Island french toast


Our Story


Johnny's First Toast isn't just a restaurant, it's a San Mateo breakfast and brunch tradition in the making. We're a classic diner with a modern twist, known for getting the basics right – fresh ingredients, generous portions, and friendly service.
 
Our dishes remind guests of Sunday mornings spent with family. From fluffy pancakes to savory omelets, our menu is full of comfort food classics made with love.
 
We've quickly become a go-to spot for locals seeking delicious, affordable breakfast and lunch options, and our new Mexican specialties are getting rave reviews!
 
Our updated menu, led by our talented Chef Christopher, features unique creations like Salmon Benedict with house-made hollandaise and crispy crepes filled with fresh fruit and Nutella.
 
Come for the food, stay for the music and warm hospitality. We're a casual, fun spot where you can catch a game, enjoy a mimosa, or simply relax with a cup of "the best coffee in town."

Johnny's First Toast was founded by a seasoned chef with a passion for bringing people together over good food. Our team is committed to providing a welcoming atmosphere and a dining experience that leaves you feeling satisfied. We're proud to be part of the San Mateo community and look forward to serving you soon.

Whether you're a regular or a first-timer, we invite you to come taste the difference at Johnny's First Toast.
