Brunch Snob delivers exactly what the name promises, elevated brunch dishes go along with a comfort…read morevibe . Even though there was a longer wait, the food and experience made it feel worth it. The smoked brisket Benedict is the standout. The brisket is tender with a deep, smoky flavor. The eggs are perfectly poached, and when everything comes together on the English muffin base, it hits that rich, savory-sweet balance without feeling too heavy. The French toast is Thick-cut and caramelized on the edges, without being overly sugary. It's well-complemented by fresh fruit and just enough syrup so it doesn't turn into dessert overload too early in the day. Overall, Brunch Snob feels like a spot that knows how to do comfort brunch.

Great Group Dining Experience, But Reservations Are Highly Recommended…read more I recently visited Brunch Snob with my fitness group after our weekend session. For anyone planning a visit, please be aware that the wait times can be significant if you do not have a prior reservation. Fortunately, our large party of over 10 guests was able to utilize an indoor corner space to wait comfortably until our table was ready. Once we were seated, the service was excellent. The staff was incredibly patient and attentive while managing a table of our size.The food and beverage options were generally well-received, though there were a few minor details to note. One guest mentioned that the options for mimosa flights were somewhat limited. On the food side, my order of the Mexican Cowboy Bowl was excellent and prepared exactly as expected. While most of our group's orders were correct, one eggs Benedict arrived overcooked despite a specific request during ordering to avoid this. Given the size of our party, the guest chose to accept the dish rather than send it back. Billing Tip: For transparency, an automatic 20% gratuity was included in the final bill for our large group. I recommend double-checking your receipt to keep this in mind before adding any additional tips. Overall, it is a great brunch destination with quality dishes, but making a reservation ahead of time is highly advisable.

The interior is pretty long with a large number of seating inside the building so we had no trouble getting seated right away by the hostess. We decided on food relatively quickly due to previous experience with the business, however, our waiter never came around to take our orders or even give us water at the table. We saw one girl with dyed hair who unassumingly could have been our waiter since she was in our section but only worked with one particular table and ran to the back after each time, but never addressed our table or came by. We eventually had to flag a different waiter down who was able to help us place the order and service us for the rest of our visit, she also informed us that this other "Waiter" was supposed to help us but she wasn't sure why she never made an attempt to do so after having us wait 20 mins and other tables were being serviced. We ordered Flordian French Toast and Elote Breakfast Burrito (plus a couple sides and drink) which were both really good, and filling. Prices weren't too bad for what we ordered and was able to take our mind off of the rather long wait to get helped. Not sure if we'll come back to this particular location again, but it was nice trying the restaurant out another time.

Breakfast with ALL the good vibes! We finally stopped by Original Breakfast House, and I'm so glad we did! We ordered the Loco Moco and the Breakfast Chimichanga, and everything was SO good! 5/5 for us! The Breakfast Chimichanga was probably my favorite -- so savory, flavorful, and delicious! It was packed with all those yummy breakfast flavors and had that perfect hearty, comforting feel. And the Loco Moco was seriously delicious! A juicy burger patty served over rice and topped with a rich, savory gravy and eggs -- basically the ultimate comfort-food breakfast. Every bite was hearty, flavorful, and SO satisfying. We also tried the French toast, and WOW! Sweet, delicious, and the perfect little treat to round everything out. But beyond the food, the vibes here are SO cool! The whole place has such a fun, unique atmosphere, and they even have a bunch of awesome merch that had me wanting to take something home. The customer service was amazing, too! I especially loved seeing the owner walking around from table to table saying hi and checking in with everyone. That personal touch really stood out and made the experience feel so welcoming and personable. We had such a great first visit and already know we'll be back because there are SO many more things on the menu I want to try! read more

This breakfast place serves great food at realistic prices and brings it to you with pleasant, hospitable service. My initial thought before arriving was that this place might end up being a bad clone of the Original Pancake House in Scottsdale. I was thrilled to see a menu that is decidedly progressive and interesting that in some ways out-shines the OPH. The brioche cinnamon rolls are absolutely out of this world. If these rolls were the only saving grace, this place would still be a winner in my book. But the omelettes (she had the Popeye sans bacon and onion; I had the Chili Cheese) were perfectly cooked (slightly more-done than other places) and came with sides that included the gluten free banana pancakes and the chocolate chip pancakes. Even the hash-browns were crispier and more thoughtfully prepared than at some other places. Add to all this that they serve the Valley's own Cortez Coffee and genuinely freshly-squeezed OJ, and you have yourself one of the best places in PHX for breakfast. I would be thrilled to see what variation OBH would make on OPH's famous Apple Pancake. Gluten free? Hint hint... read more

Original Breakfast House has quickly become a favorite spot for my family, and for good reason. From the moment you step in, you're greeted with the warm, personal touch of the owner personally welcoming guests, doubling as a gracious host. The cozy California coast surfing decor adds to the inviting atmosphere. One thing my daughter absolutely loves the custom California hot sauce, which she would buy by the gallon if she could! It's a testament to the flavorsome experience this place offers. And don't worry about bringing cash - they've got you covered with a no-fee cash machine right on site. Now, onto the food - it's simply phenomenal. The extensive menu boasts a variety of dishes leaning towards those delicious California flavors. And the baked goods? You absolutely must try the cinnamon rolls; they're heavenly. In summary, Original Breakfast House is more than just a restaurant; it's an experience. With its friendly owner, delightful decor, mouthwatering food, and unique touches like the custom hot sauce and convenient cash machine, it's no wonder it's become a staple in our dining repertoire. read more

Front of House - Friendly and provided accurate waiting times. Beverages - Coffee was serviceable. Water tasted like it came out of a hose. Food - Toast was a good higher quality bread and the jam was better than average, but toast was cold. Good hash browns and over medium eggs were cooked properly. You could tell that the bacon had been cooked long before we arrived as it was both cold and overly crispy. The waitress was very helpful and nice. She brought beverages quickly, the food came out very fast, and she did check on us multiple times. Overall, the restaurant was clean, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. I just think the food fell short. I do not mind waiting an extra 5 minutes for our food to ensure that the bacon is cooked fresh. I debated on 3 stars since there were many positives, but ultimately, if you are a breakfast place, and you are screwing up bacon, it is an unforgivable offense. I would give it another try if I was in the area because of all the positives. Could have just been an off day. read more

This place is a total gem! I was on the hunt for a fun new breakfast spot and stumbled across The Original Breakfast House here on Yelp. There was a crowd waiting outside (always a good sign), but the wait was only about 30 minutes--not bad at all. Inside, the vibe is awesome--tons of surf-inspired decor that instantly made me feel like I was on a mini vacation in California. Super laid-back and inviting. The menu is packed with mouthwatering options, and we went with a mix of sweet and savory. Let me just say... everything was ridiculously good. The flavors were on point, and the portions hit the spot. Service was fast and super friendly, which only added to the great experience. Heads up: they're cash-only, but there's an ATM inside and no fee, which is super convenient. I'll definitely be back to try their pastries--the homemade pop tart and cinnamon roll looked absolutely insane. Already craving my next visit! read more

If you are going to take phone in orders days ahead for Mother's Day pickups then you should have an organized system in place. It looks like you took any and all orders for 9:30 pickup and of course you had none of them ready. Instead - being greedy as your owner is - you waited until the person arrived to pickup - paid - and then you started cooking the food. I guess this was the only way you could do this since your company god know why does not take credit cards of all things... I have now been waiting here for 30 monitors for food I ordered 2 days ago. So I have to sit here exposed to all these people in the middle of a pandemic, not a single one of your staff is wearing a mask - none ... I would not be surprised if you spread this virus to hundreds of people today thru your disorganization and poor practices and lack of planning and pure greed. Shame on you. read more

There may be finally a situation to have some excellent breakfast that isn't a series in north Phoenix. I have been right here a few times now and i'll admit that everything I've tried is rather good. But, should you really want to get your cash's valued at, come with a sweet enamel. Their pancakes and french toast are robust. When the menu says you get 2 slices of french toast, it would not mention that they cut the loaf of bread the good distance and you are going to get a literal pound of delightful fried bread goodness. Get some orange juice even as you are at it. A variety of areas declare to have recent squeezed orange juice, but right here you see the squeeze it and that you would be able to fairly taste the change. I urge every person to come right here, i'm going to danger a wait to make certain this situation stays open! read more

We love the OG Breakfast! We've been several times before and I will admit that I was disappointed on our last visit; however it was redemption this trip! I had the top quality ingredient which made the food delicious but the bacon #1 crepe was phenomenal! Everything about it was absolutely delicious, cooked perfectly and served quickly and hot! I can't bear to give less than 5 stars but I will admit our server was not great. She was not personable or extremely attentive.

I am happy I had the plain pancake to gauge the deliciousness of them. Even though it was hard to make the decision because they have some insanely delicious options.. What is even better is that it came with the omelette I had ordered. Which not to detract from the awesomeness of their pancakes... But their omelettes are amazing as well. They are about three inches thick. I believe they have to add some of their amazing pancake batter to the mix to make their omelettes so thick and fluffy because I think they were standard three egg omelettes. Maybe I am wrong, but who cares because they are so delicious. This place even blends their own cheeses to ensure quality! Love at first bite! read more

Food was great, so we went back a 2nd time while we were there. I gotta go back to Mayo so I will be coming back to Butters Pancake. If you're at Mayo and need good breakfast look no further. Ps.

And I love the thick bacon that's not greasy or too fatty. Be sure and have the fresh squeezed OJ. I was surprised to find grits in AZ! They were a little thick but still tasty.

We were seated fairly quickly ( less than 15 min) on a weekday morning and sat outside to avoid the cacophony of indoor conversations. Beverages: Decent. Got a double shot of espresso with a separate glass of milk, and cup of ice to make my own latte. Kids got the fresh squeezed orange juice (lot of pulp), and a strawberry banana smoothie that didn't taste like real fruit though the menu stated it, and had a weird texture that coats the throat. Breakfast: Kids had the scrambled eggs which were reminiscent of the ones found at a hotel continental breakfast; wet and unnatural tasting. Apple Cinnamon Pancakes looked unappealing and tasted just as disappointing - regular pancakes with what looked like a can of apple pie filling dumped unceremoniously on top. Banana Cream Pancakes had decent banana slices but the "cream" was an odd glaze that had a chalky aftertaste. New Mexico Skillet with over easy eggs: Eggs were drenched in oil yet, remarkably, the best part of this dish. The hash browns were sliced rounds of undercooked, unseasoned potatoes. They were topped with onions, bell peppers, and tomatoes, all unseasoned and dismally soft. It was sprinkled with cheese, and a pile of chorizo just dumped in one spot on the plate. Certainly seemed cooked separately as nothing meshed on the plate. Oh, and a few sad pieces of underripe avocado. This American cuisine was devoid of character and taste. We took a few bites of each item, looked at each other in disappointment, and gladly left the remainder on the table. Avoid if you have taste buds accustomed to good food.

I came for Sunday brunch and, as expected, it was packed like most weekends. The restaurant has a…read morenice, airy atmosphere with both indoor seating and a patio option, which helps it feel open even when busy. I started with the avocado fries, which were priced at $9. I was expecting something more substantial in terms of breading and crispiness, but they ended up feeling fairly average. The sauce also did not really complement the dish, so it was not particularly memorable. For my main, I had the breakfast burrito, which was huge--definitely shareable for two people. It had good flavor and was stuffed with chorizo, scrambled eggs, bacon, avocado, potatoes, black beans, tomatoes, onions, ranchero sauce, and pico de gallo. Service was understandably limited given how busy it was, so don't expect much attention during peak hours. Overall, it is a solid spot for brunch if you don't mind the crowds.

Also, the service and waitress was so kind and helpful so that also was a plus! My friend ordered the breakfast bowl and hardly Touched it. I went for the gluten free pancake and the texture and flavor was so bad. It was flat, mushy and not fluffy at all. My son got the kids pancakes and he also did not finish them, and he's a huge fan of pancakes. Coffee was okay, but no flavored creamer. It was def a busy place and again the interior was great and maybe better for cocktails.

They had a very unique menu at Toasted Owl, with many items cleverly named after the bodacious birds. My wife got the Three Tacos plate, my daughter got a gluten free blueberry pancake and soy chorizo, her husband got the Owl 66 and I got the 'Owlapeno Scramble'. The entire restaurant was decked out in owl decor, from the menus, clocks, glasses, wall decorations, cookie jars and trinkets, just to name a few. Everything in there was also available for purchase. Everything at the table was scrumptious in the most satisfying way. My scramble was so satisfying, with the cheese and pickled jalapeños and the three poppers on top. The breakfast potatoes were so savory, seasoned just right and the huge flour tortilla and salsa were all perfectly complimenting. We each ordered drinks that came in owl mason jars, which we bought for $2 each. What a hidden gem for breakfast, brunch or lunch.

The food and ice tea were good. I picked up a BLT with a clever Toasted Owl title, and took it home. I had a Club Sandwich. Would I bring Sweet D here for lunch? That is always the question. Yes I would. Would I schedule the Phoenix Cane and Walker Society Friday Luncheon here? The conversation would be a litany of "What? What? What?" if there were any amount of crowd in the main dining room. That will not fly.

Since it's the weekend, we tried to get there early, around 8:30am, to beat the crowds. Luckily, we did. When we arrived, there were plenty of tables open and we were quickly seated. First impressions: The vibes are really nice. The decor is very aesthetic and picturesque. The staff were really nice. Since it was our first time, they guided us through the menu and went over their seasonal items. I ordered a Classic Breakfast and a Banana Walnut Latte. My fiancée ordered the Lydia's Seasonal Scramble and a Vanilla Waffle Cone latte. We shared a stack of the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes. We were very impressed with the taste of the food. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the potatoes were crispy and flavorful. The pancakes were absolutely delicious! Probably some of the best we've had. The lattes were okay. Overall, it was a nice experience. We'd definitely go back.

My friend was finishing her pancakes and said she wanted to order something else to eat at the table. When she tried to order more, the server immediately responded, "Oh, to go?" Shortly afterward, the server and hostess were standing together and repeatedly looking directly at our table, which made us feel extremely uncomfortable and unwelcome. Because of the pressure we kept feeling to leave, we asked whether there was a time limit on reservations. We were told there was not and that they were actually slower than normal, which made the repeated pressure to leave even more confusing and disappointing. We had also brought in 2 gifts and wanted to open them while celebrating, the server suggested that we could go across the way to Berdena's to do that instead and she would close us out. That really reinforced the feeling that they wanted us to finish up and leave rather than enjoy our time there. The decor is cute and the space itself is lovely, but we came to celebrate a birthday and expected to be able to sit, eat, talk, open gifts, and enjoy our time without feeling like we were taking up space. Sadly, that was not our experience. I don't think I'll be back.

There's a variety of seating to choose from. You can sit by the bar, at a booth in the back, or outside. I got the cottage bacon bene ($16.5) and it was such a nice portion and filled me up without eating the whole thing. I was able to take plenty leftovers home. :) I also got the strawberry banana smoothie ($7.75) and price is alright, but honestly probably the best strawberry banana smoothie I've had anywhere so far.

It was very busy, so I recognize staff are working hard. However, we had asked a question about the protein shake and she said she'd find out for us. She never did. And then, she dropped the check, said "no rush," but then proceeded to take a plate we were still working on. So clearly, she was rushed. And finally, when we paid with cash, she didn't give us our full change (she must have kept some of what she owed us, not a lot, but still). We assumed she kept that as part of her tip, so we tipped accordingly. Is Breakfast Club a restaurant we enjoy? Yes! And would I come back? Definitely for the Scottsdale location since service is better there. But I'd look to sit at the bar if and when we decided to come back to this location at the BILTMORE as service was not good.

I finally got a chance to try Otro Cafe, and I can definitely see why it's such a popular breakfast…read morespot in Phoenix. I ordered the Famous Flapjacks with eggs and the linguica sausage, and everything was excellent. The flapjacks absolutely lived up to their name. They were light, fluffy, buttery, and cooked perfectly with just the right amount of sweetness. Honestly, they're some of the best pancakes I've ever had. The linguica sausage was a great surprise. It had a nice smoky flavor with just a little kick, and it paired really well with the eggs and flapjacks. You can tell they use quality ingredients and take pride in what they serve. The atmosphere was relaxed, the staff was friendly, and the service was quick without making us feel rushed. It's the kind of place where you can sit back, enjoy a great breakfast, and actually savor the meal. I'll definitely be back to work my way through more of the menu, but one thing's for sure: the Famous Flapjacks are a must-order. If you're looking for an outstanding breakfast in Phoenix, Otro Cafe is well worth the visit.

Just prepare to be cozy because the space is small. The good reviews and pictures made me have high hopes. Maybe we went on a bad day, idk, but the food lacked flavor. We had to put a lot of salt, pepper, and salsa on it for it to be edible. I got the breakfast torta. It was flavorless. Even the chorizo, which is usually a meat with a ton of flavor. I also got a cajeta flapjack. That was good. My friends got the huevos rancheros, breakfast platter, barbacoa plate, and cajeta flapjack w/side of scrambled eggs. The scrambled eggs were flat and looked more like an omelette. The huevos rancheros was flavorless and needed lots of love. The only good thing besides the flapjack was the barbacoa and the linguica sausage. We opted out of drinks and ordered coffee from the cafe. I got the cajeta latte with half & half. It was delicious! I'd really only recommend coming here for the coffee. The food left much to be desired.
