The food is delicious and service is wonderful. It was a great start to the day right before my husband and I traveled back to NYC. It filled us up without giving us the nasty sleepy feeling from having a large breakfast. It's also a great way to kick start our regular eating after a weekend of junk food read more

Awake is a fabulous place to eat and relax. It has an inviting atmosphere, friendly and efficient staff and the food is out of this world fantastic! I highly recommend it. I had the Colorado scramble and it was the best. read more

Solid. The service is prompt, friendly, and very attentive. I had the Huevos Rancheros, which was delicious. Full of flavor. It was my first meal back in Texas (I now live on the east coast where the Mexican food, to be frank, sucks) and it brought my tastebuds back to life. The ranch potatoes are also amazing. My mom had eggs Benedict. You will not be disappointed with that. I couldn't help comparing it to the one I had at The Original Pancake House that I had a week later...disappointing to say the least. The hollandaise sauce at the Egg & I just had so much more flavor whereas at TOPH tasted too creamy and lacked depth. You can't go wrong with the service, food, and price. Highly recommend! read more

Great place with lovely breakfast the atmosphere is laid back. The food is delicious weather you order breakfast or lunch and the service is extraordinary if you get a server ask for Kristina she is the best read more

I will say that going in, I didn't know what to expect, as I typically enjoy hole-in-the-wall breakfast diners, but I was delightfully surprised, the food was excellent. My girlfriend and I were sat right away, service was great. I went with the french toast, my girlfriend went with the eggs benedict. Both were much better than we expected with good-sized portions. The bacon was AMAZING. Need I say more? I would definitely recommend this place, despite being a chain, I was blown away by the food and service. read more

Searching for a banana foster waffle we came across this restaurant while in Dallas. In wasn't the waffle I imagined, but still delicious. My waffle was light + crispy and not something dino-sized, but perfect size to still have an appetite for lunch. Also, tried my friend's crab benedict and I thought it was pretty tasty as well. A step up on Denny's and IHOP. I recommend it. read more

After a work meeting, a couple coworkers and I were in need of a good hearty breakfast~ my co-worker recommended this place, as he had been here a couple times before, and I was a little skeptic, but after looking over the menu, I was beyond excited! The place is way bigger on the inside than it looks from the outside!! We were seated immediately and our server was tentative and nice, even though having 3 other tables. Was very impressed for it being a busy Sunday morning. As a vegetarian, and a healthy eater, I had no trouble finding something that fit what I would like to eat. Under the lighter offerings (I forget what they're called on the menu) but I got the egg white omelette that came with all the veggies in it and a side of fruit and English muffin. Took about 10-15 minutes for our food to arrive, and man! The presentations were amazing. My friends ordered some biscuit gravy thing (which I took a bite of and the potatoes were to die for) and my other coworker got strawberry something waffles which were mouthwatering. My omelette was so fluffy and so yummy and paired greatly with the hotsauce accompanied on the table. I will most definitely be coming back!!!! This place is so good. If I could give it more stars, I would!!! read more

I was Totally Surprised by the way this meal was prepared. It didn't look like what I saw online. I felt cheated what did not come with this over priced meal. I Can't not Recommend this location at All. read more

Their crab cake Benedict is delightful, my family also always gets the Turkey sandwich, Arizona I think? The Belgium waffle wasn't anything special but it's a waffle. I haven't had a bad item there. Mimosas are good, everything's good! read more

I really liked this restaurant for breakfast. I had french toast with eggs and bacon and it was such a good price. I couldn't eat it all because it was a big portion. This seemed to be a spot with lots of regulars and groups meeting up for breakfast to catch up on life. You pay your bill at the register by the way, I didn't know that but the manager was very friendly and allowed me to pay from my table. I will be back! read more

If you want great diner service, fast coffee, good classics, and a great pastry selection, this is your spot. The traditional breakfast was cooked good as well - cant forget the crispy bacon. One of the breakfast skillets was very salty, and this is coming from people who aren't generally sensitive to salt. As long as they tone down the salt a bit, they'll be in great shape! read more

I'm really tired of these places that are architecturally perfect and have poor quality food. I know the looks of the place bring in allot of people. I ordered a skillet that was supposed to have eggs, bacon and ham. It was 95% potatoes and 5% eggs, bacon, and ham. Cheapskates. They should have called it a potato skillet. And all the chairs in the place were institutional metal uncomfortable chairs. read more

First time here so haven't tried much off the menu but the meal I did have (the viva la France french toast) was pretty good although the French toast could have used a little more powdered sugar (why else would you get French toast unless you wanted it to look like it just came out of a Colombian cocaine factory) . The name is pretty indicative of their culinary inspiration and their menu sure does have a lot of choices. I did have a little plate envy as I saw the waiter bring the table next to me a delicious looking parfait and omelette. It really seems like if you are looking for a good healthy breakfast, you can find it here. The service was great and the food came out quick. I wish the lady had told me that I was supposed to pay up front because I just stupidly sat there for like fifteen minutes waiting for her to come back by and pick up my card. That's my fault I guess but a little communication on my part could have saved us both some time. Overall I would go there again. Will try something else but I am confident there are plenty of good options to choose from. read more

The food was good and service was super quick but there were some problems. There was a bit of confusion coming in and I had to speak to someone about. Also one of our orders was wrong but to the server's credit she owned and resolved it. I expected better but it wasnt bad. read more

So the last time I was here I had a horrible experience. And this morning I was asked to go back. I was a little apprehensive of going back because of the tasteless turkey sausage and bland food but I went. I had the byte omelette with a side of Turkey sausage again. The omelette was very delicious for an all veggie one. And this time the sausage was extremely tasty. So I'm on the fence due to their consistency. Third time may be the deal breaker. read more

Got the Wisconsin Scramble an my hubby got the Cornbeef hash and eggs. I have to say it was delicious first time I had scrambled eggs at a restaurant that were still super moist with lots of flavor, then let me tell you about the ranch potatoes!!!! OMG so good!!! Cooked to perfection well seasoned didn't need any added salt like you would normally have to. Definitely will come back again. read more

Not very satisfying would sum it up nicely. I liked the biscuits and gravy, and that's about it. The coffee was good, be sure to ask what the selections are. Having grown up with a step-father whose favorite meal was breakfast, I learned a thing or two about cooking eggs and sausage and bacon. Buy and make your own and you'll get better quality ingredients without the hassle or the cost. You could also drive a little further to one of my favorite spots, Pete's. I saw someone else mentioning that they used margine and corn syrup, and well, there ya have it... I'd figure the biscuits are from a mix too. i do have to say that the service almost made me want to go back, against my better judgement. read more

I always get nervous when the hostess introduces herself with "It's going to be a little wait". I roll my eyes and think, "Ohhhhhhh great." By a "little wait", she actually meant it! 5 minutes on a Sunday morning, and we were able to get a seat. Awesome! Our server was fantastic! Incredibly friendly and attentive, giving great recommendations. I got the Waffle Eggspress, which was a good life decision. I am a waffle fan, and this was definitely one of the better waffles I have had. It was perfectly crispy, with a nice soft inside. Served with a heap of butter and syrup. Like breakfast should be. Eggs cooked perfectly to order. Like they should be. Served promptly. Like it should be. My boyfriend was even MORE excited about his meal than I was about mine. He got the Cambridge Skillet, with jalapenos and over easy eggs. It was an explosion of flavor and spice, not needing anything else. I couldn't even get through my eggs before the whole thing was gone, it was so good. I would absolutely recommend this place. Fast service and good food. read more

I've experienced better even within their franchises. This particular one didn't really delivered. I ordered what I normally get at each one of their locations and for some reason I didn't leave as happy as I usually do. Still, it has ok items and good coffee. Maybe it was an off day for this location because I normally give The Egg&I 3-4 stars. read more

It was my first time here. The service was great, the food was delicious. The only complaint I have is my friend's banana bread french toast was not as moist. I got the crab cake egg benedict and it was by far the best I've ever had. read more

Excellent food and excellent service. I had the orchard juice drink it was healthy and delicious. I also had eggs, bacon and a waffle it was wonderful and more than enough to eat. They are currently remodeling but it still exceptionally clean and organized. read more

is it possible to be turned off by the name of a restaurant? If so, then I don't feel so bad. Why do these restaurants try to be so trendy when deciding on a name I will never know. This was 2nd visit to the restaurant and again my experience was subpar. I believe someone likened it to a notch above an IHOP and I couldn't agree more. To me breakfast should be simple. You shouldn't try to please everyone (because you can't). Just pick a few items and do them better than anyone else. There were too many items on the menu, just like an IHOP or Denny's. I don't like to eat at either of those places either. After perusing the menu for what seemed liked forever, I decided Berry/ola oatmeal and a side of bacon. The portion was far too much for me and the oatmeal was overpowered by the berries. The bacon was fairly good and the slices were thick. I also ordered coffee which was fresh and hot. They bring out a cup and thermal picture full of coffee. To me what they are essentially saying is "I'm going to pour this one cup of coffee for you and then you're own your own." I thought a server was supposed to serve. Once my server brought my food I never saw her again. She did somehow manage to pass by my table again and drop off the check without asking me if I needed anything else. I'm a good tip (20% or more) and I did still tip her more than 20% although I felt she did little to earn it. Do waiters or waitresses ever read any books on customer service? If they do, it sure doesn't show. My visit was on a Thursday at 9:30 am so I didn't have to wait in line. The ambiance was tolerable but nothing special. I'd really to be desperately hungry to visit this place again. Total bill excluding tip was #13.07 read more

Great food for sure, however if you like a runny egg you may want to be clear about it. As I saw in pictures here & in my tables experience the runny type egg can be a little over done. Managment quickly took care of getting me new eggs & the green chili hash was delicious!!! Colorado Jack scramble was good & moms corn beef has was a 7/10 according to her. Will go again for sure! read more

We really enjoyed our first meal here. I had the Eggs Benedict with Crab which was very tasty & reasonably priced. I also enjoyed that they offered flavored coffee as an option. They have a Gluten-Free menu, but it's basically items that are normally gluten-free (or should be) anyway. Still it would be nice if gluten-free waffles or pancakes were an option. Our server, Matt, was friendly & prompt. We look forward to making this one of our regular places. read more

This was my 1st time....it was ok...not the best breakfast I've had. The environment was nice and slightly crowded. Took a while for our food to come but the waiter was very pleasant. I really just wanted bacon, but i went ahead and ordered the french toast which was just ok. I recommend trying this place just due to the fact that it was my first time and I didn't try everything so I'd give them another try. read more

Not a great experience here. First of all, the floor is carpeted which is always a bad choice for a restaurant, at least in my opinion. The floor was sticky and there was water damage on the ceiling tiles, not very appetizing sitting under that. Secondly, it took 25 minutes after we ordered for our food to come and they weren't even busy. All we ordered was a simple frittata and an omelette, there's no way it should take that long. The guy at the table next to us got seated AFTER we ordered and was done with his entire meal (he also got an omelette) before we even got our food. Pretty ridiculous. The third negative I had is about the coffee. It's just not good. They obviously over cook their beans, had a very burnt taste. There were also several other small annoyances. I had to ask twice for a coffee mug for myself, we had to ask twice for a to-go box for our left overs...things of that nature. The only reason I'm giving it 2 stars instead of 1 is because the food was alright, not great but decent. Based on all the other reviews maybe I just got unlucky with the bad service we experienced, but I won't be back. Here's my overall ratings- Atmosphere- 1.5/5 Service- 1.5/5 Food- 2.5/5 Coffee- 2/5 Quality/value- 2.5/5 UPDATE: Cassi who does 'Customer Service' for The Egg and I messaged me and asked for my information so that the owner could follow up with me, but considering her response to my negative review is the exact same copy and pasted message she says to every negative review, I didn't take her apology as very sincere. My negative review stands. read more

I hate to be so harsh with this review but saying I was extremely disappointed is an understatement. Especially in comparison to the reviews. We came here cuz everywhere else was jam packed and it was a total rip off! Should have figured there was a reason there was no line around the corner. This place is expensive, small portions and the pancakes taste like saw dust. Definitely not as good as First Watch which has better portion sizes, better food overall, better pancake selection and more affordable prices. Or go to Yolk for larger portions, better food, and value for the price. read more

Food is good so that 2 stars. Poor customer service. Front desk short white young girl puts you on hold never picks up again when you want to place to-go. Placed togo order after walking in, said it will be ready in 10 mins but took more than 40 minutes to get it. Edited to 1 star because food was cold and the they burnt the toast, i think it was ready and no one cared to handover to the customer waiting. read more

This is probably the last time I come here. The one '$' rating (under $10.00) is likely not their fault (my daughter's and my plates were $15 apiece), but they didn't provide water at the table, forgot my eggs, and the biscuit(s), the 'biscuits and gravy' only came with one biscuit. I had to order one to eat with my eggs, were large, but overdone and flat as a pancake. The one enjoyable item was the Belgian waffle, large, fat and tasty! Two stars was generous. read more

Yo this place is my faaaaavorite breakfast place I will forever always choose to go and it's very inexpensive and I love the seasonal meals and drinks they have I luv everything about this place the food the atmosphere the staff. Yo especially today idk who was back there cooking but MAN they can cook and lemme tell you, I do not like eggs but I can tolerate scrambled and I've never had eggs like this it was the fluffiest I've ever had. Their avocado toast rn is soooo good I've never had it but it's so good and has a good lemony taste oh man. Sorry I didn't tell you guys in person how much I enjoyed my meal today I was shy but I've been going for over a year now and I will continue to do so uwu I don't have a picture of my meal I have a video but it won't let me post idk read more

Dirty! It's a Tuesday and there's no one in there . Every single table and booth had food on it. The waitress brings me an iced coffee with NO ice. And a spoon no straw. Just very unprofessional as she walks up to us and says she going to kick her co worker in the BALLS. LOL anyway, I'm disappointed cause this is my 2nd Time eating here . I thought on a Tuesday @ 11am there wouldn't be a wait or issue. I left and didn't even touch much drink ! Won't ever go back. AND SOME OF their employees are wearing mask. Just not a clean place . read more

Excellent menu and friendly service. I had the crab cake benedict which was delicious. Good strong coffee as well

My food was delivered hot. But the frozen chicken tender spear on my chicken and biscuit sandwich was underwhelming. Service was very slow. I believe there are much better breakfast options around. The hot sauce on the table was good though. read more
