It’s strictly breakfast and brunch only at this Little Italy spot, which isn’t however just for the bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. The playful décor may look …

Delicious breakfast in Little Italy! It’s very popular so expect to wait for a table. We visited on a Tuesday and had a 45 minute wait. I think it was worth it, though!
We had the baked French toast and the souffle pancakes. Both were excellent! If you order the pancakes, add the berries and whipped cream. It adds so much more flavor and is worth the extra cost.
Service was friendly and helpful.

If you want a delicious breakfast spot in little Italy this is it! Been here a couple of times and never disappoints. The wait time to get a table could range from 20 to 50 minutes depending on how busy the morning is. The soufflé packages are our favorite item and I highly recommend it. We ordered soufflé pancakes along two sides; crispy hash potatoes and 3 slides of bacon and two lattes. The total was around $70. The vibes and the aesthetics of this place are unique and great, the servers are friendly. I really love this place and we make it into our breakfast spot every time we come to San Diego.

We were visiting San Diego and heard of these amazing soufflé pancakes and were lucky to get in after 1.5 hours(literally…thankfully there was farmer’s market there so we could wait for it) It was worth the wait I would say, the soufflé pancakes were amazing, we also had hot chocolate which comes in orange flavour and it was too good, i don’t like orange flavour but somehow this one was super comfy and delicious, highly recommend this hot chocolate. We also had some entrees which were good. I would suggest to make a reservation prior and check in for better viewing seats etc. loved the vibe and the place, very bougie!

My first time here and it will not be my last. I really enjoyed my time at this restaurant. My friend recommended it to me and it did not disappoint. The vibes were fun and they played all the best songs. It was right up my alley. I was solo and sat at the bar. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The decor was one of my favorites I’ve seen so far. This was located in Little Italy. As I had read this place can get packed and always has a line. I did not have to wait too long I got there early and it was during the week but when I left the line was getting long. I know why! lol I can’t wait to go back and try more of the dishes

Edit: second round. The breakfast carbonara and French toast get 10/10 for me too.
Maximalist dining at its finest. This restaurant was a trip from start to finish—in the best way possible. We came on a Friday morning and sat in the open-air part of the bar, which was delightful. From our spiked coffees to our bunch plates to the sticky bun muffin I 100 percent needed in my belly, everything was tip top. The service was spot on and the servers were very cool. My only complaint is that there are too many good things on the menu that I couldn’t try all at once—and I’m not just talking the plates you’d expect. There are some truly unique and unexpectd gems. Go check it out!!

Morning Glory is that spot. From the moment we sat down, the vibe was welcoming and fun. Linda was amazing and took the time to walk us through the menu, which made everything feel even more exciting. Bri, our server, was super friendly and kept everything flowing perfectly.
The food was next level. The Japanese soufflé pancakes were insanely fluffy and basically melted in our mouths—hands down a must-order. We paired that with peanut butter mocha lattes (so good and cozy) and a vanilla latte that was smooth and perfectly made.
The standout dish was the Chilaquiles with birria, a sunny-side-up egg, and bone marrow. So rich, flavorful, and comforting—every bite was packed with flavor and felt super satisfying.
Overall, Morning Glory just gets it: great food, great people, and an atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile… and then come right back. Already planning our next visit. Highly recommend!

Morning Glory was a great restaurant to eat at during brunch hour. We were told at 10:30 that we would have to wait an hour for a party of two when in fact we waited until 12:15.
Once inside you’re greeted with a huge opening with a beautiful dining area/bar. The atmosphere of this restaurant is very much hipster meets Wicked.
The food was worth the wait. My chicken and waffles has just the right amount of sweet and savory. Each bite of the chicken was delicious.
My wife ordered the souffle pancakes. The souffle pancakes are literally like biting into cotton candy! Airy and sweet with a kick of butteriness.
This restaurant works with Open Table so make that reservation ahead of time or you’ll be waiting longer than expected as a walk in party.

Finding the place is honestly the trickiest part. The restaurant is located on the second floor, up a flight of stairs, and the signage is not helpful at all, which can make it confusing on your first visit. Once you get upstairs though, everything quickly turns around.
The hosts were warm and welcoming, and we ended up checking in and sitting at the bar. The bar seating is a bit tight, but Bre was an absolutely amazing host and made the experience feel comfortable and enjoyable despite the limited space. Super attentive, friendly, and genuinely pleasant throughout.
The menu itself is a work of art, an intricate skull illustration surrounded by vivid pink florals and flowing handwritten accents on a black backdrop. Bold, edgy, and unforgettable.
What we ordered:
Soufflé pancakes with berries – incredibly light, fluffy, and perfectly sweet
Lobster omelette – rich, flavorful, and well executed
Crispy hash browns – golden, crunchy, and addictive
A couple of coffees and freshly squeezed orange juice ( they happened to have fresh grapefruits for juicing as well) to round it out
Overall, a fantastic brunch spot with excellent food and standout service. Clearer signage and slightly more breathing room at the bar would help, but the hospitality especially from Bre more than makes up for it. Definitely worth a visit when you’re in San Diego!!

Morning Glory was one of those places that literally everyone—locals, Uber drivers, hotel staff—told me I absolutely had to visit. I went in kind of expecting a massive wait, but I was at the bar in like five minutes. Turns out this place is actually a two-and-a-half-star Michelin spot, which I only realized when I walked in and saw the plaque on the wall.
The vibe is super cool—they’ve got hip-hop and pop playing, and I’m literally eating breakfast to Drake and Lil Wayne playing. The staff is awesome and on top of everything. I went with the soufflé pancakes, crispy scallop potatoes, and a pineapple mimosa. Honestly, everything was amazing. As someone who considers themselves a foodie, I can say this is easily one of the best breakfast spots I’ve ever been to, and I’d go back in a heartbeat. It’s that good.

They open at 8am on Saturdays and we were 4th in line at 7:30am. There’s always a long line so glad we decided to come before they even opened.
We were seated right away and our waiter Lucky made sure we had a good dining experience. No rush on ordering and he made recommendations on what to order.
The matcha latte and chai latte were both delicious. The chai latte was served in a pretty glass goblet while the matcha was served in a traditional coffee cup. We prefer the traditional cup.
The chilaquiles was delicious with crunchy tortillas piled high with salsa Verde, crema and topped with scrambled eggs. I opted not to add chorizo or birria this time. I had plenty of leftovers.
A trip to Morning Glory is not complete without their fluffy souffle pancakes. Delicious! We added the fruit compote too. It’s served with whipped cream, berries, and warm maple syrup.
The hash brown side pieces was dry and pretty plain so skip that.
Parking is an issue in Little Italy since most street parking is only for 2 hours. The paid parking lots can get pretty pricey. We found free parking on Grape and the streets north of that.
