Food was good and service was proper. I didn’t care for the seating time limit of 90mins but still a great experience. Likely to return!

My experience here at Toast It IZ was great. My server was phenomenal. She was very professional and attentive. The food was amazing. The ambiance was good even though they're in the process of expanding. I will definitely return to experience more of the menu.

The restaurant was bright and clean and the vibe was really good. The food was ok, but nothing to get overly excited about. There weren’t enough options for breakfast and the menu layout left a lot to be desired. The other issue that jumped out at me is the automatic charge of 18% gratuity on all orders and 20% for parties of 4 or more. Breakfast shouldn’t cost $80 buckets for two people that didn’t even include an alcoholic beverage. Not a restaurant that I would go back to but seems to be a trend with minority owed business now that needs to be reconsidered. I think this practice of imposing such high gratuity will “price-out” the core patrons out for this locations.

They don’t allow you your full time of your reservation, was rushed with the bill within a hour sitting down. Our party couldn’t even finish their drinks and was stares down until we left the table after we paid.

I loved this restaurant, We celebrated 2 birthdays with a brunch on Saturday. We were seated immediately. We ordered the lamb chop special, gumbo and catfish with creamy grits. The peach cobbler french toast were amazing as well as the cajun deviled eggs! They are a mist try. The staff were professional, we will be back.
