When i arrived I was excited because this place is packed!! However, I left feeling like the food quality and taste was similar to Denny's. This is a great place to cure a hangover but not the kind of place to go if you like a healthy breakfast. I typically go to Tryst in dessert ridge. Its more organic and fresh. This place is busy though so to each their own!

Sat outside at our table for about 20 minutes as servers walked past us over and over. Finally flagged one down and the look on his face was like "Oh, didn't see you there" as if we magically became corporeal. Granted I came on a Sunday around 11am, but 20 minutes without even being acknowledged really grinds my gears. The food was OK but nothing special. Plenty of better breakfast places around.

This place is the bomb!! Came here for lunch because we wanted breakfast. We were seated right away and our server Alex S. was awesome! He was attentive, friendly and answered our questions. My husband ordered the omelette and it was really really good. I'm not sure what they did but it was probably the best omelette I've ever tasted. I had the Irish Benny and that was fabulous too. The hash was homemade and not that canned stuff and the hash browns were crisp and not a greasy mess. We will definitely be back!!!!

All the reviews focus on breakfast but I also love their lunch. Where else can you get tater tots? The patty melt is perfect and just like breakfast, all are generous portions with great service.

I have been following Dave, the owner of the Breakfast Joynt. For YEARS!!! The other location was nice, nothing compared to the location now. The reviews that are negative, are a little harsh. The food is always spot on, Richard is the man to wait on you. Try and correct the problem before you give this Restaurant negative reviews. Everyone has an off day, that includes all of you who gave the horrible reviews. Signed Loyal customers.

This family run breakfast spot is my husband and 2 year olds favorite place. Very friendly staff. We go every weekend. I love the French toast.

Honestly I don't know where all these great reviews come from. I took my family here for breakfast and the service was okay and the food was average. I think you're really paying for the ambience of the area. I would say if you're starving and you want some breakfast this will do but if you're looking for excellent food you might want to keep driving. I ordered a breakfast burrito and my burrito bread was soggy and the contents were Luke warm as if they had just been microwaved. My wife's pancakes weren't much better. I would say this place is at most average.

Best in the North Valley! Gluten Free offerings too. Go early or pay the price in wait time. The Basic and omelets offer the most bang for buck.

What a nice little breakfast joint! Chase, our server, was very friendly and attentive to me and the rest of his customers. Mom had the jalapeno chicken soup, loved it! I had the jalapeno chicken club, loved it! Only disappointment, the jalapeno wasn't cooked, just cut up and placed on the sandwich. Other than that, loved it! I know, picky. Planning on bringing the kids :)

No extra charge for egg whites! Great new location for them. A little hard to find -- if you see Flemings, you'll see the Joynt, which is right next to it. Great egg dishes, and they have steel cut oatmeal, which is what I make at home. The only negative about the restaurant is that it's a bit small. Nice outdoor seating though, so if the weather is good, you'll have some great seats

Excellent spot - gets busy quickly so get there early. The staff is very friendly and the food is great and made fresh and delivered to the table fast. Had the California eggs benedict with house made hollandaise and it was very tasty. Prices are very reasonable and breakfast for two came out to $ 26.00. The breakfast joynt also has great patio seating with misters.

Great service, an incredible patio and good breakfast food. What more could you possibly want in a haunt? Sitting outside in December is just spectacular.

Rick H.
We picked this location because it sounded good and it was on the way to a spring training game. What a great choice. We sat at the bar, which was pretty comfortable. The restaurant was a little busy and the server warned us the food is a little backed up and it might be a little longer. That is always appreciated. She kept our water glasses and coffee mugs full. We both selected the Eggs Benedict with ham. The ham made the dish. The english muffins were toasted and crisp, the ham was thick and fantastic, the hollandaise sauce was very good and the hash browns were crispy and hot. Did I say the coffee was good too. Our server, Gina, was very good and attentive. Overall we felt this was one of our best meals over the 4 days in Scottsdale.

First time to the place and we had amazing food! The service was friendly and the place was very clean. If you like spicy food, you need to try the Southwest Gravy. My son had the crepes. I don't like sweets and thought they were amazing! I had Bruce's bowl. You like breakfast meats, then this for you! Bacon, sausage, off the bone ham and if course some eggs and hasbrowns! Not for the faint of heart. You MUST add the pork green chile too. Can't wait to go back and try something else!

Chukki S.
Meh. I think this place is overrated, overpriced and overhyped. Just my opinion. I ordered the chicken and waffles. It was pretty bland overall, although the siracha syrup was really good. It honestly didn't seem much different than something I could probably make at home. I guess I'm spoiled with LoLo's Chicken and Waffles and had high expectations. The iced tea wasn't very good, tasted a bit bitter. For the wait (about 30 minutes to get seated) and the price it just wasn't worth it for me. Service was adequate. For me I'd rather just eat at a Waffle House. Faster, cheaper, and tastier in my opinion. It looks like some people really enjoy this place though so try it out for yourself.

Worth the 45min drive. Need one in the west valley. Great eggs - usually think eggs are eggs but scrambled eggs are big, fluffy and tasty. And food comes out really fast.

I've eaten here 5 times and the service has been friendly and prompt. Food is consistently good at breakfast. This is my first lunch meal. Also good but I think breakfast is better. (Hence the name!). Strongly recommended!

Breakfast around 10a on a Sunday. Not overly crowded. Two of us were able to be seated right away. The service was very friendly. I like the 9.99 omelet with all-you-want fillings and no up charge for egg whites. So that's what I got. Comes with shredded potatoes and toast or pancakes. I ordered pancakes. I must have sipped half a carafe of coffee waiting on my food. I swear it took 35m for two identical orders! Waaaaayyyy too long!! The omelet and potatoes were tasty, but the pancakes were yuck!!! The texture was God awful...thick, rubbery & chewy and the syrup is equally gross. I think I had 3 bites and was quickly over them! Next time I'll stick with eggs/bacon/toast!

Don S.
Breakfast Joynt is a great locals place. It is a little hard to find, but make sure you find it!! Breakfast is served all the time they are open Everyone on the staff is friendly. The owner, David, is usually around and he obviously appreciates the bus7. BTW, the food is always great. They have good specials weekdays. This is definitely a keeper! .

Im not a huge fan of biscuits and gravy but I decided to try it here because I heard they were good. AH-MAY-ZING!!! Hot fluffy biscuits with sasauge gravy with warm golden hash browns and an egg cooked to your liking. If biscuits arent your favorite thing, try it any way. You wont regret it! Oh and my moms eggs benedict was delicious as well!

Love this place. The menu has a huge amount of options from pancakes and omelettes to lunch options and they even have delicious healthy options! Service is always good and I've never had an issue and restaurant is always clean. Highly recommend!!

Located up in North Scottsdale, it holds it own with other great breakfast places in the valley. I loved the red velvet waffle. It's dessert and breakfast all rolled into one. They have a omelette where you can add everything including the breakfast sink for one price. Service was exceptional from the friendly hostess to the waiter.

Jordan H.
Pretty hidden but worth the search... Right next to the steak house.... The basic is delicious, hash browns were a little burn but the service was great and friendly with a smile... Definitely need to check it out

Decided to give this place a try this morning after we found it on yelp. Very good food! They offer everything from build your own omelets, to different types of French toast and pancakes to crepes and several eggs Benedict to choose from. But the highlight was the biscuits and gravy. The gravy was excellent and the biscuits were soft and fluffy. One of the best ones I've ever had. Definitely give this place a try if you're looking for a good breakfast.

Naceem P.
The place gets very loud. Lots of family's come in from the DC Ranch area. But the food is good. I had the California Eggs Benedict which was excellent & my husband had biscuits & gravy and that was good as well. Service is great. Once the weather cools off and we could sit outside that would be the perfect situation with this place.

Todd T.
First time eating here...overall pretty good experience. Sat at the bar top, waitresses were friendly and attentive. Brought coffee right away and checked refills every 5 min which I really appreciated! Good omelette, prepared differently than I've seen before, but good tasting. Much better than the breakfast I had up the street at Market Street Kitchen. Would return here for sure to try the rest of the menu. Need to test out their patty melt...the true test for a roadside diner type of joint. Overall...a B+ on my visit.

Jason H.
Great place! The food, service, and atmosphere is top notch. Dining outside here is my favorite ... Especially since they are DOG friendly. When they seated us they brought out a bowl of water for our dog too! Our favorite is the omelet and Belgian waffles!

Mary B.
We really enjoyed breakfast here. Since it was a weekday after 9am it was very quiet, so the atmosphere was very relaxed. The place is clean, including the bathrooms. The food is excellent and we'll priced, and the ingredients seem to be good quality: my fruit crepes consisted of fresh strawberries and blueberries, not fruit from a can. My husband's hash brown looked like real potatoes, not stuff from a dry-mix. My only complaint is that the coffee tasted a bit watery, and could have been stronger. Finally, our waiter Richard was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive (without being annoying). Will definitely return if in the scottsdale area again.

Excellent omelets and light fluffy pancakes. There are so many great breakfast places in Scottsdale. This just may be the best in N Scottsdale. The patio feels like you are dining at a mountain ski lodge.

Our group of five wanted a classic American breakfast. This place delivered. We decided to eat outside on the patio , this was not a hassle for anyone. Service was great and everyone had coffee that was full at all times. I had the 2x2x2 which was there 2 pancakes 2 eggs and 2 bacon . Fluffy pancakes what more can a man ask for with warm syrup. Win.

I've been here several times and have been happy with the food and service. I usually get the omelet breakfast which comes with your choice of ingredients, hash browns and two pancakes. It's the perfect combination of savory and sweet. I always have enough food to take home leftovers for the next day.

Great new place for breakfast! It's a traditional American breakfast joint with great service and food! The waffles and pancakes are very airy and fluffy. The potato and corned beef hash are to die for! I would definitely recommend this place for anybody who is looking for a nice breakfast with family.

Brought my mom, kids and grandkids here- where we were welcomed by a cheery server. We ordered biscuits and gravy, omelets (which are only 9.99 for as many ingredients as I wanted) pancakes, and my grandsons ordered burgers. We like a restaurant where you can order breakfast or lunch all day long. Even the coffee was superb. This is our definitely our new Joynt!!

Gluten Free pancakes and bread!! They don't say it on their new menu, but they have it. Had the pancakes as a side since they are hard to come by. Even without the gluten free, meal was great. Breakfast is usually easy, but good breakfast like this is harder to come by. Cute place to boot. A little hard to find because it is a large center, but glad I did.

We are visiting Phoenix, Az. On our way to the Ben Avery Shooting Facility we wanted breakfast, searching online for a good place to relax and enjoy our first meal in Phoenix. Yelp was a BIG help. The Breakfast Joynt was just off 101 N It was the perfect choice. The food was very good, California Benedict was delicious, not to mention the generous serving of pancakes served with eggs bacon and hash browns. I will have another breakfast at the "Joynt"

My husband and I eat breakfast out more often than any other meal so when we saw this little restaurant we decided to try it. So glad we did. Husband had the eggs Benedict and the hollandaise was wonderful. I had the Swedish pancakes with lingonberries which were perfect. Think we just found our new favorite breakfast place.
(5)
Rob Y.
Glad they moved closer to our home. Food is always good and service even better. Great value for the portion sizes. I agree with the other reviewer that the pancakes need some improvement, but my kids love their chocolate chip version. Nice people with a friendly atmosphere. We will be back.

I was acquainted with The Breakfast Joynt after using them for a catering event. WOW is all I can say! Dave is wonderful to work with as far as catering and the food was out of this world. It was so good that I meet up with friends twice a month and we meet here for breakfast. The food is great, the service is out of this world, and Dave and Sue are the nicest people ever. I high recommend this place to everyone! Not only to eat, but for catering as well!

Debbie B.
The spelling is The Breakfast Joynt.... it is located next to Flemings on Pima Road. Our first and only visit was Saturday morning around 9AM. Maybe we have high expecations but when you go to a restaurant for breakfast the first thing that should happen is either someone brings coffee or asks how many would like coffee.... we waited 5 minutes and no one came to our table or acknowleged us at all.... so we left. The tables were approximately one third occupied and we saw plenty of waiters/waitresses.... apparently we were invisable. Even Denny's knows the #1 breakfast rule..... bring coffee.

Jake J.
I was amazed by everything. I got the omelette, which was huge, fluffy, and you could put as many items in it as you wanted...no extra charge. It also came with Hash browns and two huge pancakes. I was stuffed and it all was cooked perfectly as tasted wonderful. This will be my new Breakfast place for sure! They have so much to offer, it's a must if you are close by. Try it out!

Erich B.
Great, really great breakfast place. We have come many time since they opened but have recently been twice in a week. My wife's loves the eggs bunny. She says they are 4.5/5. I usually go low carb and they have this great dish that is eggs ham off the bone bacon and green peppers called the benniebowl. I skip the potatoes and add han chilli. 5/5! Coffee is good not great however but since I don't drink it np for me. The place was packed on Sat at 10am but we sat at the bar and had our food in like 5 minutes after ordering. They really know what they are doing here. Service was amazing. 5/5! We will return often!

When I think of the perfect breakfast I think of The Breakfast Joynt. Truley the best omelettes I've ever had (and I'm not a bad cook myself). I can add chicken, avocado, unlimited veggies and it's all the same price?! REALLY what restaurant does this? They will acomadate any requests to modify my meals from adding broccoli on the side or if I just want a piece of chicken on a plate that day (I'm a health nut, sorry). Friendly staff and service, and the owner is always there to make sure you meal is perfect. I'm always sure to take my friends and family there when they are in town. Tasty food , fast and on budget. My regular spot for life!

Rick G.
The service here is excellent. Prompt. Courteous. Helpful. The restaurant is clean. And the food was downright tasty!! I arrived with a group of 18. The servers were so friendly and fast. I ordered the southwest biscuits and gravy with a side of bacon. It was delicious. The syrup was offered warm to the pancake/waffle orders.

Small place but breakfast was quick and tasted great. We were in a small hurry and were in and out of there in around 15 minutes. Would definitely eat there again when in the area. Staff was friendly and everything appeared to be clean.

I really enjoyed this place, clean, friendly attentive staff, our waiter Andrew was awesome. He never let our coffee get under half full. I had the Crabby Benny which was probably one of the best breakfast dishes I ever had! My wife had the whole Grain Pancakes that where extremely flavorful. The owner's Mom works the place and makes you desk like ur family. We're in for SuperBowl staying at Inlaws I'm here for another week and I will def return!! 6 star place for breakfast

Great breakfast. We hit it early on Sunday morning right as they opened. Great selection. I had the Bruce's Bowl and my wife had the chocolate chip waffles. Both were very good. The Bruce's Bowl came with a side of pancakes that was too much. I sample them, good, but didn't put a dent in the stack. Loved the squirt bottle for syrup. Less mess. Side of bacon was also two thumbs up!

Love this place. My only complaint is that it gets so busy on the weekends. This is a good place to start your day. Portions are large and food is awesome. My favorite is the basic breakfast with the ham. The ham is thick cut off the bone and is great. I have also tired the breakfast bowl and the California Benedict and both were delicious. The staff is friendly and it doesn't take too many visits before they get to recognize you and and treat you like a regular.

D'Lish !! And totally fresh ! It's more than a breakfast Joynt. This place rocks for lunch I tried the Chicken avocado club turned into a salad the chicken was very lean , cooked perfectly and juicy. I'm a ranch fanatic so was kinda disappointed when I tried it :( not authentic at all tasted like a little dipping sauce from a fast food joint. The ambience was delightful very cozy I will most def be back

Takuya K.
So the newly relocated Joynt has opened in the DC ranch market colony next to Flemmings on the Safeway side of the center. The interior is brand sparking new, the teal booths gave a pop of color to the room and it was nice to feel like some of the first customers to sit in the restaurant. Even the table's matte finish was awesome to the touch, not the usual greasy sliminess of older establishments. Also, the counter seating is ample and easy for those solo wanderers to swing through for a bottomless cup of joe or breakfast burrito. Hubby ordered the chocolate chip crepes, not hoping that they would be anything he'd find on Takeshita Dori back in Tokes, but praying that the sweetness factor wouldn't have him jumping off the wall either. It came as 3 crepes which were more like thin pancakes, and indeed a bit over sweetened so a word of caution, you may need to order a side of savory for this one. I always try to keep my order simple and aren't the simple foods that are the most satisfying. My two egg breakfast was also delivered promptly without much wait and I'm glad I went with the waitress' suggestion of ham off the bone rather than bacon or sausage. 3 stars overall but the additional star for the yummy perfectly cooked crispy hash browns!! Spuds makes or breaks the first meal of the day for me, and if you get over or undercooked I'm never coming back, so I was very happy with TBJ today and will be back soon.

The breakfast Joint is in an amazing location. For years there has been a void in North Scittsdale for Breakfast food restaurants. It's hard to not do at least a decent breakfast and the Joint dose a really good one. The wait can be an issue. The people are super friendly and the place is clean!! Great neighborhood spot!!
(4)
Jon W.
What an amazing atmosphere... Tough to find a good all round breakfast joint in all of Arizona let alone on this mountain... The Breakfast Joynt has it all... For starters great coffee and fresh squeezed orange juice... I tried the French toast with Captain Crunch cereal on the outside.... Ummmm the bomb! Scrambled eggs were perfect and the whole toast tasted homemade... I don't think anything in this place could be bad... Last but not least the place is immaculate... Also seems like a family owned place that is HANDS ON and it shows! Definitely going to be my regular spot... (Haven't tried it for lunch yet, but definitely will real soon!)

Gina J.
This is a great breakfast spot filled with all the locals. It's small, so make sure to get in early. I had the Basic Breakfast: 2 pancakes, 2 eggs, sausage and hash browns for $8.99. Not a bad deal for all that food. The portions are large, so make sure to bring your appetite. Their only downfall: the coffee isn't very good.

Jen M.
I came here because of the reviews on yelp. It was not disappointing. We came early on Sunday morning, I figured anytime after 9 and we would have to wait. I was right. We were seated right away. Our waiter was wonderful and very attentive. I want to say his name was Chase...don't know if that's the way he spells it. Anyway, he is what every waiter should aspire to be like. Perfect customer service. At the end of our meal a gentleman that looked like the chef came to our table to take our dishes and ask how our meal was. I asked if he was the chef, he is as well as the owner. So NICE!!!!! We live in the neighborhood and this will definitely be our breakfast spot from now on.

Robbie G.
When we headed to this location they were packed! They are obviously a local favorite. We were able to secure seats at the bar, which we enjoy since you can always watch all the action from here and see how things work. The country fried chicken is amazing! Our waitress was okay, she kept on top of things, but seemed to be overwhelmed with how busy it was, which was fine. The down sides to this place are the parking and how busy it can get. But if you are willing to walk a bit and hang out for good food that's worth a little wait - head out here!

Food was mediocre. We had breakfast; waffles, eggs, bacon. Nothing outstanding about the meal. Coffee was cold, had to wait for a place setting. The service was horrible, staff couldn't care less. Absolutely NOT worth a repeat visit.

(skip to second paragraph if you don't want our background story on this place)... Having moved to DC ranch recently, I was very excited that we could literally walk to the many restaurants that are on Market St. That being said, I was not a fan of the only other previously available breakfast place. Then I heard Breakfast Joynt was coming and my expectations were kind of blah based off my experience of their old location (more due to service rather than food, which was excellent). So, for the last two Sunday mornings in a row, my wife and I have loaded our son in his stroller and taken the nice walk through our beautiful neighborhood and gone here to give it a good try. Both times I have been blow away! My basis for a great review is always based on the restaurant living up to expectations, in this case providing great, filling, comforting breakfast food. I was not disappointed. Their menu offers all the variety of a great breakfast place, and they execute very well, especially for having just opened. I had eggs Benedict the first time that was perfectly cooked (I like that they use bacon and avocado on one of their versions), and then I had the chicken fried chicken with eggs and gravy, which was out of this world good. Haven't delved into their healthier options yet, but sunday breakfast is kind of my cheat meal every week, so i don't care. Overall, I wish this place the best of luck and I hope that they take the feedback given in their one negative review to heart, as I think the issue raised is useful to address, even though my experience there was totally different. I love having this place close to home.

Tried the new Breakfast Joynt for the first time this morning and were disappointed. Breakfasts at the old place were good. Not so here. My wife ordered her eggs basted medium, with the whites completely cooked. She got eggs with a lot of the white still runny (slimy to me). When told, the waitress tried explanations (excuses) like, what choices she had when putting the order in the computer - even tho the kitchen was steps away. We asked that she tell the cook as she took the plate, and when she picked up the check she said she had told him. That was the end of it. Nobody cared. That hurts more than a bad breakfast. The bacon was tough too, but that happens. DC MarketPlace needed a good breakfast restaurant, but as far as we're concerned, this isn't it.
I first discovered this place years ago when they were on Northsight.....LOVE IT now that they are on Market Street in DC Ranch...right next to Flemings and a short walk from home (yahoo). Each time I bring a guest here, it becomes their new "favorite breakfast joynt" in North Scottsdale. It is possible I come here too often because I love their "Dog Friendly Patio" in the cooler months. I cannot count the times I have bumped into friends there too... My favorites are the Breakfast Burrito...when I am super hungry after an early morning hike/run the Breakfast Fried Chicken with French toast side hits the spot...and i do not have to eat again for days...ha ha. Crepes awesome...Eggs Benedict ruled too. Service is typically VERY friendly and fast...not perfect of course depending how busy or the person working my table. I have learned not to judge a restaurant to harshly on one employees performance...especially when nearly ALL my experiences here were great!! Picture of the patio would be helpful....

It's located in the back of the Market Street center next to Flemings. I bought the breakfast fried chicken w/ 2 pancakes and an orange juice and thought it was pretty good. I give this place a 4/5 stars. Service was great - always asking if the food was okay or if we needed anything else.

I have been here a few times now and every time there is usually a 15 minute (or longer wait). This place is popular! Once the wait was so long (and I was so hangry) that we had to go somewhere else for brunch. That isn't the usual since most of the time we've been seated within 15 minutes. The location is great and there is plenty of parking. They have a nice patio but no permanent overhang - just a few umbrellas. This isn't very beneficial when it's raining (no one can sit outside) or when it's too sunny (not enough shade). This can be overlooked since most folks don't want to sit outside during the summer, but otherwise it's something they could improve on. The menu consists of regular breakfast fare - pancakes, omelets, biscuits and gravy, etc. The prices are pretty inexpensive, especially for the amount of food you get. Most items come with hash browns and the option of toast or pancakes. I'm a sucker for pancakes and they are really fluffy here. My first experience here I ordered pancakes with scrambled eggs and bacon. I requested my pancakes to be blueberry and they were delicious. The next time I ordered biscuits and gravy with over-medium eggs. The gravy is fantastic here. (My husband has ordered chicken fried steak several times and he can attest how good the gravy is.) A third visit I ordered an omelet. As for toppings, you can order your omelet with all the toppings you want. (I chose ham, mushrooms, and cheese but the options are pretty limitless.) In addition to the regular menu, every week they have a special. One visit my husband ordered the special - which was southwestern biscuits and gravy. This time the gravy was spicy with jalapenos. It was different but I much prefer their regular gravy. As for drinks, they have pretty good coffee. Overall, this is a great breakfast spot that I have shared with both family and friends. If you are in the neighborhood or up for an adventure, I'd definitely recommend checking it out.

We decided to stop in here on a Saturday morning because we had an hour to kill before the furniture store opened. We got there at about 9am and were promptly seated. We looked at the menu and I love how the Benedicts you can order a 1/2 order! This is perfect! I had the 1/2 order of the Benedict (traditional) and my boyfriend had the strawberry crepes. Both were great! Service was also great. We ordered, ate and paid and walked out at 9:20! LOL We didn't feel rushed in the slightest but now we had to figure out how to waste 40 more minutes! LOL If you are up in the DC Ranch area this little spot is a must try!

We had a great breakfast here. It's a little hard to find in the shopping center it is in, look for the sign across the street from the cat statues. I had the chocolate chip crepes, very good. Service was great. We had to wait about 30 minutes for a table (9am on a Saturday).

Great option for breakfast/brunch in the DC Ranch area. Lots of great options to appeal to the picky or selective eater. One of the few places in north Scottsdale, so come the weekends, it can get busy with a good wait. Suggestion, use that time to get some family & friend pictures on the property as its a popular spot for photographers!

What a great place for breakfast! The hostess immediately greeted me at the door. She was so cute and polite! I was sat at a comfy booth and promptly greeted by a server. I ordered the breakfast burrito which was absolutely delicious. Our food was quickly prepared and it seemed like a matter of seconds before it arrived at our table. Great service. Great food. Great atmosphere. I will definitely recommend this place to family and friends.

Very nice place. As their name implies they have bfast open till close. But they also have lunch too! Burgers, wraps, sandwiches etc. we had a late breakfast around 12:30. I had chocolate chip pancakes, she had Irish Benedict. Both were very good. Fast, friendly service. Food tasted fresh and was served hot. I had a glass of milk, and it was huge and ice cold. Just the way I like it! Will go back.

The service is not bad but you need to make sure to repeat requests such as, can I have milk for my coffee, or they forget the first few times. The food is......... Ok. It's trying to be trendy and it's decor sort of does but the food does not. The ham off the bone is either delicious or seems almost raw. It's totally hit or miss. The eggs are ok. The pancakes steer clear of they are dryer then the desert we live in. It's not cheap so I can't play that up and I'm always shocked by how crowded it is. For the better option I'd head to Herb Box next door.

5 for everything except their tea. We've eaten here at least 18 times since the week they opened. We know the owners and we have come to depend on the place for breakfast after 11 on a Saturday. I am a tea drinker and often have. My tea in a "to-go" cup just to brew it in a quantity that will maximize the low-end brand bag. Similarly, my coffee-drinking friends pronounce the brew "fair." We're it not for this important breakfast staple fumble, I'd give five stars. The Swedish pancakes. Sub them for your carb! They help make it happen; you'll be so glad you did. The place really caught on lately. Locals are swarming it, so prepare to wait. Park around back in the Safeway lot; skip Market Street. Bacon isn't that thick - sausage is a better protein option, I think. Eggs and omelets are really good and never undercooked, which I praise the kitchen for. Good water glasses too - stay hydrated!

Great service and food is always yummy. Wide variety of breakfast items. Great omelettes. Worth the wait.awesome neighborhood find.

I love the entire shopping center very cute and inviting and this place was no exception; adorable. The espresso was pretty good, not the very best, but I would get again. I tried the irish benny, but wish I had gotten something else. Most of the components on the benny were pretty good, but the corned beef hash tasted like it was your typical canned variety. So next time I would get something else altogether or just a different type of benedict; luckily they have a large variety!!! My friend had chicken fried steak and was happy with his choice. He said it tasted freshly made. I will definitely go back again

This is a much nicer shopping center than their old location down on Northsight behind Kohl's. Things started off on the wrong foot as it took awhile to be greeted by our server, and when she finally greeted us it was someone who had been walking back and forth past our table several times (yes, some of us notice that sort of thing). It wasn't terribly busy. We ordered a good variety of items and all were rather average diner breakfast food that you can find anywhere, but perhaps without the same price tag and fancy shopping area. Pancakes were the biggest disappointment as they were really tough in texture and quite laborious to chew unless they were heavily saturated with syrup. Also, hash browns had a sort of dirty oil taste. Eggs were fine, omelet was ok, but it is odd that the cheese omelet is $6.99 but adding items from the long list of omelet ingredients bump it up to $9.99, if memory is correct. For 50% more in price I would have thought they would load it up, but a few of the added ingredients were quite sparse in the omelet. Orange juice was excellent. Coffee was forgettable. Didn't have any of the meats, but the menu repeatedly tells customers that their meats just fall right off the bones. There aren't a lot of full service breakfast restaurants in the nearby area.

Very disappointed! I am giving a 2-star rating only because my wife enjoyed her breakfast. I ordered "the basic" which consisted of eggs, hash browns, ham , and pancakes. The eggs and hash browns were good and hot. The ham was very dry. The pancakes provided a first for me. These were the first pancakes that I ever had to use a knife to cut. The were luke warm at best and so tough that I literally had to use my knife to cut a bite to eat. We will probably go back and give them a second chance as my wife said her meal was very good. I hope it will not be a mistake.

OK, so its hard to screw up Breakfast, but it is also hard to make it stand out........ Both times we have been here, we have been pleasantly surprised!! I had the Lump Crab meat Benedict and it was more than ordinary, and I got the Sweet Potato Fries instead of Hash Browns. My father in law had the Swedish pancakes because he has been to Sweden multiple times and said they were just as good as being there!! LOL!! Next time we are looking forward to going for lunch (they are open until 2)......

In DC Ranch. Cool breakfast place!
(5)Patrick O.
When i arrived I was excited because this place is packed!! However, I left feeling like the food quality and taste was similar to Denny's. This is a great place to cure a hangover but not the kind of place to go if you like a healthy breakfast. I typically go to Tryst in dessert ridge. Its more organic and fresh. This place is busy though so to each their own!
(2)Aaron G.
Sat outside at our table for about 20 minutes as servers walked past us over and over. Finally flagged one down and the look on his face was like "Oh, didn't see you there" as if we magically became corporeal. Granted I came on a Sunday around 11am, but 20 minutes without even being acknowledged really grinds my gears. The food was OK but nothing special. Plenty of better breakfast places around.
(2)Kim K.
This place is the bomb!! Came here for lunch because we wanted breakfast. We were seated right away and our server Alex S. was awesome! He was attentive, friendly and answered our questions. My husband ordered the omelette and it was really really good. I'm not sure what they did but it was probably the best omelette I've ever tasted. I had the Irish Benny and that was fabulous too. The hash was homemade and not that canned stuff and the hash browns were crisp and not a greasy mess. We will definitely be back!!!!
(5)Donna H.
All the reviews focus on breakfast but I also love their lunch. Where else can you get tater tots? The patty melt is perfect and just like breakfast, all are generous portions with great service.
(5)Dawn P.
I have been following Dave, the owner of the Breakfast Joynt. For YEARS!!! The other location was nice, nothing compared to the location now. The reviews that are negative, are a little harsh. The food is always spot on, Richard is the man to wait on you. Try and correct the problem before you give this Restaurant negative reviews. Everyone has an off day, that includes all of you who gave the horrible reviews. Signed Loyal customers.
(5)Pamela R.
This family run breakfast spot is my husband and 2 year olds favorite place. Very friendly staff. We go every weekend. I love the French toast.
(5)Tom M.
Honestly I don't know where all these great reviews come from. I took my family here for breakfast and the service was okay and the food was average. I think you're really paying for the ambience of the area. I would say if you're starving and you want some breakfast this will do but if you're looking for excellent food you might want to keep driving. I ordered a breakfast burrito and my burrito bread was soggy and the contents were Luke warm as if they had just been microwaved. My wife's pancakes weren't much better. I would say this place is at most average.
(3)Liisa P.
Best in the North Valley! Gluten Free offerings too. Go early or pay the price in wait time. The Basic and omelets offer the most bang for buck.
(5)Mia M.
What a nice little breakfast joint! Chase, our server, was very friendly and attentive to me and the rest of his customers. Mom had the jalapeno chicken soup, loved it! I had the jalapeno chicken club, loved it! Only disappointment, the jalapeno wasn't cooked, just cut up and placed on the sandwich. Other than that, loved it! I know, picky. Planning on bringing the kids :)
(4)Michael T.
No extra charge for egg whites! Great new location for them. A little hard to find -- if you see Flemings, you'll see the Joynt, which is right next to it. Great egg dishes, and they have steel cut oatmeal, which is what I make at home. The only negative about the restaurant is that it's a bit small. Nice outdoor seating though, so if the weather is good, you'll have some great seats
(4)A B.
Excellent spot - gets busy quickly so get there early. The staff is very friendly and the food is great and made fresh and delivered to the table fast. Had the California eggs benedict with house made hollandaise and it was very tasty. Prices are very reasonable and breakfast for two came out to $ 26.00. The breakfast joynt also has great patio seating with misters.
(4)Dallas N.
Great service, an incredible patio and good breakfast food. What more could you possibly want in a haunt? Sitting outside in December is just spectacular.
(5)Rick H.
We picked this location because it sounded good and it was on the way to a spring training game. What a great choice. We sat at the bar, which was pretty comfortable. The restaurant was a little busy and the server warned us the food is a little backed up and it might be a little longer. That is always appreciated. She kept our water glasses and coffee mugs full. We both selected the Eggs Benedict with ham. The ham made the dish. The english muffins were toasted and crisp, the ham was thick and fantastic, the hollandaise sauce was very good and the hash browns were crispy and hot. Did I say the coffee was good too. Our server, Gina, was very good and attentive. Overall we felt this was one of our best meals over the 4 days in Scottsdale.
(4)Scott P.
Great breakfast and excellent service. Simple, clean and comfortable. Very good coffee too.
(5)Nichole L.
First time to the place and we had amazing food! The service was friendly and the place was very clean. If you like spicy food, you need to try the Southwest Gravy. My son had the crepes. I don't like sweets and thought they were amazing! I had Bruce's bowl. You like breakfast meats, then this for you! Bacon, sausage, off the bone ham and if course some eggs and hasbrowns! Not for the faint of heart. You MUST add the pork green chile too. Can't wait to go back and try something else!
(5)Chukki S.
Meh. I think this place is overrated, overpriced and overhyped. Just my opinion. I ordered the chicken and waffles. It was pretty bland overall, although the siracha syrup was really good. It honestly didn't seem much different than something I could probably make at home. I guess I'm spoiled with LoLo's Chicken and Waffles and had high expectations. The iced tea wasn't very good, tasted a bit bitter. For the wait (about 30 minutes to get seated) and the price it just wasn't worth it for me. Service was adequate. For me I'd rather just eat at a Waffle House. Faster, cheaper, and tastier in my opinion. It looks like some people really enjoy this place though so try it out for yourself.
(2)Bruce D.
Worth the 45min drive. Need one in the west valley. Great eggs - usually think eggs are eggs but scrambled eggs are big, fluffy and tasty. And food comes out really fast.
(5)Alex C.
I've eaten here 5 times and the service has been friendly and prompt. Food is consistently good at breakfast. This is my first lunch meal. Also good but I think breakfast is better. (Hence the name!). Strongly recommended!
(5)Natalie D.
Breakfast around 10a on a Sunday. Not overly crowded. Two of us were able to be seated right away. The service was very friendly. I like the 9.99 omelet with all-you-want fillings and no up charge for egg whites. So that's what I got. Comes with shredded potatoes and toast or pancakes. I ordered pancakes. I must have sipped half a carafe of coffee waiting on my food. I swear it took 35m for two identical orders! Waaaaayyyy too long!! The omelet and potatoes were tasty, but the pancakes were yuck!!! The texture was God awful...thick, rubbery & chewy and the syrup is equally gross. I think I had 3 bites and was quickly over them! Next time I'll stick with eggs/bacon/toast!
(3)Don S.
Breakfast Joynt is a great locals place. It is a little hard to find, but make sure you find it!! Breakfast is served all the time they are open Everyone on the staff is friendly. The owner, David, is usually around and he obviously appreciates the bus7. BTW, the food is always great. They have good specials weekdays. This is definitely a keeper! .
(5)Brendan D.
Wonderful food & service!! Hash browns are delicious and so are the waffles :). I wasn't too impressed by the coffee however but there's always Starbucks!
(5)Tony C.
Really loved it. Had to wait a bit for a table, but that's not a problem. Food great, and really friendly, smiling wait-staff. Definitely recommend for breakfast!
(4)Duane S.
Im not a huge fan of biscuits and gravy but I decided to try it here because I heard they were good. AH-MAY-ZING!!! Hot fluffy biscuits with sasauge gravy with warm golden hash browns and an egg cooked to your liking. If biscuits arent your favorite thing, try it any way. You wont regret it! Oh and my moms eggs benedict was delicious as well!
(5)Kevin G.
Love this place. The menu has a huge amount of options from pancakes and omelettes to lunch options and they even have delicious healthy options! Service is always good and I've never had an issue and restaurant is always clean. Highly recommend!!
(5)Art R.
Located up in North Scottsdale, it holds it own with other great breakfast places in the valley. I loved the red velvet waffle. It's dessert and breakfast all rolled into one. They have a omelette where you can add everything including the breakfast sink for one price. Service was exceptional from the friendly hostess to the waiter.
(5)Jordan H.
Pretty hidden but worth the search... Right next to the steak house.... The basic is delicious, hash browns were a little burn but the service was great and friendly with a smile... Definitely need to check it out
(4)Mike C.
Decided to give this place a try this morning after we found it on yelp. Very good food! They offer everything from build your own omelets, to different types of French toast and pancakes to crepes and several eggs Benedict to choose from. But the highlight was the biscuits and gravy. The gravy was excellent and the biscuits were soft and fluffy. One of the best ones I've ever had. Definitely give this place a try if you're looking for a good breakfast.
(5)Naceem P.
The place gets very loud. Lots of family's come in from the DC Ranch area. But the food is good. I had the California Eggs Benedict which was excellent & my husband had biscuits & gravy and that was good as well. Service is great. Once the weather cools off and we could sit outside that would be the perfect situation with this place.
(4)Todd T.
First time eating here...overall pretty good experience. Sat at the bar top, waitresses were friendly and attentive. Brought coffee right away and checked refills every 5 min which I really appreciated! Good omelette, prepared differently than I've seen before, but good tasting. Much better than the breakfast I had up the street at Market Street Kitchen. Would return here for sure to try the rest of the menu. Need to test out their patty melt...the true test for a roadside diner type of joint. Overall...a B+ on my visit.
(4)Jason H.
Great place! The food, service, and atmosphere is top notch. Dining outside here is my favorite ... Especially since they are DOG friendly. When they seated us they brought out a bowl of water for our dog too! Our favorite is the omelet and Belgian waffles!
(5)Mary B.
We really enjoyed breakfast here. Since it was a weekday after 9am it was very quiet, so the atmosphere was very relaxed. The place is clean, including the bathrooms. The food is excellent and we'll priced, and the ingredients seem to be good quality: my fruit crepes consisted of fresh strawberries and blueberries, not fruit from a can. My husband's hash brown looked like real potatoes, not stuff from a dry-mix. My only complaint is that the coffee tasted a bit watery, and could have been stronger. Finally, our waiter Richard was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive (without being annoying). Will definitely return if in the scottsdale area again.
(5)John G.
Excellent omelets and light fluffy pancakes. There are so many great breakfast places in Scottsdale. This just may be the best in N Scottsdale. The patio feels like you are dining at a mountain ski lodge.
(3)Kimberly T.
Bruce's breakfast bowl is great! Just get it! The Owner came up and asked if everything was good - that's nice customer service. It's a Mom & Pop type place and I love that!
(4)Leonard C.
my 1st visit. Breakfast was great. Had an egg white veggie omelet. Delicious. Service was good.
(4)Thomas O.
Our group of five wanted a classic American breakfast. This place delivered. We decided to eat outside on the patio , this was not a hassle for anyone. Service was great and everyone had coffee that was full at all times. I had the 2x2x2 which was there 2 pancakes 2 eggs and 2 bacon . Fluffy pancakes what more can a man ask for with warm syrup. Win.
(5)Patrick H.
I've been here several times and have been happy with the food and service. I usually get the omelet breakfast which comes with your choice of ingredients, hash browns and two pancakes. It's the perfect combination of savory and sweet. I always have enough food to take home leftovers for the next day.
(4)Chrissy D.
Great location, friendly staff, good food quality although bread could be better for sandwiches. Awesome for breakfast!!!
(4)Ilya K.
Great new place for breakfast! It's a traditional American breakfast joint with great service and food! The waffles and pancakes are very airy and fluffy. The potato and corned beef hash are to die for! I would definitely recommend this place for anybody who is looking for a nice breakfast with family.
(5)Cara G.
I love the food and great location. Awesome little breakfast spot. I think the prices are good for the food you get, quality and quantity. Highly recommend the omelettes.
(5)Sue R.
Brought my mom, kids and grandkids here- where we were welcomed by a cheery server. We ordered biscuits and gravy, omelets (which are only 9.99 for as many ingredients as I wanted) pancakes, and my grandsons ordered burgers. We like a restaurant where you can order breakfast or lunch all day long. Even the coffee was superb. This is our definitely our new Joynt!!
(5)Vic L.
Beautiful Airy new location in DC Ranch in Scottsdale off Pima Rd! Nice Patio and good service from owner and waitresses ! Breakfast was the same as other location and look forward to returning on weekend !
(5)J H.
Gluten Free pancakes and bread!! They don't say it on their new menu, but they have it. Had the pancakes as a side since they are hard to come by. Even without the gluten free, meal was great. Breakfast is usually easy, but good breakfast like this is harder to come by. Cute place to boot. A little hard to find because it is a large center, but glad I did.
(5)Tess F.
We are visiting Phoenix, Az. On our way to the Ben Avery Shooting Facility we wanted breakfast, searching online for a good place to relax and enjoy our first meal in Phoenix. Yelp was a BIG help. The Breakfast Joynt was just off 101 N It was the perfect choice. The food was very good, California Benedict was delicious, not to mention the generous serving of pancakes served with eggs bacon and hash browns. I will have another breakfast at the "Joynt"
(5)Olivia L.
Great little place, highly recommend coffee and Eggs Benedict, great start to the day.
(5)Janet P.
I ordered the make your own omelet. It was large and tasty. Came with a side of hash browns and choice of toast, English muffin or pancakes. Very good coffee and the waitress kept our mugs full.
(5)S M.
Family and I enjoyed eating here. Great price and huge portions. Luckily, we got there right before it got busy. Our server was really friendly. My picky 3 year old inhaled her food. We will definitely go back. I thought it was better than Over Easy down the road.
(5)M.J. S.
Perfect Eggs Benedict and excellent Chicken Fried Steak breakfast. Service is terrific and it's a beautiful place to relax and have a delicious breakfast, brunch or lunch!
(5)Terry H.
My husband and I eat breakfast out more often than any other meal so when we saw this little restaurant we decided to try it. So glad we did. Husband had the eggs Benedict and the hollandaise was wonderful. I had the Swedish pancakes with lingonberries which were perfect. Think we just found our new favorite breakfast place.
(5)Rob Y.
Glad they moved closer to our home. Food is always good and service even better. Great value for the portion sizes. I agree with the other reviewer that the pancakes need some improvement, but my kids love their chocolate chip version. Nice people with a friendly atmosphere. We will be back.
(4)Denise E.
I was acquainted with The Breakfast Joynt after using them for a catering event. WOW is all I can say! Dave is wonderful to work with as far as catering and the food was out of this world. It was so good that I meet up with friends twice a month and we meet here for breakfast. The food is great, the service is out of this world, and Dave and Sue are the nicest people ever. I high recommend this place to everyone! Not only to eat, but for catering as well!
(5)Debbie B.
The spelling is The Breakfast Joynt.... it is located next to Flemings on Pima Road. Our first and only visit was Saturday morning around 9AM. Maybe we have high expecations but when you go to a restaurant for breakfast the first thing that should happen is either someone brings coffee or asks how many would like coffee.... we waited 5 minutes and no one came to our table or acknowleged us at all.... so we left. The tables were approximately one third occupied and we saw plenty of waiters/waitresses.... apparently we were invisable. Even Denny's knows the #1 breakfast rule..... bring coffee.
(1)Jake J.
I was amazed by everything. I got the omelette, which was huge, fluffy, and you could put as many items in it as you wanted...no extra charge. It also came with Hash browns and two huge pancakes. I was stuffed and it all was cooked perfectly as tasted wonderful. This will be my new Breakfast place for sure! They have so much to offer, it's a must if you are close by. Try it out!
(5)Erich B.
Great, really great breakfast place. We have come many time since they opened but have recently been twice in a week. My wife's loves the eggs bunny. She says they are 4.5/5. I usually go low carb and they have this great dish that is eggs ham off the bone bacon and green peppers called the benniebowl. I skip the potatoes and add han chilli. 5/5! Coffee is good not great however but since I don't drink it np for me. The place was packed on Sat at 10am but we sat at the bar and had our food in like 5 minutes after ordering. They really know what they are doing here. Service was amazing. 5/5! We will return often!
(5)TJ L.
When I think of the perfect breakfast I think of The Breakfast Joynt. Truley the best omelettes I've ever had (and I'm not a bad cook myself). I can add chicken, avocado, unlimited veggies and it's all the same price?! REALLY what restaurant does this? They will acomadate any requests to modify my meals from adding broccoli on the side or if I just want a piece of chicken on a plate that day (I'm a health nut, sorry). Friendly staff and service, and the owner is always there to make sure you meal is perfect. I'm always sure to take my friends and family there when they are in town. Tasty food , fast and on budget. My regular spot for life!
(5)Rick G.
The service here is excellent. Prompt. Courteous. Helpful. The restaurant is clean. And the food was downright tasty!! I arrived with a group of 18. The servers were so friendly and fast. I ordered the southwest biscuits and gravy with a side of bacon. It was delicious. The syrup was offered warm to the pancake/waffle orders.
(5)Erik S.
Small place but breakfast was quick and tasted great. We were in a small hurry and were in and out of there in around 15 minutes. Would definitely eat there again when in the area. Staff was friendly and everything appeared to be clean.
(4)Alfredo D.
I really enjoyed this place, clean, friendly attentive staff, our waiter Andrew was awesome. He never let our coffee get under half full. I had the Crabby Benny which was probably one of the best breakfast dishes I ever had! My wife had the whole Grain Pancakes that where extremely flavorful. The owner's Mom works the place and makes you desk like ur family. We're in for SuperBowl staying at Inlaws I'm here for another week and I will def return!! 6 star place for breakfast
(5)Crush H.
Large portions done right. Had California Benny, custom omlet, and choco chip pancakes. Service was good, food hit the spot ... No gripes about any of it.
(4)William N.
Great atmosphere and nice area. Kinda hidden a little as its on backend of shopping area. Came for the red velvet waffle and was not disapointed. Thick bacon and eas great. Scrambled eggs were fluffy. Highly recommend.
(5)Bill N.
Great breakfast. We hit it early on Sunday morning right as they opened. Great selection. I had the Bruce's Bowl and my wife had the chocolate chip waffles. Both were very good. The Bruce's Bowl came with a side of pancakes that was too much. I sample them, good, but didn't put a dent in the stack. Loved the squirt bottle for syrup. Less mess. Side of bacon was also two thumbs up!
(5)Wakashan W.
Great service, great food and an overall great experience. Owner/manager gave me complimentary Red Velvet waffle (which was delicious) for my birthday. We will definitely be back.
(5)Rob R.
Love this place. My only complaint is that it gets so busy on the weekends. This is a good place to start your day. Portions are large and food is awesome. My favorite is the basic breakfast with the ham. The ham is thick cut off the bone and is great. I have also tired the breakfast bowl and the California Benedict and both were delicious. The staff is friendly and it doesn't take too many visits before they get to recognize you and and treat you like a regular.
(5)Tonya W.
Love this place! The biscuits and gravy are fabulous, the service was great...quick and inexpensive for Scottsdale! If I didn't live so far away I would definitely go back many times
(4)Victoria S.
D'Lish !! And totally fresh ! It's more than a breakfast Joynt. This place rocks for lunch I tried the Chicken avocado club turned into a salad the chicken was very lean , cooked perfectly and juicy. I'm a ranch fanatic so was kinda disappointed when I tried it :( not authentic at all tasted like a little dipping sauce from a fast food joint. The ambience was delightful very cozy I will most def be back
(5)Takuya K.
So the newly relocated Joynt has opened in the DC ranch market colony next to Flemmings on the Safeway side of the center. The interior is brand sparking new, the teal booths gave a pop of color to the room and it was nice to feel like some of the first customers to sit in the restaurant. Even the table's matte finish was awesome to the touch, not the usual greasy sliminess of older establishments. Also, the counter seating is ample and easy for those solo wanderers to swing through for a bottomless cup of joe or breakfast burrito. Hubby ordered the chocolate chip crepes, not hoping that they would be anything he'd find on Takeshita Dori back in Tokes, but praying that the sweetness factor wouldn't have him jumping off the wall either. It came as 3 crepes which were more like thin pancakes, and indeed a bit over sweetened so a word of caution, you may need to order a side of savory for this one. I always try to keep my order simple and aren't the simple foods that are the most satisfying. My two egg breakfast was also delivered promptly without much wait and I'm glad I went with the waitress' suggestion of ham off the bone rather than bacon or sausage. 3 stars overall but the additional star for the yummy perfectly cooked crispy hash browns!! Spuds makes or breaks the first meal of the day for me, and if you get over or undercooked I'm never coming back, so I was very happy with TBJ today and will be back soon.
(4)Martin A.
The breakfast Joint is in an amazing location. For years there has been a void in North Scittsdale for Breakfast food restaurants. It's hard to not do at least a decent breakfast and the Joint dose a really good one. The wait can be an issue. The people are super friendly and the place is clean!! Great neighborhood spot!!
(4)Jon W.
What an amazing atmosphere... Tough to find a good all round breakfast joint in all of Arizona let alone on this mountain... The Breakfast Joynt has it all... For starters great coffee and fresh squeezed orange juice... I tried the French toast with Captain Crunch cereal on the outside.... Ummmm the bomb! Scrambled eggs were perfect and the whole toast tasted homemade... I don't think anything in this place could be bad... Last but not least the place is immaculate... Also seems like a family owned place that is HANDS ON and it shows! Definitely going to be my regular spot... (Haven't tried it for lunch yet, but definitely will real soon!)

This is a great breakfast spot filled with all the locals. It's small, so make sure to get in early. I had the Basic Breakfast: 2 pancakes, 2 eggs, sausage and hash browns for $8.99. Not a bad deal for all that food. The portions are large, so make sure to bring your appetite. Their only downfall: the coffee isn't very good.

I came here because of the reviews on yelp. It was not disappointing. We came early on Sunday morning, I figured anytime after 9 and we would have to wait. I was right. We were seated right away. Our waiter was wonderful and very attentive. I want to say his name was Chase...don't know if that's the way he spells it. Anyway, he is what every waiter should aspire to be like. Perfect customer service. At the end of our meal a gentleman that looked like the chef came to our table to take our dishes and ask how our meal was. I asked if he was the chef, he is as well as the owner. So NICE!!!!! We live in the neighborhood and this will definitely be our breakfast spot from now on.

When we headed to this location they were packed! They are obviously a local favorite. We were able to secure seats at the bar, which we enjoy since you can always watch all the action from here and see how things work. The country fried chicken is amazing! Our waitress was okay, she kept on top of things, but seemed to be overwhelmed with how busy it was, which was fine. The down sides to this place are the parking and how busy it can get. But if you are willing to walk a bit and hang out for good food that's worth a little wait - head out here!

Food was mediocre. We had breakfast; waffles, eggs, bacon. Nothing outstanding about the meal. Coffee was cold, had to wait for a place setting. The service was horrible, staff couldn't care less. Absolutely NOT worth a repeat visit.

(skip to second paragraph if you don't want our background story on this place)... Having moved to DC ranch recently, I was very excited that we could literally walk to the many restaurants that are on Market St. That being said, I was not a fan of the only other previously available breakfast place. Then I heard Breakfast Joynt was coming and my expectations were kind of blah based off my experience of their old location (more due to service rather than food, which was excellent). So, for the last two Sunday mornings in a row, my wife and I have loaded our son in his stroller and taken the nice walk through our beautiful neighborhood and gone here to give it a good try. Both times I have been blow away! My basis for a great review is always based on the restaurant living up to expectations, in this case providing great, filling, comforting breakfast food. I was not disappointed. Their menu offers all the variety of a great breakfast place, and they execute very well, especially for having just opened. I had eggs Benedict the first time that was perfectly cooked (I like that they use bacon and avocado on one of their versions), and then I had the chicken fried chicken with eggs and gravy, which was out of this world good. Haven't delved into their healthier options yet, but sunday breakfast is kind of my cheat meal every week, so i don't care. Overall, I wish this place the best of luck and I hope that they take the feedback given in their one negative review to heart, as I think the issue raised is useful to address, even though my experience there was totally different. I love having this place close to home.

We thought we lost our favorite breakfast spot when we saw the locked doors off Northsight Blvd. You can't begin to understand our excitement when we saw the now open sign at the new Market Place location. Yes all is right with the universe again

FABULOUS breakfast, great service! This was a real find with the best bacon I've had in a long time. We will definitely be back.

Tried the new Breakfast Joynt for the first time this morning and were disappointed. Breakfasts at the old place were good. Not so here. My wife ordered her eggs basted medium, with the whites completely cooked. She got eggs with a lot of the white still runny (slimy to me). When told, the waitress tried explanations (excuses) like, what choices she had when putting the order in the computer - even tho the kitchen was steps away. We asked that she tell the cook as she took the plate, and when she picked up the check she said she had told him. That was the end of it. Nobody cared. That hurts more than a bad breakfast. The bacon was tough too, but that happens. DC MarketPlace needed a good breakfast restaurant, but as far as we're concerned, this isn't it.

After reading the reviews I decided to try a new Breakfast spot in Scottsdale, well actually all the way out in DC Ranch. Here's how my experience went. 1. Staff - 5 Stars - Very friendly and acknowledged me right away. Also was thanked several times on my way out. 2. Ambiance - 4 Stars - The place was very clean and what you would expect, but nothing more. 3. Service - 3 Stars - Do you see a pattern forming? The server should never have brought me the burnt toast. Additionally, not her fault but the kitchen was slow as they only had 3 or 4 tables. Not busy. 4. Food - 1 Star - I ordered an Omelet with Chorizo, Green Chiles, Onions, and Cheese. What I got was something in between a soufflé and a Frittata. It was like they scrambled everything together including the cheese and then let it set. It was probably finished off in the salamander. It was not folded. It was also bland. The Hash Browns were old. You know how they get when they have been sitting on the grill too long, kind of flat and instead of crispy they were tough. As mentioned before, me toast was burnt. I am not one to complain, nor did I have the time to wait for it to be made over. I will vote with my wallet this time and I won't be back. Too far a drive to take the chance of disappointment again. If this was my place, the server has the responsibility to not accept the food from the cook if it is not up to standards. This was both the kitchen and the server. Sorry :-(

I first discovered this place years ago when they were on Northsight.....LOVE IT now that they are on Market Street in DC Ranch...right next to Flemings and a short walk from home (yahoo). Each time I bring a guest here, it becomes their new "favorite breakfast joynt" in North Scottsdale. It is possible I come here too often because I love their "Dog Friendly Patio" in the cooler months. I cannot count the times I have bumped into friends there too... My favorites are the Breakfast Burrito...when I am super hungry after an early morning hike/run the Breakfast Fried Chicken with French toast side hits the spot...and i do not have to eat again for days...ha ha. Crepes awesome...Eggs Benedict ruled too. Service is typically VERY friendly and fast...not perfect of course depending how busy or the person working my table. I have learned not to judge a restaurant to harshly on one employees performance...especially when nearly ALL my experiences here were great!! Picture of the patio would be helpful....

Poor service and bland food. There are way too many good breakfast spots in Scottsdale to waste your time here.
(1)Chris M.
Coffee is good, ingredients are wholesome, server was apathetic but service was good, they do play Fox News but we won't hold it against them.
(4)Don A.
Wow. Between here and butterfields you can't go wrong but I give the edge to breakfast joynt. Food was fantastic and the service was superb!! Huge servings and the ham off the bone is a must get!!
(5)Ms B.
Great place for breakfast!! Friendly staff, fresh food and reasonable prices! If you like Chicago or are a fan of Chicago teams especially the Bears...you will adore the decor. Highly recommended
(5)Fred M.
This has become one of my favorite places, and we have plenty of great breakfast choices in North Scottsdale. We usually opt to sit at the counter, and everything is excellent, especially the pancakes.
(5)Gordon L.
It's located in the back of the Market Street center next to Flemings. I bought the breakfast fried chicken w/ 2 pancakes and an orange juice and thought it was pretty good. I give this place a 4/5 stars. Service was great - always asking if the food was okay or if we needed anything else.

I have been here a few times now and every time there is usually a 15 minute (or longer wait). This place is popular! Once the wait was so long (and I was so hangry) that we had to go somewhere else for brunch. That isn't the usual since most of the time we've been seated within 15 minutes. The location is great and there is plenty of parking. They have a nice patio but no permanent overhang - just a few umbrellas. This isn't very beneficial when it's raining (no one can sit outside) or when it's too sunny (not enough shade). This can be overlooked since most folks don't want to sit outside during the summer, but otherwise it's something they could improve on. The menu consists of regular breakfast fare - pancakes, omelets, biscuits and gravy, etc. The prices are pretty inexpensive, especially for the amount of food you get. Most items come with hash browns and the option of toast or pancakes. I'm a sucker for pancakes and they are really fluffy here. My first experience here I ordered pancakes with scrambled eggs and bacon. I requested my pancakes to be blueberry and they were delicious. The next time I ordered biscuits and gravy with over-medium eggs. The gravy is fantastic here. (My husband has ordered chicken fried steak several times and he can attest how good the gravy is.) A third visit I ordered an omelet. As for toppings, you can order your omelet with all the toppings you want. (I chose ham, mushrooms, and cheese but the options are pretty limitless.) In addition to the regular menu, every week they have a special. One visit my husband ordered the special - which was southwestern biscuits and gravy. This time the gravy was spicy with jalapenos. It was different but I much prefer their regular gravy. As for drinks, they have pretty good coffee. Overall, this is a great breakfast spot that I have shared with both family and friends. If you are in the neighborhood or up for an adventure, I'd definitely recommend checking it out.

We decided to stop in here on a Saturday morning because we had an hour to kill before the furniture store opened. We got there at about 9am and were promptly seated. We looked at the menu and I love how the Benedicts you can order a 1/2 order! This is perfect! I had the 1/2 order of the Benedict (traditional) and my boyfriend had the strawberry crepes. Both were great! Service was also great. We ordered, ate and paid and walked out at 9:20! LOL We didn't feel rushed in the slightest but now we had to figure out how to waste 40 more minutes! LOL If you are up in the DC Ranch area this little spot is a must try!

We had a great breakfast here. It's a little hard to find in the shopping center it is in, look for the sign across the street from the cat statues. I had the chocolate chip crepes, very good. Service was great. We had to wait about 30 minutes for a table (9am on a Saturday).
(5)Omari D.
Great option for breakfast/brunch in the DC Ranch area. Lots of great options to appeal to the picky or selective eater. One of the few places in north Scottsdale, so come the weekends, it can get busy with a good wait. Suggestion, use that time to get some family & friend pictures on the property as its a popular spot for photographers!
(5)Melissa T.
What a great place for breakfast! The hostess immediately greeted me at the door. She was so cute and polite! I was sat at a comfy booth and promptly greeted by a server. I ordered the breakfast burrito which was absolutely delicious. Our food was quickly prepared and it seemed like a matter of seconds before it arrived at our table. Great service. Great food. Great atmosphere. I will definitely recommend this place to family and friends.
(5)Matt H.
Very nice place. As their name implies they have bfast open till close. But they also have lunch too! Burgers, wraps, sandwiches etc. we had a late breakfast around 12:30. I had chocolate chip pancakes, she had Irish Benedict. Both were very good. Fast, friendly service. Food tasted fresh and was served hot. I had a glass of milk, and it was huge and ice cold. Just the way I like it! Will go back.
(4)Scottsdale R.
The service is not bad but you need to make sure to repeat requests such as, can I have milk for my coffee, or they forget the first few times. The food is......... Ok. It's trying to be trendy and it's decor sort of does but the food does not. The ham off the bone is either delicious or seems almost raw. It's totally hit or miss. The eggs are ok. The pancakes steer clear of they are dryer then the desert we live in. It's not cheap so I can't play that up and I'm always shocked by how crowded it is. For the better option I'd head to Herb Box next door.

5 for everything except their tea. We've eaten here at least 18 times since the week they opened. We know the owners and we have come to depend on the place for breakfast after 11 on a Saturday. I am a tea drinker and often have. My tea in a "to-go" cup just to brew it in a quantity that will maximize the low-end brand bag. Similarly, my coffee-drinking friends pronounce the brew "fair." We're it not for this important breakfast staple fumble, I'd give five stars. The Swedish pancakes. Sub them for your carb! They help make it happen; you'll be so glad you did. The place really caught on lately. Locals are swarming it, so prepare to wait. Park around back in the Safeway lot; skip Market Street. Bacon isn't that thick - sausage is a better protein option, I think. Eggs and omelets are really good and never undercooked, which I praise the kitchen for. Good water glasses too - stay hydrated!
(4)Jennifer R.
Great service and food is always yummy. Wide variety of breakfast items. Great omelettes. Worth the wait.awesome neighborhood find.
(5)Harmoni P.
I love the entire shopping center very cute and inviting and this place was no exception; adorable. The espresso was pretty good, not the very best, but I would get again. I tried the irish benny, but wish I had gotten something else. Most of the components on the benny were pretty good, but the corned beef hash tasted like it was your typical canned variety. So next time I would get something else altogether or just a different type of benedict; luckily they have a large variety!!! My friend had chicken fried steak and was happy with his choice. He said it tasted freshly made. I will definitely go back again
(4)Albert H.
This is a much nicer shopping center than their old location down on Northsight behind Kohl's. Things started off on the wrong foot as it took awhile to be greeted by our server, and when she finally greeted us it was someone who had been walking back and forth past our table several times (yes, some of us notice that sort of thing). It wasn't terribly busy. We ordered a good variety of items and all were rather average diner breakfast food that you can find anywhere, but perhaps without the same price tag and fancy shopping area. Pancakes were the biggest disappointment as they were really tough in texture and quite laborious to chew unless they were heavily saturated with syrup. Also, hash browns had a sort of dirty oil taste. Eggs were fine, omelet was ok, but it is odd that the cheese omelet is $6.99 but adding items from the long list of omelet ingredients bump it up to $9.99, if memory is correct. For 50% more in price I would have thought they would load it up, but a few of the added ingredients were quite sparse in the omelet. Orange juice was excellent. Coffee was forgettable. Didn't have any of the meats, but the menu repeatedly tells customers that their meats just fall right off the bones. There aren't a lot of full service breakfast restaurants in the nearby area.
(3)Bob N.
Very disappointed! I am giving a 2-star rating only because my wife enjoyed her breakfast. I ordered "the basic" which consisted of eggs, hash browns, ham , and pancakes. The eggs and hash browns were good and hot. The ham was very dry. The pancakes provided a first for me. These were the first pancakes that I ever had to use a knife to cut. The were luke warm at best and so tough that I literally had to use my knife to cut a bite to eat. We will probably go back and give them a second chance as my wife said her meal was very good. I hope it will not be a mistake.
(2)Mike B.
OK, so its hard to screw up Breakfast, but it is also hard to make it stand out........ Both times we have been here, we have been pleasantly surprised!! I had the Lump Crab meat Benedict and it was more than ordinary, and I got the Sweet Potato Fries instead of Hash Browns. My father in law had the Swedish pancakes because he has been to Sweden multiple times and said they were just as good as being there!! LOL!! Next time we are looking forward to going for lunch (they are open until 2)......
