Description

The wait is usually long for weekend brunch at Devil's Food, but at least there's plenty to look at. The place feels like the house of the friend who spends all of her free time finding knickknacks and eclectic art at local thrift shops (and who probably lives in Wash Park, just like the eatery). Diners who finally do nab a seat in the dark dining room or on the tiny back patio are treated to a balanced menu of savory and sweet breakfast items, served all day, as well as lunchtime classics after eleven.

  • 2011 | Best Eggs Benedict

    How do you make really excellent eggs Benedict Perfect each element and then combine for peak perfection. Devil's Food starts with a base of slightly sweet, lightly toasted, spongy challah bread, topping it with thick cuts of ham and a couple of quivering poached eggs, the yolks simultaneously runny and thick. All of that is smothered in the tangy, housemade, paprika-specked hollandaise, a sauce so bright, hearty and savory that we could eat it with a spoon. On the Benedict, though, it... More »

  • 2005 | Best Waffles

    Make no mistake: Devil's Food is a dangerous place firmly dedicated to helping those with a weakness for the venal wrongs of gluttony to pave their way to hell with waffles. The house serves whipped sweet butter, real maple syrup -- thin, nutty and sweet with raw sugars -- and real whipped cream with its treacherous Belgians, working from a scratch mix that results in a perfect sweet-and-sour batter. But you've been warned: Owner Gerald Shorey is the devil's own when it comes to pastry work,... More »

  • 2005 | Best Shoestrings

    French fries, home fries, seasoned fries, steak fries, crinkle-cut, waffle-cut and pommes frites: There are as many different varieties of fried potatoes as there are varieties of potatoes themselves. And the shoestring fries at Devil's Food Bakery put all others to shame. This haystack tangle of blanched and fried, super-thin-cut potato comes with the house's steak-frite plate. While fantastic, salty and crunchy on their own, the shoestrings are even better paired with the great... More »

  • 2000 | Best scones

    Although baker/owner Gerald Shorey has been making a name for himself as a pastry chef for several restaurants around town, his true talents are on display at Devil's Food, his little bake shop on South Gaylord. In the wrong hands, the humble scone can be a hockey puck from hell; when Shorey's doing the baking, it's carbs from heaven. Shorey's scones are thick but light disks of flaky dough that melt in your mouth, bundles of goodness that make for a filling breakfast, a quick lunch or an... More »

    The brunch and atmosphere at Devil's Food is great. The menu is unique just like the cute wash park neighborhood. The dishes that you think you've had like eggs benedict or oatmeal are transformed and dare I say... way tastier. Plus if it's nice out there is a small patio outside thats perfect.
