BEST breakfast burritos! Made with tater tots which is an automatic plus (best type of potato for a burrito), over medium eggs, lots of protein choices I always go with sausage, bomb green salsa, cheese. Always consistently made. Fresh, quality. Highly recommend! Breakfast all day! Can't ask for more.I've tried some of their other sandwiches and they were good too. Never had anything bad here. Easy parking and parking validation, good location, good service.

I was in the Irvine area and was looking for a place to have a quick bite to eat. Someone recommended this place to so I checked it out. There's plenty of seating inside & out, is pet friendly and has a good variety of options. I had the trough bowl with bulgogi beef & sesame chicken salad. The bulgogi was so good! The salad was also good and satisfied my need for some vegetables. I'd definitely go back for the bowl. There's validation for parking so that's always a plus. I can't wait to go back when I'm in this area next.

Absolutely amazing!!! I got the breakfast burrito through uber eats with bacon, eggs, tater tots and cheese and OMG it is absolutely amazing. Perfect ratio, didn't skimp out on the bacon, tots are crispy and it was still HOT! The orange juice is absolutely fantastic. The only con I can say which doesn't affect the rating because their avocado salsa is also so GOOD! is that they forgot my ketchup and ranch lol! No biggie though! Still one of the best breakfast burrito's i've had in a long time!

Great spot! Their breakfast burrito is on point but they have much more than that. They have a bunch of different sandwiches and sides. I've tried the Philly tater tots which I expected to have a crazy cheese pull however it's more of a cheese sauce. I looked it up and it's a mornay sauce which is like an elevated béchamel which take more effort. I appreciate that. Also tried their breakfast sandwich which was good! Thick sour dough bread toasted and stuffed with all that eggy goodness. Finally their Mac and cheese was BOMB! It was so much cheese and the flavor was really good with the bacon bits and it's cheap for what you get. $4.50 and it's a meal on its own with how rich and filling the cheese is. All in all definitely a go to spot for breakfast and lunch. It is part of an office building so you have to park in the structure but it's not too far and of course, they validate.

Got a bacon breakfast burrito from the trough and it was FREAKING DELICIOUS!Crispy tots. Perfectly cooked eggs and bacon! Flavorful green salsa on the side..Bonus points because they cut the burrito in half! Orange juice was delicious too! Idk if it's freshly squeezed or not, but it sure tasted like it! I'm a fan. Nate who? Heh heh

I loved everything I ordered here. The sandwiches (caprese and Cali cowboy) were very tasty as well as the sides (chili tots and mac and cheese). It's a cute little spot that's a little hidden with other restaurants around it. The food came out pretty fast and service is good. There is a plenty of space to dine in but I see a lot of people do take out here. There is a parking lot which you can get your parking ticket validated at the restaurant. Pricing is reasonable as well.

This is now officially my favorite breakfast burrito in OC. I ordered the breakfast burrito with avocado instead of adding any meat as protein. It had a perfect ratio of crispy tots, gooey cheesy, sunny side-up eggs, and creamy avocado. I also loved that they put pico de gallo inside to cut the fat and add fresh flavors to the mix. I also ordered the caprese sandwich to eat later and although I didn't have it fresh, it was still so good. The dutch crunch roll was crispy and the melted mozzarella with the chicken breast was such a great combo. The mac and cheese was just alright though so I wouldn't order it again. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating so you can come as a group or solo to grab something to go like many people I saw did. They also validate parking so no need to worry about spending any extra money.

Food is amazing, best breakfast burrito I've had. I moved to LA and still make the drive when I'm feeling like enjoying a quality burrito for breakfast.

I've been a Nate's Korner stan for the longest time (mostly due to the wife) but they can move aside now, The Trough's breakfast burrito is definitely up there as one of my favorites now. Parking is readily available but you do need to get validated. We've been going on Friday since they offer free avocado add-on (+$1.75 normally). For the breakfast burrito, you have a multitude of toppings to pick from, but we normally get steak which pairs perfectly with the avocado. The burrito is great for sharing, because if I eat the whole thing, I know I'm food coma'ing right away. It also comes with a sauce but you can ask for ranch (no extra cost!!!) too. They also serve a bunch of delicious sandwiches and have a secret menu too if you ask. Overall, a great spot and I will definitely be back again!

This may be my favorite sandwich spot. I got the Cali Cowboy and it was an amazing sandwich. The service was great as I was helped promptly and got my food on a reasonable time. The parking is a structure, however, if you buy something you get a parking validation for 120 minutes. I would definitely come back to try the rest of the menu.Rating Breakdown:Food: 5/5Service: 4/5Parking: 5/5 (offers vallet parking)Price: 5/5
