This breakfast place is new right off of Arapaho and the toll way. Parking is plentiful so you wont have to worry about parking. The inside is soooo classy, clean and bright. You can get takeout or you can sit down and eat. I came with 2 other people during the weekday for breakfast and it was quiet but amazing. I ordered an egg scramble that had feta cheese and mushrooms. I loved the potatoes that came with the meal. It was light, hot and really tasty. Let's just say everyone cleaned their plates it was that good. Coffee is endless if you order some. They leave the pot on the table which is awesome. Service was good; cant complain. I will definitely be returning because this is a decent breakfast restaurant. Great job everyone! read more

We had a mid morning breakfast here before watching the eclipse. Service was good, atmosphere was ok. Nothing spectacular. I had crab cake Benedict and my wife had the breakfast burrito. I'd give the crab cake bene a 3. Wife say's the burrito better than a three. Overall a not bad experience. Price was about right. Wish I could give a 3.5. read more

Had a fantastic meal at Awake this afternoon. The manager, Jamie is fantastic. My server, Kyle, one of the best servers I've had the pleasure of encountering. Had the Belgian Waffle combo with scrambled eggs and bacon. Absolutely the best. I usually pick up a trio of biscuits, gravy, and grits on my way to work. I usually add an OJ to drink while I wait for my to go order. Always fresh, tasty, and hot. 5 x 5 stars!! read more

This place was close in the area decided to stop by around 11 Monday Morning. The decor in this place is really nice it's a calm restaurant. We were seated right when we walked in. I tried the arnold palmer which wasnt sweet but still good and hot chocolate. I also ordered the 40 ounce mimosa (orange cranberry) I definitely thought it was going to come full and garnished (as shown in pictures) but it was already poured into two glasses. Enough for about 4 glasses. I ordered the Denver omelette sub bacon for the ham with potatoes it was regular nothing wowd me. I tried the chicken spinach salad which was AMAZING if I were to come back I would order that. I think this place has potential. The service was a little slow but my waiter was nice I like that you pay in the front. read more

Good spot good food. The service was excellent. We visited on a Sunday morning and the wait was about 10-15 min. I had french toast and they were prepared well. The place is open and bright food was good and not overly expensive. However, everything is higher these days. My guest had eggs etc. and also indicated the food was good. Parking was not too bad. Overall thumbs up and recommend visiting read more

Awake - Front - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Our breakfast was really good. We had the egg white chicken and avocado omelet, cheesy grits, bacon and the Tuscan skillet. My only concern was the cleanliness of the place. Floor was sticky and a guy walked around with a rag and wipes down tables....no disinfectant-nothing. It was quite disgusting and gave reason as to why the menus were sticky. We got food to go the next day. read more

2019 Yelp 120 Challenge - #83 This location has been renovated and remodeled and it is still in the process. It is located in a shopping plaza and for the last 12 years it was known as the EGG & I. There new name is now AWAKE. It offers a new sleek design with mimosas and other alcoholic beverages. The well be mostly likely a wait when you visit, but it want take long. They have call in & pick up station as well as several high top seating for individuals who don't want a table. Food: All the food items looked amazing. It took me way too long to make a decision on what I wanted to eat. I ended up getting their 2 egg breakfast with bacon, yummy ranch potatoes, and a honey biscuit. My food was delicious and I will defiantly be back. I can't wait to try other yummy items on their menu. read more

As many times, as I've passed this place, I finally had the pleasure of having breakfast there with a friend of mine. What stood out to me was the service. I am saddened at the fact that I forgot our waitress says name, but she was absolutely amazing. I asked her for her opinion on what to eat and drink and she nailed it. Now I must be honest the only thing that I did not care for that I ordered because I was curious to taste with the pancakes. Other than that everything else is great. read more

Awake - Monterrey Benedict- served incorrectly on a pancake - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Okay so this joint is really popular on Sunday's we found and very pricey for breakfast. However that being said, the food is to die for. My husband and I stopped here for breakfast after a long night and the wait was about 20 minutes to get in around 11:30 am. I ordered the Parisian Benedict and replaced the croissant with the English muffin which I prefer. Let me tell you I wanted to eat two more servings of this! Soooo tasty. My husband got the awake omelette without ham which was so juicy I mean the flavor burst in my mouth! We also got two drinks- different mimosas which I didn't particularly like and two different Belgian waffles which again I'm not a huge fan of those in general so I won't hold it against the restaurant. Our waitress was so sweet and nice to talk to as well. Overall we were very satisfied and will definitely stop by in the future if we are in the area! read more

While in town looking for a breakfast place, we came across Awake. It was a Sunday morning around 11:30 and we were seated within 15 minutes. The iced coffee was great as was my skillet. Others at the table had eggs, strawberry pancakes, skillets, and french toast and there were 0 complaints. If I come back to Texas, I would definitely eat here again! read more

If you're looking for a decent brunch spot without a long wait, this is a good option. They turn tables very quickly so you're never waiting for long and get your food soon after ordering. The food isn't as great as some other nearby brunch spots but it gets the job done. The demographic is very family oriented. -Parisian Benedict: 5/10 my Benedict's eggs were soft boiled rather than poached which ruined it -Potato Soup: 6/10 was super salty -Iced Coffee: 9/10 great Starbucks dupe and super sweet read more

Awake - Parisian Benedict - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dallas, Texas

the food here was delicious. Came here for breakfast. I got a waffle, eggs, and potatoes. I do recommend!

I love brunch and I think I'd keep coming back to Awake as a go-to brunch spot. I visited around 10:45am on a Sunday (peak brunch time!) during the waning era of COVID. I ordered the pancake combo with: apple cinnamon pancake, eggs, 2 sausage patties, and an extra order of loaded ranch potatoes. Here's what I loved: - their loaded ranch potatoes. I added these on as a side for a very low price and they were probably my favorite item. - this place had a wait of like 2 minutes when I got there. I actually had come to Awake after directly leaving both Maple Diner and Snooze because the waits at both those restaurants was 2 HOURS. So woohoo for Awake, maybe they are a hidden gem. - their sausage was pretty decent, a little over a 4.0/5.0 for me. - my waitress's personality. She was kind of spunky and fun. She addressed me as "dude" a lot ("alright dude sounds good"). She had kind of an Austin-y vibe which I liked. Here's what I thought was alright: - the pancake. Now, that pancake was big - as in, it had a very large surface area. I did think there would be more pancakes though, maybe 2 or 3. And I did think it would taste better, even amazing. But I actually didn't link the apple cinnamon at all, it kind of tasted wheat-y which is not the taste I was going for. - the eggs. They were pretty average scrambled eggs. - pricing. Pricing was very average with what you would expect at a brunch place. That means, you're probably not going to get surprised by a high price tag. But of course, I'd always love a lower price tag! Here's what I hated: Nothing! read more

Really solid breakfast place I hit every couple of weeks. Good coffee and English muffins. Traditional breakfast is excellent.

Awake - Corned Beef Hash & Eggs - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dallas, Texas

Not good at all. The chicken and waffles there is not what you'd think... it's thin air fried chicken that you would serve to your toddler.. no flavor in the waffle AT ALL... you'd be better off going to your local Hilton Inn at their self-service waffle area. Overall it's a no for the food. However, the customer service was good. read more

Well... I give 3.5 stars. I don't go out for breakfast often, so I like to check out awesome places, and by the reviews and pics I thought Awake will be one of those. Did not really come up to my expectations. The hostess was super nice, we could sit wherever we wanted. Server was good, place was empty and really like really warm. I could not wait to finish breakfast so we can go get some air outside. Mimosa was okay, my absolute breakfast fav is eggs Benedict , that's what I've tried here as well, my potatoes were not cooked enough and kinda soggy, like lukewarm, I did mention it to our server but I also said that I don't want him to take my dish for a remake since I was super hungry. Friend got an omelette, nothing special. The place has a new and hip vibe to it but we all know looks can be deceiving. We shared a piece of French toast as dessert, the middle of the bread was runny from all the batter. I won't be back. read more

The food was immaculate. Surprisingly no fishy or eggy taste with the silverware. The food was served very efficiently. I did come at a time when it was a bit less busy, however the service was quick and they constantly kept refilling my water. The ambiance is amazing. There is a lot of artwork that shows they are very big on their brand. Their hot sauce was actually perfect. It was tangy and sweet with the right amount of heat. Overall great experience would DEFINITELY come back read more

Atmosphere: Looks like your typical little breakfast place. Nice, bright, and clean. Service: No concerns Food: Ordered the classic Benedict with the ranch potatoes, it was good. Coffee - no thanks, it was like drinking black tea. It definitely is not worth the $3.50 they charge for it. Overall it was good, not sure I would go back because good coffee is a must. read more

Five stars for service, the wait staff was very attentive and polite! Clean and nice, cozy little place to eat. The food was more like a solid four stars.

Also the house brew coffee will put hair on your chest, super strong stuff. read more

Overall this was a great experience. Waitress was attentive. Other than bringing me a glass with a big strawberry (allergy alert) on it, she was a very good waitress. We had a carafe of mimosa, which you could taste the alcohol and the orange juice was fresh. The food was really tasty and filling for the amount you get. The only thing is that they don't put all the up charges on the menu, so my meal I thought would be around $7 ended up being closer to $11 due to the extra pricing. No biggie, but they should make people aware of up charges. I would definitely recommend this place for a breakfast /brunch place. read more

I visited awake for the first time with my boo. This was such a perfect place to come to for brunch. I enjoyed the avocado bacon scrambled with a blueberry pancake. The service was amazing. The food came out of the kitchen fast and it was hot. The restaurant is clean and once again the staff was very friendly, very tactful and knowledgeable of the menu, we didn't have to ask for anything. They had great customer service, friendly, staff, tasty food and a clean restaurant. read more

Awesome brunch! Their pumpkin waffle is definitely worth the trip. The batter is amazing and it comes with cinnamon butter. They also have fresh OJ and a nice kale drink! I would pass on the cider mimosa unless you really like hard cider. I also tried the hitchhiker Benedict and added roasted potatoes. Def get the potatoes! I'd suggest adding some less traditional Benedict's to the menu if possible!? Maybe lox? Halloumi? Or fried chicken and a biscuit? Still really good but I tend to go for non traditional options Took the order to go since it was rainy the day we went, but I'd be back to enjoy this on their patio! They try to space out seating indoors and all their servers are wearing masks which is awesome!! I just stick with outdoor seating for extra precautions :) Shoutout to our server Lily for suggesting the best items! read more

Just don't order it to go. You wont get your juice which is an important part of breakfast!

I discovered that I wrote a glowing review about Awake six years ago. Well, my experience last week cancels out that good experience. My daughter and I stopped in for a late breakfast. As far as I could see, there was only one other occupied table. The server took our order fairly promptly and brought our drinks. We both ordered the Garden Frittata with a side of hash browns and muffin. Then we waited. And waited. And waited. When we finally got our meals, none of the food was hot. None of it. We had been engrossed in conversation and just started eating. The food tasted fine but I can only assume it had been sitting on the counter for some time before being brought to us. When our server finally came back to the table (a good 20 minutes after leaving our meals), she did not ask if everything was okay, or ask about drink refills, she just asked if she could take our empty plates. My daughter asked for the check. Between the lengthy wait to be served and the lengthy wait for her reappearance, I'm guessing she was engrossed in conversation with another employee or perhaps on her cell phone and lost track of the time. In any event, there are too many other good breakfast places up north to waste another visit here. read more

We had a couple friends in town and wanted to enjoy a quick breakfast before they flew out. Decided to stop by here, as we hadn't been since the name change. We were greeted upon entry, and saw that all staff had on their masks, which is always comforting. I ordered their spinach, bacon and mushroom omelette. Which had that + it was topped with hollandaise. Also came with the fresh fruit & English muffin. Essentially, a nice balanced meal. Ordered their vanilla iced coffee too, which was pretty tasty. Overall, a simple restaurant with a nice breakfast. Also tasted their acai drink, which was refreshing to say the least. Can't wait to return to try more items on the menu. read more

When I called they said they had a 15 minute wait, so we said why not? We come inside and join the 10-15 minute waitlist. What I've noticed is that they tell everyone including a party of 7 that the wait would be 15 minutes that's not even realistic the wait was definitely over 10-15 minutes just to be placed at a dirty table by the bathroom. After placing our order it took about 20-30 minutes for the food to arrive and once it did my waffle was cold and my brother's pancake was slightly burnt. The food was mediocre, the bacon was good but everything else was nasty. We will not be coming back to this location again. read more

Well, we had a call ahead reservation... which apparently got lost? Or they don't honor them the way normal reservations are placed? Because we had to wait behind everyone else who was already there. Very dumb process and while we were waiting, I heard it happening to other people too. They need to work on their process there for sure. The coffee was good, ordered oatmeal pancakes as well. They had a consistency different from a normal pancake, more like banana based pancakes, so more gooey/chewy. The toppings were good and I didn't mind the texture! Just warning in case you're unaware. Scrambled eggs and bacon cooked perfectly (I asked for extra crispy). I'd go back, but not even bother with a reservation due to their handling of it. read more

Our service and food was amazing. Our waitress Crisha was GREAT! The only reason I am leaving 4 stars is due to the two employees who were standing/leaning on the counter when we first walked in. Not only did they publicly make fun of the host but verbally demeaned him in front of us. The two employees were leaning on the counter laughing at the host and making ignorant comments about his mental capacity. One was a young Hispanic male wearing a Halloween shirt, its March.. the second was a woman with extremely thick, curly/wavy black hair and wore a colorful scarf in her hair. Beyond rude and unprofessional. The host was clearly new and that behavior by servers just standing around put a horrible taste in my mouth. Do better. read more
