    A "Toast" for delicious food and great service. This was my first time at Toast and it won't be my last. There is plenty of parking and the waiting area has plenty of seating. The ambiance is welcoming and unique. You can feel the good vibes as soon as you walk in and greeted by the host. Our wait time was about 15 minutes. Not long at all for a weekend. We ordered the bottle of champagne for mimosas. I went with the pineapple juice. The food is top notch. I went with eggs Benedict. Cooked to perfection and full-on flavor. I recommend this. Service was also top notch. Our server was friendly and attentive. She made some great suggestions and happily answered pur questions. They have several options and something for everyone. I'm definitely going back to tey other dishes. It's also family friendly. Love it!

    Denver omlette
    Moses M.

    Toast is a fantastic place to visit. Essentially anything you order will be tasty. The Chile Quilles is their specialty, and can be customized with red or green sauce. It is excellent, and I prefer the green. For an extra 20 you can add ribeye, otherwise it is a vegetarian option. My second favorite is the Denver omelet, which is a decent size and comes with fruit. Staff is very friendly and upbeat. Ambience is upbeat as well, and this is a nice clean establishment. In this particular visit I came with a party of 12 and they were able to reserve tables and serve us at our own pace. This is an excellent spot for celebrations. They have a bar where you can grab a few mimosas while you wait for a table. Drink prices are typical and they offer mimosa flights if you want to try different things. PRO TIP: Try the margaritas. You won't be disappointed.

    Delicious brunch spot with great food and cozy vibe We came to Toast Kitchen and Bar on Whittier Blvd and really enjoyed it. The food was delicious and full of flavor. I had the green chilaquiles and they were amazing -- so much flavor in that green chili sauce. My husband got the stuffed French toast with berries and it was just as good, sweet and rich but not too heavy. The Abuelita hot chocolate with two espresso shots was perfect and hit the spot. The whole place has a cozy, nicely decorated vibe that makes it feel warm and welcoming. The service was great and everyone was friendly. Definitely a place I'll be going back to.

    First off, this place gets busy on the weekends for brunch! So, a reservation is a must. This is my 2nd time here. The service and foods were great per usual. The ambiance is nice. A bit loud but not too bad because we're all chatting away catching up with good friends.

    Great food, great service, great atmosphere. Friendly staff, upon arrival. We were an hour ahead of our reservation and they were able to seat us within 25 minutes. Cameron was so sweet and attentive. I'm a classic breakfast type of gal, so that's what I got. The potatoes were the best. Perfectly cooked to a crisp. The bacon was perfectly crisp too. Eggs were ok. I'll used to pasture raised, but I know eggs are a hot commodity these days. The sourdough toast is good too. We shared the churro French toast which were delicious. We were celebrating a couple of birthdays so Cameron brought us a slice of carrot cake and a slice of chocolate cake. They were both good, but the carrot cake was slightly more moist. Overall, great, and I'd definitely come back again.

    We went here on a Saturday. It wasn't super packed, lots of open tables but service was bad. Our server was actually rude. We ended up getting our own utensils. Refills on water were never provided (we had a hard time requesting as she was hardly available). We had to ask other servers for extra sauce. Heck, even when a friend paused to tell our server that she enjoyed her meal, the server left without even waiting to hear her out. The only time we saw half a smile was when she came for bill payment. This was honestly one of the worst service I have ever had. The food was okay. My chips got too soggy, too quick. I was honestly disappointed in so many ways.

    Organic ketchup!
    Michele P.

    Yes!!!!!! ORGANIC ketchup...at a place like this.? VERY impressive! Ambiance: How can you overlook the late 80s pop music? The Himalayan pink sea salt added a nice touch to the table. Matches very well with the gaudy teal, pink and olive green decor. Food: The French toast was thick and hearty. The Nutella toast was generously spread and not skimpy at all. The kids meal was most certainly sufficient for an adult meal! Look at the color of the egg yolk! Seems like pasture raised, to me. The burger patty was quite thin (think McDonalds), but that was my only complaint.

    Amazing ! I definitely recommend this brunch spot ! Bartender working was amazing. He was helpful with the drink menu. He helped me figure out something I would love. I ended up getting the match horchata martini. SOOO GOOODD. I loved it been craving it ever since. The chilaquiles were amazing as well as the potatoes. Everything was great. The vibes in there were amazing as well. Super calm not too crazy. A lot of families come in. 10/10 recommend

    We used to go to Toast when it was on First Street, so walking into this new Whittier location felt like leveling up. The space is beautiful, modern, clean, and stylish with a beautiful interior design that gives it a polished welcoming vibe. Whoever designed this place deserves a shoutout, because it makes you want to linger over your latte instead of rushing out. We came for breakfast and left full; portions are generous, and the flavors hit the mark. I had chicken and waffles and breakfast burrito, which were hearty and satisfying without being overly greasy. My wife went for an omelet and everything was well-prepared. It's definitely on the pricier side, though, so just know you're paying a little extra for the setting and the vibe. Worth it? Mostly, especially if you're in the mood for something a little more elevated than your average brunch spot. One heads-up: bottomless champagne is only on weekdays, which was a bit of a letdown since we visited on a Saturday. The staff was friendly, so no real complaints. Overall, it's a great brunch option in a chill, Instagram-worthy setting. We'll definitely be back.

    So far this is one of my favorite brunch spots by me! I've literally tried half the items from the menu and have never been disappointed in the slightest! Food is amazing, I love the chilquiles, Spanish and Chorizo Omeletes, Pumpkin Spice Pancakes, I could go on! They did change the menu about a year ago, and I do miss some of these items including the skillets and Deep Fried Pancakes that I literally used to always come here for. Mimosas is a must here- and you can get a pretty good deal on them too. And their Expresso or Horchata Matcha Martini. It is a quiter restaurant, and you can come here for a nice brucnh or lunch, as well as dinner. It's a nice and calm place to visit friends and family with, I have brought many people here as the food, service, and ambience is always relaible and pleasing to the senses.

    Lavender latte
    Tara Y.

    Toast is such a cute spot for breakfast and brunch. The vibes are super girly and aesthetic. I ordered the lavender latte and the chicken and waffles, and both were so good. You can tell they put effort into the presentation and flavor. Service was great with friendly and attentive staff. Just a heads up, it does get really busy so the food can take a little longer to come out. They also only serve breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays, no lunch on those days. Overall, a really great spot and I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking for a fun and delicious brunch experience.

    Chilaquiles
    Jaycee C.

    First timer and came for brunch. Definitely would recommend getting a reservation as this place seems to be busy. We had a resy at 11am and still had to wait 10-15 minutes for a table. We ordered mimosas (bottle) with a flight of Juices which I thought was cool. The service was a bit slow because probably the kitchen was also backed up a bit. I had the eggs Benedict and my friends ordered the chicken and waffles and the chilaquiles. Food was good, but I wouldn't say it's my fav. Overall good experience. This place def gets stars for me because they have their own parking lot. I'm always used to paying for parking lol!

    Can a party of 9 be accommodated?

    Yes absolutely we love big parties

    Any military discount? If so, how does it work?

    All day every day at all of our restaurants. It’s 10% off total bill. You can how them your va card v on your dl anything from American legion or vfw, dd215

    Is there still a happy hour? Is the cheeseboard appetizer gone?

    When did it change from brunch and dinner to only brunch? The name changed and everything :(

    Their food is delicious. They offer bar service, too. Mimosa plight is really good.

    Do you have to have a reservation?

    No, but they do get very busy so it would be a good idea.

    Gluten free options?

    Yes. I was there with ppl that don't have gluten and they enjoyed steak and potatoes. I'm sure you could find a few other things on the menu and they are pretty accommodating to special requests.

    How much does brunch cost?

    About $15-$25. It varies. There are some over $30 but they have steaks in them. Average of regular branches are between $15-$25 I would say. You can check the menu.

    Is there bottomless mimosas on weekdays?

    Bottomless Mimosas are not available.

    Can we order from dinner menu for a weekend brunch?

    You can view the available menus on their websitehttps://www.mimosaswhittier.com/menu

    Yes

    Hello, just wanted to know how much is your Sunday brunch? How far in advance do you have to make a reservation for a party of 12 for a bridal shower?

    The brunch is order off the menu, not buffer. I would try at least 3 weeks in advance they only do two large party reservations per Saturday and Sunday brunch. This would be considered a large part for sure.

    Is there a corkage fee?

    The corkage fee is $25 per bottle, max 3 bottles per table. Only wine and bubbles. No magnums.

    Are you asking for proof of Covid vaccination?

    When I ate there they didn't ask 2 2 weeks ago

    Are you open New Year's Day?

    Yes, they are. Confirmed that today

    Is breakfast served all day?

    Breakfast is served until 3 pm.

    Hi, is this a place where dressing up is recommended? Or is it more casual?

    The atmosphere and decor are super cute. I suggest checking out their Instagram page @mimosaswhittier for inspo.

    Do they have a bottomless Mimosa brunch at any time?

    Bottomless Mimosas are not available at any time. You have the option of purchasing a bottle of brut at a reasonable price with a choice of fresh juice or a single Mimosa. They have a selection of fun flavors for single Mimosas!

    Is this restaurant affiliated with Toast in Whittier, it looks similar to Toast kitchen and bar in brea?

    Hello there... yes, it is.. Cindy is the owner to Toast whittier, Toast Brea, The Benediction in Industry, Mimosas Ehittier and soon Mimosas Anaheim Hills.

We were even given rolls with butter as well. We actually chose this place because they have a cheese wheel and no one ended up ordering that. They also were very attentive and refilled our water without us asking. I got the rigatoni a las vodka with chicken, and my two other friends got the baked rigatoni and the fettuccine Alfredo. Our dishes were delicious and perfectly seasoned. We also ordered the chocolate Gelato and tiramasu for dessert. Those were a perfect night cap to our dinner and catch up session. The restaurant is deceptively big and had a whole back area, I am guessing for large parties. It was very clean and we were able to catch up without any issues. I definitely recommend coming here for the food and excellent service.

Today I took my sister to introduce her to the best steak sandwich around. She started eating before me and said it was not that good. I'm looking at her like she's crazy as I put mayo and mustard on my Sammy. I take the first bite and notice this is NOT the flavor that I had before. Added a little salt and pepper thinking that will help. NOPE! Each bite was tough and loaded with gristle or inedible fat or something that I couldn't separate with my teeth. I'm pulling pieces apart and having to eat around the tough meat. I took the sandwich up to the register and asked them if they changed the cut of meat they use. They said no, it's always been either rib eye or NY. Every single one of the many I'd had before were the same. This one was different. Even looked different, as if it had been run through a machine in an attempt to tenderize it. Didn't work! You could see through some parts kind of like the way a knitted scarf would look If you stretched it out and could see the holes in it. Anyway, the guy said, "You must have got a tough cut" or "bad cut". I can't remember exactly the wording. But then he just shrugged me off. No offer to fix the problem. I was hungry, I hadn't had breakfast, and it was obvious the guy didnt care, so I just went back to my table and ate the rest of the bread and fixings while gnawing off any edible meat from my horrible steak. $26 for a sandwich and fries. Not willing to spend that much and hope I get a good cut of meat. I'm done.

They had an assortment of three different breads and all were tasty. - Jidori Chicken Schnitzel: This is a thinly sliced, breaded, chicken breast topped with capers and served with a charred half lemon and a lemon/butter sauce on the side. It was juicy and the breading added a nice crunch. Amazing flavor and I would order this again. - Center Cut Ribeye (Medium Rare): The steak was served with some roasted garlic and rosemary and was cooked perfectly. - Potatoes Au Gratin: The flavor for the potatoes au gratin was there, but I wish the potatoes were sliced more thinly. They were too chunky and I felt some bits needed to be cooked a little longer. - Brussels Sprouts: This is THEE side to order. The bacon steak is an add on for $10. Pricey, but necessary. They were so good and we couldn't get enough. - Butter Cake: If you know about Maestro's famous butter cake, then this is strong competition if not on par with Maestro's. Absolutely delicious and paired very nicely with their cappuccino. Service was 10/10 as well.

It is very loud here with a full restaurant of diners, the live DJ and football games going with loud cheering fans, so if you have sensitive hearing, bring some ear plugs.

    Came here for the first time last night and I was not disappointed. Everyone was very nice and…read morewelcoming. The restaurant is clean and lots of room. Now for the food AMAZING! We started out with the corn and moved to pork belly tacos that were delicious. My sister opted for the three tacos with different meats. We shared a side of rice. Be aware the portions are big!!!!! Of course I couldn't resist a few margaritas that were well made. We will definitely be back soon! Thanks for a great experience. Oh I almost forgot the churros are the way to end the meal.
