Toasted Gastrobrunch 339 North Cleveland Street, Oceanside, CA 92054

"Great location! Good food! But they need to work on a few things. First and foremost, I had brunch and ordered an omelet. I can't speak on what the dinner experience would be. Although it was busy, wait time was quick for a party of 3. Regarding food: breakfast is typical for any establishment of this nature. Nothing extraordinary. Pricing is a little higher, but that is expected for a restaurant near the shore. It is a large establishment with approximately 4 bartenders and more than 6 waiters. This facility has a large bar area that seems like it is always busy (although there is no view in the bar area). There is a wonderful outdoor seating area with patio umbrellas available for shade but it comes with a price. Bees!! They were everywhere in the patio area! Now I understand why many people were waiting to be seated inside or near the bar. If you are afraid of bees or allergic to bees, this is not a place for you! Service: Our server was friendly and courteous, but he was overworked. He had difficulty serving all his tables in a timely manner! Our food was late to come out and our drinks were not refilled in a timely manner (by the way, if you don't want to get charged for every refill, which you will, get water and regular coffee). We waited for a while to pay as well."

"The shrimp and grits were okay. The shrimp had good flavor but was not impressed with this dish. Had it better at other restaurants. The good ole Benny was good but the hollandaise sauce made the dish cold. The potato balls were good. The kids had the stuffed french toast and the Elvis French toast and both were delicious."

"What an amazing breakfast spot! Everything is so special! If you're not too concerned about your cholesterol and/or once you have a cheat meal, then you have to try their ABC hash. It was out of the world delicious yumminess in my mouth. The pork belly was cooked just right. It also came with two eggs, cooked to your style. I thoroughly enjoyed this. Text Colin you would most likely want to share this with your friend. Then we also ordered red velvet pancake. It was quite special. It tasted almost like nothing bundt cake but in a pancake form. I think next time I will try their stuffed French toast. Came here on the weekday at breakfast time. No wait. Will definitely come again! Dog-friendly patio for the win!!!!"

"Came here for a lunch double date and everyone had a good time. Have to get on the wait list because it was for brunch on a Saturday but the table was ready at the exact expected time. Nice cozy atmosphere inside and everything was very aesthetic including the food. Coffee latte was really delicious. Ordered it with nonfat milk and sugar-free vanilla syrup. Really delicious and smooth and creamy and nice overall. Husband and I split the veggie hash and the lobster toast. The Veggie Hash with Egg Whites; It was a good portion of food and quite flavorful with the goat cheese and the Chipotle pesto and all the vegetables in there. Really good balance of flavor and all the ingredients went well together as well. Lobster Toast was decent too. Love the rosemary sourdough on the bottom and a good amount of avocado and lobster and bacon on top. The corn was a nice touch. I needed It to be a little more spicy so ask for some crushed chili flakes on the side. That really took to another level and completed the dish. Friends got the Brisket Hash and the Crispy Chicken Sandwich and they both enjoyed the food as well. That sandwich was finished really quick! Got the Rosemary bread along with that brisket hash and she said the plain bread was delicious as well. They also ordered the IPA beer and espresso martini (Martini was the recommendation of the server and they seemed to like it)."
