    EGGS BENEDICT
    Steven G.

    A cozy diner with some charm but lacks in both ambiance and food. The eggs Benedict I ordered had poached eggs that were overcooked and were soft boiled. I didn't get that gooey yolk running over the prosciutto that I'd expect in a Benedict dish. The side of potatoes were crispy but should come with a sodium warning as they were extremely over salted.

    Owl Knick knacks

    I was excited to check out this new breakfast spot. It was a Sunday morning so it was busy. Luckily they have a reservation texting system. The waiter told us it would be about 30 minutes but it was more like 45 minutes until we were finally seated. It wasn't a big deal because we went to Target and the Dollar Store while waiting. Finally we got the text that our table is ready. After we are seated we had to wait about 10 minutes before the waitress finally came over. She was very apologetic and acknowledged that they were slammed because two servers had called out so it was even more busy for them. We understood and proceed to order. The decor is very cute with an owl theme -- my only ick moment was wondering how do they clean and dust all of that knick-knackery, I guess it is new enough at this moment but I can't imagine having to dust all of those owls, LOL. The menu only shows that they have a full bar in very small section of the menu so I immediately inquired if they had a bloody mary and yes indeed they did! We ordered these poste haste as well as the remainder of our breakfast, the "Big Fat French Toast", "Sweet Owl Cakes (basically pancakes), side of potatoes and a side of vegan bacon, plus (thank god) 100% maple syrup. My mom and I were splitting this breakfast. The bloodies arrived and they were average -- even though we ordered spicy they were not so we added pepper, Tapiato and some salt which improved the taste slightly. Thankfully the food didn't take too long to come out, it seemed quicker than when we waited for the server in the beginning so that was good. Unfortunately that was the extent of the good review. The pancakes were tasteless -- it really only tasted like the syrup -- I still ate them because I was hungry. They were a 4/10 on the pancake scale. The bread on the french toast was incredibly hard, stale and wasn't fully cooked all the way through -- pieces of it were practically inedible. I looked back at the menu and it was supposed to be brioche bread but it was very dark -- I have never seen brioche that dark before. It was not good. The french toast also came with bacon that was burnt and very very greasy -- I don't eat bacon but my mom tried it and gave me the review. The side potatoes were average and the vegan bacon was basically tempeh that was barely cooked. There were no spices on it or anything -- when I make vegan bacon I sauté it in soy sauce and other spices -- this was basically nearly raw tempeh -- yuk. Unfortunately due to all of the factors I don't think I would try this spot again.

    Growing pains are normal. Yesterday was day 1! Excited to have the chance to check out a new location since the OG Flag location is amazing. Timing was slow, again... day 1. The servers were amazingly kind and apologetic. I had the veg tamales. Temperature was good, flavors were spot on. There were 4 of us and the food came out at various times but nothing crazy. Our table also had a bloody and michelada, both were good. (The bloody was strong! Aka good.) I love the grandma's house weird decor and owls. Super fun, just like the original. I'm excited to give them a few months and come back. It's a great area and I'm sure they will work out the kinks!

    Decided to go to this place and participate in the $6.02 mimosas for 6/02/2026. Ordered the delicious veggie scramble. I really love their potatoes! Service was excellent and friendly!

    I was super stoked for this place to open since I love breakfast places and they're a small business. I waited a few weeks after they opened to make sure they were settled before visiting. Unfortunately, I was disappointed by a few things. Firstly, my friend and I's service wasn't too great. We went around 8 in the morning and there was barely any people, I'd say about 7-8 tables tops and half already had their food or had ordered. I think there were 3 servers working, 2 girls and a guy. I don't know our servers name because she didn't introduce herself. Anyway, when we sat down we were greeted but it was more of a "can I get you anything to drink" and not a formal greeting. I'm speaking from someone who works at a breakfast places, first impressions matter! Unfortunately, we weren't checked up on as much as the other tables she served, our orders got thrown away (and we had waited 20 minutes before finding this out), and my pancake had been forgotten in the second order until I brought it up halfway through breakfast. I don't want to come down on this server, I don't know her personal life, but knowing it wasn't busy and seeing others get serviced was disheartening. As for the environment, I think the decor was amazing and I'm a huge fan of being able to buy everything I see. It was immersive to their theme. One thing I also wasn't a fan of was their selection of sauces, or more, lack of. I do typically attend higher end diners, so I'm not gonna rag on their selections too long. It would be nice to see some thought put into their sauces instead of their only spicy one being cholula ranch, cholula or tobasco. I can have that at home. What I mean is, I come to these small businesses to be wowed by their creativity and effort, and I'm not wowed by their sauces. As for the food, the best part of this place. I ordered their vegetarian tamales and they are to DIE for. Packed with veggies, the maza outside was amazing and my poached eggs were lovely. Only note, the beans were too hard and not seasoned enough. That can be adjusted, I'm sure. The pancake I got (huge, as you can see) was delicious! I love when pancakes are so good they don't need syrup. Though, that brings me to another issue. I am an avid hater of corn-syrup syrup, and it was apparent from my friend's meal and reaction that's what we were served. He said it was bland and generic, better unused than used. That's saddening, since pancakes are my favorite thing to try at diners. Hopefully this gets upgraded in the future. Their limitless black coffee was pretty generic too and watery. I'm sure this quality can be upgraded. Overall, it was not the best first impression of the place, but the food was good enough I'd give them a second chance for it. It would be a few months from now once more of their issues have been identified and resolved.

    Ever since the Oink Cafe closed, I have been intrigued and interested in what would be opening in the space. When I heard that the Toasted Owl Cafe would be coming, I have been excited as I have heard good things about the Toasted Owl Cafes about their two Flagstaff locations and their Camelback location. As someone who lives near their Tatum and Cactus location, I can see myself as a regular in the future. The experience was good even though there are a few things that I'm sure that the staff are working on improving as today was literally their first day open. I went with my father and my sister for brunch today, and we were impressed by the ambiance and the decorations. There was no wait on their first day even though the place was quite busy. There are no reservations as they only accept customers on a first come, first serve basis. My father ordered a coffee and the Egg Breakfast consisting of 2 strips of bacon (or sausage), 2 scrambled eggs (or eggs any style), breakfast potatoes, and toast. My sister and I both ordered an order of Build-a-Breakfast Tacos which each included four corn tortillas with 2 fillings of our choice, scrambled eggs, cheddar, breakfast potatoes, and homemade salsa side. I ordered corned beef as both of my fillings while my sister chose no cheddar and instead three fillings of her choice. I really enjoyed my meal and was delighted when I learned that the salsa wasn't too hot. My father noted that his eggs were not warm though that was probably because they held all dishes so that they could come out together. There was also quite a wait for the meals. At the same point, this was their first day, so I could only imagine this improving over the next so many days. My sister was also charged for an extra side, but that was resolved when noting it to our server. The Toasted Owl has been around since 2013. Check out their website at https://www.thetoastedowl.com to see the regular and vegan menus, online ordering, locations and contacts, news, franchising information, community outreach, their story, and more. They have a dog friendly patio that is closed during the winter season though people were already eating on the patio. They sell Toasted Owl collectables including puzzles, stuffed animals, and so much more. This location is open from 7 AM to 3 PM daily. They have daily specials for mimosas and Bloody Mary's. If you go the website and have InKind, you can enter your e-mail for a coupon worth $20 off an order of $60+ being paid with InKind. Again, while there are things that could have been improved, I still enjoyed my experience and would recommend to anyone to give them a try. The staff were delightful and the menu items are healthy and creative. They also gave us a 20% off coupon good for a return visit through March 2026. I plan on returning again soon!

    I have been to the other Phoenix toasted owl location a couple times but hadn't been in a while and wanted to check out the PV location! First off, great spot. Right near target so perfect if you have to do post brunch shopping haha. The entrance confused us a little bit but we figured it out, there was plenty of parking too. Ambiance is absolutely adorable here, you can buy the vintage decor and stuff they have! And service is speedy! They have a good variety on their menu and a dedicated vegan portion. My husband and I started off with coffee and a cinnamon roll. I got my coffee iced, I do wish they had simple syrup or something but the flavored creamer was fine! The cinnamon roll was ok, the outer edges were kinda hard and not particularly warm and gooey. It was fine, just nothing special. Other visits I've had the avocado toast so this time I got the chilaquiles with avocado instead of meat and eggs. They do a vegan version too but I don't really like vegan meat/eggs typically. They were yummy but could've used a bit more cheese or a side of beans or something! My husband got bacon, eggs, potatoes, and toast. He doesn't really like that style of potatoes but I do so he shared with me! Our son tried a little bit or everything and seemed to like it! He was very excited about the owl decor as well haha. Not outrageously expensive compared to other nearby spots, worth checking out!

    First timers we had a party of five seated quickly maybe six people in the restaurant. I ordered the chilaquiles with 2 eggs over easy on top. Sorry to say my order wasn't that good. The chilaquiles were very cold as well the eggs. On the other hand, everyone else's food was good! So 4 out of 5 stars

    This location is new here- really nostalgic and fun interior! Great service but two of the three dishes we ordered was wrong. Glad they had vegan options!! We will try this one again in the future when they have the kinks worked out.

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.

She made us feel welcome from the moment we sat down and checked on us just the right amount. We ordered two BEC sandwiches, which sadly are no longer on the menu, but wow, they were delicious! The bacon was cooked to perfection, crispy and flavorful, and everything tasted fresh and satisfying. Instead of the greens, we opted for the Million Dollar Potatoes and they were super yum! Such a tasty choice and the perfect addition to the meal. Great service, delicious food, and a lovely breakfast experience. Thank you, Arely, for taking such good care of us. We will definitely be back!

    Decided to go to First Watch since I was familiar with the franchise after going to one in Houston…read more This location is within a rather small parking lot which seems to be dedicated to First Watch, we were able to find a spot near the back of the lot but it was quite crowded when we arrived around 11am. 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.
