The Toasted Yolk Cafe

My server Erica took no time to get us seated, was on point with the timing to take orders for drinks and food and continued to give great service with a smile for our whole duration. Bro the food was smacking. Bro shout out Raul. My food tasted like my momma made it. I had tears of joy with every bite. I will never forget the taste of happiness with every bite. 10/10 would recommend.

This is the second (and last) The Toasted Yolk Cafe that we’ve eaten at. The first experience (Pearl, MS) left little to be desired as our food was either cold or poorly prepared. We were hopeful this experience would be different since this restaurant has such high reviews, but those hopes were destroyed. Like last time, the hash brown casserole was cold and very black peppery. I was prepared not to like it due to the overwhelming black pepper flavor, but I was disappointed when it came out completely cold. However, my disappointment with the hash brown casserole was nothing compared to the hollandaise sauce on my eggs benedict that was broken and curdled. I did not eat anything on my plate other than the first bite of hash brown casserole. My daughter ordered the kids pancakes, but they were gummy and tasted very strongly of artificial vanilla, so we ordered some toast for her to eat instead. My husband got the brisket tacos and hash brown casserole. His hash brown casserole was also cold, so much so that the queso on top was solidifying. The brisket tacos had way more bacon in them than brisket, including several pieces of undercooked fat. One positive thing stayed consistent, the toast was good.

We got there around 9:30 on Sunday. It wasn't busy. We had seven people and got seated fast. The only issue was the booth was a little small (we're a tall family), but they moved two tables together, and it was perfect. Our waitress was super nice and patient. Everything was fresh and tasty! The pancakes were SO GOOD! Overall, 10/10, keep it up!

This is my new breakfast spot! My photos did not do justice everything on this menu is exceptionally great. I’ve been multiple times. Service is always excellent. Very decent timeframe on ordering and receiving your food. All waiters are exceptionally polite and helpful. Praying for more of these to pop up in the city with the exact same type of service.

Aria was a great server. Very professional and accommodating. The food was delish. I had The Alaskan Eggs Benedict with Hollandaise on the side. 🔥🔥🔥🔥. The pancakes were fluffy and grits were creamy. We will most definitely visit again.

This was my first time at this establishment. Very welcoming atmosphere, very friendly waitress and greeter (hostess), and overall the food was good. The hostess came and told me that the cook is remaking my waffles because the waffles did not come out right. I appreciated that because it showed me that they did not want to provide horrible food to a customer. I did enjoy the waffle when it got to my table (no picture). Great experience overall.

I had an amazing experience at The Toasted Yolk, and a huge part of that was thanks to our server, TATYANA. She’s new, but you would never know it—she handled herself like a true professional. She took the time to repeat my order back to me (which honestly doesn’t happen enough), and everything came out exactly right. The food arrived in a timely manner, the coffee stayed hot, the French toast was perfect, the bacon was crispy just the way I like it, and the hash brown casserole was absolutely to die for. What really stood out was her timing. Even with a full section and plenty of tables, she checked in at all the right moments without ever feeling rushed or absent. Attentive, friendly, and on point the entire visit. If you’re coming to The Toasted Yolk, ask for Tatyana. She’s awesome and made the experience truly memorable

The service was outstanding. Necy was very attentive and friendly. If you want a high quality breakfast with great food and outstanding service this is the place to go. Go early or you may have a wait. We live very close and a very nice option. 5 star. More food than 2 people can eat. We go about once a week on Saturday or Sunday. The one word I can think of is outstanding!

We had a large party of 11 and they were able to accommodate us in a timely manner. Food was excellent and came in very quickly. Our server was friendly and took our order accurately. She also kept drinks refilled in a timely manner.

This is a great place for breakfast/ lunch/ brunch. Great location in Germantown. We put our name on the waitlist before heading out and were seated right away on a Sunday after church. All the folks there were super friendly and we got our food without having to wait a ling time. The menu is diverse with plenty of options regardless if you're thinking breakfast or lunch . They also have a full bar with some great specialty drinks. The big hit today were fresh warm donuts with dipping sauce. There was a blueberry donut with fresh blueberry dipping sauce and a cinimon dusted donut and caramel dipping sauce. They were both outstanding. We also had a Rueben , and also a couple breakfast plates with eggs, sausage, bacon, pancake, hash brown casserole. We were stuffed. The decor is nice, plenty of parking in the shopping center , clean bathrooms. This place checks all the boxes

First time here with some friends and absolutely knocked it out of the park. I had the 2 egg breakfast and it was cooked perfectly. Service was on point - great staff here. I've added this place to my list the next time I'm in town - give them a try!!!

Light, bright, airy, great music VERY Yummy food with generous portions Amazing friendly staff- from hostess, wait staff, and food server Plenty of parking Open before 11am on a Sunday! Use Yelp to check in!!!

The ambiance is nice, but service, food and coffee didn't impress me at all. We did come for Easter breakfast, so maybe that's why but still I wasn't impressed. We came early on a Sunday, and we were seated immediately. The restaurant is colorful and gives a good breakfast vibe. Our waitress took forever to come to our table, and we waited on a Diet Coke for 40 minutes because the machine was down...even though we saw the bar using fountain drinks. I got an iced coffee...nothing special it was just ok. For food, the menu was huge so there were lots of options to pick from. I got the avocado toast, which came with an egg. I wanted the egg hard boiled, but it came out fried...? The avocado toast was one slice of toast and it was very cold. The waitress also only checked on us once to give us the check, so I couldn't have even told her that the egg was wrong. Not a good place to start your morning in my opinion.

I really enjoyed the shrimp and grits. It was spicy and flavorful. The service was exceptional like always !!

It's a great day for brunch! My son and I were estate sale shopping today. We stop in . No like no wait! YAY!! The server was acknowledgeable and nice. Great tea service .

Went to breakfast with my friends Monday morning. We had a great time of fellowship and feeding our bellies. I had the two eggs with cake. The dish came with one large buttermilk pancake with butter and sugar-free syrup, an order of grits, two eggs, that were sunny side up and two pieces of turkey sausage. I also ordered a cup of coffee. The coffee is okay. I am very picky when it comes to coffee. The mugs are really nice. I had to return the grits since they were very runny. The wonderful server Aisha, brought me the hash brown casserole since my grits were not very good. The casserole was very tasty. The decor has a Memphis them with landmarks of Memphis like Elvis as an egg. It is a cute mural near the restrooms. I was able to take 1/2 of my food home for more yummy treats later. I will return because those pancakes were so fluffy.

My wife and I had a pretty rough morning after our 18 year old dog had just died. So, after leaving our veterinarian's office feeling hungry and saddened, per her suggestion, we settled on a late brunch here. This was my first time eating here, but my wife had visited here several times previously. We were cheerfully greeted and seated almost immediately. The menu had many, many different and delicious choices. In fact, I was really impressed that they even offered steel cut oats! I settled on the avocado toast, with poached eggs and cheese grits. Given how famished I was from missing my breakfast, I also ordered the vegetable scramble with the hash-brown casserole and biscuit. My wife opted for the two eggs and a cake, consisting of over-medium eggs, crispy bacon, hash-brown casserole, and French toast. I was pleased that I could order cold brew coffee here. I liked it so much that I quaffed two glasses of their delicious and robust brew. We were ably waited-on by Ms Taylor and Ms Spyce. They were both gracious, informative, friendly, and very attentive. I'd definitely ask to be seated again within their section! There were just two relatively minor flaws with what I ate. I found that the poached eggs on my avocado toast were slightly undercooked, but I readily devoured them anyway. I also didn't completely love the Velveeta-like cheese sauce that was on top of my vegetable scramble. But, again, I gladly ate it. I thoroughly enjoyed the cheese grits as well as all other aspects of my meals. Food therapy was what I definitely needed. My wife really liked her meal, and especially the bacon. So much so, that I'll have to wait until next time we visit before I get to sample any! The atmosphere was relaxed and leisurely. It was just what we needed after our tearful and stressful morning. I really liked this place, plan on returning again, and highly recommend it. I only wish that they had a customer loyalty program. I'd award this establishment a solid four-and-a-half stars, rounded up to five stars.

Excellent food . Excellent service . My expectations are to eat this well every day. And ai say, with today's technology and mass surveillance , why not ? The more professionals with PHD watching, the better our lives should be. The more the merrier . The more surveillance , the more merrier . Junkyard fries Patty Melt Cup of Chilli

I came here for breakfast for the first time. Shanice was my server. She was very attentive and helpful. She was knowledgeable and answered all of our menu questions. When the kids meals came out, I thought it was a mistake because the pancakes were so big. When the adult meals came out the pancakes were even bigger! But that wasn't the best part. Usually pancakes are not hot and fresh by the time they arrive at your table. The kitchen staff was on it at this restaurant. Everything ordered was hot and fresh when it arrived. I was so impressed. They also have a large selection of morning cocktails. The pancakes were very good. They were light and fluffy. The restaurant was clean and well decorated. I can't wait to try this again.

This location is spacious and colorful. The staff was swift, knowledgeable, and very helpful during our time here. The food was large and the drinks were drinking! The double decker omelette had so much flavor and meat with spice from the jalapeños. The cowboy scramble was so massive but it didn't skip out on flavor. Make sure you try the Jackie's morning Rita and the Bellini both are FIRE! Also ask for Niecy she's the best.

Can I just start off by saying that our server was incredibly awful! She didn't have a welcoming demeanor at all. I was really taken aback by her style of communication. She asked my fiancé and I to move down a table because they had another group coming in. We were halfway done with our food by the time she asked. The right thing would have been for her to just wait until we were done. Half of the time she was nowhere to be found and when she did come by she had such a disgusting attitude. The food was great. I had the chicken and waffles with the hash brown casserole. The chicken was seasoned to perfection. The waffle was pretty sweet but paired well with the chicken. I really enjoyed the hash brown casserole after adding a little salt to it. My coffee was awesome too! Overall, I'd probably not go back because the service was seriously that bad!!! I've tried calling the store a few times to speak to the manager but to no avail. I hope in the future she can remember that she was the one who decided to work there.

We came right after church. It didn't wait long to be seated but the kitchen took much longer. After waiting about it 30 minutes for food, it finally came and we had no silverware. We visit here regularly just take your patience. The food is always good. I really like their hashbrown casserole. The omelette are huge!

Made my first and last visit today. Food - just fine, pretty good! Service - smellier than a rotten egg. We walked in the front door. There was no sign, saying whether we are to see ourselves or wait for a hostess or anything else. After a few minutes. I asked the bartender about it. She pointed at the hostess who walked towards me and said "yes", very curtly. No silverware was given to us. I approached the hostess stand who advised "we are out". Ridiculous. There were two teenage boys approaching every table in the place trying to sell candy bars. Nice you all allow outside solicitors to bother your paying customers as well. Terrible , won't be back.

Order #R19282 - I tried to cancel my carryout and was told to go on the app, they were rude and not helpful. I'm still out of $65 and no food. I want my money back!! First time visiting a toasted yolk restaurant and it was one of the worst experiences ever. I went to the one in Germantown, TN. We were told the wait would be 30 minutes. After 60 minutes we ended up ordering carryout because we had an appointment to go to and couldnt wait any longer. Waited almost 40 minutes for the carryout and when I asked to cancel the carryout order the women at the bar area were very rude and told me to cancel on the app. They said couldn't help me and to figure it out. Rolled their eyes and acted annoyed. Then I tried to call the restaurants # and it said "mailbox full". This is unbelievable

Our breakfast was great and the server Elizabeth H did a wonderful job. The only reason for not giving it a 5 star was that it was SO LOUD! Yes, it was busy, but we couldn't carry on a conversation without yelling at each other. Management should invest in ways to eliminate this issue.

I've been to this location twice with poor results both times. The past time, last Friday, was truly awful. The hostess was curt. The service was slow. The food was slow. Both orders were wrong. My husband accepted his. I asked for the side I had ordered FOUR times before it arrived. I never got the soda I ordered. My husband wasn't offered another drink when he finished his, and we both ran out of water. The menu is limited, the restaurant is cold and sterile (open, cafeteria-like seating), and the prices are high. Overall, this last miss sealed the deal for me and I won't be back, which is sad given the restaurant's proximity to our house and our desire to support local businesses.

Clean friendly staff. Fast service and will tell you what they like and don't like. Great drinks and relaxed atmosphere.

Typically when I go to breakfast/brunch cafes, the portions are so small that I have to order multiple dishes in order to be satisfied. Here at Toasted Yolk, the portions are HUGE and I love it! They offer some classic breakfast dishes, some more southern-inspired dishes, and also have lunch options. I was intrigued by the blueberry donuts as a starter and their extensive brunch drink menu! If you want to try multiple lunch items, they have a pick 2 option for salads, sandwiches and soups. The vibe is pretty casual, although there are some cute murals and a nice outdoor patio. It seems like this would be a great place for families or maybe a hungover brunch.

The shrimp & grits was truly one of the best things I've ever had the pleasure of eating! Service was quick and good. The area feels safe and Germantown is a great option to stay in the Memphis area.

I have been here twice and every time its been better than the first time. I get the brisket taco and loved it!!! The Jackie's Morning Rita was just the right thing to finish off my meal.

Food is awesome! Service is great Ambiance is typical for a busy breakfast/brunch venue

Solid 4.5 Service was great! We sat at the bar & the bartenders were happy to give us suggestions on drinks & apps. I loved my fried Arnold 5/5 the gravy was great and that chicken tender was well seasoned with a hint of spice The shrimp and grits were also a hit! My sister could not stop eating it! I tasted the grits and they were so creamy and good. Drinks were also excellent. Pro tip! Half off mimosas on FriYays! We'll be back

Wonderful and tasteful food and service. Decor was nice and bright and screamed, Brunch! Only 2 restroom stalls and looots on the menu to choose from. Enjoy!

Service is great my server is absolutely amazing came up to us girls with the best vibes! Food looks tasty !

My husband and I come here very often. I always get the avocado toast with scrambled eggs while my husband likes to try something new every time. We also get a pancake to share. We've never had bad service and have had several different servers. We brought my mom and stepdad here today since they're in town and they loved it, too. I really want to try some of the breakfast cocktails when I'm not pregnant! Highly recommend this spot- pro tip is to join the waitlist on Yelp so you have less of a wait when you arrive. We will keep cooking every couple of weeks!

I've been meaning to try this place since they opened and I finally got to go! I went with a friend at 1030 on a Sunday and easily got a table for two. They were quite busy right after we sat though, so I would maybe get in line, online before coming, or come earlier if you have a bigger party. To start we both ordered the Cappuccino Coolers. Which was such a good choice. How could you go wrong with an Irish cream drink? Highly recommend! It was mixed very well, it was tasty, AND I got my caffeine! I'm not gonna lie there were several things on the menu I wanted to try, but our witness did mention the Arnolds were the most popular on the menu. So because it was our first visit we did just that. My friend ordered the West Coast Arnold and I ordered the Alaskan Arnold and we each took one of the others to try. You got two little poached eggs, and some hashbrowns or grits as your side. I went with the hashbrowns. Out of the two Arnolds we got I really enjoyed the Alaskan one. the salmon was delicious on top and the hashbrowns were pretty good as well. Soft but also had a little crisp to it. Parking was pretty easy too. They had a huge parking lot in the shopping center, so no sweat there! I will be back, because I have my eye on the apple french toast!

The service is good and the food never disappoints. Plenty of breakfast options available and the drinks hit just as well.

Thank goodness I joined the wait list upon leaving the house. Because it was at least a 30 min wait. This place really didn't impress me though. I got the eggs and cake, shrimp grits, hash brown casserole junk yard, seasonal crepes, and a caramel macchiato. All very underwhelming. The pancake was huge but it taste like something I can make at home. Shrimps and grits look nothing like the picture. Our grits was cold. Has brown casserole had way too much flavor. Overpowered. The seasonal crepe didn't look appetizing at all. It was way too sweet.The caramel macchiato seemed watered down. So overall, it was OKAY at best. Service was fast for how many people were there. I would not go out of my way to go here. It was also so so hot inside.

This is a nice clean restaurant. We went for brunch and the service was subpar. They kept forgetting things in our order, the pancakes were extremely dry, the coffee was bitter and to purchase a coffee mug it was 28.00 so we decided to not purchase the mug. The pricing was fair but I would not return.

Worst experience ever. Joined the waitlist on a 20-30 min wait that turned into an hr and some change. Witnessed the POOR COMMUNICATION host who would WHISPER peoples name when their table was ready & then cancel them when they couldn't hear her whisper, allow a party that arrived after our table and the table after us , INTIMIDATE her into skipping both OUR party & the party & seating them immediately. When I questioned her about it she looked me dead in my face & lied stating it was a smaller party than ours. Asked to speak with her manager whom was this young , overwhelmed man whom didn't have much of a response or apology for this poor behavior except for they are "short staffed". Food has potential & the service after we were seated was mid but that FIRST , YOUNG, UNINTERESTED, NONCHALANT, FACE (hostess) that receives you & guides you, is going to be the source of MANY displeased paying customers.

Hostess had a nasty attitude. Truly did not care about her job or customer service. Management was no where to be found.

We beat the crowds. Showing up during the week and early, we were seated right away. The service was good, though a little slower than I would have liked. I also wasn't looking to be rushed either. The omelettes looked good, so I went with the Big Ben. Side of hash browns. Coffee was good. When our omelettes finally showed they were .... warm. They'd obviously been waiting on the side as our waitress was dealing with a large group who were being quite difficult. There are no "runners" here sending food out when it's ready. It waits for the waitress to return to take their food to their table. Policy apparently. Stupid if you ask me. If my omelette was any cooler I would have sent it back. Busy place. Hearty portions. Just some minor glitches and it would be perfect. Only disappointment were the biscuits. They were not great at all.

Let's start with the shortcomings-- the ladies bathroom had 1 stall out of order and there's only 2 stalls to begin with. It wasn't a busy day or time (weekday, odd hour after lunch) and at one point there was a line of 3-4 of us in there waiting. Also, the cantaloupe was so hard it was terrible. All 4 of us dining had fruit and 85% of the fruit was way too hard, flavorless, indelible melon. Whoever prepped this absolutely would have known they were serving unripened cantaloupe and should've done better. I would've addressed this with our waitress but we saw so little of her. We never got refills. She was not attentive. (And as I mentioned before the place was not busy while we were there.) So those were my biggest issues. Best parts -- THE FOOD. Because to be honest that's what I came here to check out! Aside from the melon, all of the food was outstanding. The kids French toast was literally delicious and I'd go back just for that dish alone. #showstopper My brisket tacos were wonderful but the side of hash brown casserole stole the show. Food-- 4.5/5 Service-- 3/5 I'm saying this place a solid 4/5 and will be back for some of that French toast to see if I can move this place up to a 5.

The customer service has been good each time I've visited. The first time I visited I really liked the shrimp & grits 8.5/10 and the pancakes were good. My second visit I got the Alaskan Arnold. The food was cooked good but the salmon tasted bland and grits had too much pepper for my taste.

It's a great breakfast spot but oh my god, please invest in some sound padding for the echoing noise. It is always too loud in there to enjoy breakfast.

Hands down the worst service ever! After about 50 minutes waiting on food, the food comes and no silverware. We had to ask three different people for silverware by the time we got it the food was literally cold! We ask for a manager, his response was he was sorry but he was having a bad day with lots of other problems! He took care of the meal cost would redo the order we said thanks but no thanks. After over an hour who wants to wait again for bad service. Also the reason it took so long was they ran out of silverware!

Disappointing second visit from my family. my beautiful fiancée ordered the breakfast burrito and asked for no onions. the waitress mentioned that the queso had onions in it (why?) Surprisingly, there were a lot of onions. like a lot more than would just be in the queso. it actually seemed like she got EXTRA onions. My bacon and eggs were fine. nothing to write home about. there were long stretches where we were completely ignored by waitstaff both before and after ordering and eating. completely disappointing visit.

Second time coming to The Toasted Yolk Cafe! Jaylin F. Is 2 for 2 on our visits! He is an exceptional server and makes certain that every chance he gets he will come to the table. The ambiance is pretty laid back even with a packed house of people.

I love the toasted yolk! Wonderful food! My personal favorites are the Ruben and the shrimp and grits! 10/10 recommend!

Always looking to try NEW eating places, decided to give this one a try today!! Service started off kinna rocky, with it being a holiday and most folks was off, it was super crowded. After being seated, waiter finally came over and acknowledged us and said he would be rite with us. Came back took order for drinks and food, not long after he was back with a refreshing beverage. Food arrived shortly after.. and it DID NOT disappoint.. would recommend, just PACK some PATIENCE!!

Thanks Jaylin ! Good service today. My husband and I always come here for Brunch. He was attentive and nice.

Awesome place for brunch for couples and families. I had their burrito for takeout a few weeks ago and it was enormous, but ok. The real treat is the Arnolds and speciality drinks. The West Coast Arnold and Morning 'Rita we're phenomenal! Not pictured is their Bellini. The portion sizes are filling, but not too overwhelming. The ingredients are fresh and flavorful. And the drinks are a sweet touch to a traditional brunch. The service was on point and we never had to wait to be seated or wonder where our food was. The decor was very charming and bright too. Run don't walk to try them out. .

French toast were awesome. The mimosas could stand a tad more champagne in them. Sometimes if they get really busy they'll forget to bring you back something that needed to be redone. But overall the service is fantastic. Love it!

Excellent menu variety. All good tasting food. Plentiful portions. Ample seating inside and outside. Will visit again.

The level of service I have come to expect is on the decline. It took 20 minutes after being seated for server to come and take orders. We were thanked for our patience! The young man that bused tables was Johnny on the spot, but he is not there. Maybe it is time to find another Sunday breakfast place. My favorite bartenders are no longer there as well!

Anthony was fabulous and the food top notch. We will be back. The hashbrown casserole was amazing. Start with the donuts.

The food has been consistently good. Good service and the wait time for our food was very short.
