    A great local diner in Glendale. There are multiple Toasted Bun locations around LA but I have only been to this Glendale location. It's a traditional retro-style diner so it's a great option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. My favorite diner meal is breakfast so we decided to stop in for our first time this Saturday morning for breakfast and had a great meal. There is medium-sized free parking lot attached next to the restaurant otherwise it will be street parking. Our server was very polite and all of our food items came out extremely fast. It was under 10 minutes after ordering that we got our food. Inside is quite large and divided into a few rows of booth seating. They have a fairly large menu so it was hard to choose what I wanted to order. I started with a coffee which I recommend because it's strong and tasty here. For my meal I chose the Chilaquiles Verdes with Carne Asada and thought it was honestly great. The Carne Asada was especially good and seasoned and the portion size was very healthy. We also ordered Eggs and Pancakes and the eggs were terrific as well as the pancakes. The food tastes great and the pricing is fair so I would suggest to anyone searching for a solid breakfast option in Glendale.

    Corn Pancake

    I was waiting for my car getting serviced by the Toyota dealership and looked for a place to grab some coffee. I looked at the reviews and saw "corn pancakes". I got intrigued and ordered it with eggs and bacon. The corn pancakes are a must! It does have a good flavor and bits of corn and delicious with the butter. The eggs and bacon were alright but the pancakes are the star of the show. The place did give diners vibes and I find the decor with cute pastel colors. Service was pretty attentive especially with the coffee refills, which kept flowing. I'd go back!

    Food and service was great. We sat outside because it was easy for my mother since she was on her walker/wheelchair. Food was very good. Will definitely come back again.

    I stopped in this morning after dropping my car off at the Honda dealership down the street for some TLC. It's a couple of blocks away and must really enjoy a loyal following, or they wouldn't still have been around since 1963. Being the first one in a diner is a treat! Especially one that really harkens back to a simpler, more cozy time. The modest room is filled with plush booths all around and a nice long counter, as should be in a classic diner. Everything was neat and clean. I'd suggest some new flooring near the kitchen as it looks like some of the planks are going their own way. The waiter was kind and brought me a menu right away. And good thing, the place started to fill up quickly. The next couple in the door asked if they could sit on the patio, and at first the waiter said they were not doing the patio service this morning since he was all alone. But then he said that they could but asked them to please understand if service was a little slower out there as the main room was going to get busy. They agreed. The menu is large. Not Cheesecake Factory large, but certainly more than enough for all tastes, including a healthy selection of breakfast burritos, huevos rancheros, and the like. I ordered a little bit of everything in a standard American breakfast. I had originally planned to just sit here waiting for my car service to be completed, so the massive order seemed to be the perfect accompaniment. Two eggs, two slices of bacon, a Belgian waffle, and breakfast potatoes. And, of course, a cup of coffee. Everything was really delicious! Seriously! Coffee and all. Every single bite was unique and perfectly prepared. The coffee was awesome. The potatoes are prepared with a little red bell pepper and onion, just like I would have done at home. And the waffle was sublime. If I had one request, I would have preferred real maple syrup. But that's me. I could tell by how the waiter was speaking with a number of customers that these were some of his regulars. If I lived in the area, I'd make this my haunt. I truly recommend Toasted Bun. There's too much here not to get your share of it. And I can't wait to go again and have company to share the experience. (available on Grubhub and DoorDash) Bon Appétit!

    Diners are as familiar as the language we speak and comfortable we eat. Every American love American diners, including me. This might not the best Diner in Glendale, but baby boomers seeking the comfort & nostalgia of their youth. The family owned biz since 1962. Typical retro all-inclusive range of patrons; actors, streetcar motormen, milkmen, policemen, white wings, left wings, businessmen, probably hipster & counter culture - all these and more run elbows at its counter. ( don't worry narcissistic people won't show up. They are too dumb to stalkings and talk others behind the back in their tiny places. Only good vibe patrons here ) Service is slow as retro style. But hey, remember this is West coast. Chill ! My charming breakfast with Mr LA was delightful. We will stand by the right, the true, live, die for the red, white and blue. Happy 4th.

    EL Effe- Spot on delicious! I ordered it without the bun.

    What a gem! This neighborhood diner feels like I'm coming to my grandmother's house. People know each other. They have good conversation. The food is delicious and served withcare. Peter, my waiter, was gracious and kind. This is your neighborhood place!

    Breakfast Sandwich on biscuit
    andrew r.

    Was waiting for an oil chance at the dealership next door so popped over for breakfast. Exactly what you want from a diner. The house made biscuit was great, hash browns were crispy.

    Quiet and chill cafe with outdoor and indoor seating available. Toasted Bun gives the "old school retro diner" vibes, which is great. Menu offers a lot of variety breakfast/brunch, lunch, and dinner items. We came here on a Sunday morning and there was plenty of seating available. Both the service and food were good. Your choice of eggs style, hash browns or breakfast potatoes, or fruit when ordering the breakfast combos. Food arrived 15 minutes after ordering, which was pretty fast considering we ordered 7 different items.

    Morning!

    Great place to catch breakfast or lunch while your waiting 5 HOURS to get a oil change at Star Ford. Basic Cafe fare. A little bonus: Star Ford will give you a $2 Toasted Bun coupon to use for your meal purchase. I guess that makes the 5 hour wait WAY worthwhile! Thanks Star!

    French Toast Combo - excellent!
    Hannah S.

    Retro diner style spot with bottomless coffee and delicious French toast! Came in looking for a hot breakfast whilst waiting on car maintenance down the street and I am so glad I did!! My food was fantastic as well as the service and ambiance! Very chill and cozy - great vibes! I got coffee and a French toast combo (my usual at diners). Portions are huge, over easy eggs were perfectly cooked, hash browns lightly toasted and tasty, and the French toast was flawless!! Very soft and creamy on the inside and lightly crisp on the outside - perfection! Coffee is good too. Menu is extensive and prices are wonderful! My server was attentive and friendly. The other patrons were chatting and laughing with some local cops and the server - overall just a cozy neighborhood vibe here - it was great! The location is convenient too - right in the middle of a bunch of car dealerships. Lots of street parking available and there's also a private lot in back I think. Now that the Alhambra Mazda closed down, I'll be over here anytime for maintenance and I'll definitely be eating here again!

    Lipstick on the rim

    There is an older waitress who seems to hate her job. They don't wash their dishes thoroughly (my water glass had lipstick on the rim and my coffee mug had old dried-up coffee stains). Simple requests like asking for Tabasco went unfulfilled and we had to go inside to pay our bill because they weren't attentive to those sitting out in the patio.

    Corn pancakes and my preferred topping, the Mixed Fruit yogurt parfait.

    Ask the Community - Toasted Bun

    Are bottomless mimosas still offered during the week or is it only weekends?

    Weekends only, during the brunch menu hours 9am-2pm

    I was told they offer bottomless mimosas does anyone know if this is true and how much of it is?

    They do offer it. $22 for a 90 min limit.

    On the Yelp homepage it says, "vegan options". What are the vegan options here?

    We have a few different options from vegan chilaquiles, to a soyrizo vegan breakfast burrito, a vegan scramble and avocado toast

    Is this place still around?

    Yes, we just went in. They had a change of ownership and it's much better now.

    I almost walked in to this place until I saw the gross ripped seats ... when will these be fixed ? Does the owner care?

    They don't make you eat off the seats anymore. The food is good.

Now, our waiter Caroll was probably of the hardest workers I've ever had the pleasure of being served by, and it's almost comedic that I couldn't leave my drink empty for longer for a few seconds before it was infact, topped up. Bottomless drinks really do exist here. On top of that, caroll suggested strawberry lemonade and passion fruit ice tea in lieu of my normal Arnold Palmer that's my go to on account of being out of lemonade. The resulting concoction I've lovingly dubbed: The Susie Summers. Official ratios still being tweaked but: 40% Strawberry lemonade 60% Passion Fruit Iced Tea Garnish with a lemon wedge and sprig of mint. While I had the Black Cow burger it wasn't of paricular note, it was pleasant BUT I did order it medium well, out of an abundance of caution for a new place. I'm very confident that trying it medium rare will likely improve the beef flavor. Overall a tasty burger regardless. However, the chicken pot pie my partner ordered was plated beautifully and had a wonderful puff pastry atop a very savory and delightfully seasoned filling. I definitely think it was a show stopper. I even asked Caroll to surprise me with a random dessert, and let me tell you, the Salted Caramel Apple Cheesecake is what dreams are made of. Very nicely sweet with a filling to knock your socks off. Oh the joys of new sights and smells. Cheers!

The flavor was ok, but nothing to write home about. And the shrimp were very small - what my husband and I call "bait" shrimp. Not the large shrimp you usually get at a nice restaurant. Since i was still hungry, I ordered a cobbler. It was fine, but not great. Texture was a bit strange - not traditional. Probably won't come back. The food is just not that interesting. It's like the kind of food you'd eat at a Midwestern buffet restaurant.

We watched him a few different times throughout our time there, to see how he was with the other tables. We came to the conclusion that he looked like a fish out of water. Maybe he was overwhelmed even though the restaurant was a little more than half full last night at 5:30. Then he brought us our check while we were still eating! I told him I wanted to order dessert. Again, he had no clue what he was doing. I suggest the management take a look at this review and address this issue with him. Our experiences here have always been great, been coming for years.
