally visit. From the moment we walked in, the experience was easy and welcoming. We were greeted warmly and invited to sit wherever we liked. Menus, napkins, and utensils were already on the table, which was a nice touch and meant we could start browsing the extensive menu right away. Our server arrived promptly to take our drink order. I enjoyed my usual iced tea, and my daughter was thrilled to find Diet Dr Pepper on the menu--a rare find at many breakfast spots, so bonus points for that! I ordered the Belgian waffle, which was delicious, and paired it with a side of bacon that was cooked perfectly with just the right smoky flavor. My daughter went all in on the stuffed French toast, filled with cream cheese and topped with blackberry syrup. Needless to say, she was one happy customer. One thing that stood out was the menu itself. There are so many options and customization choices that narrowing down what to order was the hardest part of the meal. Everything sounded tempting! Our server was cheerful, attentive, and checked back to make sure everything was just right. Overall, breakfast was solid, the service was friendly, and the atmosphere was welcoming. We'll definitely be back to work our way through more of that menu.

    Blueberry pancake combo
    Vicky E.

    My wife and I were out and decided to go get some lunch and try something new.Dinning room is clean but we were sat in a booth very close to the service station/kitchen. Conversations between workers was a bit loud but we did our best to ignore it. Their menu is very large. It's a bit overwhelming trying to choose. My wife ordered the very berry crepes, and I ordered the blueberry pancake combo (2 eggs & 2 sausage patties) I do not know what our servers name was as she didn't introduce herself and she wasn't wearing a name tag. My breakfast was good. Sausage patties were a bit overcooked. Eggs were a perfect over medium. Pancakes are good . My wife very much enjoyed her crepes. It came with fresh strawberries and a sliced up banana on the side . A couple dollops of whipping cream . Service was fast and pleasant. We will most likely return.

    French toast flight
    Bonnie C.

    Everyone was craving French toast so we tried a variety of items. We ordered the French toast flight. Which we were able to choose three different flavors. We choose pistachio, Nutella and biscoff. The biscoff is a bit thick but it was amazing. It paired really well with the whipped cream, banana and strawberries. They also give a side of syrup, but it's sweet enough already without the syrup. We also tried the country fried steak with an over easy egg. They offer a variety of bread options such as sour dough, white, wheat,etc. we also got some chicken tenders on the side which was surprisingly very juicy and flavor ful. We were told that the chicken tenders were really under rated. Which is true. The staff were super nice and friendly. The came over to check on us here and there. And after we made a bill spill in the table everyone came offering to clean up the spill. They have a pretty wide open dining area. The floors are clean and really tidy. Whenever anyone in our group finished a plate the staff would come and ask may I clear your plate, or anything else. Whenever in Arizona would love to try other items.

    Great breakfast experience with my daughter! Had the pistachio French toast and she had the Mickey Mouse pancakes . All food was 10/10

    Great find again French Toast The French toast was excellent, and the eggs were cooked just right. The only thing that didn't quite hit were the home fries, but everything else made up for it. Service was outstanding--friendly, attentive, and very welcoming for a first-time visit. Well worth it. I'll definitely be back.

    cup of OJ and raspberry iced tea

    After seeing all the good reviews for this place, we decided to give it a try during our recent trip to AZ. As I mentioned previously, we've been impressed by the number of places that serve breakfast in the East Valley. We were here on a weekday around 11 a.m., and they were doing a brisk business. I must say, they are well organized in keeping track of customers waiting to be seated. The restaurant is in a strip mall, and there is a roof outside that keeps the sun away and, I imagine, the occasional rain. Plus, there are enough seats for those waiting. We gave the man at the outdoor podium our name and told him there were two of us. We didn't have to wait very long. While they are known for their French toast, we both decided to get an omelet. We both ordered the omelet that had bacon bites, cheese, and tomatoes. This dish also comes with hash browns and one's choice of toast (we both chose sourdough). To drink, I had a raspberry iced tea while my husband had orange juice. Service was on point. Our server was friendly, polite, and efficient. She was also well-versed when it came to the menu. All in all, we are glad we gave them a try. Next time, I think I'll order some French toast :)

    French toast flight with Cinnamon French toast, Dubai French toast and Berry French toast!

    Love this place! It because an instant favorite and we love coming back! Staff is friendly, attentive, food is excellent!

    So I remember they added onto their Cafe and what a change to the good this place is twice as big as it was before and they were still very very busy. Very happy for the owners food still was good. I had the very berry French toast couple eggs, bacon very good meal check it out. I think you will enjoy it. Very cool inside

    2 Cinnamon French Toast
    Lyric G.

    When walking up to the place it looks like every other small business cafe with an adorable sign. Once you're inside it blasts you with designs all over the walls with pictures and writings of what's on the menu. I put my son and my name in and within maybe 15 minutes we were seated at a table. My son ordered the French toast and it came out pretty quick. I got the biscuits and gravy with sourdough, it did take a little longer but those biscuits covered in gravy were well worth the wait! Biscuits were moist and buttery and the gravy was perfect definitely a must get if you go. So glad I live right up the road we will be coming here plenty!

    Eggs, hashbrowns, toast, belgian waffle, country fried steak
    Saya M.

    I went during saturday breakfast rush at 10am Had to wait 15/20 mins for a table for 2. (Which is normal for the time/day) the food comes in big portions, the wait staff even though floored was kind and attentive enough. The Belgian waffle was good. The eggs, hashbrowns etc was mid, standard taste nothing special nothing wow. If I had to choose between IHOP and here, id choose Ihop for the price and comparison. The only reason to come is to support local business. Over-hyped for breakfast.

    Dubai Chocolate French Toast
    Fiona Shane I.

    Finally got to try this place. It was busy but the wait for my grandma and I was just 15-20 mins. Very friendly service and everyone helps out. The food was delicious! I love dubai chocolate so def sweet and am glad they have the banana and strawberries on the side

    (Top to bottom) Cinnamon, Nutella, and Bueno French Toasts. Side of eggs and sausage.

I want to start by saying our server was great, the atmosphere was nice, and our food came out quickly, which we appreciated. We had only taken a couple bites of our meals when my boys needed to use the bathroom. I took them, and intentionally left my purse at the table so it was clear we hadn't left. When we came back, our entire meal had been cleared from the table. It was incredibly frustrating, especially with hungry little kids. The manager came over and apologized and offered to remake the food, but at that point my kids were hungry, upset, and honestly I was too. I just wanted to leave. I asked if they could comp the meal because this was entirely due to their mistake. The manager then said we should still pay 50% of the bill, which was honestly shocking. Paying half for food we barely ate because it was taken by mistake felt completely unreasonable. After I pushed back, they did end up comping the meal. Mistakes happen, and I understand that. What made this experience especially disappointing was the manager's lack of empathy and apology--especially as a mom trying to manage dinner with little kids. It turned what started as a pleasant dinner into a very stressful and upsetting experience.

Today, May 16th at VI on Signal Butte - rough start by a waitress who told both of us "I need to know your pie order. NOW." Resturant was not busy. Not at all. It was 4:15 maybe. Slow on a SUNDAY post-winter visitor rush on a late Spring day. Rushed. I pointed to my 3-6pm dinner choice of TURKEY. I showed her. "Just as it comes. She repeated it back to me as she typed in into her handheld computer. Chicken fried steak arrived. And a sausage looking oval patty shape of stuffing. Two long finger prints in it. I wondered if she picked up my loose stuffing as it's normally served here in America, or rather the chef did this to all who request it. I told my husband to look for spit in his food. My hubby? Nicest guy ever. But when he knows I didn't want and could not manage fried beef..but I had fasted 21 hours. I needed sliced fresh high protein meat. Wait another 15 min or eat the mess on my plate?

I remember this saying if you l oh someone's attention the first three seconds and first three steps you'll spend the next 30 min trying to make them believe you're hiring. It's true. I was too tired this week to be extremely understanding but I'm never rude. I told my hubby let's both let this one go. And I said "But we won't return here." He nodded in agreement. Because I see people come in and sit down I see how tired they are and make quick calls to be able to turn their day around if only for a short time before they return home....to being a caregiver or to grieve a loss.

I went with the corned beef hash + pancakes breakfast, and it delivered that old-school diner energy. The hash was hearty and filling, eggs cooked just right, and the pancakes? Soft, golden, and exactly what you expect--nothing fancy, just solid. But let's be clear... the real reason you come here is the pie. Village Inn doesn't play about their pies, and the banana cream pie is the headline act. Light, creamy, not overly sweet, topped with whipped cream and just enough texture to make every bite feel intentional. For under $20 a pie, it feels like one of those rare "still worth it" moments in today's food scene. Yes--it's a chain.
