Phenomenal breakfast, wow such a cool place. The decor and the food were eggceptional!! The Crepe omelet was just an interesting twist and the seasonal pancakes were great. Can't wait to go back! Service was also equivalent in every way.
Add Eggspectation to your go-to spots for brunch . I would definitely suggest a reservation or getting on waitlist on the weekend . The worse part of our experience was hungrily awaiting a table . Overall a large restaurant, beautifully decorated and clean most importantly. We started off with a mimosa flight . Can't go wrong . I ordered the French Toast platter . I couldn't quite pin exactly what kind of bread was used but it was absolutely delicious. Soft but still crisp . Flavorful and fluffy . I despise "eggy" French toast and they did not disappoint. I love that the potatoes were thin and crisp compared to home fries at most restaurants being cubed/diced potatoes . Unfortunately I didn't get a great picture of the lambs chops but they were also delicious. Initially thought it was overcooked off first glance but once we took a bite, we were relieved that it cooked perfectly tender and juicy . Our little one ordered the "smores" like pancake, no complaints there . I'm excited to see what their lunch/dinner menu has to offer .
While in town for a quick trip my sister and I decided to grab brunch from this spot ! We arrived around 9:30am. The shopping plaza they are located in was hosting a craft show, so I can see how occasionally there may be issues with parking. We arrived a few minutes prior to them placing up barricades and were able to score a parking spot at the perimeter of the shopping plaza. When we walked in the host immediately greeted us with a smile and graciously assisted us with fondling a seat. The wait staff came over within minutes of us being seated. She also had a pleasant demeanor. We started off ordering waters . When she returned with waters we placed both our drink and food orders. I ordered a cappuccino with almond milk and my sister ordered a latte and requested pumpkin syrup. For our food order: I had the shrimp and crab omelette, my sister had the veggie omlette, and we ordered a side order of the almond crunch French toast to share. The drinks came out first, but I was surprised by how quickly the food order arrived. The omelette is served with a small side salad and potatoes. The only thing I am sure that was cooked to order was the omelette- and as quickly as it arrived- I am not so certain it was made to order. The coffee was really good. I am a true coffee drinker and appreciate the taste of coffee. I would love to know what beans they use for their coffee drinks - so good. The omelette had great flavor. The potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside . The salad was simple- but fresh ! I would say that you can taste that they use quality ingredients and fresh ingredients- which I am a fan of! The side French toast was heavenly ! The almonds added a good crunch to the Overall I would highly recommend this spot! Everything gets a check from me- ambience , service and food ! If you have an opportunity to patronize this spot I can assure you that you will not be disappointed!
The food is amazing at this place. We had the gingerbread pancakes and they were spectacular. In the All-American the three meets were incredible... The bacon is from heaven... cooked to perfection and a balanced smoke and salt taste.! This place really is amazing. The staff are incredibly friendly and is great for groups or a date. This might be one of my favorite breakfast places I've visited. Will definitely be back and we'll put on my favorites list.
This restaurant is beautiful inside, especially with the Christmas décor. Parking is easy in the garage nearby. We were greeted right away, and my friend and I enjoyed a great breakfast. Our waitress, Izzy, was wonderful--definitely ask for her! I had the tacos, and my friend had French toast and bacon. We both loved our meals. I'll definitely be back!
My husband and I finally made the 45 min drive to Eggspectation and I'm glad we did. We went on a Friday morning and the environment was so lovely. We were seated immediately and ordered the beignets, mimosa flight, French toast, eggs, etc. Everything was delicious but the beignets. They were not presented well and were super dense. I'll pass on the beignets next time and stick to the French toast. We will be back.
I've been to several Eggspectations across America and Canada and was excited to see that Charlotte had one and directly in my neck of the woods. Went for Sunday Brunch and it was good but not great. I don't feel compelled to rush back to this restaurant for another but in time I think I'll revisit it again and hopefully leave with a willingness to return. I tried both the Smoked Salmon Crostinis and the Smoked Salmon Benedict. The crostinis seemed lightly toasted vs grilled so it lacked the desired crunch I've come to expect with this starter. The creme cheese for a few of the crostinis was slopped heavy handily on them and the red onion and capers weren't pickled or sautéd at all. Raw onions, that's different and no lemon wedge to add some acidity to cut through the fattiness of the creme cheese. Seemed very rushed in its preparation. Not a fan. I've had better from other French inspired restaurants here in Charlotte. The Salmon Benedict was close to perfection. My poached eggs were slightly over how I've typically gotten them, but that's minute in the overall taste of the dish. Definitely five stars regardless. Sunday rush usually dies down between 1-2pm so to avoid 45mins wait time and slower service consider going at that time. Take advantage of sitting outside once all this pollen is done with. Good luck!!
We finally got to try this restaurant because they've added a waitlist. We go out for brunch pretty much every Sunday so this place with such a big and varied menu was one we wanted to try. I have to eat gluten free and was hoping they'd have some options. The only gf items are pancakes and gf bread. The server was aware that the lyonnaise potatoes are cooked in the same fryer as all the other fried items so I was able to avoid that. The portions are very generous, and everything we had was good. I had the scrambled egg breakfast with fruit subbed for the potatoes. It came with several slices of ham, three or four pieces of bacon and two sausage links! No gf toast though. So instead eventually they brought a gf roll, that was barely toasted and with no butter or jelly. The eggs and breakfast meats were good. My husband had the chicken and waffles - enormous amount of chicken so we took a quarter of it home. Our son had the chicken schnitzel which was nicely prepared and plated. The menu has a lot of variety but not really enough gf options so I probably won't go back but it was worth a try.
4.5/5 Came here for brunch yesterday, and would come back. The service was great, the waiter kept checking on us. Food was definitely on the expensive side for Charlotte, but had bigger portions so we shared all of it. We got the spring lamb burger, Cajun shrimp and grits, and toluca poutine. Lamb burger was 4/5 - had good flavor and was moist and tender, burger bun wasn't dry, salad was okay. Cajun shrimp and grits 4/5, shrimp nicely charred and not overcooked, but a little too strong of a bell pepper flavor but still nicely balanced. The poutine was okay 3.5/5, the cheese curds were just okay. For drinks we got the pistachio nut latte and eggspectation Bloody Mary, which were both good.
I ordered the Strawberry Banana Crepe from their new spring menu, and it did not disappoint. It was light, fresh, and perfectly sweet: basically spring on a plate. But what really blew me away was the orange juice. I was literally sitting right next to the machine squeezing fresh oranges into juice, and wow... you can taste the difference. So fresh, so vibrant, like sunshine in a glass. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a delicious, friendly breakfast in Ballantyne.
Cajun Shrimp & Grits - amazing!!! Definitely my go-to for Sundays, either w friends or alone at the bar. Sure thing each time. Server Diane for the win today. Highly recommend!
Great service. We enjoyed the outdoor seating area. The garlic bread came out quick and was soo tasty! The crab Benedict was well seasoned and beautifully presented. The chicken and waffles were well cooked but the chicken lacked seasoning. We will definitely be back, such an impressive menu with lots to try!
"Elevated Breakfast". That's the theme and I would say they do a pretty good job of providing this. Everyone was very friendly and professional. The food was very very good and the atmosphere feels upscale without being pretentious. My only real gripe about this place is the speed of service. It took FOREVER to get my food. I had the Shrimp and Crab Omelette which was absolutely amazing! I subb d out the "mixed green" side for cheesey grits and that was the right choice for sure. I also had a couple of cocktails that were....well....they were okay. There didn't seem to be an actual bartender working and my server and another server were the ones that made both drinks. Not bad, by any means, but not quite what I think the drinks are supposed to be. It took a very long time for my food to come out and even longer to get the check once I was finished. If they just tighten up the attentiveness of the staff I think it would be worth the slightly high price. (Side note: I don't think they are really that over priced for the area and what you get).

My visit to Eggspectation Charlotte was nothing short of amazing. Yes, there was a wait--but trust me, it is absolutely worth it. I came in to celebrate my birthday, but the real treat turned out to be the food and the exceptional service from Crystal. She was warm, attentive, and made the entire experience feel special without being overbearing. That kind of genuine hospitality goes a long way. Now let's talk about the food--because wow. The lamb was cooked to perfection: tender, flavorful, and seasoned just right. The salad was fresh, delicious, and surprisingly filling. Every bite felt thoughtfully prepared. And the Eggspectation coffee? Perfection. It sealed all the flavors beautifully and brought the entire meal together. Between the inviting atmosphere, outstanding service, and consistently great food, this place truly checks every box. Honestly, it doesn't even matter what the occasion is--this is the kind of spot you come to because you know you'll leave happy. I will definitely be back again... and again. Highly recommend. read more

I went here in a Friday morning. It wasn't busy when I arrived and I was seat right away. There is plenty of parking around this place it's near a shopping center. Inside was very clean and the staff were friendly. Their menu was good it had a variety. I was in the mood for something sweet. They had this almond croissant with berries French toast. I was interested bc I never had French toast made out of a croissant before. It was delicious. It came with fresh berries. I also ordered a side of eggs with my French toast. And I had a smoothie which was good. I thought the smoothie position was a little small for the price but it was still good. This place was nice and I will be back again to check out some other stuff on their menu. read more

I ordered my eggs scrambled well. It was DELICIOUS! I love how the potatoes are crisp and not soggy. It's a great portion size and I was able to have two servings. I used my air fryer for the potatoes when I reheated it. This is on my highly recommended list! read more

For the most part it was a good dining experience. My son and I visited. Our server was very friendly and worked very hard to accommodate all of his tables. He had a couple of larger parties and managed to remain in good spirits the entire time. As for the food. I absolutely loved my Shrimp and Crab Omelette. However, my latte was horrible and very watered down. My son ordered the Poutine and he was not a fan. It was definitely a way different version of Poutine than I've ever had. The gravy wasn't a true gravy. It was just different like it was milk or cream based. He loved the egg on top and picked his way through it but it was the S'mores French Toast that saved the day for him. All in all, I think I'll give them another go! I definitely loved the vibe and my food. We just know to bypass the Poutine next time! read more

Although I haven't made it here for dinner/drinks yet, this is a solid lunchtime spot. I usually get the kids meal and not only id the price right, but you get a nice sized portion. I've had the grilled cheese twice and had the chicken strips meal (pictured) last time. It also comes with a drink which is nice. The employees always make sure I have everything I need, and usually throw in a coupon. I've never dined in but the atmosphere looks cozy and nice, but not stuffy-cute bar area. They have date night menus, specials, brunch, etc. The menu is enormous so I definitely plan to swing back through and try some different dishes. read more

This is a relatively new restaurant in the Ballantyne community. There's plenty of parking in the shared parking lot where the restaurant is located. They have a full bar. Came here a few times to try brunch versus dinner on different days. It didn't seem to be too crowded. They need a really good bartender. Both times my server made the drinks and they weren't good. They NEED a good bartender that can be icing on the cake as the location is ideal and this is probably why many people aren't even coming. The food was decent but not great. Nothing was recommended by the server both times I came. The prices that are noted online do not match. What's on the menu in the restaurant. The restaurant is very large. They could really do a lot with it such as bingo or trivia nights, but they don't really have any big specials to draw the crowd. Hope your experience is better.... read more

This spot had nice vibes and overall good food. The only thing we didn't enjoy was the toasted almond croissant French toast. It was sitting in a pool of the syrup/caramel it came with. The French toast was completely soggy and sickeningly sweet. The chicken and waffles was amazing though. My family also enjoyed the all American plate, poutine, and Nashville chicken Benedict. Our service wasn't bad but it wasn't spectacular. One person at the table got a refill and everyone else was left with empty glasses. There was also no refills of hot water for tea. I liked the menu for its variety and most everything pulled through. I would go back. read more

This place is fantastic! Talk about fine dining, for breakfast! My wife loved their Signature Mimosa and said it tastes freshly squeezed. I had the Shrimp & Crab omelette, nice blend of flavors, a very unique omelette--I enjoyed it. The Beignets were wonderful (could've been fluffier BUT, the taste, toppings and creamy syrup made up for it all). I also had the Jamaican Coffee, a lovely warm spiced coffee. The waitstaff were great, very attentive. Well deserved above a18% tip. read more

If you know what flambéing is then don't get their so called flambéing French toast! The bartender has wonderful customer service but she really doesn't know the food. I told her that the fruit is soggy and this isn't flambéing. She said they put the sauce on it! flambéing is a cooking technique that infuses the food with amazing flavors. At know point was there any of the flavor or was the cooking technique done to any of my food. Take flambéing off the menu! Your charging for a dish you're not providing but adding the fancy name without executing the proper cooking technique to make it flambéing. It's extremely disappointing to a person that has actually had flambéing French toast. Especially, this soggy mess! read more

Y'all! We were out for our weekly brunch tour and Eggspectation was next on the list. I had a little free time before our scheduled 12:30pm meet up and decided to surf the online menu. All of the dishes looked and descripted so beautifully and the menu was so large, I just couldn't decide. So I took a bunch of screen shots and would make up my mind while in the car (my guy driving). We get there and get 12 seated, all together by this forceful mother-type waitress, Diane. She got us waters, took our appy and drink orders. While we were deciding on meal orders, with several mind changes, the beautiful Gooey Goose Bread comes out. It looks and smells amazing! The salted-caramel maple syrup sauce only proves what we're thinking, it is delicious! Diane comes back to take meal orders. She's funny, to the point and no nonsense when asked for suggestions. She knows her menu. I even started calling her "mom." She's no June Cleaver, but makes you feel just as good as June did the Beav. The food: The beautifully presented dishes start arriving and we are all in awe. A few start digging in immediately and I am tempted, but wait for all to be served. My guy got the Western Omelet with potatoes. I got the Santorini Salad and Avocado Toast Benedict. There were several other lovely dishes around the table and I could not stop taking pictures. Everyone around the table was satisfied and unanimous vote for this location is to "Remain on Rotation!" The service: Diane was the best! We have been to restaurants where we have watched 3 people struggle to serve a group our size and clearing up checks at the end was nightmarish. She did it alone and with ease, while keeping us entertained. I even believe we softened her up a bit. I honestly hated leaving her there, but wanted to take her home and have her run my entire household. This was a great outing and everyone was happy at the end. Eggspectation made for an Eggcellent! gathering and Happy Hips! read more
