    Check for hair in your food!

    When we arrived, they weren’t too busy and we were able to get seated immediately which was great. Then we don’t get any menus until at least 5minutes after being seated which was strange. Then they brought the menu and within less than 2minutes another server comes to take out orders. After we told her we just got the menu she gives us more time until we are ready to order.
    I got the blueberry matcha latte and it was literally the best matcha latte I’ve ever tried! That is the sole reason this review is getting a 2 star and not a 1 star review.
    The food however is a different story. I got the “French toasty” (French toast with berries and condensed milk, side of egg, side of bacon) and taste wise, it was okay…. Until I found a hair cooked within my french toast…nThe person at brunch with me calmed me down after pulling out a medium length thick black hair in pieces since it was cooked into the toast. Unfortunately I didn’t want to make a scene and don’t like confrontation so I just paid and left without finishing my meal.
    I do however have an image of the food before I started eating it and you can clearly see the hair cooked into and some of it sticking out it the image….
    For reference, neither of us have that short of hair or that color hair. I obviously got nauseous and still feel gross for eating almost half of the food before realizing there is hair in it.
    Price wise, in total with tip, we spent a bit over 50 dollars for 2 drinks and 2 food items.

    This is a charming place for breakfast. It’s very cute and quaint and quiet. The Vietnamese flavors came through really well. I got the hash with pulled pork and a fried egg it was divine. Full of flavor could use something pickled for balance but otherwise great. Excited to try more dishes here I can see this becoming a fav place of mine

    The Breakfast Den on South Street is an absolute gem. From the moment you walk in, the vibe is warm, welcoming, and full of personality. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and comforting...the kind of breakfast that actually makes your day better. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and everything tastes like it was made with care.

    The staff deserves a special shout-out: friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to have you there. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down to enjoy a full breakfast, the service never disappoints.

    I had the Thit Kho Hash and a chai latte and they were delicious. This is a great breakfast spot. Friendly, warm, efficient service. Great vibe/decor. I’ll definitely be back!!!

    Delicious dishes and great vegetarian options. One of my favorite breakfast spots! My go-to order is the TBD breakfast rice bowl with the crispy tofu - - the herbs and house dressing really add to the dish. The chao ga (vegan version rice porridge) and Dau Phu bowl are really good as well. Cute dining space, sunny and warm.
