How Josiah’s Won Sioux Falls’ Hearts
Josiah’s transformed breakfast expectations in a city hungry for quality over quantity.
When they opened their doors on the East Bank of downtown, they brought something different – house-made English muffins, fresh-baked buttermilk biscuits, and a scratch bakery that produces everything on-site daily.
Customers immediately recognized the difference between reheated restaurant fare and food crafted with genuine care. 🥐
The restaurant earned its reputation as Sioux Falls’ highest-rated coffeehouse by refusing to compromise on ingredients or preparation methods.
Their five-egg omelets became legendary for their generous portions – customers frequently mention feeding two people with one breakfast entree.
The commitment to using blackened fresh salmon, slow-roasted corned beef, and locally-sourced ingredients resonated with a community that values authenticity.
Reviews consistently praise the reasonable pricing combined with massive portions that deliver exceptional value. 💰
Their inclusive menu approach sealed the deal – offering gluten-free options, power bowls packed with nutrients, and creative vegetarian choices that appealed to health-conscious diners alongside traditional breakfast lovers.
The rustic, homey atmosphere in the historic building created the perfect backdrop for lingering over coffee and conversation.
