Best and probably only place in AJ to get a Espresso Martini . Someone, please prove me wrong. read more

We came here for breakfast around 10am on a Saturday and got seated right away. Our waitress was friendly. I ordered the spinach eggs Benedict with potatoes and it was delicious! I also tried the fresh-squeezed orange juice and omg that was amazing. I ordered an iced coffee and that was alright. We also ordered the crack fries and those were good, but not amazing in my opinion. There is a dirt parking lot and both indoor and outdoor seating. There is also a bar area inside. read more

ooooof the atmosphere here was capital U uncomfortable. between the crosses, the statues of deceased US Generals (George Washington is staring right at me as I write this), and all the Marshall's generic wall art, this is somewhere I'd rather order from than sit in on. all that to say, the food was pretty good for its price! I got the breakfast sandwich with avocado and tomato and it was pretty filling! the cheese really matched the vibe of the establishment though if we're being honest. however the mimosa was very juice forward but that may just be an Andie issue. and above all my waitstaff was lovely and attentive! granted I was the only patron in the restaurant, but she was constantly checking on me and was very accommodating for my requests! read more

Look, if you want a perfect breakfast/brunch spot in AJ, this is it. I routinely stop here on roadtrips to the lakes or tortilla flats. The food is well priced, generous portions and always excellent! Its a bit if a diner drive-in and dive feel, so don't expect Scottsdale fine dining; that being said it is very pleasant, clean, the decor is amusing and eating here is just plain simple pleasure in life. The staff have always been prompt and very friendly and courteous. For what they are trying to be, a solid 5 stars!! read more

The service (our server was Ashley) has always been spectacular, fun,funny,friendly and professional. The breakfast foods are impeccable at the very least. I have not ever had a bad breakfast there. Perfectly cooked every time I've eaten there. The ambiance is fun and clean. I highly recommend. read more

What an amazing find in Apache Junction. I can't wait to go back. The funky desert chic, the service and the food-- what a combo!

Visited Toast on MLK Day to pass some time while we were waiting to get in to Lost Dutchman State Park. First off, their space is so cute! There's a bar and lots of seating in the main restaurant. They also had an outside patio overlooking the lot. The atmosphere felt very homey, overall! Their menu consisted of breakfast classics and some with Mexican flair. I ordered the chilaquiles and my boyfriend ordered the breakfast burrito. Both were good, but not extraordinary! The chilaquiles could have some extra spice to them - whether it is the salsa itself or the chicken tinga. The burrito on the menu said that there would be avocado slices, and it came with a single slice on the top of the burrito. Next time, I will order something on the American side of the menu - pancakes looked yummy! The wait staff was super friendly. They informed us and other folks that they don't allow outside food/drink (context: I had an energy drink when I walked in), and they kindly asked us if we could put it back in our cars others could hold it up front - which I was happy to do! Our specific waitress was kind and cracked jokes with me, and the other staff members were helpful when asked questions or directions. I'd recommend if you're in town! :) read more

An absolute dime of a place in a location where there is not a ton of options. Seems like a bit of a hole in the rock, but seriously one of my favorite breakfast places I've been to. The servers were extremely friendly, nice little bar area to sit at as well. The food looked terrific and can confirm it tasted just how it looked. The Scrambles were their popular item and favorites. Portion size doesn't disappoint. Will definitely be back! read more

Toast Gio’s Breakfast & Lunch - Scramble Mexicano - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Apache Junction, Arizona

My son chose this option while we were in town for a car repair on Friday morning. First impression was that it seems super cute: outside dining with stylish curtains to block sun, and colorful interior. When I sat down I was blasted by the air and blinded by the sun. I moved to one side of the booth and it was better. Then, I attempted to order French toast and was told they ran out of brioche and the bread delivery was late. So I decided on biscuits and gravy with scrambled eggs. I prefer my scrambled eggs in pieces instead of one piece (see photo). Gravy wasn't horrible but I didn't taste much of any seasoning. Biscuits were dry and not buttery. Bacon was good. My son barely ate his pancakes which is very unusual. We all thought it was strange to get Italian sausage instead of a traditional breakfast sausage link as a side. My mom ate her food but it didn't look great. Hashbrowns looked undercooked. Breakfast scramble was served with cherry tomatoes versus diced tomatoes. Another disappointment was having to ask for ketchup and syrup numerous times because they only bring small containers to the table instead of the full containers or carafes. Lastly, we spent over $60 on a meal we barely touched. Service was good. Waitress checked on us regularly and was very polite and nice. I think they're attempting to be high end in somewhat of a dumpy area and the recipes are not good enough to deserve the prices. Don't waste your time or money. read more

The hash browns were the unexpected star here. Crispy around the edges, soft in the middle, and seasoned well enough that I kept stealing bites between everything else. The staff had a friendly, easygoing manner, and the bright breakfast-diner setup felt cheerful without being too busy. read more

The one dish that stood out weeks later is the bananas foster pancakes. It was so delicious. Everything else didn't stand out compared to that dish. The coffee was all right, since I didn't realize it came with a bunch of whipped cream. The eggs Benedict with bacon was solid. The service was good and friendly. The atmosphere is of a quaint mom/pop restaurant. I'd definitely go back for the pancakes though. read more

I never get tired of Toast Gio. Their breakfast has a broad lead over their their local breakfast spots specific to the food quality and flavor. While other breakfast spots may serve a larger portion, they are normally coated in too much sodium. TG gets it just right every time. I will note the service was slow on my most recent visit but still a 5 star for overall food quality. Don't be afraid to try their cocktails either - really a step above others. read more

We went there today after a morning of Emission Testing on the Truck. I was glad that we thought about this place before we ended up going back to Mesa. We both had the Eggs My Way and everything was great. Coffee refilled and waitress came by to see how things were at least 3-4 times. Eggs, Bacon and Hashbrowns were cooked great. I really enjoy this place. It could really have a nice view if the little area outside was cleaned up a little. Directly outside restaurant is very clean, just some debris over in wash area that obstructs the great desertscape. We will be back!! Our waitress was very good and always had a smile on her face. Very Nice. read more

With Kristy and we were hungry for breakfast before grocery shopping. This cute restaurant is not far at all from my house! We didn't have long to wait for a booth since it was just us two and we got great service. Our waitress was very nice and accomodating. Had our drinks filled and checked on us a lot. Both of us ordered the Chiliquiles. Turns out I know the girls who bus tables here since I used to work with their mom! Small world! This is a great place. The food is delicious and the service is very good! I'll definitely be back again for breakfast and also to try lunch! read more

Fantastic experience. Staff to food great. We tried breakfast tacos, Carnitas toast, eggs Benedict, chilaquiles, veggie scramble. Nothing left on our plates. It was bustling at 10:30 am on Saturday. Very efficient. Known also for their cocktails. Will be back. Locals in the know spot. read more

We just ate here and got charged 57.00 for coffees priced at 7.75. We had 2 each you do the math.. and then when we asked about it we were told that "oh sorry that price is for singles." Not one time did I ever ask for a double. I wanted a lost Dutchman's coffee. Period. This place does this every single time. I will never recommend this place. They are sneaky and will tell you "oh I'm sorry. Tough luck you ordered one thing but we are gonna give them something else and then charge you for it..." read more

From the service to the food, everything here is amazing. I highly recommend giving this place a try!

Great food! I've been a few times and the service is fast. I recommend the huevos rancheros!

The service and environment were not pleasant. I sat at the bar, next to a pile of dirty glasses and waited a few minutes for the bartender to acknowledge me. I remained hopeful because the reviews of the food and pictures looked awesome, but I was dissapointed. I could have made the Gio's favorite sandwich better at home! It lacked flavor and was served on boring white toast. Also, please be advised that the breakfast sandwich is not served with a side, which is peculiar because half of the plate is empty! So, I ended up ordering a side of potatoes. I also ordered one Nutella pancake but was surprised when they brought out the pancake with two Nutella packets on the side, I didn't realize it was "top your own pancake" style. The pancake itself was the best thing I had, it was fluffy and the syrup added good flavor. Although located close to my home, I will not be back. I'd rather go to my local First Watch, chain breakfast place. read more

Toast has been a delight to visit since going their first week opened. I've enjoyed breakfast the last couple of years, but had the pleasure of trying lunch for the first time & loved the burger! Don't sleep on lunch at this brunch spot. Carly, Jamie, Blanca, and all the staff make amazing food become a great dining experience! They are so friendly, remember my order, and suggest options when I'm feeling adventurous! Love having a quick chat while I enjoy the quant, festively decorated dining room or bar seating. I will frequent several times a month and continue to suggest this great locally owned and operated restaurant to support local! If you are local, don't forget in the summers you can visit the chamber for a shop local card and receive a discount at this establishment during the summer months. read more

10/10! My husband and I came for the first time around 10 am on a Sunday. We barely beat the rush but are so grateful that we came. The staff greet you with friendly faces & you can tell they all work very hard to accommodate the flow of traffic. It can seem a little crowded but my husband and I both agreed it makes the experience "homey." We tried the divorced Benedict (to DIE for) and the breakfast burrito (that came out straight from the stove) We immediately fell in love with this place and have told ourselves we'll come here over any other breakfast place nearby. :) Thanks!! read more

Stopped in for a bite to eat this morning and was very pleased with the service and food! The restaurant was busy, but we were quickly greeted and offered a smile. I love all the Knick knacks and different fun things around the restaurant making for a very homey feel. After a short wait, we were seated in a booth. We had multiple people stop by our table throughout the visit, all very happy to help and with pleasant smiles. Our server was Carly and she was an absolute gem. It was my first time in, but not for my cousin and uncle who I was dining with. Carly made me feel at home and like we had been good pals for years. The coffee, Bloody Mary, and biscuits with gravy meal were all so delicious! Carly was more than happy to allow me to customize my meal, subbing eggs for breakfast potatoes and bacon in place of the sausage which typically comes. It's nice to not feel like an inconvenience when you are wanting to change up a menu item. The coffee was served in unique mugs which I absolutely adored! Jamie stopped by for a chat and shared a story behind the mugs which made my heart happy as we all had mentioned how we love that the mugs differ from each other. Absolutely a 5/5 star experience. I will certainly be back! :) read more

What a great 1st experience! We sat at the bar. Danielle was tending the bar. She was friendly and fun and knowledge re: the menu/drinks ect. We ordered a mimosa & Bloody Mary. Both were really good & cold! Food was awesome! I had the Eggs Benedict & my Hubs had the chicken fried steak. I ordered the the hash browns and my husband ordered the home fries. Both were fresh & crispy, not the deep fried nuggets some places serve.(Thank you chefs!) We can't wait to return! All the staff were very friendly. Also, in the pic, the yellow that looks like egg yoke is their homemade habanero sauce....AMAZING! We will be back for sure!! read more
