Crema's Take
“Morning Glory's soufflé pancakes have earned their cult following—they're impossibly fluffy, beautifully plated, and worth the inevitable 45-minute wait that comes with this Little Italy institution. The kitchen takes equal care with everything from French omelets to eggs Benedict, making it one of San Diego's most dependable breakfast destinations if you're willing to plan ahead or arrive early. This is a genuine sit-down experience with full table service and a crowd that treats brunch like an event, not a quick refuel.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu. Family friendly.

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…
We came here in a large group for brunch (planned greatly in advance, so the brief wait was anticipated and staff could accommodate because they expected us). The atmosphere was memorable and unique, the space itself is truly cinematic. It’s something between a glam salon and a…
