The Best Breakfast-restaurants in Hillcrest

The most consistent breakfast in the city, at four locations.

Snooze is a small chain, but the San Diego kitchens run tight and the benedict flight is the best way to sample the menu. Service is quick and the waitlist moves faster than the crowd suggests.

Local tip: Order the pancake flight so you can split three styles instead of committing to one.

Enormous portions done better than the gimmick suggests.

Hash House built its name on tower-sized plates, but the farm-style cooking is solid and the fried chicken and waffles is a legitimately good dish. Go hungry.

Local tip: One order feeds two people — split it and add a side of bacon.
