Yolks

Don’t be intimidated by the long line around the block. Once you taste the food, you’ll understand why. After all, you can’t have the name Yolks without having mastered the dish, and it’s safe to say they’ve done just that. They also serve freshly squeezed orange juice, which is delicious on its own or as an upgrade to a mimosa!
