I sat for ten minutes on a slow week day morning and was ignored. Very poor customer service. There were servers standing around conversing with each other. read more

This is hands-down the best breakfast place you will find in the DFW area. No other restaurant has as many egg dishes than this. All their menu items are both creative and full of flavor. On top of that, they are made from scratch using fresh ingredients. They also make a hollandaise sauce that is out of this world! Seriously, if I order an egg benedict anywhere else, it always tastes like feet in comparison to the Egg and I. If you are heading there for your first time, I would recommend either one of their egg benedicts or their green chili chicken hash. Also, make sure you try the hazelnut coffee. read more

I ordered through Ubereats and had it delivered, so my review will be strictly related to the food experience. The food was okay. It took longer to be prepared than expected. It was scheduled to be delivered at 10:45 and wasn't even ready to be picked up until almost 11. When the food arrived, I was pleased with the proportions. I was pleased with the presentation. However the taste left something to be desired, it was bland. The Hiker's Benedict was okay overall. It was not bad but it was not especially good. The hollandaise sauce was absolutely excellent. The Breakfast Burrito was pretty good-ish. It was nothing to write home about. The green chili salsa was missing, which is a shame because it was the best thing I tasted overall. Oh, the side potatoes were very tasty. I liked them a lot. The Mexican Skillet was the best thing I ordered, unfortunately it was missing the eggs. This dish however did have the pork green chili salsa, which I got to try, and it was delicious. Probably the best part of the meal. Overall it was an edible meal, nothing was too terribly wrong, but it wasnt something that I'd go out of my way to get again. It was average. read more

The Egg & I always serves a great meal; the service is always stellar, especially when Orlando waits on you. He is friendly, quick, professional, and remembers your favorite items when you return. He makes you feel like you are family. He also steps in as the manager from time to time. Overall great place to eat. Barbara J read more

Super delicious even as take out! Lots of avocado for the avo toast. Fruit was fresh. Omelet and corned beef hash hit the spot, too! Very filling. read more

If you know me you'll know I'm a huge breakfast fan, feel like I've missed out on something if I don't have breakfast plus no one wants to me hangry Bridget! You guessed it out and about with my daughter and grandson and decided to try this place out. The wait was about 20 minutes which is not a surprise considering it was Sunday morning after church and this location was directly across the street from Prestonwood Baptist Church. Once seated the service was great, the waitress was very friendly and attentive, especially to my grandson. Our food came in a matter of minutes. The has browns or as I call them skillet potatoes are delicious as was the omelette and the dollop of sour cream was a great compliment to the omelette as the waitress told us it would be. Glad we made the decision to give this place a try. One highlight to my visit was the manager walking around greeting and talking to guest, and even serving food you don't see this often anymore. read more

Only average, at best. Why this place is so busy on the weekends is beyond me. My only guess is there must not be very meany breakfast places on Hebron in West Plano. Quite frankly, IHOP or any other chain is as good or better than here. I had their biscuts and sausage gravy and they were not very good. Their sausage gravy was the same type you get at some of the chains - brown and no flavor and sort of jello-e. My wife had pancakes, which she said was good. We went on a Saturday morning around 7:30, before the rush, and found them to be a bit slow. Took a few minutes to get the drinks, took a few minutes for waitress to come take order, etc. Not a bad experience, but nothing any better than any where else. Overall, the score is based on the food since the service was on par with most other average service at any other restaurant nowdays. read more

It's an okay spot for breakfast. Three and a half stars. Would get more if the short order cooks that work here could consistently get an over medium egg prepared properly -- I end up with over easy too often instead, which drags down the rating. I eat here a few mornings each week because my office is nearby and the staff here is friendly. Service is really, really prompt. read more

I frequent both the Hebron and Dallas Tollway area location: went the first week they opened, loved my meal and service: so for over a year had my weekly sales meetings in their private room which is great. I have had everything on the menu and it's all very good! Honestly wish all Denny's could magically become Egg & I . I know good leadership when I see it, so got to know the owner Ryan and he is absolutely the real deal! Better quality food and environment. read more

Fantastic! Highly recommend Eggs Benedict, grits and French toast! Affordable too and loved the waitress!

The service was terrible!! They had no organization on how to manage to go orders. I am extremely upset that I called them at 10:08 to let them know I was outside waiting. I had called them again at 10:30 and they said my food maybe waiting at the front but they were going to check. They finally came outside to bring out food and it cold. Had them take it back now happy. I would not recommend. read more

We were seated pretty fast. Cute and quirky vibe. I got the eggs Benedict. The flavor was really good, but sadly it was cold and I didn't have the balls to ask for a warm one. My friend got the French toast and she really liked it. The potatoes were delicious. Took them quite a while to bring us our check. I would definitely be back. read more

Consistently good service and food. This is a frequent spot for my family as they never disappoint.

Not sure why it says this place is closed. I am having a delicious lunch here right now. I love the remodel and the updated menu. The extra seating makes it easier to get in on those busy days and my wife loves the new mimosa menu. Keep up the great work Awake team!! read more

Egg white vegetarian omelet and fruit were AWESOME... And the ice tea was sooooo freshly brewed!!!! SERVICE ROCKED!!!!

Have only eaten here once previously because it is always so crowded on the weekend. Especially on Sunday, since it is right across from Prestonwood Baptist Church. We were planning to go somewhere else, but when we saw that the line was really small we decided to eat here instead. Very typical breakfast cafe atmosphere, relatively small number of tables. The coffee was OK, nothing particularly spectacular about it, but still serviceable. My partner has the French toast, and the pieces were HUGE. 2 pieces of French toast were more than a lot of others places serve in 4 or 5 pieces. I had the Spinach Bacon Mushroom frittata. I'm glad to find a place that understand the difference between an omelet and a frittata!! This one had a lot of fresh veggies in it, including artichokes and asparagus. Delicious flavor and it was topped with a pretty good basil pesto. One of the few things not made on site, according to the manager, but still pretty decent. Almost certainly will be back if it's ever not crazy again. read more

Excellent food and beautiful customer service. It is always nice to find a new place to eat where the staff genuinely act concern and have smiles on there faces. I will definitely come back again and refer other friends. Delicious!! Just delicious... read more

See all

We got to sit down immediately, the wait staff was very attentive and friendly.. food came out looking great. I got the Texas steak skillet. The only reason i give it a 4 (really a 4.5) Star is because the food had a strange aftertaste... maybe it's my tastebuds but overall the food was still good. I would definitely come here again with others.. read more

Great little place for breakfast! The Mexican Omelette was very good, had both the green chili & salsa - couldn't decide which was better! Highly recommend! read more

Used to be one of my favorite restaurants. Unfortunately, whoever is in charge here has seriously slipped. Prices have gone way up, food quality has gone way down. Some days, the food is amazing - other days, not so much. Waffles are always incredible, but lately we've noticed that the eggs are never cooked correctly (is it not called The EGG and I??). If you are going to eat here, don't sit anywhere near the kitchen. My husband and I sat in the back booths near the kitchen and restroom one day, and we unfortunately discovered that only one of the cooks was wearing gloves. That same day, one of the cooks left the kitchen to sit in the back area, presumably to "people watch." He made us very uncomfortable, and I overheard him talking about a young girl on staff in a somewhat inappropriate manner. I can only hope either this young woman finds a new job soon, or this man finds a new place of employment. All I can say is, my children won't ever be brought back here, and I would never let either of my daughters work here. read more

Always great food. Value per dollar is fair, but no real cheap Ala carts. Regardless one of the best breakfast places in Carrollton. Awesome server staff and management read more

I'll get right down to it. Food was great. I had the poached eggs and crab. They drown it in Hollandaise which I personally liked. I was a little leery of the crabcakes being microwaved specials but it was not the case. Only drawback on mine was that the chef decided to include the dreaded end peace of the tomato. Next time just get a new one, dude! The ranch potatoes on the side were greatly seasoned. I am a fan of adding cheese, onions and diced ham to hash browns and potatoes, but these could have stood on their own as far as taste. Sour dough bread was a great tool for dipping into the hollandaise too. Girlfriend had an egg omelette covered with mozzarella, asparagus, spinach and ham. She thought it was supposed to come with bacon, but we surmised that it may have said Canadian bacon instead. Mistake or not, it was quickly overlooked in favor of taste which was excellent. We also split an apple cinnamon waffle. It was way too much food already, as the portions are very large here. We considered it our dessert and only finished half the waffle. The cinnamon butter was rich and we took it home as leftovers. Luckily it was left at my place so I'll eat it for breakfast this morning. Food service was a little slow, but we experienced a fifteen minute wait getting our table so it was obvious they were in the weeds in the kitchen. Hardly a surprise after experiencing the good food. We also were there at the packed noon hour. The wait staff was very friendly, as was management. Our waiter seemed to be behind and I noticed the other staff helping him out and making rounds to make sure drinks were full a couple times. I felt they very much like children at the place, which is positive since I have a four 1/2 year old daughter. Will definitely go again. Cost was reasonable at $30. Had we not ordered the unnecessary waffles, it would have been closer to $20. I think it's plenty of bang for my bucks. read more

First time here was a few days ago, food was delicious and good pricing too...service could be improved just a little, like they could serve the coffee warm and not take so long with the drinks but overall great place to brunch with the family! (I had the Huevos Rancheros!) read more

One of my favorite breakfast and lunch spots! Great service, thats fast and friendly. Everything is made to perfection. From the waffles to the french toast to the sandwiches you just cannot go wrong. The hazelnut ice coffee is fantastic as well. read more

Wonderful place. My daughter and I just randomly stopped by on Memorial Day for breakfast/lunch. Jose was our server and he was very friendly. Eggs Benedict was perfect and service was fast and friendly. FIVE STARS! read more

Line was very long for Sunday lunch. Very clean and great interior. But fork had dried food stuck when I got to the table. Had toast with two poached eggs. One egg was fine but the other egg was fully cooked inside. Mexican breakfast items were all too salty. read more

This is a favorite place to go to have consistently great food and conversation with close friends. The manager is friendly and usually comes by to see how we liked the food. Our friends told us the food is better at this location than another one they tried. We always try to sit at one of Orlando's tables! He is one if the reasons we keep coming back! He is an excellent waiter but much more- he makes it a warm and fun experience! We feel like we are visiting with a friend who is a charming host! read more

Great breakfast! Definitely will be going back. Service was good and food was delicious.

I live less than a mile away and frequent this location a few times a month. Today was one of those times, one of those days when you ask yourself why you continue to repeat bad habits. In a year of living here this location has repeatedly dropped the ball, from the top down. I've been ignored at the front door (such as today), ignored at my table (twenty minutes for a server to realize they have a table to greet? Really?), and repeatedly receive inconsistent charging on my bill (refills on kale cooler? Free or not?) I am not a yelper, I created my account this very morning for the sole purpose of sharing my experience with this location in hopes that they may get their act together and save another from having the same terrible experiences over and over again as I have. read more

First time trying. Honestly nothing really special. Just ok I normally like breakfast places that serve things different then what I can cook at home. Had the Mexican omelet nothing special. Just BLAND. ‍ On to the next. read more

Im @ Egg & I now for the first time & probably the last time. The food is less than impressive, the omelet was delivered plain minus half of the veggies and chicken that I ordered. The waitress brought another one which was little bit better I wanted to go to their kitchen to show the cooks how to cook an omelet. On the fluffy side my wife and son enjoyed the Blueberry pancakes. read more

I was looking for a place we could take my 98-year-old mother for breakfast the Saturday before Mother's Day. Even though the Egg and I does not normally accept reservations, they bent over backwards for our family. They brought out a table for 6 and set it in a place where we could bring Mom up in her wheel chair. They guaranteed us that spot on the busiest weekend of the year in honor of her age. We had four generations around that table. The service was wonderful, the food fabulous, and Mom is still talking about her strawberry banana waffle! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! read more

Great new look! Breakfast was amazing and really liked all the menu choices! Can't go wrong with mimosa's !!

I am visiting from California and found the egg and I on Yelp . I had a great breakfast and Casey was my waiter. The food was excellent the service was excellent I definitely will be back ! Thank you Casey ! read more

This 5 Star review is for Doretta. This lady is absolutely amazing, I've only been served once by her and she made quite an impression. It was a Sunday, probably near the end of a breakfast rush. We walked in, got a seat towards the back. She was always helping us if we needed anything. I would say she was prompt, courteous and professional. Today I came back and I'll give it 3 stars at most. Nothing extraordinary or horrible. My only gripe was that the biscuits and gravy was served in a very chipped bowl. Nothing to write home to mom about when it came to the wait staff. The food makes a good enough impression to come back. read more

Wow!!! Food was great! Service was decent! I will for sure be coming back. The place was so comfy And cozy.

This specific location is absolutely horrible and I have experienced that more than once. The wait is usually long but once you finally get seated no one even asks you for your drink order until 10-15 minutes after you are seated, then ordering and getting your food takes a very long time. The last time I visited this location we were so frustrated we left right after our drink orders. We let the hostess know that we were leaving due to service and she did not care at all. I will not be visiting the egg & I anymore. read more

This review is based on the manager, Dan. We showed up for our monthly mastermind breakfast meeting (20 of us) and somehow our reservation for the private room wasn't in the books. He stayed calm and made it happen for us on the patio out front. Thank you, Dan. We appreciate you accommodating our group and going above and beyond for us. We will see you next month. :) read more

My husband and I came here as another option after walking out of the Waffle House due to rude service. Not only was the service exceptional, the food was outstanding. We were seated and received our order within 15 minutes of arriving. The server and host were very pleasant and extremely helpful. I reccomend the crab benedict. So good! We will definitely return! read more

Oh I really wish I had a good experiences here as all my friends raved about this place. The wait was your usual 15-20 minute wait as it was Sunday. We were seated and I asked for hazelnut coffee. It took about 10 minutes for my coffee to come out. I ordered the Morning Harvest which is "Premium Steel Cut Oatmeal", fruits, and toast of your choice which I selected Wheat. I also ordered a side of bacon. My meal came out and I took my first bite of the oatmeal and HMMM IT WAS COLD. Not even LUKEWARM. I asked our waitress who by the way WAS NOT ATTENTIVE, if I can get some warm oatmeal. What she failed to tell me was that they had to make a new batch. So as my other friends were eating their meal, I was still waiting on mine. It was well over 10 mins. Of course I am already full from eating my wheat toast and bacon as my HOT oatmeal comes out. I normally do not complain but this time I had to. I asked for the manager and I explained to him the situation. He knew exactly what I was talking about when I said my oatmeal came out cold. He explained they use "PREMIUM Steel cut oatmeal" and it takes 10 mins to cook. If our waitress would of mentioned that it was going to take 10 mins to cook I wouldn't of gotten upset. Oh, my bacon was a plate of 3 greasy slices and maybe I should of just asked for it to be extra crunchy as it was kind of soggy. The manager did take off my Oatmeal on the bill and gave my friends 1/2 off but I just wanted the situation to get corrected. I do appreciate the manager taking his time out on a busy Sunday morning to talk to me and to correct the situation. Maybe I came in at the wrong time and maybe I'll give this place a second chance...maybe. read more
