Great food with generous portions. Great breakfast options with fried chicken, steak, pancakes, grits and all kinds of eggs

The 3 star rating is purely based on the overpriced menu items. ~ The staff was wonderful, especially Angie. ~ The food was good, but I thought it was a bit extreme to charge $2 for two pieces of toast, $3 for a small cup of watery coffee. It almost looked like tea. We ordered 7 breakfasts for 5 adults and 2 kids. $$$ read more

Food was subpar and overpriced. I was surprised how busy they were. Our waitress was sweet and we had a good time but I wouldn't come back to dine again. read more

Skimpy on the gravy! 2 stars for that, 5 stars for the special French toast. Actually like this place but very disappointed on the splash of gravy! read more

I got the Chicken Fried Chicken with Hashbrowns and Pancakes. The Chicken Fried Chicken was really good, I have no complaints on that. The eggs and the hashbrowns were a little bland though in my opinion. I just added some salt and pepper to the eggs and ketchup to the hashbrowns and it was all good. The pancakes were amazing, a little dense and not too sweet. The portion sizes here are really big and I left very satisfied. The service here was really good. I came here after hiking very hungry, and the food came out pretty fast. The staff was kind and would always come to check if everything was alright, maybe a little too often, but I appreciate the effort! I would definitely come back here again if I'm in the area and want some breakfast. read more

Food and atmosphere were both great! We went for brunch with a large group of 12 (that included 5 kids) and they accommodated us within about a half hour. I would suggest going early. We arrived about 945 and shortly after 3 other larger parties came in and the hostess seemed slightly overwhelmed. Eggs Benedict was great! Kids loved the Mickey/Minnie pancakes and the portions for the price was great compared to other breakfast places! read more

You must try the Very Berry Waffle. I love waffles, but I stopped ordering them at restaurants. Every order was too dry, too chewy, or too bland. This waffle was perfect and I didn't leave one bite! The service was great as well considering how busy the place was on a Sunday morning. read more

Overall great service...fantastic act. We got here early enough to beat the crowd. Menu has a lot of options for everyone so you won't struggle to find something for your preference. Favorite thing here was hands down the pancake. Don't know why but probably had to do with the fact that they were perfectly cooked fluffy and every bite was just downright delicious. We also had omelettes which were good and gigantic. The one downside was that they overcooked my omelet. Not burnt but that level where it gets dark on the edges and tastes like burnt egg and made it not as soft. Great breakfast choice for the area though. And definitely try the hot sauce! read more

Excellent food and very fast attentive service you can't go wrong with brunch at this café

Amazing Ford is always on point and the servers are very polite and they always check up on you to make sure everything is good

Perfect food! Loved the hot sauce. Chef is immaculate. Service is ok but you see that some waiters are working really hard but I had to wait awhile until my server came to get the check. I had to ask someone another waiter for the check instead. Also the orange juice glass sizes are a little bit strange. It's priced for 3.99 and they served me a small kid glass I looked at everyone's table and they were served a larger glass of orange juice? When I asked the waiter he said they they asked for a large cup?? But why was my glass a small kid size? No one asked me if I wanted a large cup? It doesn't say there are two different sizes on the menu (??) very strange. They should make that more clear! read more

A little gem tucked away around the corner from Kroger store. Nice ambiance to start your day. The staff is very friendly and helpful. My girl had a breakfast skillet and I had chicken fried steak and eggs. Man, this restaurant cuts their own steak. It tasted like it was griddle cooked instead of deep frying it. It was tender and crispy. read more

I'll start my review off by saying this is my favorite breakfast place when I'm looking for a "traditional" American breakfast. What I mean by this is things along the lines of eggs, steak, bacon, corned beef hash, etc. Everything here is cooked simply, but to perfection. Honestly have never had a breakfast ribeye steak as good as this place's, ever. And the chefs know how to cook a steak to order. Have never had a steak overcooked or undercooked, yet. The corned beef hash here is also the best I've ever had. The occasional crunchy bite is amazing. The sausage, pancakes, and hash browns are nothing special. I would say if you're looking for a normal American breakfast done to perfection, choose this place. If you're looking for something a little more decadent or "over the top", check out my review on Maple Leaf Diner. read more

Amazing food with great customer service! I've been to a lot of brunch places with my boyfriend, but this one is by far his favorite. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was friendly. The steak was cooked so well. I got it without the bell peppers. It was definitely a great choice! Will be back here for brunch pretty soon and try out more of their options! read more

My family and I came here to have Sunday brunch. Ended up having to wait at least 45 minutes for a table, which I can understand since it is a Sunday after all. It was pretty cold out, so we had to wait in the car for awhile. I was really surprised to see how much variety their menu has! I opted for their chicken fried chicken with over easy eggs, chicken noodle soup, and pancakes. Their chicken fried chicken is very bready and is topped with a generous amount of white gravy. Their pancakes were especially delicious! It was fluffy and just the right amount of sweetness as itself (without any syrup). I liked how the soup had thick noodles rather than macaroni. Pro Tip: Use the 15% Off Yelp discount! read more

I hate writing negative reviews, and was half tempted to leave a 2 star review without any description, but that wouldn't be fair to the restaurant so here I am. The reason for the two star review was the quality of the food. We ordered four dishes - the smoked salmon Benedict, the egg Benedict, the eggscelent skillet, and the nutella crepe - and all of them were pretty underwhelming. With the smoked salmon benedict, the salmon was extremely thick and not smoked at all, which lead to an extremely overwhelming seafood/fishy taste with every bite. I ended up removing the fish slices and eating the rest of the benedict by itself. With the eggs benedict, the underlying muffin was already soggy and cold when the it was brought out. With the eggscelent skillet, the whole skilled was terribly under seasoned and not flavorful at all - both the eggs and the chicken sausage tasted bland. And finally, with the nutella crepe, the crepe was super eggy and thick, and it tasted like we were eating french toast rather than a crepe. While the food was not the best, the service was pretty good and our waitstaff was friendly. Don't think we'll return here anytime soon though. read more

Went here the other day with my partner on her recommendation, was very satisfied with the service and ambiance. Got a breakfast burrito with hash browns and a classic crepe with blueberries, both were tasty! Their menu is massive so definitely plan to return to try out other items. We went around 8am and wasn't busy at all even though it was Sunday brunch time. We will go back soon! read more

Came here for brunch and it was pretty good! I ordered the avocado eggs benedict since I love me some hollandaise sauce, my boyfriend got the eggsellent skillet, and we got some waffles to share. The eggs benedict and waffles were yummy but nothing extraordinary, and the skillet was aight. The prices were pretty good for brunch, everything was well-packed, and the people seemed friendly (although we didn't dine in). I totally missed the 15% check-in discount so I might come here again to snag that offer :-) read more

We went when it was busy, Sunday after church. I was really excited to try this place because it had great reviews. My family and I even waited 45 minutes outside - which was no small feat since I'm 7 months pregnant and there wasn't enough outdoor seating so I had to sit on the concrete sidewalk. I didn't mind, I'm in good shape and I looked through reviews in Yelp and saw what other customers ordered and narrowed it down to the banana Nutella crepes or the biscuits and gravy omelette. Eventually we got in. Then we waited a long time to order. Like, a surprisingly long time. I don't know exactly how long, and maybe it just felt longer because we'd already been pretty patient. After we ordered, we waited for the food to come. This also took awhile. And... it was disappointing. My food was lukewarm by the time I got it, we had a hard time getting coffee refilled (let alone cream and sugar,) and the eggs in the the eggs Benedict were very undercooked. Not a little undercooked. A lot undercooked. I never mentioned my lukewarm food, I wasn't trying to be a Karen. Our waiter at best may have been a little slow, and at worst he was rude. We tried to tell him that the eggs were undercooked with a lot of runny white. He then attempted to explain to us that the eggs were supposed to be that way... except when we ordered them we had specifically asked to have them cooked a little longer so there would be no runny whites... I gave him the benefit of the doubt and assumed he was a bit slow and still gave him a generous tip despite the issues we encountered. Maybe it was just an off day? The hostess at the front and the other person we talked to about the eggs being undercooked were nice enough. They did bring us out new eggs. They were more done than before, but my mother was still uncomfortable with the amount of runny white she saw , and declined to have them remade or substituted. They were kind enough to not charge us for the raw food we couldn't eat. I also thought the place was a little dirty. I hate to be that guy, but a few places around the restaurant looked like they needed a good scrubbing. I did take pictures, but Yelp is a pain to pull them up from. I can, if anyone is really that interested. I had a lot of extra time for photography while I was there. All in all I am disappointed, I really wanted to like this place. Maybe we'll try again when it's less busy (but is busy-ness really an excuse? I dunno.) read more

A great place to have breakfast and brunch around Carrollton Texas. The ambience is with decent lighting and well organized seating system. Place is clean and sanitized. food is really tastiest, mouth watering and delicious. We got good portion of food. The service was also really great read more

Walked in to smiling faces and was acknowledged right away and guided to our seats. I ordered the iron man scramble for a healthy option. I like that they have quite a variety of food from waffles to burgers to skillets and omelettes, as well as healthy menu options at the bottom. My scramble was chop full of flavor due to the spinach, mushroom, tomato and avocado complimenting eachother nicely and very generous portions. The atmosphere here feels as if you're in a sweet grandma's welcoming kitchen, and the service was fast and friendly. read more

After finding this place on Yelp and looking at all of the wonderful pictures of food on here, I was really looking forward to having brunch here on my last day in Texas. However, I must say that I was disappointed with my dining experience here. The restaurant itself is beautiful and gives the café look and feel. Seating can be an issue here, but if you are really determined to dine here, I guess it will be worth waiting for. Parking can also be an issue, since the lot seems like it didn't have enough spaces for the amount of business in the area. Also be careful for people that want to drive very fast through parking lots. There were a lot of them here. The customer service was a hit or miss. Some of the staff that we interacted with were friendly and helpful; however, our waitress wasn't personable at all and was clearly in a bad mood. She obviously seemed irritated and didn't want to interact with anyone. That being said, she wasn't very attentive to us. We had to flag her down a couple of times for maple syrup for our pancakes and refills on our drinks. I understand that we all have bad days, but it's another thing to take out that frustration on guests. The food was OK, but it wasn't five star worthy. I ended up ordering the biscuits & gravy omelette, which apparently Eggsellent Café is famous for, but it wasn't flavorful. The gravy, in my opinion, is what makes or breaks a dish that heavily relies on it. And in this case, the gravy definitely broke this dish. The gravy wasn't flavorful at all, so I was under impressed with their "famous" dish. My boyfriend ordered the 2x4 breakfast, which he wasn't impressed with either. It comes with two sausage patties that were very bland. Overall, I'm not impressed with my dining experience at Eggsellent Café. The customer service wasn't consistent and the food was not all that great. I do not plan on dining here again whenever, or if ever, I'm in the area again. read more

Forget Leo's Brunch House, this is THE Carrollton brunch place to go to. Excellent food and service. None of the dishes here are terrible, and I've gotten pretty much something from every section (eggs, sandwich, healthy, pancakes, waffles, etc.).

Stopped in this place for a late Sunday brunch. Business was slowing down so we were seated right away. Got to give a big up to the friendliness of the staff here they were great. Now on to the food..it was really good. I usually am not too impressed by the local brunch cafés in the area. But this one was really good. The food here was well seasoned!! and cooked to perfection. I would definitely recommend this place for a light lunch or breakfast / brunch spot. I had the chicken and waffles and my girlfriend tried the chorizo burrito, which I also took A few bites out of both were really delicious. read more

The food was eggcellent! I ordered a lot for the weekend since I didn't have time to grocery shop. 1 Biscuit 12 out 10 So fluffy and moist. I rebooted it 2 Sausage gravy 7.25 because it was very liquid, too salty, not enough pepper. Little light on sausage but not a huge deal Cinnamon toast side 10 it was the best thing ever. A NUST order!! 3 Kids egg meal 9.3 poached egg was not runny it was overcooked. Just get sunny. Bacon under cooked. High no due to hash browns being perfect in every way. My son loved the hash browns. 4 Croissant chicken Waldorf salad. 6.9 out of 10 because they don't make it correctly. Where's the grape halves?! Too much mayo and I like a lot but this was dripping globs. There wasn't enough celery if any, weird soggy pecans. They do get extra points for the wonderful two tomatoes and crisp lettuce with the pickles. 5 Tomato soup 5 it's not bad but it's not great. Needs more cream and not so sweet for my taste anyway. 6 French Fries 7.4 I love those type fries but not many and cold by the time they arrived. We all had a couple but ehh. 7 Not impressed with the burger. 3.75 Typically breakfast places have a wonderful burger that's hot, juicy, sizzle from the grill with some nice juice dripping down your arm on a nice toasted crispy edge bun. However, this was dry and below average. School bother level at best. Try again. 8 Side of strawberrirs 9.8 no real complaints. Fresh, sliced, juicy and the bowl was filled. I got a couple old ones but they were way better than most places. Kids drinks were better than most because the covers were better than most but I don't understand why cafes don't just get boxed milk and juices for delivery. I would think that any drink would be best legally in a container that in a tamper safe container. Packaged well 8 out 10 Overall I give this place a 9.6 for taste, value and servings. Well done and we will return. I look forward to finishing tomorrow. read more

We have been regulars here for some time, but in recent visigs the food quality has not been what it used to be. T There seems to be a new manager, ot something changed, but this is not the place is used to be. The most recent visit was a complete fiasco. I called to be added to the wait list, I was told it would be 25 minutes, we arrived within 20 minutes, T Hey could not initially locate the record of my call, and, either they didn't record it or used an entirely different name. We were told that there were two groups ahead of us and it would be about another 20 minutes. 40 minutes later and 5 groups having gone in a head of use, we mad reservation online for a place across town and left. I get thighs can go wrong but the pattern of misrepresentation here is entirely unacceptable, and that coupled with the decline in food quality mean this was likely our last visit/ read more

Why have I waited to stop in here?!? It's great! I start my day very early so 9:30am is lunchtime. Hate breakfast foods like eggs and pancake but I was so impressed with the menu, quality of food and the prices! The best part! I had the Venetian chicken panini and salad, he had chicken noodle soup. My sandwich-amazing! Loads of grilled chicken, lots of veggies and melty cheese. Came piping hot, huge portion and, got a salad on the side instead of fries, okra, fruit or soup. The best part was it was like 9 bucks, where just a similar sandwich itself costs way more, and is lower in quality at the competition like Panera or Corner Bakery. I'm officially making the switch! Will be eating the other half later today, enough for two meals:) Service was good, unsweetened ice tea with fresh lemon was refreshing. Will absolutely be back to try other items! read more

The name says it all. Definitely worth going to. One of the next brunch spots I have been to in a while. It's located in a strip mall. I notIced they had great reviews so I had to stop in and give it a try. They do not do reservations in case you are wondering. Arrived and there was a huge line. I was surprised when the receptionist said it wwoikd only be a fifteen minute wait. It's pretty small inside so it makes sense. I was seated after only about ten minutes so that was a nice surprise. The menu has all the standard breakfast foods you would expect. They do not have a bar so sadly there are no mimosas . But the food more than makes up for it. I went with a classic of a Belgian wAffle and a side of bacon. The service was super fast. I have to admit that they staff has it down. They are polite and know what they are doing. Prices are cheap for the amount of food you get. read more

Great breakfast selections. My favorite morning spot. Must try for yourself for a wonderful treat.

I have visited this place twice. I love the food. On this second visit the food was absolutely delicious. I love that we can customize our waffles, pancakes, and French toast. My eggs were perfect (not a lot of places cook them like I like them, soft scrambled). The service was not the best this second time. As the waiter set everything on one side of the table and did not even think to walk around. It was only two people in our party so a few steps around the table would have made it a five star review. I will return and I hope we have better service next time. read more
