Burnt Crumbs Irvine

Colin Tran

There was something that was burnt at restaurant. It wasn't the food. That was me. My friends and I played tennis this morning with the non overcast sun shining over us. Twas only supposed to be high sixties. Sunblock, sweat and sun rays altogether makes for a strong tank top tan, darker shades of skin, and a strong appetite. Our friends gave us three options and we narrowed it to burnt crumbs. I had a gut feeling the food was gonna be good based on the cookin smoke comin out of the roof and the California giveaway of a crazy long line. We were crazy hungry, and for lack of a better word, the food that we ordered was more than enough to sate the appetite. My wife and I ordered the fresh chips (no lie the size of potatoes), the Spaghetti Grilled Cheese Sandwich, and Carne Asada Omelette. These foods were heavenly delights to have after the hard gaming. Go ahead, you won't have many ragrets :). Let's go!!

We loved the avocado toast and spicy meatballs sandwich from Burnt Crumbs. The service is fast and we love that there is a ton of outdoor seating. It’s dog friendly seating outside with some shading. Highly recommend as a brunch / lunch spot if one is near Irvine Spectrum.

The potatoes here are AMAZING. They're flavorful and a little crispy on the outside while being soft and warm on the inside. I also got a breakfast burrito which was okay compared to the potatoes however they do put potatoes on the inside so that was good. Their salsa is not spicy at all but it adds a nice extra flavor to the burrito. I would come back here just to have their potatoes again, they're very good.

Why can’t I lose weight? Because I find golden nuggets like this place!! I walked in for lunch with the expectation that I was ordering a burger. I asked the guy at the front what the place was k own for. He politely walked me through their history and are now open for breakfast, brunch and lunch. He explained the most popular breakfast sandwiches . He also spoke about the pancakes and asked, after he looked me over, if I was looking for a more “hearty” meal that the pancakes are probably too light. Then he walked through the lunch items. The grilled spaghetti cheese sandwich was very intriguing. They also have a smash burger, Nashville Hot Chicken and Fried Chicken sandwiches. I love a good Fried Chicken sandwich. I hold Fried Chicken sandwiches to a different degree. Only the few are amazing and leave me a bit speechless. This was one of them. I ordered to go and went back to my hotel. I sat outside on a slightly chilly afternoon. Without knowing what was really inside the wrapping, I laid out my drink, utensils and napkins. Then I unwrapped the sandwich. What the what? To my surprise there were mashed potatoes on the sandwich and it was on the best looking biscuit I have ever laid my eyes on!! Seriously. ❤️❤️ It went thin biscuit on the bottom, layer of mashed potatoes, perfectly fried, fried chicken and massive biscuit on top. It also comes with Honey Sriracha, a garlicky sauce and a country gravy. My favorite sauce was the Honey Sriracha. This sandwich was sooooo good you don’t need any sauce. The combination of the mashed potatoes, flavorful chicken and biscuit was literally on point and no need for anything else. The accompanying fries are fresh cut. They fell short and needed more salt. I had to use ketchup on them and I do everything possible not to use ketchup. Between the service and the food, this place is highly recommended and a definite go to for the locals. ****FYI - I am as unable to add pictures. You should see this sandwich!!!!******
