First time trying them out. Went during brunch hour 11AM, wait time to be seated wasn't more than 3 minutes. My server was super kind, quick and attentive. Was patient when we waited for another guest to arrive. And knowledgeable when I mentioned my food allergy. He notified the kitchen on my allergy and had them remove allergen items, they were willing to work with me and create another dish if I wasn't satisfied with the original recipe minus Butter/ Milk. the food STILL came out fantastic and will definitely try again in the future. The atmosphere at this time was busy especially for a weekday morning, some moments were quiet and definitely an environment for families, Buisness or casual experience! read more

I stopped in about an hour before closing and ordered the salted caramel brew and the fried chicken BLT. The salted caramel brew was good and refreshing--smooth, not overly sweet, and easy to enjoy. The fried chicken BLT, on the other hand, was dry... RGV-weather dry. The chicken itself was good and well cooked, but the sandwich really needed more sauce to bring everything together. With a little extra love in that bun, it could be solid. I do want to give credit where it's due: the girl who served me was very friendly and welcoming, even close to closing time. Thank you for the great service. Overall, mixed experience ‍ great drink and kind service, but the sandwich could use some improvement. I'm sure I'll be back read more

First and probably last time! The service from the bartenders was outstanding but when it came to the food it's a no from me, food took long which I'm okay with it's a packed Sunday morning! But food was super raw, our poached eggs were super runny on the white part!! Not the yolk, we let the bartender know about it he had no problem and constantly apologized. Then a gentleman wearing a blue shirt with glasses which I'm assuming is the manager came up to us only to be sarcastic and tell us that's the way the make them, I let him know nicely the first time we ordered them well done poached! He continued with his sarcasm and to be honest came off rude and frustrated then I responded back with the same attitude he had not cool man I'd like to speak the the general manager read more

GREAT SPOT! Atmosphere Service Ask for Bulmaro - great service! Food...EXCELLENT!! Tried the Corn beef and Brussels hash the Hubby had the Louisiana Benedict (both seasonal, can't wait to come back and try the next seasonal menu) so glad we were able to taste these delicious dishes. Can't wait till they bring them back. Mom had the Buttermilk Pancakes with Ham, once again they hit the mark with such a simple dish. In addition, their Spiked Hot Coffees were really good. This will definitely be a come back place for us. read more

This restaurant just opened in McAllen and boy was it packed. Good thing you can join the wait list online. Service was ok as we got a new waitress and she seemed a bit lost. Still we were patient with her as we know they have to start somewhere. The food idk what to think I was expecting idk really really good flavors but it just didn't quite hit the spot for me. The home made sausage had a distinct taste of spices and a bit of sweetness that I just didn't like. The cinnamon roll French toast was meh, something was missing and the bread consistency was not there for a French toast bread. My husband had the chicken and waffles and as seen in the pictures it was 3 Chicken tenders and one waffle. Was expecting more for the price ( more as in in flavor or something that makes it stand out). The ambiance in my opinion was very loud by that IMO. read more

This place was so busy, I highly recommend getting there early or make sure you're willing to wait for a table! That being said, the wait is totally worth it imo. We ordered regular coffee and it was nice, not too strong. The prices are a bit steep but they do give you huge portions. I ordered the supreme omelet with potatoes and wheat toast. The potatoes were nicely seasoned and the omelet was huge! I would have liked my toast a bit toastier but other than that, my breakfast was delicious. My mom ordered biscuits and gravy and they make their sausage and gravy in house and it tasted so good! Their gravy was tasty and the biscuits were nice and fluffy! Our service was fantastic! Our waitress was nice and helpful with any questions we had about the menu and the food and the manager even stopped by our table to check in on us and told us that everything is made fresh and in house. Give this place a try! The space is nice and modern but still makes you feel homey. I can't wait to go back and try something different! read more

Service was excellent. Ambiance; busy. Food on a 1 to 10 scale = 3. We ordered scrambled eggs. They were . I've eaten powdered eggs that were better. The Belgium waffle...Eggo is better. The highlight was the bacon. read more

I had cinnamon roll French toast with blackberries, blueberries, strawberries and whipped cream. Fabulous!!! Service was excellent and I meant to ask but the whole place looked fairly new. Very bright and nice decor. I will go back. read more

From the start parking was a nightmare. This can be expected to get worse as the plaza still has room for more venues. The worse experience for wait time. We utilized the "Join the wait list" on their website 10-15 before getting to the restaurant. Upon arrival we were informed that we are placed on the waitlist upon arriving rather than when joining the wait list. Told it would be 30-40 minutes. We waited for 35 minutes approached the host only to be told that it would be another 30-40 minute wait. Decided to wait and get two drinks. Went to the bar to order two drinks. One for me and one for my wife who was waiting at the table outside with our child. The bartender insisted that my wife had to be present in order to serve both drinks. That was enough for us. We took off our name from the "wait list" and will not be back. The long wait did allow us to review the menu which is nothing special. read more

Been here a few different times, really like the seasonal menus. The Brussel sprout hash in November was amazing.

Personally, I was a fan of the chicken and waffles. The waffle was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The chicken was good, and the syrup had a nice kick. My husband got the broken chicken biscuit with country potatoes. It was very good. Unfortunately, we were given dirty silverware. Thankfully, the hostess quickly gave us new sets. The service was mediocre, perhaps because we came in at 1:40, close to closing time. Our server didn't check on us much, and forgot our apple juice. The food was good though and I enjoyed the coffee. read more

As a Yelper, I should have looked up these reviews before I wasted my time not only driving 30'mins this way but dining here this morning. I took my son to breakfast/brunch and from the beginning it was not a very pleasant experience. Upon entering, the ambiance is unimpressive. It just looks like a big crowded cafeteria. There was a long wait and no "waiting" area other than one small bench available. God forbid you have to stand. The staff make you feel like you are in their way the entire time. Hostess were very unfriendly and seemed bothered most of the time. Our Server was very kind but overwhelmed and busy. It took forever to receive our food. When the food came, it looked pretty, but the flavors fell short. Other than the soup, everything was pretty basic and unexciting. $17 for a fishy tasting crab cake Benedict (which has been a favorite breakfast item of mine for years) it was absolutely terrible. I don't think it was crab at all. The hollandaise non existent and I'm pretty sure the egg was over easy. My son had chicken tenders, hard to mess that up, but he too was unimpressed. It is rare my 12 year old tells me they don't ever want to go back there, but I will not be back and do not recommend wasting your time or $$ at this place. Very disappointing considering I use to love First Watch when I was living in Houston and I heard they are affiliated. read more

The wait was about 20 minutes for 3 of us, but they texted us as soon as our table was ready. There wasn't much of a waiting area, however, so we went and waited in the car. Food was WONDERFUL and so was the coffee (I had the medium roast). The server we had was friendly, prompt and the food came out relatively quickly. It was a little loud but nothing crazy, that would be expected on a Sunday morning. I'll definitely be going back soon! read more

I'll say the ambiance is amazing, we went the day after opening day and honestly I had high hopes for the food. We got the cinnamon French toast and it was very dry, chewy and not flavorful at all. My husband got the pancake combo; the eggs were typical liquid eggs they serve at major breakfast joints, the potatoes you can tell where frozen potatoes. As for the the pancakes they were dry and chewy. My 9 year old said Dennys has better pancakes , which I fully agree. I walked away thinking it was more like the broken dreams cafe bc I pumped myself up so much for this place. I hope they fix the food bc the coffee was good. But I mean you can't mess up coffee. Service was ok obviously the servers are still learning the menu. read more

A brand new breakfast place. Hubs had the cinnamon roll French toast. With eggs and sausage. He said it was super yummy. I had the spinach scramble with fresh fruit. Very tasty. The building is industrial and has quite an echo factor. So it's a tad loud and hen busy. read more

My family was waiting for coffee for 30 minutes also the table was dirty we he'd to tell the staff that black bear in McAllen was better (even though it's bad). Then a random man joined our conversation and was rude saying Why don't you go to black bear then. We did not have breakfast. Food is ok if I could rate 0 I would read more

Another Broken Egg Cafe - The Supreme Omelette - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - McAllen, Texas

I ordered the crab cake eggs Benedict. Which is not a crab cake at all it's an English muffin with crab on top and the egg was not poached it was more of a hard boiled egg, but the worst was the hollandaise sauce which was straight up mayo. I did not enjoy it at all. Definitely do not recommend and not worth the money. read more

no bueno, how do you mess up a seasoning a burger. Additionally, the drink price listed on the menu did not match the bill when presented (they charged me more). I won't go back again. read more

Annoyed. We joined the waiting list online due to it being an hour wait to be seated. Mind you I live 40 mins away from the place. Got to the restaurant to "check in". Then the lady says it's going to be an hour wait from time checked in. Then what's the whole point of the waiting list??? Makes no sense. read more

Being new restaurant in town it was super busy. The place is nice and clean. Long wait times but do wait list ahead of time it helps . The service was great for as busy as they were and wait time for food was not very long. The waitress was polite and quick to answer any questions. read more

We were greeted and seated quickly. It was 2 o'clock and not busy...only a few tables. The hostess was sweet. The female server took our drink order..I asked for lime for our tea...she brought lemons. I just rolled with the lemon. She took our order and said it should be quick..we are not busy. It took awhile...that was fine...but the food was room temperature..maybe slightly warm. I ordered Biscuits and gravy with sausage. My husband ordered an omelet with grits. His food was not hot either. I didn't see our waitress, so I asked an employee passing by if he could just pop my plate in the microwave for a minute. He said they would redo it!! So, I waited and ate my Chocolate chip pancakes which were very good. The potatos were good but not hot. My food finally came out. The sausage is quite good! The biscuit had very little gravy. For what you charge, you can be a little more generous with the gravy!! The restaurant was very clean. They were pre-closing which is fine. The server leaned over the table to fill up the jelly but did not clear the dirty plates nor apologize for the temp of the food at any point...even when she asked how everything was!! For an upscale breakfast restaurant that has great potential, y'all need to fix these things!! We may come back. .but we may not! I would think you would want to make every customer that walks in your door a REGULAR Customer. read more
