Asma BandarAugust 31, 2016The Stuffed French toast is everything! You might have to stand in line to get a seat but it's worth it plus they sometimes offer sweets for people in line. Their fruits are fresh and extra good.
АндрейAugust 22, 2013Great service. We had a little chat with waiter and told her that we on honeymoon in La Jolla. In 10 minutes she brought us a piece of cake as a sweet compliment from the restaurant. It was very nice!
La Broi WaltonJanuary 15, 2014Stuffed French toast is great and more than enough...just make sure to share it with someone or have your partner get something with eggs, meat, etc. if you want more than just delicious French Toast.
Abdullah OJune 29, 2019We are here for breakfast (served till 3pm on Sat) They take your name and number and text you to be seated. The order was stuffed French toast and La Jolla Benedict. They were yummy and big portions.
Kylie BeckMarch 20, 2016My recommendation: Don't eat for 3 days and order every single thing on the menu. Delicious food!! French toast is out of this world, but the scone with their watermelon homemade jam blew my mind.
Natalie WalkerJuly 22, 2015The fruit bowl is one of the only ones I've seen worthy of being called a BOWL. Huge amount of fruit, berries, melons, and citrus. Reasonable price and the scones are amazing. The staff is super sweet
Alexis AkersMarch 8, 2019Sitting on the terrasse was lovely. Our waiters were very nice. We really enjoyed the food, from the avocado mash to eggs Benedict and the pancakes. You need to try the iced Mexican Mocha!
Katherine JaniszewskiAugust 6, 2017Everything we had was amazing! Mexicali, La Jolla eggs and stuffed French toast. I loved my Mexican mocha, totally recommend it here. A few flys but nothing in there control.
Leslie OrtizAugust 22, 2019Food was delicious! Coffee was good but my friend’s Mexican Mocha was even better! If you’re looking into a breakfast or brunch place this is a must go!
Jenny DeanMarch 23, 2018Service was wonderful,went in to try for first time & it was pretty great! Stuffed French toast IS AMAZING! Appreciated the service & overall will definitely go back to try something else on the menu!
Richard RevillaDecember 19, 2012Great place for Sunday breakfast in the Cove. La Jolla Cove is right across the street. Try the different kinds of Pancakes. The place will make you fell as if you are in A small New England home.
Hanan MalOctober 6, 2014I came here with a friend yesterday and I had to bring my husband today! The polenta Benedict is to die for, and they make the best French toast, it's isn't too eggy! The scones are amazing!
AmateurConciergeJuly 13, 2016Nice patio seating to enjoy the beautiful SD weather and tons of great egg creations for a hearty breakfast. Even on a weekday its poppin in the morning
VickiJanuary 3, 2016The chicken hash here is so yummy and tastes healthy. My sister got the lemon blueberry ricotta pancakes and they were perfect!! Definitely a great place for brunch.
CaseyJuly 24, 2017Pass on classic options. This place knows how to do sweet breakfast well! Brioche French toast melts in your mouth. Scone + jam = deliciousness.
.March 17, 2015I like the place and the food! And they have a fresh orange juice which i normally cant find in America
Ayman GhozaizAugust 28, 2017Great place for family, friend, also best food and excellent hospitality from The Cottage staff
ShawnNovember 16, 2014Polenta eggs Benedict was spot-on and original. The goat cheese added a savory side to the sweet polenta and perfectly cooked poached eggs.
Bryce RobertsAugust 7, 2013Benny and French toast varietals are all strong, but the chilaquiles are something special. ask for the chalula sauce as they come to the table a bit under seasoned.
The kids' pancake is huge and delicious! My kids love it. I don't think I have ever had a bad meal here. And their granola is FAB - take a bag home or to give as a gift-- you won't regret it!
JCMarch 9, 2018It is a big portion for the stuffed french toast. Im liking the burnt crunchy edges of the bread. 😆
Nina MoJune 4, 2011Stuffed french toast with marscapone cheese!!! La jolla Benedict!! Really cute. Waited an hour at 2pm on a Sunday but they give coffee&coffee cake while u wait and nice scenery to walk around.
Michelle LyuJanuary 6, 2016Godly brunch... Get the polenta benedict if you're looking for something a little different
Lynn PinaMarch 10, 2013The eggs Benedict are delicious! The home fries are great too. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside with a hint of spice.
Colby CMarch 15, 2014Come here for great food and fast service. The bus boys are amazingly speedy and they keep your water glass full.
Alana YarbroughNovember 27, 2011Try the Crabcakes Benedict with avocado! Yum. Get the mini order of stuffed French Toast for 1st timers. (the Veggie & SoCal omelettes are delicious, too)
Richmond P.September 15, 2010Great find with a nice relaxing vibe, great menu at the right price. The fish in the fish tacos is grilled rather than fried; nice & light. AND they have a Dyson Airblade in the bathroom. Awesome.
Bradford RileyAugust 14, 2016Eggs benedict are great. Try with crab, and maybe without tomato to keep the muffins from getting soggy.- JCApril 4, 2014the simple menu and freshness of ingredients makes this one of my top breakfast! but was it worth the wait? im not sure
- S BFebruary 7, 2017One of the best breakfast places I have ever eaten at. Waffles are amazing. Omelettes are also incredible
Maile KraussAugust 18, 2012You can order half Benedict's and half batters. The crab Benedict is legit! And don't forget single orders of the French toast.
Brittny KunkleJune 17, 2018Half order of the Eggs Benedict with one slice of the stuffed French Toast was heavenly!
Get here early to avoid crowds. Order the California Benedict or the Country French Toast. Insanely delish!
Lauren NichollMarch 17, 2010I highly recommend the crab cake salad- delish! Although, I kinda wanted to take a bite of every person's meal sitting out on the patio. Go here on any sunny day and you won't be disappointed.
peter philipp wingsoeJuly 14, 2012Stick with the amazing stuffed French toast, an be sure to top it with fresh strawberry and banana. Benedict was lackluster at best!
James YoungFebruary 2, 2015Chorizo Hash was great. Super attentive and friendly staff. Just an excellent experience.
E AlixDecember 7, 2015They let you go half & half on the Eggs Benny! I went California & Crab Cake 👌🏻
Scott DavisMay 18, 2013If you are feeling a combo of eggs Benedict and their AMAZING stuffed French toast they can do half orders!
Dhaval RawalFebruary 7, 2021Great vegan/vegetarian options! Outdoor seating, all masked up staff. 👍🏽
Jorge AMarch 23, 2014Great place to go, but be ready to wait more than 1 hour! Not always is worth the wait
Amanda JablonSeptember 1, 2014Lemon ricotta pancakes were delicious. Ask for some jam instead of syrup. Yum!
Ashley BartosikMay 3, 2013California Eggs Benedict are amazing. Can't wait to try the sister restaurant in Chestnut Hill, MA.
