14 Best Breakfast Restaurants near Penn Hills

“Food was PHENOMENAL. The three ladies running the restaurant this morning were a well oiled machine.
We had French toast, homefries and the Big Ben - everything was just amazing. In between every bite we kept making comments about how good the food was. We asked the woman cooking to come over and complimented her - I asked her if she needed any more grandchildren because I’d like to be adopted, put a big smile on her face! Everyone was so kind, and we loved the 50’s diner feel.

We will absolutely be back!!“

“I usually love eating here and understand that it gets very busy. However, they do not run reservations well. I checked in 30 minutes after making my reservation. My quoted time was 40 to 55 minutes. We waited an additional 30 to be told that I wasn't checked in properly. Waited a total of an hour and 20 minutes and still was not seated.“

“My family went for lunch on Saturday, the place was absolutely packed! And for good reason, the food was absolutely delicious! And the service we received from our waiter was perfect. Elijah was very attentive and always happy to meet my toddlers many requests 😅 Also would like to add that even though they were super busy, it took them less than 10 minutes to get us seated and the food didn’t take long to come out at all. All the food was hot and fresh, even the strawberries were freshly cut. We will definitely be spending many more breakfast and lunch dates here!“

“Ambience, menu, service and, of course, the eclectic decor. What a delicious, fun experience in Lawrenceville. Will now be our go to brunch restaurant!“

“This was probably my fourth time going to the restaurant and my waitress. Victoria was phenomenal. I still remember my first time and I forget the waitress’s name but she also was phenomenal. Very complementary just like Victoria so it makes the experience very much more personable. The food and the drinks were great. I definitely enjoy the atmosphere. It reminds me of going to a friend’s house for a meal. If you’d like a cozy intimate place I recommend here. You will be in close proximity to other patrons, however that doesn’t distract or deter from the experience, especially if you’re someone who again likes an intimate experience. I ordered the pistachio pancakes. They were amazing. If you have a nut allergen, obviously you can’t get them but if you don’t, it taste amazing. I also had an espresso martini that was super tasty and the hot chocolate is also great. I tried a new item which is the fried Elote balls which kind of reminds me of hush puppies but with a little spicy cake it has the whole corn kernel in it so I’m definitely a fan of those and I recommend trying them“

“We wanted to try something new and wow this place was amazing. What a great choice! Once I saw cevappi (delicious Balkan Sausage) in the menu, I stopped looking. You can’t get it anywhere around here. That plus the amazing home fries that were super crispy and delicious. My husband loved his chicken schwarma which was super flavorful. I loved all the sauces in it too. You must come check it out. Everyone was really friendly and wanted to make sure you were happy which is rare anymore.“
