I love the Egghead Sando location at Communication Hill and was super excited to see they opened one closer to me here in the Rivermark Plaza. I got the Chic which is a fried chicken sandwich with a fried egg, arugula, and a dressing with a little kick to it. The piece of chicken that I got was huge nearly double the size of the bun! I also got the strawberry matcha latte. It was not my favorite. The chunks were too big and kept getting stuck in the straw. I know these drinks are usually made layered so they look aesthetic and you have to mix it on your own, but it was so hard to mix with the flimsy straw. I think next time I will just stick with the sandwiches and get drinks somewhere else. Also, if you order on the tablet, it will charge you a additional fee versus if you order with the staff it doesn't charge you a fee. But be prepared to ring the and wait a little bit because usually they only have one person on staff. read more

Egghead Sando Cafe - Fast Food Near Me - Santa Clara, California

Small quaint store where you order from a kiosk and wait for your order to be called. 40 mins of waiting. See confirmation texts attached. I should have known it would've been like that. A gentleman before me went up to the window and stated he waited 30 minutes for his food. I feel like I only got called cause I asked about my food. Since they were calling numbers that were 6 numbers after my order... their orders included more items than mine so I thought something was strange. Strawberry matcha: 2/10 Not flavorful at all. Strawberry puree (?) seemed very artificial tasting. Didn't taste like matcha at all. Don't order it? Save your calories & money. Ultimate sando: 6/10 Good portions of meat, sauce was delicious. Lower rating due to hangry rating The chic: 5/10 The crispy fried chicken had a good crunch but it lacked a sauce. I ate the entire sando thinking man this really needs a sauce...come to find out that there was sauce at the END of the sandwich. Last two bites. By that point I was over it. read more

I haven't tried the food at this location, only the drinks, and overall, they weren't particularly memorable. I ordered a matcha latte, and my friend ordered a fruit tea. Both drinks were decent, but nothing really stood out. The matcha latte was very creamy, which I enjoyed, but it didn't have anything unique that would make me come back specifically for it. The interaction with staff is minimal. You self order at the kiosk and then pick up your order at a tiny window. There aren't that many seats. Most of the seats were taken by customers and door dashers waiting to recieve their pick up order. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here for drinks but I was near then I'd consider stopping by. read more

I love the Chic sandwich here! It's a Taiwanese style fried chicken sandwich and I'm all for it! The flavoring is just like popcorn chicken, and having it in a sandwich form is quite unique! Ingredients are fresh and the sandwich comes out hot. Love their drinks as well -- their hojicha is yum! read more

Egghead Sando Cafe - The Chic Sandwich - Fast Food Near Me - Santa Clara, California

Went here about 2 or 3 times and it has always been yummy! The service is fast and there is always a table available even though there can be traffic. There is ample amount of parking as well. Our favorite item to order is the BEC and tater tots. The drinks there is not the best but get the job done if you need caffeine. Would definitely go back again if I am in the area! read more

All the sandwiches were massive and super filling. I'd had the scramble before, so that was my usual go-to, but some of the sandwiches were new to me. Everything tasted great, though I do wish they came with pickles or something acidic to help cleanse the palate because the sandwiches can get a little dry and heavy after a while, especially with all the eggs. The drinks looked beautiful, but the matcha was too gritty and bitter for my taste. The hojicha had a similar bitterness and ended up tasting pretty watery. read more

My friend and I came here for brunch on a Saturday, and it wasn't too busy even though it was prime brunch hour! The food came out really fast! I had the eggy and the waffle fries, and it was a really good combo! The egg paste thingie that comes with the eggy is definitely more than the slices of bread it came with, so I used the waffle fries as a base, and it was a really good combo! Highly recommend! For drinks, I got the matcha coffee latte, which was really good and strong! My friend had the iced hojicha, which did taste a bit watery when I tried a sip. 5 stars because my friend and I were in there for 3 hours catching up, and no one made us leave hahaha. read more

I have been wanting to try this spot for a while. Finally had time to grab one. I ordered the chicken egg sando and tots. The sandwich was lacking a bit in flavor but was overall good and crispy, but the bun was very dense and felt like it was old bread. Was a bit disappointed because the sando was $13 The tater tots was really good very fresh and crispy. Had a good spicy aïoli. When I ordered I did it though the kiosk, and didn't really have to talk to anyone. Food came out quick. Vibe of a coffee shop very clean. read more

The food is great. But the attitude and willingness to help out is nonexistent. First and foremost what business does not take orders over the phone. Secondly when I explained that their website is not working properly. They then direct me to make purchase through DoorDash where they charge you additional fees and charges. Please do better. read more

Was working at the Northside branch library and got a little hungry so I mobile ordered a sandwich from Egghead. I was excited to try the 'Scramble' sandwich. It was surprisingly tasty, not sure if it was because I was starving after depleting my energy from work, or if it was truly a mean sandwich, but one thing for sure is that it was pretty tasty! It is as simple as can be; scrambled eggs, cheese, mayo, and caramelized onions. Actually, it was the CARAMELIZED ONIONS that made the sandwich stand out from other breakfast sandwiches. It paired perfectly with the mayo and and fluffy eggs. Plus, the brioche bun was was really TASTY! It was light, fluffy, but also had a great chew! It seemed like this place had more mobile orders than in-person diners. The inside of the restaurant was clean, almost giving an "untouched" vibe. Right as you walk into the restaurant, you can order at the register, but if you mobile ordered, you need to walk a little further to the pick up area. They keep the orders behind the counter so you need to let them know of the name and order to pick your food up. read more

I honestly give it a 3.5. I ordered the breakfast burger trying to keep a certain level of protein in my diet. The service was pretty responsive it took between 5 to 10 minutes. The sandwich came with a nice soft bun, nice beef patty, eat medium and arugula. There were sauce options I did not choose because of restrictions I've placed upon myself. I would say all in all the sandwich was well put together and left me satisfied for the duration of the day. read more

Plenty parking available with extra parking spots in the garage. First time trying this place and easy to place order with kiosk. Have both Indoor and Outdoor seating. Interior looks cool. Pretty heavy lunch for sure, may be worth to have this for brunch. read more

I think this place is over hyped. I was disappointed. I rate it 2.5 stars overall. Seems like to-go orders such as Uber eats and door dash take priority. There was not even a long line when I ordered. I ordered the chicken sandwich, waffle fries and strawberry matcha. I waited a long time for my food. Roughly around 30 minutes I had to wait an additional 15-20 minutes for my matcha. It did not come out with my order. I saw many drink offers pilled up waiting to be picked up. By the time I sat down to eat my food it has been an hour since I ordered. The bun of my sandwich was burned. The chicken was okay. Reminded me of popcorn chicken. The scrambled eggs were a little runny. Too wet for my liking. I think the sandwich would be better without the eggs. Overall it was just meh. The waffle fries were good. The standout of the meal. The strawberry matcha tasted gritty. Overpriced for the quality of the drink. The tables were sticky and dirty. I really wanted to like this place. read more

I wasn't sure about this spot. Everything looks very pretty in pictures, but the ratings were mixed. After trying Egghead, I kinda get it. The sandwich was decent, but it wasn't even warm enough to melt the cheese they put on it, and it cost A LOT for how much food you get. The strawberry matcha was a better value, though. The restaurant itself is kinda strange. You basically don't see the staff. They are hidden off somewhere in a room in the back, prepping orders. They occasionally pop out to call out an order. It kinda makes for a strange dining experience. I'm not really sure I'd go back. I don't think the experience and quality quite justifies the price. read more

Feels bad. Close to a 3.5 stars but not quite. The good: A huge amount of food. Taters tasted great. Sandwiches were very big. Piles and piles of taters, I couldn't finish half. The Meh: Flavor was very bland, even the sausage of the ultimate had less flavor than a Egg McMuffin. The price was very high. $23 for a sandwich & side. Fun to try once. read more

My husband and I stopped by Egg Sando Cafe and decided to share the Ultimate Sando with a side of tater tots--and WOW. It was bomb asf. The sando was stacked, flavorful, perfectly balanced, and seriously satisfying. Every bite hit--soft bread, rich eggs, savory goodness all around. And the tater tots? Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, seasoned just right. The kind of tots you keep "just one more"-ing until they're gone. Simple menu, big flavor, zero disappointment. This is definitely one of those places you crave after your first visit. We demolished everything and would 100% come back for more. If you're in San Jose and love a solid egg sando, this spot is a MUST. read more

First time visiting this Egghead branch. It was located in the Rivermark plaza. We ordered the Ultimate Sando and Scramble Sandwich to go for a picnic. Both came with 3 scrambled eggs! The bread was soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. The Ultimate Sando also came with sausage and a generous portion of avocado slices. The sauce was creamy and a little spicy. The Scrambled Sandwich was similar to Ultimate Sando except that there was no sausage or avocado. I'd highly recommend the Scramble Sandwich if you like eggs! The restaurant was small with a few seats indoor. Ordering was self serve on the kiosk. There were a few more seats outside and plenty of parking in the plaza. read more

The food wasn't super flavorful and was quite overpriced. The interior design was nice though.

Stopped by Egghead Sando Cafe for a Saturday morning breakfast and was pleasantly surprised! left full and happy :). As a vegetarian, I was a little bummed that there was only one meatless option (the Scramble) but luckily, it delivered. The eggs were perfectly cooked and paired well with the slightly sweet brioche bun. Super satisfying. The tater tots were amazing!! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, salty, they were seriously addictive. I also tried the rose latte, which was paired well with the food, not too sweet. Ordering is done through a kiosk, so there's not much interaction with staff. Indoor seating is spacious and comfy, but outdoor tables are limited. I went right at opening on a Saturday and had no problem parking, though the lot is pretty small. Prices are reasonable, portions are generous, and overall it's a solid breakfast spot read more

Egghead Sando Cafe - The Scramble Sandwich - Fast Food Near Me - Santa Clara, California

A local chain you would expect to be good based on appearances and their eggs specialty, but consistently falls flat. "Meh" is a word that comes up. I gather that they're aiming to be a foodie destination like Egg Slut (in LA area and Vegas) but nowhere near as consistently tasty or crave worthy. I've had Egghead a few times and each time the seasoning is off -- often times actually under seasoned it seems and I'm someone who doesn't even need much seasoning overall. Their sides are also bland and at times stale. And one time I even had eggshell in my sandwich. Everything is on the pricier side too. There's really no reason for me to visit any of the locations after trying to like them on multiple occasions. read more

In the Rivermark area of Santa Clara there aren't many choices for breakfast, let alone breakfast sandwiches so Egghead Sando Cafe is worth the visit. The store is clean, vibrant and offers indoor and outdoor seating, bathroom for customers, self serve water, and self serve ordering and pick up window. I ordered the "Side Chic" sandwich: grilled chicken (a little too heavy on the season salt for me, but I'm sure others would welcome it), egg over medium, bacon, arugula, on brioche bun. It was a huge sandwich! You'll definitely need a knife to enjoy half at time. I wish plates were offered for dine-in. The tater tots seem pricey on the menu, but you get a lot! Enough for 2-3 people. The tots were perfectly hot and crispy. There's a great selection of drinks so make sure to try one with your sando. It'll totally up your experience! read more

What I like about Egghead sandos are that their serving is is that their serving size is great. For every sando their fried chicken is HUGE! Plus, it's still got the perfect crunch and juiciness inside. Yesyes. Usually I'm not a really big matcha fan, but this one changed the game. Loved the tart strawberry jam that combine well with the matcha taste. I want to add that there wasn't a lot of seating available, so I had to sit outside. The thing is, the seats and tables outside were dirty. If you go and sit outside, use wipes to wipe down all surfaces. Peace! read more

I've tried Egghead at the old Cupertino location before it closed down and thought it was quite good and wanted to try this location. I got The Scramble and it was solid. Eggs were fluffy and it also had cheese, grilled onions, chives, and spicy bun. I like how these are on brioche buns! Took a little while for food to come out. Handful of tables inside and outside. read more

This place was always our go to when we aren't sure what brunch stuff to get. The last 2 times of take out has been super meh. This last time they gave us the wrong sandwich, we got a Hawaiian but no spam, just a regular burger. And the hojicha latte was really badly watered down. We tired to rescue it with milk at home and it was not possible. Guess we'll take a break from y'all for now. read more

Egghead is a great option for breakfast sandwiches. This location has a cute and small interior. There are seats available if you wanted to sit in or do some work. The sandwiches are pretty thick which makes it so filling and worth the price. The pineapple cucumber green tea was nice and refreshing. I tasted the green tea with subtle aftertastes of cucumber. The pineapple was very very light. I was surprised how well cucumber matches green tea and it's unique. I usually order the chic or eggy. I went with the chic and added caramelized onions to it. The onions weren't caramelized enough for my liking. They were still white rather than translucent and brown. Tater tots were normal. I'm a huge sauce guy and it tasted a lot better with ketchup. The exterior was nice and crunchy with a chew. The portion is pretty big too, my container was full of tots. If you're looking for a fulfilling breakfast and Egghead is open, you'll definitely get full here. read more

We have been eyeing up this cafe for a while, and it honestly hit the spot and exceeded our expectations. We got the ultimate sando and the BEC, and they were both amazing breakfast sandwiches.

I definitely recommend trying and this was great hangover food. read more

I've wanted to try this spot for a while now but never got around to it since it's out of the way for us and it ended up being super underwhelming and not worth the drive in my opinion... When we walked in there was essentially no one working at the counter, everything's just ordered at the kiosk & I understand most places are like this now but sometimes it's just nice to interact with the servers and ask for recommendations. We ordered the breakfast burger and tater tots to share since we weren't sure if we'd like the spot. The food was lukewarm at best, the burger was just okay - I didn't really see the appeal or anything special about it. The tater tots were the worst part. The tots were cold and tasted stale as if they were fried previously and just left sitting there waiting for the next unlucky soul to order (unfortunately that was us). Honestly not sure if we'd return. read more

03/17/2024 around 12 Came here for a small lunch break w a friend. Ordered the burger on the kiosk and the staff made the burger and placed it on the pick up table. There were a lot of tables to sit at and it's very bright inside. The burger was slightly disappointing. The bread was dry and I low key didn't like the veggies it came with ( I don't know what they are called). At least the patty was not too dry. Overall it was okay, nothing wow read more

I was in the area to go to my sauna appointment nearby, and I needed some food to fuel myself since I worked out prior. This is my second time coming here and now I can give my review. First off, location is great. It's on the corner when you enter more into the plaza, close by the parking structure on your right. There's a LOT of parking so you won't have to worry about struggling to find any (unless it's very packed during the busy hours for any of the establishments). The inside is very minimalistic, very simple. Some plants for some cute interior decor. There are a few tables inside, but there are also some tables outside if you want to enjoy your meal outdoors when the weather is beautiful. You can order with the cashier or use their kiosk, which is great if it gets busy. I ordered the Chic sandwich and the strawberry matcha latte w/ oat milk. The sandwich was delicious. The chicken was grilled very well, juicy, and the seasoning they used very much tasted similar to Taiwanese popcorn chicken (the five spice seasoning). The bun was soft, and I like the chimichurri. It flavored well with the chicken and greens. As for the latte, I thought it was refreshing. I liked how pretty the layers were before mixing them all together. You honestly can't go wrong with a strawberry and matcha combination. Very delicious profile. Everyone was very friendly and the environment felt welcoming and warm, matching with the tasty food they cook up. Worth going to if you're in the area! read more

I've gone to this location a number of times that I am surprised I haven't written a review yet. I always get the eggy without bacon when I go with a side of tater tots. Ordering through their kiosk is a breeze. Your number gets called when your order is ready. It never takes too long for my food to be ready. There are limited seats inside but usually plenty of seats outside. Plenty of parking in the large plaza as well. read more

Loveeeee Egghead! I've probably been here 10+ times as it's super close and convenient. I've honestly never had any issues with my order. I always order ahead online and my order is usually ready within 20-30 minutes. The staff are always friendly and never seem to forget things within my order, which is a plus! I always usually get the regular chicken sandwich, the chick, and it's always consistently good! Large friend chicken that taste like Taiwanese style popcorn chicken that's just super large, yum! I get the tater tots which is big enough to split with 2-3 people as well. I recently tried their breakfast burger which was super delicious as well. Overall, I love this spot! Consistent and price is pretty good compared to other brunch or breakfast spots. Technically, you could get away splitting with the sandwich with someone but I never share because it's too delicious :) read more

I had a craving for Japanese egg sandwich. I came across this place while I was picking up from The Melt a week ago. They have a good sized menu. You primarily order from the kiosk or you can order online when you're on the go. Their place is small that seats under 20 people. I ordered the Breakfast Burger and it hit the spot. It's a really good place for a breakfast sandwich/burger. I'll have to try the BEC next time. read more

Food is always decent... However, I agree with the most recent reviews regarding cleanliness. It's a little frustrating to see responses from the owner addressing these issues but seeing no change. Every table was filthy, and the single table that seemed relatively clean had hair on it. A simple Clorox wipe wipedown would go a LOOOONG way (both indoor and outdoor tables). Please do better. If this is how your store presents, I can't imagine what the kitchen looks like. /: read more

I have LOVED this place for years and today I was so extremely disappointed that I will never step foot into an Egghead ever again. I just spent $50 on three little jars of the "eggy" and then asked for them for here which was clearly my first mistake. The employee who put my order in the window spilled the baguette all over the counter and proceeded to disrespectfully smile at me and scoop it back into the container... THE AUDACITY!! What if I wasn't watching her?? What if it was someone else's order who wasn't even paying attention? I have personally taken the food safety test myself and this place clearly has not. I actually had to ask the lady to make me fresh bread because I would not be accepting the one she carelessly smeared all over the dirty counter. I'm so sad because I loved the simple egg dish but now I am inspired to make my own and NEVER spend another dime at this establishment. If this is how they treat their paying customers when they are watching I am terrified to know what goes on behind closed doors at this place. This location gives Egghead a bad name!!! After the new bread was done which I had to insist on since she was trying to give me the same bread, I politely asked to speak to a manager to insure that someone at this place cares about proper food handling, and of course there is NO MANAGER ON DUTY. Shame on you owners/management of this Egghead!! You need to get your staff properly trained before the heath inspector shuts this location down! The lady had zero remorse and I had to practically force her to make me fresh bread that wasn't deliberately smashed against the counter... maybe she didn't know it was my order (as if that matters) but the audacity she had to act that way when we were the ONLY people in the cafe at the time. So gross. No attempt was made to apologize and it was clear that she thought this was funny and perhaps it happens all the time! Save your money and spend it where the customer is treated with respect and dignity. Not at a place where the employee rubs your food on the counter and laughs in your face!

Did I enjoy the eggs? Yes. Fresh and good tasting. This location at Rivermark plaza is right next to public parking lot, so it's easy to walk around. You can dine inside or outside. Self service kiosk available. Staffs are all inside the kitchen area. What I really liked was my matcha guava beverage. It wasn't overly sweet with bitter matcha like at most matcha spots. Taste was good. Most Vietnamese places making matcha beverages are too strong in matcha flavors. I can actually enjoy my guava juice with matcha here. The egghead salad I had was pretty darn good too, especially the cheesy egg and lots of arugula greens. Vinaigrette sweetened my salad which was awesome. Fresh! Yes, lots of tomatoes/cheese/bacon bits. The bacon bits were a bit too much on a salad for me though. Overall, good portion size. Vibes were quite inside. Not much noise here after 10:30am weekdays. People just grab and go. Public restroom is available. The upkeep is modern, but tables and chairs can use some cleaning and wiping down before lunch hour. Toss your own trash. Complimentary water is self service as well. Not bad. I did enjoy having a salad option since egghead sandwiches would be a bit too much for me sometimes. Guava matcha beverage was worth it. read more

Overall experience was okay, but I won't be going back. No one was at the front to greet people as they walked in. There were small sticky notes pointing to an electronic kiosk for people to order from. It was off to the side of the register so we didn't know at first if it was optional or to wait for someone to come from the back. No one ever came out so we ordered from the kiosk after a few minutes. Egg sandwich was a good size and the coffee was fine. I don't think it was worth the price however. For three egg sandwiches and three coffee drinks, the total was over $60. Additionally, I wish the place was a bit cleaner. The tables hadn't been wiped off between guests and there was quite a bit of dust on the ledges of the wood on the walls. read more
