Broken Yolk Cafe in Costa Mesa, CA has a very clean and welcoming environment. The food we got was really good, and Sabino, our server, made sure that we were enjoying our time and we had everything we needed. Come visit and enjoy great food and an attentive staff.

### 5/5 — Great food Excellent service

Saturday morning. Busy day but the food and service were very excellent.  Oscar was great.  Thanks

### 5/5 — Yummy Golden State Benedict

*2026-03-04, version 3.1*

I have always found the food here fine and tastes freshly made. Today I tried the Golden State Benedict and it was super yummy. Nice hollandaise, crispy bacon, tomatoes grilled?  to give a really nice tomatoey flavor. This will be my new favorite. One of my issues has been slow service and having to flag someone down to get coffee refills. Not today!  The server seemed to be taking care of the whole restaurant and yet able to keep track of when I needed coffee, managing the tables in a timely manner. I had never seen her before but she was amazing!  And the back up crew also helped getting everything served and cleaned up in a timely manner.

### 5/5 — Dining experience

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — I can’t get past phone number

*2026-05-23, version 3.1*

I redownloaded the app and it takes me straight to phone number and phone number already. I know it’s taken it’s my phone number…

### 1/5 — App isn’t working

*2025-12-30, version 3.1*

It had me update and then verify my phone number. When I put in my phone number, it says it’s already taken. Uh…yeah, that’s my phone number! Please fix.

### 1/5 — Poor service

*2025-11-06, version 2.3*

Had to ask for a waiter and it took 48 minutes before we had our food. This is not normal. Told manager that they should have told us they were short staffed. Food was fantastic, as usual.

### 1/5 — Terrible experience

*2025-09-28, version 2.2*

We were seating at the patio and it was full of bugs. I returned the food and left. They should close the patio until this is fix. I was not the only one complaining about it.

### 1/5 — Rewards System Stinks

*2024-12-27, version 2.1*

I love the food, but can’t get the app to scan the barcode to collect points.

### 1/5 — App wouldn’t let me order

*2024-11-19, version 2.1*

Simple. App kept throwing error messages when trying to order delivery. Poor restaurant lost business.

### 1/5 — My wait/Cold Food

*2024-11-17, version 2.1*

Sat outside and was basically forgotten. My mom’s omelet was cold, cheese wasn’t melted. He discounted her meal and that was all. I won’t be coming back.

### 1/5 — App put us on waitlist for wrong restaurant

*2022-11-12, version 1.3*

As we drove our local San Diego restaurant, I added us to the waitlist in the app. The confirmation text arrived, and included a link to the menu for a Yuma, Arizona location, which seemed strange. There was nothing else to indicate what restaurant's wait list we'd signed up for. When we reached the restaurant, they confirmed that we were not on their waitlist at all! Apparently it really did add us to a waitlist in Yuma. I’m certainly not going to trust it in the future.

### 1/5 — Unorganized

*2022-09-04*

Waited after putting in name on waitlist on the Ap.  Once the time on the Ap came up we  checked  what the wait status was with the front.  Discovered that we could have seated ourselves outside and been served from there.  When I originally checked in at the front when we first got there that wasn’t mentioned.  We got seated inside shortly after and gave  our order as soon as waitress came by to take it.  It took an hour to get our food from that point.  Our orders were simple and it was just three of us.  Waitress didn’t apologize at all or say anything about the order possibly getting lost.  She just said “I’ll go check on your food” after we had been waiting about 45 minutes.

### 2/5 — Takes forever to get your food!

*2025-12-08, version 3.0*

Extra charges for everything.. not good!
We have been there 3 times and service takes forever, yes forever. 
We will not return!!!

*2026-08-15, version 3.1*

Sarah is an awesome waitress, cheerful, professional, and efficient.   Food was excellent.  Very clean and comfortable.  One of our favorite breakfast  places.

### 5/5 — Bathroom the only negative

*2026-07-28, version 3.1*

Everything was excellent from start to finish. The food, service, and overall atmosphere exceeded my expectations. If I had to mention one minor drawback, it would be that the bathroom could have been a little cleaner. Other than that, everything was perfect. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!
