Toast Two - Chicago

This was my friend 's last stop before I dropped him off at the airport and if this was the sole determining factor for him to return, I 'm not sure if he would. There were a only a few tables, there since it was a weekday and in the late morning. I 'm not one for a sweet breakfast so, I didn 't get their sweet options: no pancake orgy or stuffed French toast for this guy. I went with their Breakfast burger which sounded really good but when I got it was just ok for me. The patty seemed pretty small, especially since the french 'bolo ' bread was pretty big, it seemed no different than a ciabatta to me so I didn 't understand the distinction. The sandwich was pretty bland; the prosciutto seemed like an airplane cold cut sandwich and the pesto mayo was just...green. I 'll try a little harder to find a breakfast place on a weekday morning.

Toast has been around forever (or what feels like forever) and there is a good reason for it. They do a solid, solid brunch. I haven't had a bad meal there from the eggs Benedict with steak to the breakfast burrito, I'm always happy with the quality and the portion size. They have a good kids menu as well, although avoid the s'mores pancakes unless you want your child going sugar crazy afterward. Service is excellent and food comes out quick. They have crayons and paper for the kiddos as well. They get 4 stars instead of 5 because while I enjoy their brunch, there isn't any one dish that I absolutely love or crave. I go to toast because the price is right, the food is good, and the wait usually isn't terrible.

Came here on a Sunday with a friend and without a reservation got seated pretty quick. The French toast orgy was pretty heavy, but a bit disappointing the flavors mixed in a bad way for me and I couldn't pinpoint the flavor it was going for. My friend got the Benedict's and they were much more pleasant. But overall I feel like this place was just alright

Due to medical dietary restriction, this is going to be an unfair review because I was very limited to what I could eat. I had scrambled cheesy eggs with pesto sauce and Chai tea. While my guest had an apple, pear and gruyere cheese crepe with coffee. Everything was good expect the crepe was extremely lacking. The fruit inside wasn't warm or cooked it was left raw and cold. The bill came out to $30 and wasn't worth it. I hope to come back to try a specialty dish.

Instead of being stuck in Chicago traffic, a brunch was the best solution to kill time. Yelp had TOAST with some high recommendations and close to an exit on the freeway.. so we came.. Place is pretty cool, there's inside and outside seating, and the weather called for outside seating, it was cool and breezy. The tables have umbrellas if you want some shade, but with the trees providing some shade, it really isn't necessary.. Menu is 1 page and is very simply to read along with being very descriptive with what each option is all about. The scramble eggs options seemed to be very popular in yelp so my wife and I decided to try a scramble each. She went with the prosciutto and pesto and I went with chorizo and cheddar.. both were amazing. Talk about portion and seasoning being on point for each dish, and you for yourself a winner here. These are both just tries, and once you do, come again and try something else. I also tried the Stuffed French Toast, which was ordered as a kids order 1 slice) full side is 2 pieces. The French toast had a sweet cheese inside, i believe it's called mascarpone ? I could be wrong.. but try it ! Add the syrup and it's like whoa all in your taste buds.. seriously.. The service was 5/5 hands down. Her recommendation of 1 piece stuffed French toast was awesome as the scramble portions are pretty big.. will definitely come again ! If you want a great brunch, in Chicago, come here.
