My wife and I first discovered Eggcited a few months ago. Located near Petra, one of our favorite TexMex spots, we were drawn to it when we discovered it was locally owned. Since then, we've had brunch there 3 or 4 times, and every time has been a delight. We've spoke to the owner, a very friendly Armenian gentlemen whose cousin is also involved with the restaurant, as is the owner's daughter and others. Plus, he's been in the restaurant business for over 30 years, and a number of the employees have been with him for many years. Bottom line, the guy knows how to run a business. Be warned, though, as others have mentioned, there will be a line, and there's no phoning ahead, going online etc. You'll speak to the man with the clipboard, that's the owner. He'll put your name down and find you when it's your turn. The system works, and it's great. But what of the food? We've brought friends and family and between us all, have sampled easily a dozen dishes or more. My latest brunch was the chicken fried steak, and I ordered it kind of half breakfast, half lunch style. I wanted hashbrowns (extra crispy, and boy, were they delivered that way!) but also wanted fried okra, our server accepted the order with a smile. The steak was tender, well coated with golden brown and delicious crust, and the gravy was thick and well seasoned. Eggs were light and fluffy, and one can see from my picture, those hashbrowns were surely extra crispy. We've also sampled a number of the shop made desserts, and they have all been phenomenal. Bottom line, this is a great locally owned and operated business, where the owner is literally involved and working the floor every day, and they're really doing everything right.
The wait was in wild, BUT the vibes were lovely, the service was a 10/10 and the food was delicious. My husband and I waited about 45 minutes and as soon as we got seated, our server greeted us, got us our drinks, and food order placed super quick! I got the avocado toast with a vanilla latte and it was so good. My husband got the traditional and enjoyed it as well. Definitely a great brunch spot as long as you are able to get seated in a reasonable time frame. They serve coke products which is always a 10/10 for us as most brunch places serve Pepsi so YAY!
What a wonderful way to start your Sunday morning! The owner/manager was at the door ushering us in with a warm welcome and some friendly chat. We were then seated quickly and Patricia took our order. She did this with a big smile and some cordial conversation and a big welcome as this was our first time here! And served us fresh hot coffee to start with! I ordered the Classic breakfast with sunny side up eggs, hash browns, chicken apple sausage and side of sourdough toast while the better half ordered the Chorizo skillet with scrambled eggs and side of sourdough toast . Both were prepared fantastically with the freshest of ingredients and served piping hot. And we ordered the OJ (sublime!!!) along with it on Patricia's recommendation ! Best breakfast in a long time! Early morning made for a quiet ambience and we walked out happy and sated, ready to start the Sunday with a bang! Coming back soon !
This place was surprisingly and pleasantly amazing. Went in for brunch and had the cowboy omelet. I ordered for my two sides hash-browns and pancakes. Not sure what they do for their pancakes but they were magical. The portion sizes were plentiful, service was great and no complaints from me. My daughter had the pork carnitas bowl and it too was amazing. The meat super tender and everything cooked nicely. The avocado was a nice touch and helped plate the dish very well.
A family owned restaurant in a cute up and coming shopping center. Yes please! I came here this past weekend with other yelpers and was pleased with the entire experience. The wait on a Saturday was about 15 minutes. Service was fantastic with the friendly family "we got you" vibe that I loved. The waitress suggested the breakfast tacos with shredded chicken, which I probably wouldn't have chosen on my own, and I'm glad she recommended it. So good. The hashbrowns were perfect. I took a piece of the red velvet cheesecake home and thank you for that. It was perfect. I will dream of that dessert often. If you are in McKinney don't sleep on this cute diner/restaurant serving up yummy food.
Food OMG! It's delicious and the place super cute. Customer service 11/10 our server was amazing. We will be definitely going back.
Since my first review, I have been to Eggcited countless times. It's very close to us, and the service, cleanliness, and the food never dissapoints! I always look at the Breakfast Tacos on the menu and debate if I want to order it or not, and I don't order because I am more of a traditional breakfast person - Omelet, Benedict, pancakes.. Yesterday I finally ordered it, and it was the best decision! Brust of flavor in every bite! Absolutely delicious! If you're indecisive about the tacos, just get it, it won't disappoint! Also tried the Croissant Beignets, which comes with a side of Nutella and Raspberry jam - also delicious! I am more of a chocolate person so I thought I would like the Nutella more, but to much surprise, I liked it more with the Raspberry sauce. Both of these items will be a repeat order for us!
Be ready for a wait -- but it's absolutely worth it! We waited about 40 minutes and still left completely happy. While we were there, I was amazed to see people walk in, accept a 60-minute wait with a smile, and gladly stick around. We loved everything we ordered -- from the biscuits and gravy and the beignets to the chicken and waffles and the eggs Benedict. Every dish was fantastic. The service is excellent, the owners are onsite, and you can tell this place is truly a labor of love. They put so much care into everything they do. There's a full bar, and even though it was busy, the bartenders were incredibly attentive. They didn't make you fight for attention -- they were proactive, checking in with people away from the bar and making sure everyone had what they needed. I just wish this place was closer -- we'd be here all the time!
The first thing we noticed was that everyone seemed truly happy! Staff greeted us enthusiastically, although there was a short wait during Sunday lunch. While we waited, we overheard a woman praising everything, which raised our expectations. It was tough to choose because their menu was so extensive, but I decided to go with the Cowboy Omelet, and it was very delicious! The food arrived quickly and was steaming hot. Everything about this place was excellent, and even though it's a bit of a drive, we'll definitely be back!
We brought a group of about 20-30 people (including a few little ones) to Egg-cited Brunch House, and the team couldn't have handled it better. We'd emailed ahead to reserve space, but when we showed up needing even more seats, Art, the GM, didn't miss a beat--he quickly rearranged things so we could all stay together. Our servers, Kelly and Olivia, were amazing--friendly, organized, and completely unflappable. Despite the size of our group, the food came out fast, every order was spot on, and everything was fresh and delicious. It's not easy to pull off a brunch that big with such great service and smiles all around. Huge thanks to Art, Kelly, and Olivia for making our morning smooth, tasty, and genuinely enjoyable. We'll definitely be back!
We came on a Saturday brunch time and it was packed with a large wait. Luckily there were 2 seats available at the bar which was open seating. I ordered the avocado lox toast which came with a little too much avocado but still good overall. It came with 2 eggs and instead of fruit I got hashbrowns. The bartender made a pretty killer Bloody Mary and espresso martinis. The bar was pretty small and felt crowded but just due to all the people waiting to be seated. There was a decent parking lot in front of the restaurant. I don't think they take reservations which is why there were so many people waiting. But otherwise had a pleasant experience.

Ambiance: 4 STARS It's a cute and quirky restaurant, but charming and quaint. I loved the fake egg plant. Some of the decor is so adorable and fun. I really like the vibe and energy. The neutral tones and colors are very nice. It's cozy and welcoming. Service: 4 STARS My waitress was pleasant enough. They are super busy, but they manage the customers and crowds well. The gentleman working the list for waiting is funny and friendly. He keeps everything organized, Food: 4 STARS The croissant sandwich was good. The croissant itself was soft and flaky. The bacon was cooked well and the fried egg was cooked perfectly. The grits were just ok. The butter and sugar helped, but wasn't a fan. Drinks: 4 STARS The mimosa board is cute. You can get four mimosas priced fairly. The pineapple flavor was great. The orange was not real orange juice so it was a NO. The pour is definitely heavier on the champagne side so that's a bonus. Overall it was enjoyable and my experience was good. I love the name EGG-CITED it's a fantastic restaurant name. read more

Easily one of the most efficiently run restaurants in all of DFW -- breakfast or otherwise. We've visited several times at different hours, and there's always a wait (even for the bar), but it moves fast thanks to their seamless operations, clearly great communication, and there's ample outdoor seating during the wait. It's a family-owned spot, and many staff have been there since day one. You can feel the pride and rhythm -- service is friendly, lightning-fast, and flawlessly coordinated. The dining room is bustling with energy but everyone seems genuinely happy to be there, which makes you happy to be there. Food-wise, literally everything's a hit. The steak and eggs are an unreal value -- think steakhouse quality, not diner-grade. Skillets are my personal favorite and loaded with flavor, omelets are football-sized and perfectly fluffy, and the bacon is always crispy. Bonus points for the bar: Unlike many breakfast joints, they have a liquor license, and have $9 mimosas and espresso martinis that are as beautiful as they are delicious. Lastly, the people make the place. From server to bartender and host to busser, everyone treats you like a regular: cheerful, welcoming, and even remembering your name as you head out the door. read more

We decided to check out Eggcited after driving by this spot a few times before! We went for a late labor day brunch around 10:30-11 AM and this places was PACKED! When we got there we were immediately greeted (by who i believe is the very kind regular bartender!) and put on the wait list and promised a 30-45 minute wait for a table. Since we were both off today we opted to wait for the table instead of going somewhere else since the reviews seemed promising! We waited with the crowd outside for 30 minutes and then wandered inside once it started to get hotter. The staff were HUSTLING to clean and turnover tables as fast as they could and as promised we were seated around 40-45 minutes later. This place was super cute and the food did not disappoint! My husband got the short rib benny and it was absolutely delicious! The short rib was tender and the benny was perfectly cooked! The jalapeños and chipotle hollandaise do pack a punch so be sure you like the spice or may be take off the jalapeños! I got the cowboy omelette and it did not disappoint! The eggs were fluffy and had a generous of portion of meats and cheese! I added their signature hot sauce for the perfect add of spiciness! The hash browns were also cooked to perfection! We got a side of the banana nutella pancakes and while the plating was beautiful the pancakes were a little disappointing! The pancake was a bit dense instead of the light and fluffy texture I was expecting! The vanilla latte was good but had a bit of an artificial vanilla taste (almost a little like vanilla extract)! I feel like the vanilla would be good in a cocktail instead of coffee so i'm sure they use the same syrup for both! Overall the place was great and we will definitely be back to try more of the menu!! read more

Service was great and food was great. The portions are huge, so be careful when ordering. The coffee was good as well. The restaurant was clean and bright read more
Eggcited is a nice little restaurant nestled in a beautiful neighborhood off University. It's easy to miss so you have to look for it, but their breakfast is well worth it. I had the chorizo breakfast burrito with a side of grits and a fresh squeezed orange juice. First of all, the juice was actually fresh squeezed and not some type of hybrid between concentrate and fish squeezed like some restaurants use, it was delicious. The breakfast burrito was good sized, excellent flavor with just enough crunch from the green peppers. Their salsa was very tasty, not any heat, definitely a gringo salsa, but really good. Their name brand salsa on the table wasn't my favorite, it's missing something no I can't put my finger on it. Service was excellent and friendly, all around a good experience, I will be back!! read more
We were playing food roulette and somehow selected this place. First off this place is a cozy cafe with a warm atmosphere. Without hesitation, the staff immediately seated us and took our drink order and food orders. In less than ten minutes our food order was at the table even though the restaurant was almost completely full. The food was on point! I was surprised by how good the food tastes and the large portion size. I highly recommend this place! The location is great, the staff was awesome, the food was on point and the price was very reasonable. read more

REGRET NOT COMING SOONER! Food - AMAZING!! Service - TOP NOTCH!! We kept eyeing this place and decided to give it a try. The food is amazing - from presentation to taste to quantity - All of it was perfect! Our server, Patricia, was very attentive, super friendly and knowledgeable - Definitely on it! Lastly, the owner, Tim, came by and introduced himself, which is always a huge plus. It's a real testament of how a place is ran and operated (and its success) when care and compassion is shown to all of its patrons. GREAT PLACE, COME TRY IT! read more

My friends took me here for my birthday and we had an amazing time! This place was fantastic. The service was phenomenal. It's a family local place. It was packed. The owner was so nice and it seemed everyone knew him. I loved the family environment and the sense of everyone knowing each other. The food was very good and delicious. Mimosas were perfect- 3 drops of juice! Yes! I cannot wait to return! Check it out!! read more

From the moment this brunch house opened, every experience has been fantastic. We live in the neighborhood and have the pleasure of eating here often. It is a family owned business and as a guest they make you feel like family as well. Every dish we have ever ordered has been great. I especially love the avocado toast and my husband loves the Gyro omelette. Today I had the crabcake Benedict, instead of an English muffin it comes on a pita, a nice change to a traditional dish. read more

It was a great experience to be honest. First the scenery was great customer service was good too. When it came to food it was in-between but maybe that's on me, their dishes was okay, their waffles were amazing, their eggs, it was good they just had to re do mine, and the harsh brown I think they were good if you like harsh browns just not for me! But overall 8/10 great place! read more

I was so hungry but had to pause to be sure I snapped a photo. I was hesitant about the chicken sausage but this was such a great meal! I would definitely get this again. Eggs were perfect, not dry and not runny. The amount of food for the price is such a great value. The sourdough bread was delicious and I'm taking the leftovers! Such a great brunch place. Be prepared to wait during peak hours but it's for sure worth it. Grab a White Russian at the bar! read more
Visiting again from Florida and had another wonderful brunch with wife, son and granddaughter. Tim is always upfront with his awesome team of daughters. We love their Eggs Benedict. This time had the Crab and also the Shrimps. Both truly savory delicious. The omelette is huge and the Cheesy Grits and Pancakes are the real thing. Our Server was again Patricia. Super friendly and caring. Great Coffee (Miami level!) The food is special but the experience here is even better. Thanks for Caring! read more
EggCited is a very comfortable, roomy, and weekend brunch place. Service is very friendly. It has a very large menu with classic brunch foods and more and comes in pretty large servings but it was overall an enjoyable place! read more
Everything was awesome down to the name of the restaurant that gave me a few chuckles! We came in for a birthday brunch, and I had a mimosa, which was a great balance between barely any juice and champagne. Just the way I like it. I'm not a huge breakfast person, so I ended up getting a grilled chicken wrap that had more of a Southwest flavoring to it. It was very good. Very fresh sauces were great and from scratch. My husband got a skillet which was actually very delicious. I'm not a big skillet fan, but it was a good amount of spice and they had fresh jalapeños which you don't find often. They don't do birthday cake, but they did surprise me with a birthday pancake like dish. That was absolutely delicious. I would definitely go back if I was in the area. read more
