Egg It On Cafe

Mauricio made me the best iced mocha I’ve ever had in my life. He deserves a raise. Also, the Big Boy and the Chicken Fried Chicken are delicious.

My experience started off poorly. I waited over seven minutes for the waitress to acknowledge me and take my drink order. Though she claimed to have been at one of her other tables I had watched her standing at the front counter on her cell phone texting. She could not give me any recommendations and ultimately had a different waitress take my table over, which is fine. The new waitress recommended several things, including their big boy, the omelette, and their eggs Benedict, but I settled on my usual order of eggs, bacon, and a biscuit and gravy with sliced Tomatoes. I had ordered my eggs scrambled soft, and, as expected, they did not come out soft but medium. Sadly, most line cooks don’t understand the difference. The bacon is good and thick, though a little overcooked not too bad. The tomatoes are definitely sliced more of a traditional “burger” tomato versus a good breakfast friendly tomato. The biscuits and gravy present well, but I have a feeling they are going to be just “okay.” The biscuit looks good, but the gravy is your standard package gravy made with water, and they’ve tossed in a few small pieces of sausage to “make it” sausage gravy, but those of us who cook homemade gravy know that the package stuff definitely does not compare to the good homemade kind. As expected, the tomatoes were rather green, and the gravy had no taste. The biscuit itself is homemade, flaky and fluffy with a really good taste to it. Sadly, all that work is done in by the ultra bland gravy. It required a lot of pepper and salt, and even some of the pieces of bacon to try to give it any type of taste other than just nothing. I’m still on the hunt for a good every day breakfast place. So the biscuit and gravy with three scrambled eggs its sliced tomatoes came out to $13.28. A side of bacon was $4.99 with tax. All in we are looking at $19.81. Not as expensive as some places, but definitely more than others. Given the nature of the gravy, which is supposedly touted as being great, I don’t know if it was honestly worth the price. In all I would give this a 2 1/2 stars out of five… Not the best, not the worst just mediocre.

Good Service, Good Food! It is a nice clean restaurant with great service. All of their breakfast are big plates of food. Great tasting coffee and they provide a thermal carafe of it so you can keep your cup full. They have the traditional breakfast items (bacon, eggs, pancakes and waffles) and some unusual items like crepes, frittatas and their own specialty omelets. On the previous visit we had an egg white omelet stuffed with vegetables, served with fruit and an English muffin. I went for the Croissant Scramble. A combination of scrambled eggs, ham, spinach, cheese served on a croissant and covered in Hollandaise sauce. You can also select seasoned potatoes or their hash browns. The hash brown were well done, crisp and not dripping in oils or butter. On this visit we tried the Denver Omelet, and the Biscuit and Gravy. The omelet was great. The biscuit was fantastic! I think the gravy was a mix. It needed more sausage in it to give it flavor. They make their own breakfast muffins that would go well with a cup of coffee if you want a light breakfast. This time we took a couple of cranberry orange muffins home for tomorrow’s breakfast. Enjoyed Them! Egg It On is consistent in food quality and good service. A comfortable cafe to have breakfast in BA.

Great food with lots of selection and the coffee is Starbucks! Service was great and the restaurant was nice and clean . The only feed back is that I wish the avocado was on the side, but I will know for next time. Definitely will be back.

Beautifully decorated, ice water served in actual glass glasses from an ice cold carafe. Beautifully arranged plates and plenty of breakfast options all were delicious. Now open all week 7am-2pm
