Yolks

Stopped by on our trip to Vancouver. We went before noon and it was busy so we had to wait about 20 mins but it was all worth it!
I ordered the special, the Beast Benny, which included bacon, egg, avocado, spinach and tomato on an English muffin and all topped with hollandaise sauce. It came with a side of perfectly crisped tater tots and a couple slices of fruit. It was divine. The tater tots were probably some of the best tots I've ever had. I finished that off with an oat iced latte - which was quite smooth, I might add! I was even able to get a to-go cup for the rest of my coffee when we left.
Will definitely be going by again on my next trip to Vancouver.

I did take-out through Uber eats. I am not sure i want to do that again after this experience. My food was a bit cold when it got delivered. They put the food in paper bags. Not even a container. No cutlery nor napkins are found in the bag. This needs to change.

I ordered the egg sandwich with smoked bacon and paid extra for truffle potatoes. Both were cold and soggy. The bread was soggy, and the potatoes weren't great. I expect better for how much it is. The portion of potatoes was on the scarce side, and I am very disappointed.

I was expecting better. I can not say I want to come back again based on this experience.

Best jalapeño cream chicken waffle egg Benedict I've ever had! So instead of choosing eggs Benedict or chicken waffles they combined my two favourite breakfast food into
One dish. Brilliant! Take my money. I went midday during the weekday so it was not busy at all and was seated all by myself in the corner hidden away from the rest of the people. It gave me the privacy to just eat the whole thing in peace. I think the waiter was surprised I was able to finish it all cause he asked if I needed a take out box instead of looking at my plate but saw the guilty look on my face.

OMG!!!!!!! The food was so good. We had different variation of waffles, chicken and waffles, eggs.... Everything was delicious. I wasn't a big fan of their coffee so I'll skip that on my next visit to Canada but everything else was great. Staff was extremely nice and prompt. Great seating.

This is my favourite Yolks. I'll tell you why.

The one on Broadway is a disaster because of food and service.
The one on E. Hastings....well....it's E. Hastings. Environment Matters!

The one on Davie. Stunningly bright. Smart floor plan. Modern Set up. Impressively clean and the location.....well the location can't get any better than that.

Have you ever flown first class?
Well....imagine this...you board the plane and the first cabin....is...well...First Class and you see big, bright and excited faces and smiles from the crew literally seating you. If you're in Economy....you keep walking through the doors and into Economy and that's when the smiles are slightly more tired.
You get my drift.

With Yolks Davie. The service if First Class all the way.

The menu. Great selections and Make Your Own Breakfast which I loved.
I got the Florentine Benny. The taste and flavour was all there. It just wasn't hot, barely warm. The Egg. Potatoes were both cold.

It was the same with the Make Your Own Breakfast. It had cooled off before it was served. But every single item was fresh and tasty, so the dish wasn't poor. It had just gotten cold. Nothing that would not make me wanna go back. Just a friendly note to this wonderful staff.

We're glad you're here. Welcome to the neighbourhood!

Great service and the food was amazing! Triple smoked bacon with Gouda and the portobello sandwich.

The food and service was top notch. I had the ham Bennie and the husband had the bacon Bennie. We also had mochas and beignets. Everything was perfectly cooked and flavorful. Great experience!

i have been patiently waiting for the opening of the newest yolks location on davie since it was first announced back in march. we made a point of coming here on their grand opening to support small businesses and even entertained the notion of waking up at an ungodly hour to get there in time for when the doors opened at 8:00 am. the first ten people would receive a $25 gift card and the highly coveted yolk's tote bag. alas, sleep and a costco run took precedence.

nearby street parking is available. we showed up just before 2:00 pm and the place was almost empty, save for a handful of patrons. at the other two locations, i am used to lining up and putting our names on a waitlist. this location is situated at the corner of davie and burrard, the td building, where mucho burrito used to be, and appears to be their biggest restaurant. we were greeted and given a choice of where to sit. yolks has come a long way from their humbled beginnings with their little blue trailer, serving three signature food items. the venue is bright and windows were decorated with 2d christmas characters with lights. there's a bar, booths, high tables and standard seating.

the menu looked to be similar to the other locations and we were served a complimentary beignet with caramel dipping sauce. it was warm, dense, and had a light dusting of icing sugar. we haven't been to yolks since covid and like their east hastings street location for the ambience and vibe. i ordered the fresh watermelon juice, grilled portobello mushroom eggs benny with truffle lemon potatoes for an additional $1. their famous house made spicy ketchup was smokey and complimented the soggy potatoes. my partner had the yolks smash burger with the truffle lemon potatoes and said it was bland. i forgot to ask and wonder if they still offer half orders of the eggs benny. service was friendly and they were eager to help.

the eggs benny were ordered as soft and runny, and when pierced, the yolk was a deep yellow as it slowly oozed onto the plate. the potatoes were greasy, and lacked the crispness and seasoning. overall, we were disappointed with this visit and chalk it up to grand opening issues. yolks used to be one of my favourite go to brunch spot.

Well. We've been needing a new breakfast place in the West End. There's only a handful of choices so everyone has been waiting for this to open for quite some time now. If I'm honest, it was just ok. Not bad or anything, but pretty underwhelming for the price point. The restaurant was beautiful inside, even if the corner a bit yucky outside. Our server seemed a bit checked out and forgetful, but nice enough. It could be my fault for hyping it up in my head waiting for it to open for so long but... I dunno. I'm not sure I'd go back if I'm totally honest. ‍

This place was so good I got Belgian waffles and they were probably the best waffles I ever had and my server was so nice and it was so clean there like this should be in America.
