Excellent Breakfast

Best Breakfast!!

by xoxo1 at Citysearch

Broken Yolk has the best food! I had the western benedict and it was yummy...especially with the fresh squeezed Orange Juice. My friend had the No Name omelet with the fresh fruit and loved it as well. We will definitely be back!

Worst restaurant in San Diego, Dont go ther eunless you want Dennys for twice the price

by localsandiegohomeowner at Citysearch

I line up the street and have for over 10 years. The broken yolk must be the worst breakfst place I have ever been to. Eat there if you want, most people that eat there are hung over college kids that dont care if they are eating food from the gutter, it probably tastes good anyways to them. Belive me I live around the corner and wish we had a good breakfast place. the Broken yolk is not one of them. I cant wait until one day they tear that place down. go to brueggers across the street if you want barely edible food.

  • Pros: none
  • Cons: worst food place in san diego, especially breakfast
