Yep this place is not the same..food is basic. I could have made my philly cheese at home. This place used to be amazing what happened??

Haven't been here in a while so decided to give it another try. Wasn't busy at all, 3-4 tables at the most. We sat down and got water and coffee after about 5 minutes. Waited another 5-6 minutes before a waitress showed up. I had the California Benedict which was ok, not great. My colleague had the Chorizo and eggs. He wasn't pleased with the order. Had to ask for coffee twice and never did get refills. Employees were too focused on hanging the Christmas lights than taking care of their customers. Wasn't impressed with food or service. read more

I would say 4.5 stars if I could, this place is so good, I will show a little love and round up. The place is smaller, find your own seat, catered to breakfast which is my favorite meal, food is good, very casual, nice patio, attentive waitresses, friendly patrons, good specials, large portions. I would not recommend the huevos machacha, but it wasn't the worst I've ever had. All around good breakfast experience read more

Though the menu is pretty much the same at The Local Spot, its sister restaurant, I prefer The Local Spot because the staff their is more friendly/attentive. The waitress I had at Eggs Etc. seemed a little hungover. That said the food is still tasty! read more

Will NEVER go back to this place again! I stood outside today for over 25 minutes to have my "To Go Order" taken. Per Shannon, she could only take one order at a time. She knows me from coming there and having take outs. My last take out order (week prior) was not prepared as I asked for it. I brought the food back and was told to return at another time for another order, I said okay. Today (7/31/2020), I returned and placed the same order. Shannon took my order and never wrote it down, but I repeated twice to make sure she had it right. I am allergic to cheese and told her to make sure it does NOT have cheese. Upon picking up my order, Shannon stated to me, "I made sure your bacon is made crispy and the potatoes are not dry and burnt". I trusted her word and upon arriving home, what do you know, my order is covered in cheese. Now, this is the 2nd time they screw up my to go order. I called them and spoke with the Asian Female Owner. I informed her that they screwed up my order and she stated to bring it back. Upon my arrival, she asks to see my food and I showed her the screw up order. She starts by telling me that Shannon told to me to check my order. I told her that Shannon specifically told me that she made sure my food was made just the way I asked for it (I tipped her and left). The Asian Female Owner returns back to me, hands me the money for the cost and tells me "To Never Come Back here again" and leaves. No, I'm sorry, let's redo your order, NOTHING of such! Here I am trying to support the Local Long Beach Restaurants due to CV-19 and I get this kind of treatment. I was boiling. I kept my cool and left. I kept thinking on how people flip their lid when they are treated in this manner. I am an immigrant, hard working, got a piece of the "American Dream" graduated from College, have a decent job, pay my taxes, treat others with respect and here I am having another immigrant talking to me with anger and disgust. She walks up the stairs and leaves me outside standing in "Ah". I asked myself, "How are you going to get your frustration out and be heard"? Yelling is NOT the answer, Violence is out of the question, then it popped in my head, Go To Yelp and be heard!!! This is my first Yelp write-up ever. I got to know Ruth at Ruth's Country Kitchen on Anaheim Street and then at Egg, Etc. For the years going to her establishments, NOT once, was I ever treated in this manner by her or her staff. I DO NOT have pretty words and thoughts for this Immigrant Female Owner. But, I will NOT write them on here, Karma will be knocking on her door. Quote: Karma is a dish best served when it's COLD. And that will be her demise! I been living in Long Beach for over 28 years and the best cheapest Marketing Tool and word of mouth. Her are my last words: Hello Karen and Bye Felicia! read more

My wife and I decided to have breakfast at Eggs Etc. I ordered the hobo omlette with California Spuds (chopped fried potatoes with cheese, sour cream and avacado) and my wife had the veggie omlette. The hobo omlette was a disaster on a plate, everything was mixed together with the California Spuds, sour cream smeared everywhere. It was as if the cook just mixed everything together and threw some slop on a plate. I had to dig thru the sour cream to find my undercooked runny omlette, which consisited of half cooked bacon and sausage and whatever else they could find to ruin a simple omlette. My wife's extremely undercooked veggie omlette contained a RAW EGG YOLK in the center, which at first we both hoped was cheese. At this point we knew we had enough and demanded a refund. The server first asked if we would like to try something else on the menu, we declined and went right home. As I write this review, less than a hour after attempting to take a few bites of an Egg Etc. omlette. I can only look forward to luch today and having a nice meal somewwhere else to make up for that awful attempt at a breakfast and soon forget about the Nightmare On Redondo Ave. called Eggs Etc. read more

Such a delicious breakfast, I will recommend Eggs Etc. I love breakfast but would never go out of my way to get some... That is, until now. Eggs Etc. is my favorite place to get breakfast. When ordering, you should definitely think about getting something with eggs in it. The omelet was okay. The waffle with fruit was light and flavorful. There is seating inside and on the patio, I prefer the patio because the inside looks a little cramped. The service was great and our food came out very quickly. They were definitely good eats. read more

The serving portions are decent. It was packed on a Sunday but what good spot isn't. It's weird they don't have beer wine or alcohol. Always heard good things about it. Outside seating is very nice and inside is crowded. read more

Food wasnt bad, but the service really sucked. Their were 2 waitresses the younger one was really nice. The older one with the dyed black hair seemed like we were bothering her when we asked for a menu or even a refill on our coffee. The place wasnt busy (it was a rainy monday morning) and the table next to ours even commented to us on how rude she seemed. I probably wont be back for a long time if ever because of her rotten attitude. read more

Ambience - very home-y. I liked the whole very cozy next-to-each-other deal bc the restaurant is fairly small (also has a patio outside). Me and the bff came here and seated ourselves (the place looked extremely busy) and we ordered the eggs benedict (which, btw, were HUGE) and the scramblers #2 with sausage. Decent good breakfast, not anything TOO original though. Service was good. read more

We had some delicious omelets and pancakes here! We had them put chocolate chips in their banana pancakes.. Amazing. These are the kinds of pancakes that don't just have pancakes on top but actually in the batter. We had the Baja and rancho omelets. Only complaint is the rancho sauce is more salsa on top than a ranchero sauce. Their biscuits are delicious and fluffy with great gravy! Service was average. Parking was not too bad since we came on week day. We would be back if it was closer to home and it wasn't so crazy on the weekends. read more

I went to Eggs Etc on Monday morning. I had one of their specials Eggs with ham and side of potatoes and a pancake $5.99 and coffee, sounds simple but it was delicious. The girls working there were super friendly and the prices are very reasonable. I definitely plan to return read more

The gf and I had been coming here every other weekend for months. Then two of our favorite servers left and the experience just went downhill from there. One of the young asian women who works there was so rude to us we decided to never go there again. Food is ok but I recently discovered a few breakfast spots near by that I enjoy far more. read more

Bought a Groupon- they did not honor it. No bueno for business, probably won't go back.

Very very cute place to have breakfast! BEst way to start the day:) portions are small at best but they are family owned place. Place opens at 7 am for breakfast and closes at 2 pm. they offer some lunch specials. The dishes were a little dirty that why they loose a star, but other then that prices are fair and i wouldn't do it again but at least try it once. read more

My friend and I tried this place for the first time and it was a great!!! The service was excellent, everyone was friendly and they were quick with taking care of us. The food was good and it was a great price too!!! I suggest turning your potatoes into spuds, they put cheese, avocado, and sour cream on top of the potatoes, how awesome is that!!! We sat outside on the patio and it is a comfortable atmosphere. I will for sure go back here again. read more

This is probably one of the best breakfast joints in East Long Beach, although I have not tried them all. I've never had a bad meal here. The prices are decent and the servers are super friendly. read more

I just have to say; PLEASE BRING BACK THE OLD OWNER!! Since its been under new ownership you can tell things are just different here now. No one seems happy to be working there, what was once a great way to start off your morning on the weekend turned to a horrible experience. Took forever to get my food, at least 45 min and it was just myself and my boyfriend..... So sad to see this place changing before my very eyes read more

Love this place! Today was my second time there and it tasted better the first. The only thing I've tried is the Baja omelet with fresh fruit and a (huge ) pancake. I don't live in long beach and whenever I go, I have to make a stop for breakfast. The service is great. All the waitresses are very attentive and walk around offering refills often. Their coffee is delicious and strong and they serve it in huge coffee mugs, huge mugs are always a plus. I do want to try the other items on their menu but I love the Baja omelet too much. I will definitely be returning read more

yummy!!! i have been to eggs etc twice and both times ordered the greek skillet...AMAZING! eggs, feta cheese, sundried tomaotes, spinich...so good esp with their homeade salsa! i also usually order a side of sourdough toast because it come with their delicious homeade jam...hungry just thinking about it go here! :) read more

I have driven by this place a million times over the years...every time my hubby and I go by on the weekend, he always says that we should eat there, but since there is usually a line (which is a good sign!), we never have. Last Friday, my daughter and I went to the dentist (which is across the street) and since we had some time to kill before our appt., I decided to stop in and have a mid-morning snack. We had our choice of only three booths on the inside once we got there (but by the time we left, we would have had to wait..I didn't see a single booth empty). My daughter got the kids pancakes with a beautiful side of fruit (strawberries, honeydew, pineapple, cantaloupe, and grapes) and the whole beautiful thing was less than $3!!! I just got a side of potatoes with tortillas - let me tell you about these tortillas - I was at a mexican restaurant the night before and the tortillas at this other place (where they should be experts at tortillas) were not this soft, fresh, and deeelicious. And the potatoes are spiced with something (paprika?) before they are grilled so they end up with this great crust, and they threw in some green onions and (homemade?) salsa on the side. It was very good... I also noticed on the menu that they have vegan chorizo (yummmm!), but they don't offer tofu as an egg-replacement (which I guess makes since because the place is called EGGS, etc. - lol)....and the coffee that they serve is from Pollys!! Another plus - our waitress came by twice JUST to check on my daughter and make sure that her food was good and that she liked it! I hadn't planned on us eating all that much, but we both ended up cleaning our plates! The food is great, the service is good, and we will definitely go back again for a summer breakfast or early lunch on the patio. :) read more

Ok so i used to drive by this place all the time. But when I saw the sign for Banana Pancakes and was SOLD! There was kind of a wait, but the turn around was so quick, it didn't take long for a seat on the deck. EVERYTHING rocked! I got sausage, scrabbled eggs (that came with a very soft english muffin), the banana pancake - of course, and hot coco. Portions were large and everything tasted great! I will DEFF return! read more

I drove by this place many times and it always caught my attention. It looks very cozy. This place is always full, there are always lots of people out on the front patio which is alway a good sign of a great place. Unfortunately my first visit was spoiled by a coffee mug full of pink lipstick. Although the food and service were decent, my first impression spoiled meal. read more

Came here for breakfast with my bf and his mom. Me and his mom ordered the same exact thing, country fried steak with eggs and biscuits and gravy. She got water and I got orange juice. Within an hour that we left I got extremely sick to my stomach from the food I had just ate. My bfs mom was ok, I don't know if it was the food or the orange juice or their side of salsa they gave me but something they served me made me sick. They weren't very busy when we went and I would have expected better service, not sure if I'll be coming back here or not. We had never came here before and wanted to try it out. Nothing super special about the place and after my experience I rather not take the chance again of getting sick from their food. read more

Super disappointed to leave this review. The food was great, but the service was horrible. My server Joel went MIA after delivering my food. I asked for more coffee and he sent one of his team mates to refill it, so at least that was good. I had a few other requests regarding my order, but no one was around to help. Getting my check settled out took a while as well. read more

Okay very intimate setting . When I come back I would definitely sit on patio! I got my meal to go and I'm annoyed I'm in a rush and can not stay and enjoy the atmosphere read more

10:30 am on a Monday. I haven't been here in many years. The last time I was here we saw Art Laboe! Rolling solo this time. I got OJ and the Scramble #3 with a side of biscuits and gravy and fruit ($15). The scramble was cooked perfectly but it lacked something, was kind of bland for my liking. Biscuits also lacked flavor. The extra star was for their Eggcellent service (see what I did there). Was greeted quickly and by everyone that passed by me. I'll give this place another try just because they're super friendly and attentive. read more

Great food, excellent service. We frequent this local spot often. They have a coupon in the Gruion if you want to get a bogo. We always try and go when Joel is serving. He makes us feel welcome and anticipates our needs. A must place to try if you're from out of town. You won't be disappointed. read more

Stopped for breakfast this past weekend and the food and service calls for a return visit. I had the blueberry short stack pancakes and they were delicious. The pancake size is large and you will definitely get full before finishing your plate. Need to get there earlier though. This little place fills up quick and you have to a wait to be seated. read more

My favorite breakfast place in SoCal! If you're a fan of good pancakes, the best home fries (hash browns), great bacon, and great service, this is the place to be! We come every weekend and we never leave disappointed. read more

Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day, and I have never found a spot I can continually go back to and enjoy.. Until I discovered this place!! Everything I have had so far is great! (French Toast, waffle, biscuits & gravy, Chorizo Mix) and they have a black & green tea mix for hot tea I haven't had before, but now love! And the servers are very friendly! The wait for food is not long at all.. I have no complaints read more

Service here is usually good, as is the food. I give it 3 stars only because just today we had to cancel an order due to our waitress handling my honey's waffles with her hands AFTER repeatedly wiping her nose with those same unwashed hands. Yuck! Upon further observation, it seems that "hand"ling the waffles is regular protocol here because we then saw another waitress do the same, and then go handle money. This might not bother other folk, but if it does, don't order the waffles. Honey said we won't be back. I'd rather eat at home anyway. G'day. read more

I'm giving this place what it's already got--3 stars. With the breakfast dishes we got, there was nothing fancy, they weren't bad nor were they great. The service was good and we enjoyed sitting outside where it was nice and breezy. And there was no line here either like the first place we went to. read more

Really not impressed with this spot. Everything seemed really salty including the eggs. Couldn't even finish my breakfast it was so salty.

I have been a frequent patron for years. The food is amazing. Well let's say the dish I Order every single time is amazing. However went back on Friday and I must say the service was horrible. It was busy, but not busy enough to forget simple request. Lee asked for waters 3 different times. Never came. We asked for creamer, never came. My order was correct, however my family's order was all wrong. When we brought it up, the server actually rolled her eyes. You messed up, we didn't. So why the attitude? I am in the industry. For 18 years now. I have seen and done it all. Service this bad will only drive loyal patrons to never come back again. Which is sad because I truly love my favorite dish. I seriously clean the plate every single time. I guess it's time to find a new breakfast place. :-/ read more

First visit & I was pleasantly surprised. Staff was very attentive and professional. Our waitress even ran after us when we left out Debit card. Food was very good. read more

The food is good if you REALLY like butter and oil. Cooks fault and that is the only negative thing I can say because the service was fast and friendly and the atmosphere is lovely. But yea if your sandwich is grilled or you're eating anything w grease be prepared w extra napkins to soak up the oil. read more

Love this place great for a Sunday breakfast, their portions are generous! Service is good, they have awnings for shade so if your sitting in the patio and it's bright or hot, kindly ask the server to put those in use. We ordered the soy chorizo omelette and the eggs Benedict, my favorite was hands down the omelette. Perfectly seasoned, eggs were cooked to perfection and the side of potatoes were tasty! They even offer a side biscuits with gravy to the omelette! Parking is a bit crunched but hey... that's everywhere in LB but it's worth it so deal read more

This WAS my favorite breakfast place. Since the ownership changed, its just gone downhill. The food is slapped together, the prices are too high for what you get, and the flavor was just not there. I knew I should of cooked breakfast on my own. Time to cross this place off of my favorites list. Too bad. read more

We went here because our usual spot (Coffee Cups) had a long wait and we were hungry! Lol So my husband and I called this place, as it's close by, was told there was no wait so we went. Got a table immediately, ordered and all was well. Unfortunately, it took forever to get our meals. When the food finally came out, it was almost cold. We were irritated, but hunger got the best of us so we just ate it. What's more frustrating was that the table next to us, with a larger party, got their entrees within 15 mins of ordering. Wtf?! Needless to say, this place will continue to not be my first choice in dining for breakfast. read more
