Best Breakfast

"People who don't think they need therapy are more screwed-up than we are." Just a bit of breakfast wisdom from a volubly friendly waitress during a recent visit to Calamity Jane's. Despite its name, its decor goes light on the Wild West kitschabilia, preferring to fill the goldenrod-yellow walls of the sunny, creaky main room with local art. Th...

Let's get one thing straight: This isn't diner food. At this nook in the Himmarshee district, crisp home fries nestle beside deep-green, sautéed spinach, creating a bed for eggs so fresh that their yolks are orange. This Technicolor breakfast is made decadent by an oversized slice of bread from Gran Forno bakery, lovingly slathered with plenty o...

The sun is rising in the east And you are drunk upon the beach. Your belly aches from too much rum and wild, crazy, all-night fun. Where have you been, what did you do? And wait, is that a real tattoo? You need to stop and eat and think to lounge, relax, and have a drink. On Lincoln Road you will find the tower that the ivy climbs. The...

When a chef who's normally responsible for an impossibly smooth vegetable soup — as Tracy Miller is at Local — turns her attention to a simple bowl of oatmeal, coffee and doughnuts, the results are fantastic. The oats are that steel-cut Irish variety that requires you to chew a little before it warms your belly. The coffee is as black as pitch. ...

A true Houston landmark, The Breakfast Klub in Midtown is a hub of activity during its limited operating hours — 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays, and 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekdays.

For the past ten years, La Dolce Via has been one of the best-kept secrets on the St. Louis restaurant scene. Tucked away in a quiet corner of Forest Park Southeast, a few blocks from the Grove's main drag, it isn't the sort of place you stumble across. But for those lucky enough to have found it, La Dolce Via has become a destination: a place t...

It was one of the first IHOPs in Orange County, until Pancakes R Us owner, former CIA liaison/mujahideen fighter Abdulla Akbar, left the franchise in 2007, when he decided the menu was too boring. His new offerings were the same basic take on breakfast—hearty, meat-heavy American offerings with occasional dashes of European flair—but better. The...

Lou Mitchell's Restaurant Review: Lou Mitchell's is the kind of place where you'd take your visiting out-of-town mother or favorite aunt. (They'd approve of your good taste.) More than a dozen fluffy omelets --- from Michigan apples and cheddar cheese to garden-fresh zucchini and tomato --- are house specialties. We would wait in line (in fact, ...

2 Sparrows Restaurant Review: Gregory Ellis and Steven Fladung, both Charlie Trotter’s vets, are behind this neighborhood-y Lincoln Park gem, a jam-packed destination for contemporary breakfast, lunch and brunch. The dining room---all done up in salvaged wood and funky glass fixtures---is hip without being overwrought. And the food? Well, it’s c...

Toast Restaurant Review: Set in the middle of Yuppyville, Toast caters to the Range Rover and BMW set. Bring the kids, bring your mother, knowing your best defense will be rock-solid, gourmet breakfasts. Eats include filet and eggs, Nutella crêpes, lemon-poppy seed buttermilk pancakes and eggs Benedict crowned with truffle hollandaise. How about...

Tempo Restaurant Restaurant Review: The menu at Tempo is everything you’d expect from a coffee shop---and more. The restaurant is open around the clock, but the heaviest action comes during breakfast, when the regulars tuck into the fluffy, ingredient-packed omelets and french toast. Still, there is considerable Rush Street spillover during the ...

Eleven City Diner Restaurant Review: Vintage-cool décor and a hip diner vibe pervade this space, which fills with business people and kids from Columbia College next door. Start with mini Reuben sandwiches, followed by The Woody Allen, a triple-decker sandwich from Carnegie Deli in New York that alternates corned beef and pastrami on soft rye. I...

Southport Grocery & Cafe Restaurant Review: If you don’t like kids or crowds, it’s doubtful you’ll enjoy the scene at this ever-packed neighborhood spot, where brunchers come in droves for contemporary a.m. fare. Suck it up, we say, because the bites are satisfying enough to make you forget the tightly packed tables, gurgling tots and probable w...

Oak Tree Restaurant Review: Oak Tree, located on the sixth floor of a posh building on North Michigan Avenue, serves breakfast all day long, and offers more than the usual fare --- think malted-wheat waffles, an egg white scramble with goat cheese and spinach, turkey hash, fresh baked muffins, smoked salmon and smoked fish. The best part is that...

Walker Bros. Original Pancake House Restaurant Review: We challenge you to find a dish at Walker Bros. that disappoints. Cooking everything from scratch accounts for the quality and, consequently, crowds on the weekends. The meats---ham, bacon, Canadian bacon, sausage---are custom cured in St. Louis and sent north weekly. Orange and grapefruit j...

Ann Sather Restaurant Review: This warhorse remains one of the most popular weekend breakfast spots in town. In addition to serving good eggs and omelets, stars include feather-light Swedish pancakes with tart-sweet lingonberry sauce, dynamite waffles and french toast served with peach compote.

a.kitchen Restaurant Review: Chef Bryan Sikora (ex-Django and Talula's Table) is in the kitchen of this cozy 60-seat restaurant, adjacent to the AKA Rittenhouse Square hotel. In a modern, crisp space that includes a marble chef's counter (the best seats in the house) and a smattering of sidewalk seating, a.kitchen specializes in innovative small...

Kanella Restaurant Review: Chef Konstantinos Pitsillides brings authentic Cypriot-Greek cuisine to Kanella, a charming BYOB near Pine Street’s Antique Row. Open for breakfast four days a week, this is the spot for Greek yogurt with honey and walnuts, crêpes stuffed with a semi-soft sheep cheese, and eggs frizzled in olive oil. But it’s at dinner...

Garces Trading Company Restaurant Review: This is a venture from Iron Chef Jose Garces, a fun combination of gourmet takeaway and sit-down restaurant.

Famous 4th Street Delicatessen Restaurant Review: This is a landmark deli, with white-tiled walls covered with signed photos of celebrities who have dined here on the traditional Jewish specials.

Ponzio's Restaurant Review: First, it was a diner with a retail bakery. Then, Ponzio's sprouted a few more rooms, and a cocktail lounge, and became one of South Jersey’s favorite family dining destinations. From business breakfasts through ladies lunching, to family dinners and late night travelers---the traffic never stops. The waitresses know ...

Down Home Diner Restaurant Review: Jack McDavid, a local chef who was preaching farm to table long before it came into vogue, is behind this nifty diner tucked away in a corner of Reading Terminal Market. Its name says it like it is---homey and comfortable. Start with a breakfast of red-eye gravy with biscuits and ham, or poached eggs with Phill...

Square 1682 Restaurant Review: Chef Guillermo Tellez has hit his stride at Square 1682, the sleek restaurant in Hotel Palomar Philadelphia, the Kimpton property in the former Art Deco American Institute of Architects building. The restaurant is a convivial spot, as ideal for power lunching as it is for a cozy dinner for two. But it’s Tellez’s ad...

Melrose Diner Restaurant Review: South Philly's Melrose Diner is all sleek and aluminum outside and warmth and Formica within, with sassy waitresses who banter with regulars and dispense advice along with the surprisingly good coffee. Travel back in time by relying on the comfort of chopped meat, as in chopped steak with mushroom gravy (otherwis...

13 Restaurant Review: When it comes to comfortable dining, 13 is a lucky number indeed. The restaurant is named for the thirteen British colonies that became the United States.

Art and Soul Restaurant Review: One of Capitol Hill’s classiest eateries is on the ground floor of The Liaison Capitol Hotel, just off the lobby, making this a convenient stopover for Hill types on their way to or from meetings: keep your ears open, as you may hear some interesting political tidbits. It’s also the brainchild of owner-chef Art Sm...

Old Ebbitt Grill Restaurant Review: When it comes to busy, bustling restaurants in the nation’s capital, there is none more vibrant than the grand dame of the Clyde’s Restaurant Group: Old Ebbitt Grill. The interior invokes images of a late nineteenth century saloon in its Victorian décor and use of rich mahogany wood. While the historic memorab...

Morrison-Clark Restaurant Restaurant Review: Notably upscale fare emerges from the kitchen at this old-time favorite. The menu, formerly overseen by chef Janis McLean who has now departed the stoves, may include a five-course meal with the choice of Arctic char or New York steak as the main course. But on ordinary days, the Southern-inspired men...

Ici Urban Bistro Restaurant Review: With its French chef firmly in charge of all the menus, Ici Urban Bistro can now claim its proper place in metro DC’s lineup of distinguished restaurants. Even breakfast is not a forgotten affair, with attention paid to such dishes as a Nutella crêpe or a breakfast croissant sandwich. Lunch and dinner are equa...

The Hamilton Restaurant Review: The Hamilton, part of Clyde’s Restaurant Group, has a swanky, almost-1930s setting with its elegant booths, dark wood interiors, plush carpeting and paneled walls, seemingly endless dining halls and handsome bars, and entertainment theater. As always, Clyde’s shines with its attention to details, but the draw is t...

Founding Farmers Restaurant Review: Strategically located for highest visual interest on the first floor of the IMF building, Founding Farmers appeals to all those craving home-spun food with a high-gloss spin. Set in a modern steel, glass and wood venue, FF operates on the premise that local and sustainable are more than just stock phrases that...

Florida Avenue Grill Restaurant Review: The busiest hours at this Washington old-timer mean a patient wait for one of the few booths or bar stool seats. Although good Southern food has been served here since 1944, breakfasts may be the most popular meal. Fortunately for late-risers, breakfast is served until 1 p.m. Heady aromas of sausage and sc...

Cafe du Parc Restaurant Review: With its very French name and picturesque views of Pershing Park outside the Willard InterContinental Washington, Café du Parc adds an element of sophistication to the downtown DC dining scene. Besides, the menu --- if not the actual kitchen itself --- is overseen by one of Europe’s most famous chefs: Antoine West...

Ted's Bulletin Restaurant Review: Taking DC---or, at least, Capitol Hill---by storm, Ted’s Bulletin steps back a few decades with its Americana food, with a retro look at milkshakes, bountiful breakfasts (served most of the day), Sunday supper dishes like buttermilk country fried steak with a crunchy coating, and a selection of burgers to tickle...

Bistro Bis Restaurant Review: Capitol Hill’s favorite place for spotting politicos and schmoozing with lobbyists, this upscale Franco-American restaurant stars DC’s mega chef Jeffrey Buben, a man who knows a thing or two about feeding the very fussy local crowd. Lunch is elegant with simple fare beautifully prepared and served. Although the menu...

In 10 years’ time, we may not remember the Great Somerville Breakfast War—the longtime feud between this fabled hot spot and its neighbor, Ball Square Café. But there’s no forgetting Sound Bites’ ooey-gooey, fig-stuffed French toast or Moroccan eggs. The Swine & Swiss omelet? That’s the reason there’s a line out the door every weekend. It’s the ...

Henrietta's Table Restaurant Review: In a spacious setting with a Crate & Barrel-meets-New England farmhouse feel, Henrietta's Table transcends its hotel-restaurant reputation. Chef Peter Davis was a champion of local products before it was trendy, allowing the menu to speak for itself with straightforward presentations of distinctly American di...

flour bakery + cafe Restaurant Review: Since opening this flagship South End bakery, pastry chef Joanne Chang (who paid her dues with stints at New York's Payard Pâtisserie and Mistral) now operates two others along with a restaurant, Myers + Chang, which she owns with her husband, chef Chris Myers. Customers crowd the bakery in the morning hour...

Charlie's Sandwich Shoppe Restaurant Review: Equal parts old-school diner and neighborhood coffee shop, Charlie's Sandwich Shoppe embodies what the South End was before the moneymakers moved into their brownstones. Cops, cabbies and old-timers mingle with hipsters at the timeless counter stools and communal tables. Omelets and pancakes that outs...

The Beacon Hill Bistro Restaurant Review: Though nestled in a posh section of Boston, The Beacon Hill Bistro, owned by Peter and Cecilia Rait, is entirely devoid of attitude. The long, slender, bright restaurant is lined with torch-like sconces and has a cozy eight-seat bar; a rather reasonable wine list is available, too. While you will find ne...

The Bristol Restaurant Review: The Bristol features everything from soups and salads to steak frites and the famous Bristol burger. Power players dine center stage in a room featuring plush couches and mahogany tables, and with tuxedoed waitstaff and live piano music. The menu, too, takes a luxe approach to casual fare. For breakfast, you will f...

Cabot’s Ice Cream & Restaurant Restaurant Review: From omelets and waffles to burgers and shakes, this American diner-style restaurant serves up classic dishes for breakfast (served all day), lunch and dinner.

Cafe Fleuri Restaurant Review: Café Fleuri is known for its famed Saturday Chocolate Bar, a September through June sweet tooth's extravaganza.

The Sunday jazz brunch is the more adult (and savory) equivalent of the Saturday s...

Whistle Stop Restaurant & Bakery Restaurant Review : Mega-breakfasts at this local spot are made from scratch, and they're quite good.

Amaya Restaurant Review: Set in the elegant old-world Mediterranean resort The Grand Del Mar, Amaya may be the casual restaurant at the hotel, but it's still a study in opulence and good taste. Opt for a seat in the attractive bar area, a large booth in the dining room or an al fresco spot under the striped awning on the terrace. Guests can star...

Cafe Secret Restaurant Review: The Basagoitia family from Lima works diligently in their compact kitchen within this quaint cottage, producing authentic Peruvian dishes.

Swami's Cafe Restaurant Review: Located across the road from the famous Swami’s surf break, this little café powers out hearty-healthy food. The burritos bulge with black beans, eggs and avocado---tofu and soy cheese are readily on hand for vegetarians and vegans. The heaping huevos rancheros or organic multi-grain waffles are good after a morni...

The Mission Restaurant Review: Hip, friendly and easy on the pocketbook, The Mission in North Park has everything one could ask for in breakfast and lunch fare. Plates are ample and satisfying.

The old-school coffee shop sports a mixed clientele, from the older set to teens with the occasional celebrity or Chargers p...

Beach Grass Cafe Restaurant Review: Despite the fairly austere setting and haphazard, often slow service, Beach Grass Café produces some seriously tasty food.

Cafe 222 Restaurant Review: Café 222 is a colorful, inviting space with a menu full of tasty food with playful names like Wakey Wakey, Eggs and Bakey or Green Eggs and Spam.

Miss Shirley's Cafe Restaurant Review: Miss Shirley's is a mixture of down-home soul and uptown savvy. If she were a woman, every man in town would want to marry her. She's a restaurant, but she's still one of the most popular girls around. The café sports a sleek, contemporary American Beauty-hued dining room with banquettes and pendant lights....

Golden West Cafe Restaurant Review: Expanded digs down the street from the old rowhouse on The Avenue in Hampden have given Golden West Café a full bar and lots more seating. But larger quarters have not altered chef/owner Thomas Rudis' basic recipe: funky décor and eclectic cooking at very decent prices make a winning combination. The menu, bas...

B&O American Brasserie Restaurant Review: Named for the legendary Baltimore & Ohio (B&O) railway line, and located in said railway’s landmark Beaux-Arts headquarters, the B&O American Brasserie looks just as it should: masculine and understatedly sophisticated.

Fuller's Coffee Shop Restaurant Review: Stepping into Fuller’s is a bit like falling into a '50s photograph.

Don’t even think about ordering a latté. Instead, try tradi...

At this Tremont anchor, chef-owner Heather Haviland serves up the day's most important meal in style. How about a sandwich on housemade bread, loaded up with farm-fresh eggs and melty cheese?

TooJay's Restaurant Review: When fast food just won’t do, take a deep breath and slide into one of the booths at TooJay’s for a dose of comfort food.

Central Michel Richard Restaurant Review: Central is proof that at least one big-name chef is not afraid to open a 24-hour eatery on the Vegas Strip.

A lively atmosphere prevails, w...
