We had been wanting to try this place out for a while and finally went this weekend.
The staff is really nice! & despite being busy the food came out quick. However there is definitely areas of improvement
1. No ventilation inside, it was extremely hot inside and claustrophobic due to the low ceilings. If AC does not work a few fans would help since the only ventilation is the small entry door.
2. Some prices, a little high for the servings. A cup of OJ is $4 and the cups are small compared to other breakfast restaurants around town. The iced coffee is $5 but itâs watered down. The blueberry pancakes $16 were really good but you have to buy the sides to it (eggs, meat, etc) I failed to check that on the menu so now I know for next time.
I will likely go back to try other stuff and hopefully by then they have proper ventilation and adjust prices to servings. I wouldnât mind paying a little more if more was included. For a family of 4 we spent roughly $90-$95 post taxes.

Was hoping for another bfast place in our area. Found out it's pricey and not great. Nice people though.

I was excited because I heard really good things. Sadly, it's just okay. I got one one of their specialty dishes- Holy Belly Tamales.
Very dry, both the meat and masa.. Too much masa, green chile????, minimal meat.
My daughters got the belly sizzler, flat iron steak needed more flavor.
Service was good.
It was warm and stuffy though.

HolyBelly has a menu full of delicious choices. The tiramisu french toast is sublime. The food is well prepared and served in generous portions. A lovely place for breakfast or lunch.

Brunch Done Right! At Holy Belly, restraint serves flavor well. The chilaquiles arrive with red salsa that sings bright, complex, unapologetically bold. Each tortilla chip maintains its integrity beneath the sauceâs assertive embrace. The eggs Benedict proves equally masterful, yolks achieving that coveted jammy perfection that separates competence from craft.
The dining roomâs botanical wall installations and thoughtfully curated dishware suggest ownership that sweats the details. Service strikes the perfect balance: present without hovering, knowledgeable without pretense. In a town where brunch often means frozen hash browns and powdered hollandaise, Holy Bellyâs commitment to fundamentals feels almost radical.

Great experience here! The food was delicious and the portion sizes were more than generous.. definitely worth it. Service was quick and efficient, and the staff made sure everything came out just right. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, which made the whole experience even better. Overall, a wonderful time. Will definitely be coming back and recommending this place to friends and family!

The Holybelly omelette was a tightly wrapped gift exploding with flavor the second my fork cut into it. It wasnât just the aroma of my three favorite breakfast meats cooked up perfectly inside, but the mushrooms, onions, peppers and jalapeños with just enough cheese to hold it together that got me from the beginning.
Those home potatoes tasted like you just cooked them just for me exactly how I like them: tender with a slight crunch.
I ordered the biscuit and gravy separately to take home and try. Add that to my list of regrets in my life, because I wish I had enough room to have eaten those right away. I got home and tried a small piece of the most buttery, yet perfectly flaky biscuit I have ever eaten with a dab of your gravy that seemed like it was made from all the meat that was in the omelette. I donât know the recipe of how you made it, but I found something that I want to put on everything. Peanut butter and jelly sandwich, add Holybelly gravy. Fresh spring salad with fruit? Add Holybelly gravy. Itâs the best gravy in the 5 cities and probably way beyond.
I was impressed with the richness of all the flavors without any one part being overbearing over the others. I love to eat great food and this felt like a gift. To my belly. I canât wait to be back because now I want to try everything.

Food and service were both decent. However, it's pretty loud in there and difficult to have a conversation. So be aware of that.

The food was great. Some of these other reviews about it being a peaceful environment must have been when the place was empty, because it gets really loud in there and everyone starts yelling and then you start hearing everyone else's conversations. Pricey.
It was so good I forgot to take a photo when it arrived, but trust me, it looked as good as it tasted: divine.

This is the BEST restaurant I've ever been to, I didn't think food this good physically existed until today. The service was amazing, the workers here are amazing people. And the atmosphere, absolutely perfect, it has a gentle cloudy forest vibe because of the color scheme. Overall, I will come back again, I've never been somewhere this good and I will never be somewhere better.

Overpriced! We ordered two breakfast meals which equaled $34.00. But, if you order an omelette, you donât get toast. Thatâs another $4.00. Coffee is $4.50 and a soft drink was $4.50. So my bill was over $51.00 with tax not including a tip. The food was mediocre at best because the food was warm, and my toast ( ordered wheat and they gave me sourdough) took ten minutes after my meal had arrived. I also hate flagging down the waitress for more coffee. Like I said, âoverpriced for what you get.â I wonât be going back.
