Just finished breakfast and all I can say is wow!From the service and attention to the deliciousness of the food. This is a must for sure!We were worried we wouldn't find something for the kids after scanning the menu and the waiter was quick to give us a ton of options, all of which the kids devoured. Would definitely recommend, especially since we didn't have to wait for a table of 7 mid-morning on a Saturday.

As a Filipino and Kapampangan, I feel it is my cultural duty to make it clear that the Sisig Burrito DOES NOT have traditional Sisig in it (neither Aling Lucing's version nor Sisig Manila for those who know the difference). It is more accurate to call it a Pork Belly Burrito instead of a SISIG Burrito. Needless to say, I was disappointed after my first bite. With that being said, the burrito itself was delicious - pork belly with the calamansi mayo tasted great - hence the 4-star instead of a 3-star rating. Other than that, the service was good. My party of five adults with a baby and two dogs were seated out on the patio after a 30-minute wait on the weekend. They accommodated our request to sit at the bigger table. If you are a Filipino or are familiar with Filipino food, temper your expectations for the Sisig Burrito. You have been warned!

This was the smallest French Toast portion I have ever had. Even smaller than normal white bread size!I was done eating in 3 minutes !If you are going to charge me for an experience, at least don't make think I was just ripped off.

Stopped by Toast for a quick breakfast while in town. Our wait for 2 on a Saturday morning was only about 15 minutes for a seat inside. Our waiters Mitch and James were very attentive from the moment we sat down. James was in training and did great. Mitch talked us through some recommendations, and was very upbeat and friendly and his suggestions were spot on. My husband enjoyed his Pork Belly bowl, but did have a few pieces of pork that he felt were slightly over cooked, but tasty nonetheless. My Churro French toast was good but pretty sweet. I wasn't a fan of the orange whipped cream, but that's just a personal preference due to the citrus. My latte was a good size and not too sweet. Michele took care of us when Mitch and James took a break and she was also extremely nice and attentive even though you could tell she was hustling and busy. Overall very happy with our food and the service was top notch! Thank you Toast crew.
The wait was about an hour on a Sunday, and we got a spot on the outside, which is right by the parking lot. Cars/truck/people would be driving or walking right by us all the time so I'd say outdoor seating isn't optimal.The experience was extremely delightful thanks to Jess, our server, who was attentive and didn't forget those sitting outside and we got water and ordered food almost right at the moment we sat down. (Note that we had been waiting for an hour so we perused the menu so that facilitated the process.)We order chicken and waffle and ube french toast. Food was served in about 10 minutes so that definitely worth extra credits for those waiting for over an hour for a brunch. The chicken was juicy and full of flavor; no over-fried bits that dried out. Waffle was also cooked just right--it's not the thick/dried waffle nor the thin/airy type. Its Belgian type of thickness but not Belgian buttery waffle. It worked well with the chicken. The butter that came with the waffle was a bit.. interesting (it didn't taste like butter and it didn't melt on hot food....). Maple syrup cured all evil. Ube french toast was good, but nothing spectacular. We did enjoy the blueberry mango fruit pulp or syrup that dominate the dish instead of the ube, as it was very subtle. I felt they coated the french toast in pancake/waffle batter but not egg/milk mixture. It did accompanied well with the chicken and waffle so it's good trying once. Burrito looked good and we will try the Tustin location next time.

I found this while online looking up brunch places! It apparently made yelps top 100 breakfast places in the top 10 back in 2022 and has EPIC reviews and I'm so glad we stopped by. The burrito was MASSIVE! Def worth the cost, my wife and I had ordered 2 but saw how big it was at another table and we decided to share one and let me tell you that we were stuffed with only half! Our server was great , she was able answer all of my question and even gave me clarity on the delicious purple stuff in my French toast hahaha. She also did an AMAZING job at accommodating for us and our stroller. The overall atmosphere was very calm yet alive which i loved. Def coming again on my next trip to California.

Came here because of all the great reviews! Menu wasn't as big as I expected but everything looked delicious and my chilaquiles was amazing! My strawberry popsicle drink was cool looking but tasted flat and didn't have the strong alcohol or strawberry flavor. The mimosa flights were good and sangria was delicious! Everyone enjoyed their food and service was great!

"Toast" was brunch on a whim, and it was whim-tastic. All punny comments aside, it was the best meal of the OC weekend from the reasonable prices, attentive service to the seriously delicious and creative Asian spin on typical brunch items. We never stepped foot inside the restaurant due to being sat outside so couldn't speak to the ambience but who doesn't love SoCal's sunny weather? The food for 4 was sufficient:1. Thai Chile Chilaquiles - that tang of pickled onions combined with the uber flavorful pulled pork covered with a sunny egg... mouthwatering2. Ube French toast - you. Must. Get. They don't skimp on that cream nested atop that brioche French toast. Share it, if you want...3. Blackened chicken sandwich - surprisingly good with the Gouda, sauce. Not at all dry. Would probably try a different dish (just to taste something different) if it was up to me next time but a decent pick.4. Bell pepper and Kale Quiche - why is it so good?? You'll just have to taste it to find out yourself. Future food envy wants: sisig burrito, mole burger, chocolate chip cookie dough short stack. Plenty of parking out front. And a line started forming on the weekend but we got in decently fast. Next time OC...next time.

Came here for brunch. Son and I ordered the avo toast, sans egg for me. My son enjoyed it. I think reviewers were right to say the avo toast is just like avo toast here. I ordered the lemonade which was good. Satisfied with the food and service. Parking was easy, but be prepared for 40 minute wait on the weekend. We walked over to the bike store to check it out. If you're not in a hurry it's a nice, enjoyable meal.
