    Food was so good, and they have a full bar too! I usually go for a dirty martini , but honestly, it's such a fun spot for breakfast/brunch. Great food, good drinks, and the perfect way to start the day!

    Smoked Salmon and cucumber avocado toast with hash brown chips (bottom right)
    Brianna W.

    Went with my girls for a brunch/lunch meet up. Make sure to make a reservation as this place gets busy. They had a cute selection of cocktails to choose from. I ordered an avocado toast (like their namesake) with smoked salmon on top and it was delicious. There was a good amount of avocado and smoked salmon. The cucumbers helped to add a much needed crunch. I had the choice of sourdough bread, and I wish the bread was more sour. For the side, I had the hash brown chips. The hash browns chips were so yummy it deserves its own paragraph. If you are a fan of crispy fries, this is it. I loved to each these chips with ketchup and some Tabasco sauce. I found myself disappointed there weren't more hashbrown chips, not because I wasn't full, but because my taste buds wanted more!

    Chicken and waffles. Very good
    Evonne G.

    Just had a lovely brunch here. Thaer was our server. Thank you for the excellent service! The food is consistently great. Our table ordered the crunch berries french toast, classic breakfast, chicken and waffles, and the breakfast croissant. Everything was delicious and came out surprisingly quick considering how packed the restaurant was. Vanilla lattes were on point. Excellent food and service, plus they accept reservations.. What more can you ask for?

    This place gets packed for lunch time. Thankfully it has a large parking lot but would recommend getting here early to snag a spot closer to the entrance. The space inside was very large. It splits into a right side and left side at the check-in desk. Interior design was beautiful and when we arrived for brunch, all seats were filled so would recommend making a reservation. I ordered the Classic Benedict w Cesar Salad. It was a perfect benedict and very filling. I did wish the Cesar salad had more of the dressing flavor. It looked well dressed however I wasn't tasting much of the dressing. Overall, I still enjoyed my food and our server was friendly and attentive, despite how busy the restaurant was.

    The Restaurant Is On The Corner Of State College & Birch. It Shares The Same Parking Lot As Residence Inn. My First Visit Was On Sunday, 5/31/26. Had A Reservation At 12:30pm. A Reservation Is Highly Recommended, Because It Was Packed When I Arrived!!! The Noise Level Was High!! Very Friendly Staff & Server. Food Was Pretty Good Along With The BloodyMaria I Had!

    Service was excellent and enjoyed the variety of food options. There was something for everyone to cater to our diverse flavor desires! The interior ambience is really pretty too with plenty of parking right outside.

    Churro French Toast, Chocolate Velvet Pancake, Breakfast Burrito
    Kiana L.

    I love coming to Toast Kitchen & Bar. It honestly feels like a little hidden gem, and every time I visit it reminds me why I keep coming back. On our last visit we ordered the breakfast burrito, velvet waffles, and the churro French toast, and everything was really good. I have to say though, the breakfast burrito is easily one of the best I've had. It's actually the one thing I always order whenever I come here because it's just that good. It's hearty, flavorful, and super satisfying, making it the perfect brunch dish. The velvet waffles were also great. They weren't overly sweet, which I personally like, and when paired with the cream cheese frosting it created a really nice balance of flavors. It felt indulgent without being too heavy. The churro French toast was another highlight and had that warm cinnamon sugar flavor that made it feel like a fun brunch treat. The restaurant itself is also really spacious inside, which makes the whole experience feel relaxed and comfortable. It's a great place to come with friends and actually sit, chat, and enjoy your meal without feeling rushed. The staff are also very friendly and welcoming, which always makes the visit even better.

    Steak & Eggs
    Clarisa M.

    It is rare, when a place that serves steaks actually cook your steak to your liking. I asked for medium rare, and I received medium rare! Slight up charge for a rib eye but wow. This place is amazing. Clean, staff is friendly, restrooms are cute! I'm trying not to start the day off with so much sugar in the morning so I had a black coffee with milk. They have a variety of lattes, and yummy looking pastries. I will be stopping by again. Definitely recommend!

    Spicy Watermelon Margarita
    Yvette S.

    This is a great spot to have brunch with friends. The inside is spacious and can be great for groups. I think their coffee and cocktails are solid. Their plates are massive and shareable. I wouldn't say the food is great. It's just okay. I've had their green chilaquiles. They come with Spanish rice and black beans. It wasn't a standout dish, and I wasn't a fan of the rice or beans. My friend loved her Spanish omelette and the house potatoes they're served with. I went on a Friday morning and we were sat right away. However, I have seen it packed on weekends, so you might have a wait depending on the window you visit. The staff wasn't inviting. They felt a bit cold. It's pricey spot, but I recommend sharing a plate since they're massive.

    Breakfast burger
    Brandon K.

    Overall was okay just because it did take some time to get our food. Since we were sitting for about 25 minutes before we got our food. The hash brown chips sounded interesting but it is just potatoes that they cut into really small pieces but they werent crispy. Main problem is my girlfriend went to the restroom and it wasn't restocked yet with any paper towels. She went before we ordered they said they would get on it. After we finished she went again but still wasnt restocked yet so not sure if they forgot or was really busy.

    Short rib chilaquiles
    Karina M.

    I was excited to try this place because of all the hype, but unfortunately it didn't live up to expectations. We were seated quickly on the patio with our dog, which I appreciated. However, the service was surprisingly slow, especially considering the patio wasn't busy and we arrived before noon. No one offered a water bowl for our dog despite the sunny weather, and we ended up opening our own umbrella because no staff member checked on us. Even getting water refills took much longer than expected. As for the food, it was underwhelming. The French toast was very dry, and the chocolate drizzle completely overpowered the dish. The red chilaquiles lacked flavor, the short rib was just okay and nothing memorable, and both the beans and rice were disappointing, with the rice being mushy. The biggest letdown was the cucumber Spritz cocktail. It tasted mostly like plain club soda with very little flavor. Overall, I don't understand the hype. While the seating was quick and the patio was nice, the slow service and bland food made for a disappointing experience, and I wouldn't return based on this visit.

    Requested a West side with Vodka!
    Nadine Q.

    "BET" This is a Hot spot it will not disappoint go ahead and Book your breakfast/brunch reservation on Yelp otherwise you will find your self and your family waiting! Ask to sit at Luke's tables he is super awesome! Friendly, attentive and helpful! Leo is the manager he is also super helpful and nice! Food is pretty good our family favorites are Steak and eggs with Country fried potatoes! FYI you might want to request your waffle not be overcooked and burnt request soft it takes so much better! The veggie omelette is also a good choice! If you're looking for a restaurant that could accommodate large parties this is your spot! Issa whole vibe!!! Mommy juice if you like vodka get the pear pressure, and request an east side with vodka Bartenders could make Eric and Chewy are the best there as far as bartenders, and if you feel like Tequila get the mescal margaritas a regular customer my husband and I met on New Year's Eve introduced us to this and it is a hit!!! Loyal customer here for brunch and dinner!!! Dinner is a must too my personal fave the appetizer short rib tacos sauce on the side, main Chicken piccata is chefs kiss and the short rib dinner is so yummy!!!

    Victoria P.

    Good simple brunch spot. We were able to make reservations for breakfast on a Saturday! By 9am there was a decent crowd of people. There was a variety of dishes such as chilaquiles, avocado toasts, French toasts and Benedicts. All dishes come with a side. Side options: potatoes, hash browns, fries , fruit, Caesar Salad or Arugula Salad l. We split breakfast burrito that has sausage ham and bacon, with cheese egg and hash brown with green salsa, along with a salmon Benedict. Service was fast and good came out at a reasonable time. Lattes were delicious. They offer oat milk as a nondairy milk substitute.

    The reservations are booked until 8/6/21 :( how long is the wait usually for a group of maybe 7?

    There shouldn't be any waiting time. This is a regular Friday. We waited 20 minutes on Mother's Day but never on a regular day.

    Is it the same chef as the Dylan because the food was not good and I'll try it if it's better food ?!And is it the same company as the Costa Mesa Toast because it looks like same sign/font as Costa Mesa?

Perfectly sweet and served with dulce de leche, strawberry syrup with fresh strawberries and vanilla ice cream.. they all go well with the butter cake.

I loved the cheese crusted tortilla on their tacos, and the cueva taco was my fave out of the four! The steak was dry so it was my least fave but the Korean and birria taco were also yummy! Nice way to sample their different tacos! Their guava agua Fresca was a refreshing drink to go with my tacos. My friend ordered their cheese enchiladas in their cream red sauce. She said it was different from any red sauce she has ever had but she said she enjoyed her enchiladas. Service was attentive and friendly. Each server checked in on us regularly. Came here on a Saturday for lunch and it was surprisingly not busy at all like how it used to be. Overall, the food was just like I remembered and I wish I had come back sooner.

For me this is a perfect spot to have a beer while I charge my car at the supercharger. The ambience is that of a pub so a darker feel and the wooden decor.

They have a large bar area that you can sit or the tables. They offer a wide variety of bourbons and malts. I personally like that they offer Guinness on tap and it's always perfect. They have a lot of Hardy British food such as fish and chips and shepherds pie. My boyfriend has gotten to Shepherd pie in the past and it was good just a little bit different than we expected. The pastry was crispy and the sauce was creamier. The fish and chips were delicious. They tend to have different types of entertainments throughout the week. I'm not sure of what day is what but I have seen a magician going around the tables and entertaining families or just groups of friends. I know one night is karaoke night another night they have live music and I am not sure what other types of entertainment they offer. This is a very casual restaurant to come enjoy a good time. I also came here for a few of the World Cup matches and it was a lot of fun! Based on their food, ambience, friendliness and variety of alcohol and drinks that they offer I would say that this is my favourite bar to come by myself and I feel comfortable.
