We tried The Breakfast Joynt for the first time after seeing them listed in the Arizona Republic's Top 15 Phoenix Breakfast Restaurants. Our waitress seemed stressed and she was a bit surly until I mentioned it was our first visit after reading the publicity. She then explained that they were short-handed and while I sympathize, customers shouldn't experience negativity when they're trying to have a nice weekend breakfast. The food was quite good and definitely worth coming back for. The Swedish pancakes, my all-time childhood favorite, were exceptional and probably the best we've ever eaten!
