Burnt Crumbs Irvine

We’ve been to Burnt Crumbs twice now and it’s quickly becoming one of our favorite breakfast spots. The kids went straight for the famous soufflé pancakes and loved them, definitely a fun experience to watch. Our top pick is the breakfast burrito, huge and packed with flavor, and the salsas are really good. The line looked long at first but moved super fast, and the staff was friendly the entire time. Sitting outside is fun too with all the birds hanging around. Definitely a must

Great cafe that actually lives up to its hype with very kind and friendly staff. The pancakes, which they are famous for, were super delicious but my favorite was their sandwiches. They had a great selection of sandwiches, the one i got was with beef and it was one of the best sandwiches i have ever had for sure. Would definitely recommend trying their sandwiches along with their pancakes.

Solid place with super interesting souffle pancakes. I got the peach ones - despite peach in everything, the flavor wasn't overwhelming. The pancakes had a texture not unlike bao buns, but personally I preferred this texture. Great food. Ordering was at the counter, but food was brought to the table - the servers were great, but the service model isn't my favorite.

This is the 2nd time we came back for brunch because that's how good the souffle pancakes are. The first time we ordered the carne asada omelette, the strawberry souffle pancake and vietnamese coffee. This time around we changed it up and got the breakfast burrito with carne asada, souffle pancake and fruit puree lemonade. Between the omelette and burrito, I would definitely recommend the burrito! We felt that it was more flavorful but the potato that come with either option are so crispy and tasty. The souffle pancake is soft, fluffy, jiggly, eggy and tastes just the ones I had in Japan. Its soooo good! Both the vietnamese coffee and the lemonade are good choices. They said the lemonade and fruit puree is made in house. All in all, this has become 1 of our favorite brunch spots!

This place truly exceeded all expectations! From the moment we walked in, the customer service was absolutely exceptional. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. When we arrived, the line was a bit long, but it moved quickly and wasn’t a long wait at all. I was expecting the food to take a while to come out, but it was surprisingly fast. The food was outstanding. The soufflé pancakes are an absolute must-try...perfectly fluffy, light, and not overly sweet, which made them even more enjoyable. We also had the carne asada omelet and quesadilla, and both were incredibly well made, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. What made the experience even more special was meeting the owner. He was absolutely amazing, kind, and incredibly humble. You can truly feel the passion behind this place. Hoping to see Burnt Crumbs open many more thriving locations. A true gem!

We came here during a soccer tournament do the lines were very long but worth the wait. We love these pancakes!! So light and fluffy. We came here twice during our short weekend there. My only complaint is that there is not a place in the Bay Area like this! I wish they would open up a store in NorCal!!

I have been meaning to try this place for a while. I just need to try their pancakes. I came around noon on a weekday and parking was hard to find but got parking in a couple of minutes. Then I saw their menu and there is something for everyone. I went with a seasonal pancake flavor peach. I was able to find seating for one inside. They also have seating outs side. They also have restrooms inside. Got my food quickly. Would definitely recommend this place.

Finally made it here on a weekday to avoid the extensive lines. Glad I didn’t wait an hour on a weekend. Food was good and was surprised how fast it hit the table after our order. Simple dishes here but tasty. Disappointed that there are two coffee options, hot and Vietnamese, this was a miss for me and anyone who may want an espresso beverage. Enjoyed it overall but wouldn’t wait in the line for it.
