About a month ago, my stepdaughter was in the Bands of America that took place at Lucas Oil Stadium. So, while me and the misses were in town away from volunteering and the competition. We tried our best when we had time to see what this city had to offer. We just got done shopping from the Dollar General or DGX and wanted a bite to eat before heading back to our hotel. So we stopped in this brunch restaurant called Yolk. I've seen them before, just never have went before. She ordered a breakfast burrito, and I ordered "The Flame" w/ a added egg to it w/ mixed berries on the side. It was a bit of a wait, but that wait was well worth it. See, The Flame sandwich has some heat to it, and I'm not talking about popeyes spicy chicken sandwich type heat, I'm talking about some real fire w/ that added egg and the mixed berries. I'd tell you, that sandwich was absolutely delicious! Everything paired together perfectly. I even had to break character and tell the staff that I was a local guide for google and told them how delicious that sandwich was... I mean it, if I could rate them higher than a 5, I would! Fresh Berries. I mean... if we ever are back into town for whatever reason. I have to come back to the exact location and get the exact same thing. The only downfall was that we had to walk across the way to get something to drink because their coffee machine was down. Still, not a big deal. So, I highly recommend if you can stand a real spicy breakfast sandwich, come here and order what I did. Get something to drink and sit down in the lobby and enjoy. Again, I highly recommend it!!

The pancakes are awesome! I ordered the Santa Fe Frittata and had it wrapped as a burrito! It was very tasty! On the side I ordered one pancake. My friend built her own omlette! I would definitely return. The service and food is good! The only draw back about this Brunch spot is that they do not serve alcohol. So sadly, no mimosas 😢!

Really great food in downtown Indy! The breakfast was amazing! It closes at 3pm so come before that. The coffee was really good too. I was very pleased with the food, the ambience, the wait staff and the prices aren't terrible. I think the coffee (free refills) was $3 which was a lot but my meal filled me up and was very tasty.

The atmosphere was lively buy not overwhelming. Was greeted upon entering and quickly guided to a table. Our table service from Bianca was wonderful. She had a great demeanor making you feel welcome but also offered service. Both of the meals my wife and myself ordered were wonderful. Good portions and temperature appropriate. The price is a little high to go everyday but a nice break in a daily routine.

I liked it here! Andersen was my server and he was super efficient and friendly but not overly pushy. The food here was pretty good! I HIGHLY recommend the cheese grits and the very berry (?) French toast was fairly good with a TON of food. The bacon was meh, I could have done without it. It did take a long time for our food to come out but the restaurant was fairly busy and our drinks stayed filled so we weren’t too worried about it. The kids’ Mac and cheese was a good sized portion and it was pretty tasty too. Highly recommend. There are awesome views of downtown as well.

Arrived around noon for lunch, ended up getting breakfast because duh!. As I was being seated a nice young man set down a clean glass and a yolk branded carafe, which was a nice touch. Excellent service as I was seeking out creamer for my coffee Peyton(my server) promptly offered any of several varieties and even brought them on a little plate for me. Once returned with said creamer varieties I asked her what I ask everytime I go into a new place to eat. I asked her what everyone orders, and what she gets when she is tired of eating at this place. She rattled off several options including an interesting take on chicken and waffles *spoiler alert* (they put bacon in the waffle), a country skillet complete with all the homefries this girl could ever want, and the croque madame, which is made with a "secret" batter. I opted for a moment to review, and upon her return ordered the chicken and waffles and the cinnamon roll french toast. They arrived with haste despite being in the middle of what I would call lunch rush. The chicken and waffles was an interesting dish being comprised of what I would call a spectacular example of a waffle. Perfectly crisp exterior with the inner fluffiness I have come to expect from only making it myself or the Belgian style label(and subsequent upcharge) The chicken breast was well seasoned, and only just a tad over done, but chicken is one of those things everyone is worried about undercooking, so I can't be too sad. They included a small side of sausage gravy, which was scrumptious. I wish I would have gotten a biscuit for it. I chose to top this with an overeasy egg to give myself the chance to have another tasty sauce and it did not disappoint. Leave it to these guys to be passionate about their namesake. Cinnamon roll french toast is one of those gimmicky things I like to use to try and ascertain what the quality of the "batter" is in breakfast places, and this one was on par with others I have had with a light dusting of powdered sugar and one of the three slices being doused in cream cheese icing. The icing was decadent without crossing the border into way too rich, which was a nice change of pace from most cinnamon rolls I come into contact with. This is a pretty good place to get breakfast. While it is less pretentious than first watch, it has quality of ingredients and service to rival it. Making it two steps above my local IHOP and with a similar pricetag I can't complain. I'll definitely be back.

A little expensive really good food especially for a chain. Located inside a giant office building in downtown Indianapolis. Good staff, but food took a bit to get due to it being busy and out waiter having a ton of tables. Lots of options from savory to sweet. Good drink options as well. Nice technology also allows you to check on your space in line if you are waiting for a table. Once your table is ready, they will send you a text. Nice cleam bathrooms as well.

Great food and experience. Out in Indianapolis for work and this was recommended. Really good. The server recommended their pancake of the month which was an almond joy pancake which was sweet enough without syrup. I recommend if you like eggs.

It was my first time eating at thos place and it definitely will not be my last. The servers seated me right away with a friendly smile. I ordered the chicken and waffles and can't think of single thing I would improve on. The waffles were fluffy and crispy at the same time. The chicken was covered in gravy that may have been the best i ever had (underneath the egg in the picture). I was full nearly halfway through but the flavor made me keep going until my plate was completely empty. I will recommend this place to anyone looking for a quick breakfast in the downtown area.

Great brunch spot! We went on a Sunday around 1030 and there was no wait. The wait staff was nice and attentive. The food came out quickly and to order (you can make a max of 2 substitutions per order) and everything was delicious! reasonably priced and great portion sizes. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back! Parking is just street parking and nearby garages. If your coming on a Sunday, try for street parking since it's free!

The worst part was having to decide what to eat because it all sounded so good. I had a custom egg scrambler that definitely surpassed my expectations of how good egg, swiss, and veggies could be. The breakfast mac & cheese may sound weird but it was a fantastic dish. The red velvet french toast came with fresh strawberries and it was as heavenly and as calorie count-crushing as it sounds. Only complaint would be that the black coffee is equivalent to that of a highway diner's, which is sorta nostalgic but not that good. It can get very crowded being in downtown Indy, so avoiding peak hours and especially the brunch rush would be the way to go

Best breakfast I've ever had. Peanut butter and jelly was the pancake flavor of the day and they were scrumptious! The portions were plentiful as I made three meals out of the one. Definitely worth the $$. I suggest visiting for sure!!

The food was unique and delicious! It's a little expensive (especially for a student), but with their $5 singles it's pretty affordable. I got the red velvet french toast and it was great!
