I love this place - I lived right near the original Broken Egg Cafe when I lived in Louisiana so I was super pumped when I learned the Charlotte area had a franchise as well. I almost always go with an omelette because you get a huge omelette, arguably some of the best home fries around, AND and english muffin. There's no way you're leaving hungry. But they also have a bunch of yummy sweet options if that's more your speed, and I swear one of these times I will try one of the benedicts or lunch options. I really don't think there is a bad option here. The prices can get up there depending on what you get but in general the items range from $9-15 which I would say isn't absurd. The service was pretty great too, so between the atmosphere, service, and food I'd say it's worth it. read more

First time here and our last. I gave 2 stars because food was delicious but service was horrible. We had Matthew as our server. It took 7-10 mins to get greeted. After getting greeting we ordered our food and drinks. When the food came we asked for more ketchup and said. " there's ketchup on your plate" like yes I see that I would like more plz and then he brought my wife and I 1 single packet. Like seriously? Very unprofessional and rude throughout service . We never got a refill on our coffee. I had to get up and ask another server for salt and pepper. The server told him and he brought it to us. He was at our table 3x throughout our meal to greet, bring our food and drop the check and even then he never cashed us out another sever did. Very disappointed. Food was amazing. read more

Great local place. Food is good and the service is great. At times waiting to get a table can be 45 min to 1hr but that's almost everywhere

This was delicious. I got the Lobster and Brie omelette and my husband got the Strawberry Poundcake French Toast. We also had coffee and a pitcher of orange mimosas. The food was amazing and the drinks were good. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to eat brunch in a laidback environment, have great waitstaff, and eat good food. You'll definitely leave satisfied. read more

I had another broken egg this weekend. This was my 3rd time at this particular location. I had the lobster brie omelette and it was delicious. It exceeded my expectation on what I thought it would taste like. To top it off the service was great and our waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu. One downfall I did have was my fiancé ordered the biscuits and gravy and it was extremely salty. Our waiter made no hassle of it and took it off the bill and all was well. I do love this place and will be back again. read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - Lobster Brie Omelet - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I am all about breakfast and brunch... I am also guilty of doing "breakfast" for dinner on occasion. Another Broken Egg has been on my radar for a while and I have had several visits. Each visit has never disappointed. I do remember this place was another breakfast place at one point, but it seems that the new owners put their own touches to the place. The wood paneling (originally just natural, stained wood) is painted with warm cozy colors. The tables are copper with wood trim and are very clean. It's almost like the place gives you a nice, grandma style hug to welcome you in. They do have a rather extensive menu, but their signature items are marked with a small broken eggshell icon. I highly recommend the shrimp and grits! Also the Benedict Oscar is super awesome. I'm a bit obsessed with poached eggs (mostly because I can't do them myself at home.... yet), but toss in some steak, asparagus, crab, and Bearnaise sauce, and you get one hell of a breakfast! The servers are super super nice and just always a treat to eat here. Probably my only complaint would be how popular the place can get so there could be a substantial wait depending on when you get there in the morning during peak breakfast weekend hours. read more

This place is way overpriced for what it is. The potatoes are absolutely gross, square overcooked tough and flavorless...it would be much better to offer shredded hash browns or the home fries cooked in a pan that are smashed together, tender with seasoning. Want too fond of my omelets either. Basic coffee is really expensive. Had to ask for another order of toast since mine got cold waiting on jam. I would rather go to a cheap diner style place for breakfast. read more

First time visiting and the food was AMAZING the drinks were also AMAZINGLY GOOD we had to make hard decisions to not order more drinks they were soooooo good!! New brunch spot for me and the girls!! Service was AWESOME too really nice waitress and helped with making selections on food and drinks! read more

I would come here just for the beignets. They are sooo good! I tried their waffles, eggs, and pancakes and was not disappointment. Their chicken for the 'chicken and waffle' dish could use a little work, however. Hope I can visit again before leaving Charlotte. read more

My guess and I arrived at the Ballantyne location at 138 PM, after leaving church in Cheraw and was told they could not seat us because they closed at 2pm. I've never eaten here and now I more than likely won't. Thanks! Drove all that way for nothing! read more

This restaurant exceeded my expectations by a lot. I got a lobster omelette and it was absolutely amazing. The waitress (Nicole) was beyond professional and had a great personality. They had an ample amount of lobster meat in the omelet. Also got biscuit and grave and the grave was one of the best I've ever had. Overall I will definitely come back. read more

I waited 45min for a to go order. Two waitresses asked my name and never returned with an update on my order. I go in and ask about my order and no answer this is unprofessional and my meal should have been compensate. Unprofessional and I will not be returning read more

9 months ago, I posted this: Called ahead to get wait time as this would be my 2nd attempt to try the brunch cuisine Another Broken Egg had to offer..1st attempt we didn't get seated due same issue, being told one wait time and upon arrival, having to wait much later. We were finally seated this 2nd go around after waiting 20 minutes when we were told 5 min wait on the phone. (We were in the parking lot) Our 1st server (yes 1st server) took our drink order and after she served them, became "too busy" to take our order, so someone else obliged us. Our food arrived luke warm. Did I mention that we were told several times that the kitchen was closing in 5 minutes frequently? This is where I grew a disdain. We arrived at 1:10pm... waited to be seated for approximately 20 mins...after being told it was a 5 min wait. Server situation took an additional 20-25 mins. Now the server has mentioned at least 4x how the restaurant closes SOON. I give every place a 5 starting out. As the visit progresses, whatever happens dictates my ratings. I allowed myself to get excited about a mediocre restaurant just by reading the menu online. NEVER DO THAT! I will not recommend this establishment to anyone. My Bloody Mary was the silver lining. So disappointed! TODAY: Better service and no wait time is what the difference was. Other than that, the lobster brie omelette tastes more like imitation crab and brie. The brie was sliced thickly this visit which overwhelmed everything else. The temperature of the food was served luke warm again. I can't seem to win with this location. I actually have given up. No more attempts to be made. read more

This place is awesome. We were originally told there would be a 30 to 35 minute wait. Well let me tell you about 6 minutes into our wait a young lady came to the front and took charge. Within 6 minutes we were seated. Our waitress was spot on. The food was excellent. Just goes to show you that 1 person can change the whole atmosphere. You also can be that change agent. Kudos to Another Broken Egg a great experience. read more

Our visit for brunch was very much below expectations. Set aside the fact the guy at the host stand and man who started as our server, but never came back after taking our orders, were very strange. We ordered chicken and waffles and the shrimp and grits. The shrimp and grits were probably four stars but the chicken and waffles were one star at best. There were four pieces of chicken which were about the size of women's finger and a waffle which was out of a box. The chicken and waffles seemed as if they were from a fast food restaurant. Go to Terrace Cafe for the same price. read more

I want to start by saying the decor and the atmosphere is amazing. The problem came in when we got to the restaurant. I joined the waitlisting on Yelp. According to Yelp I was told I would be sat by 10:05 wasn't sat by that time or 20 minutes after that time. It was guest that were behind me and my girlfriend that were sat before us. *sighs* ! When we were seated the restaurant placed us at the small table that they had. The small table made the experience not pleasant. The food was subpar. So that did not help the review as well. I would not recommend this place if you are looking to try a new brunch spot. I would recommend going to another place. read more

In Charlotte for a week. Found this restaurant on Yelp. I liked it so much, I had to visit twice! The menu selection was good. Hard to choose from. The food was amazing! Service was excellent. Such an amazing experience that when I saw Another Broken Egg in Greenville, I had to stop in. read more

I got the Floridian omelette with crab meat. It was delicious and the portion was a good size.

Loved this place ! A little pricey but the menu variety and food were the difference! The atmosphere and unique table settings add to the experience - but mainly the food- all of it was wonderful ! Great place to enjoy breakfast or lunch ! Not your average eggs & bacon joint ... Lots of wonderful unique dishes ! And by the way - their dishes were all too cute ! Loved the coffee cups ! Don't miss this place ! Two thumbs way up read more

Great time at Another Broken Egg this morning! My mom, her boyfriend, and myself decided to grab brunch following church this morning. We were able to get seated pretty quickly and were met instantly by our server, Emma. She was very polite and a great server. My mom really enjoyed the coffee, and her boyfriend got the Abe Famous Infused Mary, which he loved. I decided to get a burger, which was also tasty. I really enjoy all of the staff, especially the hostess's and manager. The other waiters are really awesome as well! I hope to return soon for another brunch! read more

My wife and I came to "another Broken egg" for the first time today. Our Server was Michele; and She was amazing and outstanding. She was truly on top of Her game, as far as service, knowledge, very friendly. I will go as far as to say that she is the reason we are coming back. It didn't hurt that the food was awesome. But when an issue came up, she handled it expeditiously and with a smile and a great attitude. We didn't have to tell her what we needed at the table because she was already on top of it. We will definitely be requesting her when we come back. Kudos to everyone working here, but especially kudos to Michele. read more

This restaurant is very good! The food taste fantastic and it's always busy so it seems like pretty much everyone agrees, my only complaint is that the staff upfront seem like they would rather be home then be there, they don't welcome you when you enter and you basically have to ask to be seated/for a pick up and they look at you like you're dumb. So that needs improvement, other than that it's a good place. read more

I wish I could have given this place 5 stars but the ordering process made me want to pull my hair out. You can not place online orders through their website at this time and they do not take orders over the phone, so you have to go in and order then wait for carry out. On the contrary the food was perfect I had no complaints! I am gluten free and dairy free so I struggle to find places to eat. This will definitely be a go to breakfast stop for me. read more

Great atmosphere! Great food! Great service! I stopped by Another Broken Egg for brunch. We sat down immediately due to using the "Waitlist" option on Yelp prior to leaving our home. We were given Beignets in the house due to this being our first time at the restaurant and they didn't disappoint. I had the Lobster Brie omelette, fruit and and English Muffin and my boyfriend has the Mardi Gras Omelette, toast and City Grits. Everything was fresh and came out quickly. The Lemon Blueberry Mimosa was great as well. I'd recommend for brunch or a quick bite. read more

This is a mixed review. As far a the quality of the food; the restaurant get 5 stars. However; the service was one of the worst I have ever experienced. Our server, Ricardo, completely ignored our table; I had to get his attention a few times to get service. Ricardo avoided eye contact several times while passing by our table. This could a training opportunity or simple not a good fit for the hospitality industry. read more

Great food! The wait can be long on the weekend but you can add your name to the list in their website. Staff is always friendly and welcoming. read more

Walked in around 11 on a Thursday morning and the place was pretty full. I think they were understaffed or something because the service was annoyingly slow. I think we saw our waiter 3 times during the entire meal. We spent more time waiting for the food and later the check than actually eating. I ordered coffee, and the mug was cute, but the coffee was very average - definitely not worth $2.69. I also never got a refill :( I ordered the Hey Lucy omelette because I saw the word avocado listed as an ingredient. It wasn't bad but could have used more filling (I tasted maybe two slices of avocado? sad.) They were pretty generous with the layer of cheese on top though. The overall portion size was great. The omelette came with toasted english muffin and potatoes. I might come back when I feel like spending $16 on subpar service and slightly above average food. read more

First impression was good. Smoked salmon Benedict was a cool concept over all decent taste but salmon alone was disappointing. If your going to serve salmon it has to be good quality. We dined outside and enjoyed mimosas. Good atmosphere. It's good, it's not toast good though. read more

I was greatly disappointed. My wife and I ordered the potatoes. They were burned. Literally. I had the broken egg sandwich/biscuit and the chicken was dry and was not seasoned. But hey, I figured sometimes cooks make mistakes. I went to the manager to politely tell her that the potatoes were burned and she kindly brought me more...of the same. The grits were good though. read more

Their food was so good we're coming back this weekend! I had the (and I can't remember the exact name) lobster egg omelet with potatoes. Everything was on point. My boyfriend got the Cinnabon French toast which was excellent as well. The andouille sausage that came with it was so good. I want to try the shrimp and grits next since it has the andouille sausage and I think it's cheesy grits too. They have a good variety of entrees on their menu which means we'll be coming back more to try the different items! read more

Amazing food! My favorite place for breakfast! I don't go there often, but when I do the service is always very welcoming!

Compared to another local breakfast restaurant (Toast), this one has much better service. The wait staff was efficient in getting us seated, providing refills on beverages, and checking back to make certain everything was okay. The food, however, was not quite as good as what I found at TOAST. I ordered the vegetable omelet and was underwhelmed by how thin and sparse it was. It was covered in goat cheese, which I am sure that I must have missed on the menu - since I am not a fan of goat cheese. The English Muffin was better than the little piece of toast at TOAST. The grits were a tie! Bright atmosphere and definitely family friendly as there was a noisy baby near our table. Overall, less expensive than TOAST and I would recommend. read more

Food is great! I highly recommend the brussel hash for your next visit! My server, Alyssa, was very charismatic and professional! Wait time was a bit long but absolutely worth it. read more

I come from a place that takes brunch very seriously so I'm a little critical. Overall 3/5 The waitress should never give the bill while your still eating #1. Toast is standard on every breakfast place and should not be an add on, same for potatoes and mash. Maple Syrup is water and sugar that gets hard after a minute... not sure what it is but it's 100% not maple syrup. Finally, the ultimate test at a breakfast place is when you ask for medium well poached eggs... they are supposed to come with a hard center and a little runny... they came out all runny here. Finally, Jams jar without peanut butter? Overall it was ok. Will try out the other spots in town. read more

Came here for brunch with my friends. The food was ok. Customer service was bad. We had our mask on and was still asked to wait outside in the rain, but other people were waiting inside. Not nice at all. read more

Wasn't impressed first time my wife and I tried their food after hearing so many OBVIOULY FAKE REVIEWS. . . .but then staffs do change, food quality can, why not give a 2nd chance? So we ordered the Blackstone Benedict. Sometimes folks you just don't give a restaurant a 2nd chance! Poached eggs (I guess?), dried out English muffins. TOTALLY DRY square potato pieces. Hollandaise sauce sucked -- greasy & inedible Threw the crap behind the fence behind our condo. No wonder the coyotes were howling in misery that night!! read more

Wonderful breakfast experience, good food and great server Jaden...polite, friendly very helpful with a wonderful smile. The restaurant advised they were understaffed but it did not impact our experience. We used the waitlist option and got seated right away. It pretty far from where I live, but if I'm in the area will definitely dine there again. read more

Highly recommend by locals and was not dissapointed at all. Everything was great and fast for our party of 7. Wish we had a few in the Hampton Roads area. read more
