    Their sandwiches never disappoint. Eggs are fluffy and the bread is nice and toasty. Waited about 10 minutes but honestly, it's worth it.

    The Scramble sub with American Cheese
    Megan T.

    After a long weekend of cooking, I was craving a breakfast sandwich to start my week on a good note. On a Monday, it's a nice and quiet atmosphere. I liked that I could order on a tablet and not talk to anyone yet as I was still waking up. I ordered The Scramble egg sando and it was delicioussss. Fluffy, toasty and a had a spicy kick from the sauce! The carmelized onions added a nice earthy component and I believe the buns had a light sweetness to it. The only thing I could see balancing out the flavor profiles would be a refreshing component, maybe some greens? But I'd definitely recommend and order again. It was ready in about fifteen minutes and brought to my table, which was sweet of them as I wasn't expecting that. There's only a few tables inside but there's some picnic table spots outside, perfect for groups or if you bring your pet along!

    Tell me why I am the first one to arrive at 7:00 am this morning Wednesday, August 12th and my guava matcha has no hint of pink like the picture. Who's the owner or manager here watching over the crew at the beginning of their shift??? I mean it's totally green! I will bring this to work and see what's going on. Customer service is blah, not even a good morning or a smile!!! At 7:30 am sipped on my guava matcha and I hardly taste any guava. I just got scammed of my $6. Seriously That's crazy yo' what happened to this place. Not coming back here. And the eggy is not worth the dollar and some change that mason jar is literally a joke. Sorry that's just my POV. Want customers to keep coming back, this isn't how you do it. Dude, eating my sandwich now! Didn't have time to eat it for breakfast and the money i paid for avocado isn't inside!!! That's crazy. Maybe the kitchen crew needs to stop talking and focus on the customers order. I'll have to call the manager! $21 for two items and no one is answering the phone at 12:45 pm right now.

    Can't go wrong with a Hot "The Chik" sandwich! The store is clean and the cooks know how to create a breakfast you'll enjoy. The quality of service was good too! :)

    The Scramble
    Gina N.

    Went here on Friday morning after a run with my friend. It wasn't busy and we ordered on the kiosk. We both ordered The Scramble and I also added bacon to mine. She got a hot coffee and I got an iced matcha latte. It was quite fast, we got our food in 10 mins. Can't go wrong with a scrambled egg sandwich :) The matcha could be better though! I felt like the taste wasn't as strong as I like.

    Egghead Sando Cafe is located in the same plaza as CVS and Lucky's, which makes it super convenient and close to home. I've only ordered takeout from here since I prefer bringing it home to enjoy. We ordered three sandwiches, two fries, and two drinks. Each item came neatly packed in its own paper takeout box, which made everything easy and mess-free to eat. At first glance, the sandwiches looked huge because of the oversized buns, but I appreciated that they balanced it out with just as generous a portion of fillings. The fries were good, both the criss-cut fries and the tater tots stayed crispy even after the drive home. The two drinks looked beautiful, but they were slightly watered down, and the strawberries weren't as sweet or ripe as I had hoped.

    The sandwiches are still delicious: the Side Chic and the Ultimate Breakfast did not disappoint. The sausage on the Ultimate Breakfast was good. And the Arugula and Chicken in the Side Chic was flavorful and delicious. The egg was a nice add as well. We also ordered a hot and iced House Coffee which was made through a pour over. The coffee was not strong enough for our taste. The service was reasonably fast. And the ambiance was simple and clean

    Ultimate Sando Waffle Fries Tater Tots Pineapple Cucumber Green Tea Pink dream
    Josh A.

    I was looking for a good breakfast sandwich spot and came across this place while browsing Yelp. The reviews looked solid, so we decided to give it a try. I ordered the Ultimate Sando with an extra sausage patty, bacon , waffle fries, and the pineapple cucumber tea. Honestly, it was just okay definitely not worth the price in my opinion. My girlfriend ordered the Ultimate Sando with just sausage and bacon since she's picky, and she agreed the sandwiches were pretty average. The fries and tots were good, and the drinks were definitely a highlight. Overall, we ended up spending close to $80, so just a heads up that this place is on the pricey side. Service was good we ordered through a kiosk, and the staff was friendly. The space is clean and laid back, but a bit small, so if it's busy you may end up eating outside. Overall, it was worth trying once, but I probably wouldn't come back.

    Ultimate Sando and Hawaiian Morning
    Danny W.

    We ordered some breakfast sandwiches to go. We ordered the Ultimate sando and the Hawaiian morning and both were delicious. I did enjoy the Hawaiian the best because they used a thick slice of spam and eggs were cooked perfectly. Overall, this a great option if you're craving some breakfast sandwiches.

    First time to egghead Sando Café and it really hit the spot. I went with the Ultimate Sando a massive hot and delicious breakfast sandwich. I'm excited to try other items. : ) Anthonyxibarrax

    Eggy Tater Tots

    Prepare to wait about 30 mins. And the drinks??? We wouldn't get again. Got the Vietnamese coffee which was just condense milk.. strawberry matcha and honey matcha, both honestly really bad. I got the eggy which was the potatoes & pouched egg, REALLY good, Didn't think I'd like it but very good and light. My bf got a sandwich with scrambled eggs and bacon, very big sandwich but flavorful! Staff was not that welcoming but answered questions we had.

    The Chic Sandwich
    Andrew Y.

    Definitely one of my favorite places to eat. Service is fast and everyone there is nice. I always get The Chic. It's a fried chicken sandwich with an egg, and the chicken is always huge. It's bigger than the bun, so I get to take a few bites of just the chicken before I eat the sandwich as a whole. The chicken has a flavor similar to Taiwanese fried chicken, and works amazingly with the egg. This is all also under $15 which is pretty good for the South Bay. For their drinks, I've tried their Kyandi and strawberry hojicha. Neither of them were anything that blew me away. They were average, not amazing, so that brings the score down a little. Overall, I'd rate this place a 8.5/10. The chicken sandwich is phenomenal, and at a great price. Maybe the other drinks are better, but the drinks are just ok which brings down the score but this is definitely a place I'll frequent

    Sorry, this update is long overdue. Multiple visits to Egghead Sando Cafe, and every time everything has been fabulous! Food and drinks are all high quality, fresh, and delicious. That Eggy is amazing! I love all of their chicken sandwiches, and of course the tater tots are crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. Yum, making me drool just thinking about everything. One note, don't go afterwork for dinner-they will be closed. Think breakfast, brunch, and lunch. Once you order, you'll get text updates letting you know where you are in the queue.

When walking, we missed the restaurant initially because this place is clearly, a hidden gem, especially being hidden along the nightclub strip. We were blown away by the curated vibes. From the thoughtful decor to The Office being projected on the wall. It felt hip, fresh and refined. We decided to craft our own drinks - Arnold Palmers, his favorite. But they only had sparkling lemonade, which actually made it even better. We shared a salad that had some cooked pears and squash alongside the greens, walnuts, cranberries and blue cheese. I do feel like the cooked sweet elements overpowered the salad with their sweetness and textures a bit. Wondering if a refreshing pear for crunch or more dressing could have brightened it up and provided a salty, sweet balance. I ordered the Short Ribs with a parsnip purée and roasted carrots and it did not disappoint. Everything paired beautifully together, perfectly salted and cooked. I finished the entire plate. Dad got the Pork Chop and while it was overcooked, he loved the flavors happening in the dish and was pleasantly surprised by the refreshing treatment of the kale. The staff was attentive and very friendly. Overall a great experience. We would definitely come back!

Seeing this as a customer discourages me to make requests, as it almost feels like our presence is an inconvenience to our bartender/server. The customer service experience here was terrible and my biggest recommendation to this establishment is to hire people who are willing to provide a comfortable experience to customers, as opposed to individuals who will throw man-fits for working at 11 AM.
