| - I have to say, I don't understand what all the hype is with Famous Toastery!
My partner and I went there for breakfast, and we were happy about the convenient hours as they were open at 8:00 AM on a weekday. It can be hard to find a place for a sit-down breakfast during the week.
When we arrived we were immediately seated and informed that Famous Toastery uses a different service style, which meant that we didn't have one specific server but rather could ask anyone for anything. Since there were only two other tables I didn't really see any impact, positive or negative, of this service style.
I had perused the menu ahead of time for vegan options and saw a tofu omelette. I thought this meant that the tofu would be flattened, stuffed and pressed like an omelette--a vegan breakfast dish I have enjoyed before at other restaurants. But when I asked the server he said that it was indeed an egg omelette with tofu inside. WTF??
Since there were no vegan options, I settled on pancakes. There was nothing memorable about my meal, or my partner's.
Famous Toastery does have a full-bar, and was serving some yummy looking Bloody Marys. We won't be back, but if we did return, it would be for one of them. Otherwise, I'm unimpressed.
