Very cute standard brunch place. If you can stand the long wait times the food is certainly delicious.
This place is so amazing. The food was fresh. It was crunchy. It was tasty check! The customer service is great. The people that took care of us and the cashier register were nice. They asked if they were first time if we needed help with the menu. I think they also have like some drinks that I was too sure about the young server that gave me a taste of one of their drinks just to like taste test and it worked out. I ended up getting one of their special drinks at the end there I wanna say for the most part I dislike going to restrooms in restaurants because they’re dirty due to people making them dirty or keeping them dirty but at this location, everything was very clean and yeah, we were truly satisfied. We were so happy super happy. I highly recommend if you are near the Alhambra area. This is a nice place to go for breakfast for brunch and I know they do close early so you might wanna check their social media website to see more information in regards to the days and times that they are opening at the time that they close
Nice place but foods are greasy. I have ordered crab cake Benedict. Only filler and imitation crab meat $22.95 deep fried French toast tasted good but also greasy.
Need to pay first
Such a yummy delight! Whether it's early breakfast or a late brunch, if you're craving delicious breakfast food, you can't go wrong with Popping Yolk Cafe.
The fresh orange juice is as fresh as it get without any excess like sugar or additive, and it has just a little bit of pulp.
We had the BBQ Pulled Pork Benedict with crispy potato cubes and salad, and while the salad was not too bad, the Benedict and potato were great. Both made a savory combo that had a lot of flavor and texture. The BBQ sauce was tangy and sweet, the pulled pork was soft, and the Hollandaise sauce wasn't overpowering.
The Ube pancake was the real star though. My friend never had ube before and she was so amazed and how good it was. I love ube so this was right up in my alley. Every bite was so enjoyable and the pancake never felt too heavy and was fluffier than I thought. It was such treat to eat this!
Food was great. However, I gave the place 3 stars for a couple reasons
1) the ordering system isn't convenient-you put your name on the waiting list, then you order off the board, and you have to find you own dining table to sit at
2) the food didn't come out all at once which is annoying
3) we sat in the patio and there were SOOO MANY FRUIT FLIES. I'm not exaggerating. It made eating extremely unpleasant and uncomfortable. There's no way the restaurant doesn't know about this issue.
4) there's really no service at this restaurant other than just delivering your food to the table.
This place was really good but it was too busy when I went. But I still enjoyed the food. It was a Teriyaki Burger w an egg in it & it was awesome. Also had a summer tour salad & it was just as good as the burger. I'm deff going back, especially for the cocktails
Excellent Service, Delicious food and drinks. But those rice flour pancakes are the best!! 😋

It was our first time dining at the restaurant. We didn't wait long to be seated. As soon as we were called in, at the counter, our orders were taken before being seated. This way, we didn't have to wait fir someone to take our orders. The food we ordered was served hot, appetizing, and delicious. My eldest had the smoked salmon croissant sandwich with sides of fresh salad and country fried breakfast potatoes. I had the California Omelet with the same sides as my eldest's. We shared the honey comb crepe. We each had our own choice of warm tea. It was a great experience to dine here. We will come back soon.

If you are staying nearby, you should definitely come and have breakfast one morning. Price/Taste/Service are all equivalent to each other. It is also suitable for Turkish taste, we did not feel unfamiliar.
