Nice, cool place in Gaslamp district in San Diego. Service was good in general, and the menu has a few innovative items, like fried rice Benedicts 😲. My chilaquiles were really good, the tomatillo sauce was extremely (like the one I do at home, LOL), and my wife got the omellete with caramelized inions and bacon, which she said was good, but lacked some green and in the end kind of fell flat. Our friends had the burrito and those Benedicts, he loved the burrito, but she said those Benedict were just weird with the rice, so we'll go with a 4-star rating

Went there twice during our three day stay in San Diego. Tried 5 different meals and all were very delicious and gluten free. The staff was super friendly.

Went to brunch on a Sunday afternoon. My wife had the mashed potato waffle. It was amazing. I went for the spicy chicken sandwich. It was very enjoyable and a perfect size. The Bloody Mar was the perfect dessert. The service was great. We will be going back.

We had breakfast at this restaurant three days in a row during our stay in San Diego, and it was absolutely amazing! They are highly knowledgeable about celiac disease and take great care in preparing gluten-free meals without any cross-contamination. The food was outstanding—the pancakes and waffles were the best we’ve ever had! Every dish was fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. For anyone looking for a safe and delicious gluten-free breakfast, this place is simply perfect! Highly recommended—we can’t wait to come back!

Pro tip: RISE and SHINE so as to not wait in LINE! If you can muster the strength to do so, get there before 9 am; opt for patio seating for even quicker seating. Staff is well groomed and nice enough. We enjoyed the steak and eggs dish with the lime gremolata, which was tasty, well cooked, and came with a choice of sourdough or multi grain toast... We asked for our Belgian Waffle to be extra crispy but it was still quite soft--oh well. In this city, it's very rare that a restaurant will send out a "extra crispy/ well done" anything. OJ is freshly squeezed with little bonus bits of orange seeds floating around in it for proof. Coffee was not bad... Not bad at all! Overall the portions are smaller than some of the other breakfast staples in the downtown area but the prices are comparable. We will be back!

First time here. The place is cute, but for the price, I expected real avocados instead of the weird fake kind in my Sammie sandwich. Our server was sweet, but she was gone for long periods of time. Also, the ketchup bottles should be cleaned between guests, they get pretty gross.

Food was wonderful. Jon, the barista was extremely helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend, especially for breakfast, you certainly won't need lunch after eating here. Thank you to all the staff, you got our mornings off to a great start when we there in March.

The crime brûlée French toast was basically dessert for breakfast! Delicious with an unexpected sugar crust. We also had the American breakfast - classic and good. Service was great. I loved the decor of the restaurant. Serving sizes are pretty big

I was in town for work and my coworker ordered Uber Eats for me. So this review is solely based on food item that I got. I ordered Sweet chili shrimp and grits. WOW! Just WOW! It was sooooooooo good. I ate it probably about 1 hour after it was delivered so it had already gone cold but it still was delicious. I could only imagine how amazing it must be when it's fresh! No wonder there seemed to be a long wait when I passed by the restaurant another day. If I'm back in San Diego, I will definitely go back to this place!

A bit of a wait to get my order taken but the kitchen turned it out quickly. The American Breakfast with eggs, toast, potatoes, and bacon was good. But, I asked for the bacon to be cooked crispy yet it wasn't. Good coffee and fresh OJ. The tap water had an unpleasant egg whites smell. Service was courteous but not quick. Slow to bus dirty tables. Less expensive than breakfast in the nearby hotels but a relatively average experience.

I had sometime to kill before catching my train from San Diego to the SFV. So I came here for breakfast. The restaurant has both outside and inside seating. It was a chilly morning so I opted to sit inside and asked for a table away from the entrance. The manager, Vanessa, was accommodating and I was promptly escorted to my table. There was a pleasant ambiance, a hungry crowd and a small but enticing menu. I knew before hand what I would order, something different and chose the Fried Rice Eggs Benedict accompanied by house potatoes. The dish arrived with the skinniest eggs I have seen in a while and that too, at ambient temperature. There were two eggs, each sitting on a cake of surprisingly bland fried rice. Did they forget to season it? The house potatoes were good. My server, Scott, was friendly, attentive and provided superb customer service. Both he and Vanessa made me feel unhurried, very welcome and comfortable. So, even if the breakfast could have been more flavorful, the warm hospitality at this establishment made up for it and capped a wonderful almost two hours, before it was time to head home.

The food was amazing I loved everything about it!! The ambiance seemed really cool to me it was kinda loud inside but I'm sure it was just me that would say that lol I would totally come back!

Did a quick little weekend trip to Downtown SD, and this is the first spot we tried. We were just walking around and randomly stumbled upon it. Wait was like 20 mins or so on a Saturday morning. Ordered the breakfast co flight, which lets you choose 3 different items. We ended up choosing creme brulee french toast, banana bread pancakes, buttermilk waffles & added chicken to it. Perfect portion for sharing. My favorite was definitely the chicken and waffles then the banana bread pancakes. The creme brulee french toast looked amazing but was just a bit sweet for my taste, probably would pair well with straight black coffee, but i was going with the bloody mary. Totally see myself coming back our next visit, definitely worth it.

So so good! We've been brunchin' pretty hard for the past few days so we've been looking for something of a different variety. Being from Hawai'i, there is always a craving for some eggs and rice for breakfast. Plus, we do have a friend who is gluten free so it's nice to have a an option for him so we can dine together comfortably. The wait for our party of four wasn't long. We were almost seated immediately because most parties were waiting for a table indoors. I will say though, there should be some organization for parties checking in for a table versus those just waiting for them name to be called. We stood around for a few mins waiting because we weren't sure where to line up. After we got seated, we ordered some coffees and some water. The caramel latte was really good, definitely on the sweeter side but with a caramel latte, what else can you expect? I enjoyed it and it still had a distinct coffee flavor that wasn't overpowered by the sweetness. For food, we all ended up getting the fried rice eggs benedict and some sides of the wake n' bake bacon. We decided to also split a churro french toast cause we saw it getting dropped to another table and got tempted. The egg fried rice benedict was delicious! Hollandaise was light and creamy, perfectly balanced, and the right consistency. Not overly tart either! The eggs were poached perfectly also! I had my reservations that the rice was going to be super soggy but it was a good consistency and very flavorful. The bacon was probably one of my favorites! I could definitely taste the rub and it was a nice addition to our meal. The churro french toast was also solid and no syrup was really necessary as the anglaise type of sauce smothered on top was sweet enough. My only regret is that we were too full to finish all of the french toast. Ambiance here is really casual, I'm honestly not sure what it looks like on the inside but if the food is good I could probably care less about the interior. Service was also very speedy and courteous! Definitely a lot of wins in my book! A fantastic brunch spot if you're staying in the area!

From the menu variety to the service to the speed - I am definitely bookmarking Gaslamp Breakfast for the next time I'm in downtown SD. A group of four with luggage, we were accommodated quickly and ordered quite a bit: Chilaquiles Suizos Marvelously put together with queso fresco, tomatillo salsa, cilantro and two poached eggs. Buttermilk Waffles With seasonal fruit - waffles are soft, warm, and crunchy on the edges. You may not even need syrup. Easy to wolf down. Really easy. Meatlovers Omelette This was our consensus All-Star pick. Applewood, smoked bacon, ham, linguisa sausage, and cheddar cheese. They make it so good - can't really explain why, just order this. Careful it comes with more house potatoes. Japanese Spicy Chicken Sandwich Brioche bun, crispy fried chicken thigh, fried egg, sesame, chili oil, togarashi, aioli oil, etc etc I didn't think it was that spicy, but overall it was good. I'm not sure what makes it Japanese necessarily, but that's what made us order it. Wake'n Bloody Mary Super amazing in presentation, flavor combinations, fluid combinations and alcohol balance. Refreshing and stimulating to start your day. There is so much action in this single drink, I might write a review solely on this glass of happiness. The world needs more of this. Can't wait until my next visit here. That's all.

Great brunch food, and good for those with dietary restrictions, such as gluten-free (celiac). The server was friendly, and helpful particularly with answering questions for their menu for gluten-free items. They have a large indoor seating area, with a good atmosphere, lots of throwback music playing in the background. All their waffles are gluten-free, which was great! I tried the orange thyme waffle, and the seasonal vegetable omelet with gluten-free bread and potatoes. I tend to favor savory things for brunch, but the orange thyme waffle was incredible, cooked to perfection, and wonderfully accompanied with the thyme syrup and the whipped mascarpone. I would definitely get this again. The vegetable omelet was fresh. The gluten-free toast was appreciated, but not the best I've had. Overall, good experience here and would return!

Came on a Friday for brunch and was sat down immediately. Decorated for christmas! ONLY street parking or garage pay parking! We had to drive around a few blocks before finding metered parking. No parking lots! Serivce was quick. Overall, not a bad breakfast place! I thought their waffle selection was very unique. Mashed potatoes waffle ($14) - waffle is made from mashed potatoes! - very savory, crispy, not sweet at all California Breakfast Burrito ($18) - basic breakfast burrito, not the best Fried Rice Benedict ($15) - unique concept but wouldn't get again - very oily Freshly squeezed orange juice ($4.50) Cold Brew ($4.50) - orange juice was good! coffee wasn't mediocre

Gaslamp Breakfast Company is a vibe! It is brunch everyday with your favorite freshly squeezed juice or mimosa at the ready. This historic building is showcased with eclectic decor and tables and chairs that gives you the impression that they have been catering to guests for decades. We dined more than once during our stay and felt welcomed by the vaulted ceiling and smiling staff. Over our visits we tried a few different items from the generous and unique menu. They have pancake/french toast/waffle flights that solves the issue of not being able to decide on just one option. The peach French toast was a hit and the banana bread pancakes were absolutely amazing (moist and rich). With plenty of Benedict's to choose from, the fried rice Benedict was a new experience. The chilaquiles was tops too! If breakfast isn't your thing, they have other items for you and plenty of choices for vegetarians. Come and enjoy a dining experience.

I'm so glad I found this cute brunch place! Really enjoyed the food and my overall experience here. I tend to order savory foods for breakfast but I was also really curious about the waffles, so I compromised by ordering the mashed potato waffles. It was sooo good, I was very happy with my decision. I think the portion size was perfect too. I ended up bringing home some leftovers. Of note, as I ate more of the waffle, I realized that it was really salty for me. In terms of logistics, on a Sunday morning (around 10 AM), the wait was about 20 minutes. We had to find street parking but on Sundays, parking is free which made things easier.

Ive been to this restaurant before, but on my last visit, the experience was just okay. I think they were a little overcrowded and I could tell by the level of service and quality of food I received. We were seated at the bar after a short wait, which was fine considering we had no reservation. The space is wonderfully decorated. Service was a bit scattered and the food was just okay--- dry pancakes and subpar omelette.

Very cute restaurant, always passed by it but never got to try until today. Came in Monday at 7:40am and got seated very quickly with no issues. I got a black coffee, gluten free pancake and the fried rice eggs Benedict. Pancake was amazing, I loved the pear and grapefruit. The fried rice Bennie's were okay. The fried rice was a little hard but the potatoes were cooked great. It started getting packed around 8:20am.

I was looking for a cozy place to have a nice breakfast while it was raining and Gaslamp Breakfast Company did not disappoint! (Note: This review is from my visit in January. I am seriously behind in my reviews this year.) I sat by a window and it was really nice to just chill and look out the window. The back part of the restaurant was packed but I was facing away from it near the door, so it felt more private somehow. My server was very attentive and friendly from the get-go, and I felt right at home there. Ordered the Vegan Breakfast Sammie, which I can report was delicious. A bit messy but definitely worth it. Potatoes were really good, too. I made sure to use a bunch of their house-made ketchup and hot sauce, which I'm happy to report were fiiiirrrre. Love the neon sign inside and all the merch they have. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area!!

There was a wait, so I just grabbed an incredibly uncomfortable seat at the bar. The folks working there were attentive and service was great. I ordered the meat lover's omelette. The eggs were well done -- very dry-- but tasted okay thanks to the various meats inside. The fried potatoes were tasty! It was a perfectly "okay" breakfast but the eggs could have been better if they were softer.

This place was busy. We were told the wait would be about 20 mins, which turned out to be more like 10 mins. Good service, great food. I ordered the breakfast burrito. The steak in the burrito was very good. Diffently would come back again. Staff was very nice and prompt.

This was the only place open on Christmas Day for brunch so it had a long wait but it was worth it! We did wait a full 30 minutes but were able to stroll around Gaslamp until then. Vibes inside were super cute and artsy and felt like a cozy little breakfast place. Our server was really nice and got us another hot chocolate since she messed up the size. All the food was so yummy!! So many options to choose from but we got one soyrizo omelette and one meat lovers, both were delicious, and one crème brûlée French toast. Prices were not bad and for decent portions!

My sister and I came here for breakfast on our last day in San Diego, a Monday morning. It was a quick walk from where we were staying at the Pendry. We were seated immediately upon arrival. I ordered the American Breakfast ($14) and subbed a Creme Brûlée French Toast in place of regular toast. My sister ordered the Steak and Eggs ($24) and subbed the Churro French Toast in place of regular toast, and she also subbed veggies in place of potatoes. Both of our eggs were a little under done which was honestly kinda gross. They make their own ketchup and hot sauce that is available for purchase. It did take a while for our food to arrive and I'd like to believe it was being made fresh for us. Note, everyone in your party does need to be present in order for you to be seated. While we were enjoying our breakfast, we did see a few patrons being denied seating as they were still waiting for folks.

Omg, this is my favorite breakfast place so far in San Diego! Customer service was great.. efficient & friendly. Menu items were innovative and the food was mouth watering! I ordered the Fried rice Benedict with the Wake'N Bloody Mary. I don't usually choose eggs Benedict but this one had fried rice in place of the english muffin, It was so delish. Try it, You won't regret it! The bloody mary had coffee bacon and all the basic fixings.. olives, pickle, celery.. Just Yum! We also had the crème brûlée french toast and the Wake Up cocktail. Both were on point with sweet and savory.

My besties and I took a weekend trip to Downtown SD and this local spot was an 8 minute walk from our airbnb. We had a phenomenal time here and our server Jon was absolutely amazing! He was so kind, prompt, and definitely made our experience so wonderful. I got the steak and eggs which were cooked to perfection and I loved every single bite. I also got the Golden State latte which had turmeric and cardamom so it felt like a warm hug first thing in the morning. Jon, if you're reading this I hope you get a raise!! Thank you for everything!

In short: Nice ambiance Great location Decent food Probably won't be back. This place is in a great location and close to my hotel so I figured my boyfriend and I would give it a try. A couple people had said it was good so obviously some people like it, but for me it fell a little flat. Not bad but not great. Mostly on the breakfast potatoes that were not even warm, were hollow like they were not fresh and lacked salt at the very least. My breakfast burrito was pretty good. I didn't taste or see any steak ( that was suppose to be in it) in it but the bacon, cheese and pico gave it flavor plus I asked for my guac on the side and got a tomatillo salsa on the side so those gave it enough flavor. I must say my boyfriends steak was good, tender, juicy and came with Chimichurri on it. He got the steak and eggs. He enjoyed it, the potatoes tasted a lot better soaked in egg yolk and steak juice Don't think I'd return if I was in the area with all the other choices near by, but it filled me up for my trip home since it was a good size!

Good lord in heaven, the Japanese spicy chicken egg sandwich is the best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. It has the perfect amount of heat to enhance and not overpower the flavors. Get this sandwich and enjoy the rest of your day.

Gaslamp Breakfast Company was a solid breakfast experience, im not vegan but there was a few vegan options. The "potato waffle," was very tasty!! ...the generally positive, fun atmosphere and service this a must try. While the Gaslamp Quarter can be hit-or-miss for breakfast, this spot appears to be a reliable choice.

First time visit.. downtown local. Our server was good, the food was good everything going great UNTIL We arrived about 12:20 Monday afternoon... its a cool spot and seemed as though some people may have been done w their shifts at surrounding restaurants and its a meeting spot... well Manager definitely caters to them and turned up the music so loud we couldn't even hear each other. We put in a request to turn it back where it was and NOPE really disappointed and poor server said "weekends we turn it up" ummm it's Monday...I've been in the service industry a long time and manager dropped the ball.

Absolutely incredible breakfast and restaurant with friends or even solo! I've been a huge fan of the owner since he first opened Fig Tree Cafe in Pacific Beach and every spot he has been involved with is truly magical. The flavors and unique menu items that give a twist on common breakfast fare makes enjoyable exploration and it's difficult NOT to steal bites from other friend's meals when you all sample various items. HIGHLY recommend the flights of french toast or waffles to sample some of the latest creations. Service has always been excellent and I adore the decor of the location and happy Cali vibes it exudes!

Enjoyed this restaurant twice during my stay in SD. Food was great. A ton of gluten free options. I enjoyed the GF waffle, s'mores waffle and blueberry waffle. Left full and happy. Restaurant is pretty loud. If you want to talk with out the loud music and ambiance then request sitting outside. We enjoyed both...

While the ambiance was lovely, the staff wasn't. There was no host at the front where the "Wait To Be Seated" sign is located for about 5 minutes, we almost left solely because of that. When she finally came back to the front desk, 2 people cut us and the host did nothing about it. I don't think anyone was paying attention. When we were sat, not a word was said from the host. She placed the menus on our table and walked away before I had even arrived to the table. It was weird. I saw her do this to others as well. Maybe she's not in the talking mood. Food didn't come for about 25 minutes, had no flavor, everything needed salt to bring out the flavor. I would not go back. I would hope your staff would be a little happier! Felt like I was at a DMV almost. Maybe I came on a bad day, but the staff seems out to lunch here. Hope you guys can improve this, maybe tell your host to smile more :) I could feel negative energy from the staff that helped us. I will say, the verde sauce that came with my burrito was amazing. Oh and their ketchup is spicy if you like that

I stopped in Thursday morning for breakfast before I had to head to the airport. I dined solo and sat at the bar. I was promptly greeted by several employees and the bartender gave me a menu and took my drink order. The orange juice is 100% fresh squeezed and I watched them do it as I sat at the bar while waiting for my food. I ordered the banana bread pancakes and a side of turkey bacon. Turkey bacon was good. The pancakes were delicious! I dont think I have ever order specialty pancakes out (normally just plain or chocolate chip). These were so good. I highly recommend stopping in for breakfast if you are looking for great food and service at a reasonable price.

During my San Diego vacation, Gaslamp Breakfast Company became my breakfast haven! This place is a gem that I would frequent if I were a local. Despite a short wait, the experience was absolutely worth it. They have the option to dine indoors or outdoors. I kicked off my meal with their Organic Nitro Cold Brew Coffee, and let me tell you, it was a cold brew dream come true. For my breakfast, I indulged in the Steak and Eggs dish, including perfectly cooked steak, eggs scrambled just how I like them, flavorful house potatoes, and delicious toast with scrumptious jam. The portion sizes were generous, and every bite was a delight to my taste buds. Gaslamp Breakfast Company truly impressed me with their quality food and inviting ambience. If you're seeking a top-tier breakfast spot in the area, I wholeheartedly recommend giving this place a visit.

This place, we waited about 30 minutes for a table during breakfast hours - make sense right? I never heard of this place, but was hoping that this place isn't just all the talk but no walk. Finally when we sat down, we got the cushion chairs in the back corner that were super big, and comfy. the table was spacious, the interior design was so much bigger and prettier than the outside anticipation. the servers are also super nice, the only caviet is one of our dishes - the fried rice did come with hair in it. after telling the manager, or i guess the waiter addressed to the manager, he came back asking what replacement did we want, and my friend told them she wanted the same dish the manager promises this time a brand new dish, does not have a hair in it. i thought my friend was brave enough to have the same dish again after that chaotic first attempt, but it wasn't bad (i ended up trying some). they also did comp a coffee cake as a sorry, which was thoughtful, and the coffee cake is super cream cheesey, as in if you like cheesecake, then you will like this. goes well with your bottomless coffee. the fried chicken sandwich wasn't bad, and the California burrito was delicious as well. all around 10/10

A San Diego Gaslamp favorite! This is our second visit and it was even better than the first. Everything we ordered was delicious! We ordered the breakfast burrito and breakfast company flight with the crème brûlée French toast, mashed potato waffle, and buttermilk waffle with fried chicken. The flight is fun because you can pick from the waffles, pancakes, and French toast options so it gives you the freedom to try a variety of items. Trust me when I tell you that the mashed potato waffle is one of the best items I've eaten in a while! This savory waffle is so flavorful. Loved the cheese sauce, sausage, and green onions mix on top. My favorite out of the 3 I chose and don't get me wrong, the crème brûlée French toast and buttermilk waffle w/fried chicken were so so good. Can't go wrong with any of them really. The restaurant itself is decently sized, great decor, and fun ambiance. They were great at accommodating my son's stroller. Service was really great despite being a noon visit. I can't wait to go back!

We were in town for comic con and this was the closest breakfast spot not immediately on F St. so it was a little quieter than the other spots but still quite busy given all the people. We waited about 10 minutes for a spot at 9am on a Thursday, which wasn't terrible. Our server was the sweetest. She was definitely slammed with tables but still managed to check on us multiple times and chit chatted about the convention and whatnot. The food definitely hit the spot. The sandwich I got wasn't the vegan one. It was the brioche one. Absolutely delicious, but just a little too small to be satisfying/filling. My wife got the vegan Benedict which had some really good flavor to it and whatever vegan poached eggs are made of was pretty tasty. The beer was nice and cold. The potatoes were so-so, the lowlight of the meal.

Our server was the only positive thing I can say about the Gaslamp breakfast company. I know food is expensive now and especially in the Gaslamp but $18 for a breakfast burrito and $17 for a breakfast sandwich is excessive. I wouldn't have minded the price if there was actually something of substance in the sandwich. The sandwich was basically 2 THICK slices of bread with a guacamole spread thinly spread on one slice and 2 pieces of bacon with an egg. I'm told the burrito was tasteless and any corner taco shop offers up tastier burritos. All breakfasts are served with home potatoes which were dry and again flavorless.

Went for Sunday brunch and left satisfied! There was a short line but we got lucky and didn't have to wait. The food is amazing and reasonably priced. I got the multigrain pancakes with mascarpone and fruit. My bf had the veggie omelet. We would order these again. The location is also perfect in the heart of Gaslamp.

We were so excited to eat here. We put our name down to eat and they gave us a 40 min wait and we waited patiently. A hour and 20 minutes later they still had us waiting and we had kids with us so they were being fussy. It was very inconvenient and their wait time is not accurate. Such a waste of time.

We were on a waitlist to be seated. It was a busy morning for them. A quick walk around the block & window shopping at the gift shops definitely killed time. Once we were seated our orders were taken quite quickly! Our server was attentive & kind. They played music us kiddos jammed to in the early 2000's to maybe 2007/8? Loved it. Brought good memories. The food was amazing. My steak was cooked at a medium well & it was not like chewing tires! The eggs were yummy! The yolk was a velvety dark orange... I haven't seen a yolk like that when purchasing at a grocery store. It was beautiful. The crème brûlée French toast added a nice touch of sweetness.

ILLYA IS AWESOME! She is attentive and infectious with such a great personality, which made our breakfast experience great. The foods are fantastic here! I had the steak and eggs and that was amazing. First, I didn't know they deep fried the potatoes and they were delicious. The chimichurri sauce was excellent and the steak was cooked perfectly. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED this place!

Food was good but service wasn't the greatest. We were there on the weekend so we assumed it was going to be busy but we didn't expect was for once our food brought out we would never see the server again until we were ready for the check. Will probably give it another go. Maybe it was just an off day.

Very good vegan breakfast in a very meaty environment. I was skeptical about the tomato jam, but it really made the sandwich!

Delicious food, great atmosphere, awesome server (Felipe). I had the Brioche Breakfast Sammie and it was delicious and a big serving. Mexican Mocha was also good. Would highly recommended

Friendly staff, fast service great location. I found the food lacked flavor. Potions were good, coffee was good. I prefer my food with a bit more flavor ‍
