Came on a Friday for brunch and was sat down immediately. Decorated for christmas! ONLY street parking or garage pay parking! We had to drive around a few blocks before finding metered parking. No parking lots! Serivce was quick. Overall, not a bad breakfast place! I thought their waffle selection was very unique. Mashed potatoes waffle ($14) - waffle is made from mashed potatoes! - very savory, crispy, not sweet at all California Breakfast Burrito ($18) - basic breakfast burrito, not the best Fried Rice Benedict ($15) - unique concept but wouldn't get again - very oily Freshly squeezed orange juice ($4.50) Cold Brew ($4.50) - orange juice was good! coffee wasn't mediocre

Great brunch food, and good for those with dietary restrictions, such as gluten-free (celiac). The server was friendly, and helpful particularly with answering questions for their menu for gluten-free items. They have a large indoor seating area, with a good atmosphere, lots of throwback music playing in the background. All their waffles are gluten-free, which was great! I tried the orange thyme waffle, and the seasonal vegetable omelet with gluten-free bread and potatoes. I tend to favor savory things for brunch, but the orange thyme waffle was incredible, cooked to perfection, and wonderfully accompanied with the thyme syrup and the whipped mascarpone. I would definitely get this again. The vegetable omelet was fresh. The gluten-free toast was appreciated, but not the best I've had. Overall, good experience here and would return!

I'm so glad I found this cute brunch place! Really enjoyed the food and my overall experience here. I tend to order savory foods for breakfast but I was also really curious about the waffles, so I compromised by ordering the mashed potato waffles. It was sooo good, I was very happy with my decision. I think the portion size was perfect too. I ended up bringing home some leftovers. Of note, as I ate more of the waffle, I realized that it was really salty for me. In terms of logistics, on a Sunday morning (around 10 AM), the wait was about 20 minutes. We had to find street parking but on Sundays, parking is free which made things easier.

Absolutely incredible breakfast and restaurant with friends or even solo! I've been a huge fan of the owner since he first opened Fig Tree Cafe in Pacific Beach and every spot he has been involved with is truly magical. The flavors and unique menu items that give a twist on common breakfast fare makes enjoyable exploration and it's difficult NOT to steal bites from other friend's meals when you all sample various items. HIGHLY recommend the flights of french toast or waffles to sample some of the latest creations. Service has always been excellent and I adore the decor of the location and happy Cali vibes it exudes!

Gaslamp Breakfast Company is a vibe! It is brunch everyday with your favorite freshly squeezed juice or mimosa at the ready. This historic building is showcased with eclectic decor and tables and chairs that gives you the impression that they have been catering to guests for decades. We dined more than once during our stay and felt welcomed by the vaulted ceiling and smiling staff. Over our visits we tried a few different items from the generous and unique menu. They have pancake/french toast/waffle flights that solves the issue of not being able to decide on just one option. The peach French toast was a hit and the banana bread pancakes were absolutely amazing (moist and rich). With plenty of Benedict's to choose from, the fried rice Benedict was a new experience. The chilaquiles was tops too! If breakfast isn't your thing, they have other items for you and plenty of choices for vegetarians. Come and enjoy a dining experience.

I was looking for a cozy place to have a nice breakfast while it was raining and Gaslamp Breakfast Company did not disappoint! (Note: This review is from my visit in January. I am seriously behind in my reviews this year.) I sat by a window and it was really nice to just chill and look out the window. The back part of the restaurant was packed but I was facing away from it near the door, so it felt more private somehow. My server was very attentive and friendly from the get-go, and I felt right at home there. Ordered the Vegan Breakfast Sammie, which I can report was delicious. A bit messy but definitely worth it. Potatoes were really good, too. I made sure to use a bunch of their house-made ketchup and hot sauce, which I'm happy to report were fiiiirrrre. Love the neon sign inside and all the merch they have. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area!!
