| - I treated myself to brunch alone today, and my visit to Yitz's was quite nice. The bakery is at the front when you walk in, with what seems like millions of pies, cookies, and pastries on display. You can also order take-out sandwiches and salads at the front, or you can proceed to the back, where the surprisingly large dining room is. No waiting for a table here, even on a Sunday just after noon.
On Saturdays and Sundays, they have a brunch menu, which I ordered from. I had pastrami and eggs, served with rye toast and home fries. Piping hot, tasty, and a very reasonable sized portion.
Service was good - my bottomless coffee was refilled when necessary. I declined the server's offer of lemon pie for dessert (as tempting as it was) and tried two of Yitz's popular chocolate chip cookies. A great accompaniment to the rest of my coffee!
At $15 (plus tip) for brunch, coffee, and cookies, the prices are reasonable although not rock-bottom.
