    Skillet breakfast served with no skillet?  Omelette maybe?
    Kelly M.

    We love all day breakfast places and was hoping to add this to our list of go-to establishments. It started off well with a great looking interior and a really nice waitress. We put in our order and waited. And waited. When the food finally came out it was a bit confusing. The skillet breakfast was not in a skillet and the potatoes were on the side so it looked like a depressed and flat round omelette. My dining partner requested her crepe without cheese and it came with cheese. The waitress apologized for the cheese and said she had the chef make another without it. She left the mistake crepe on our table so we tried it. The crepe was really dense and thick. It was more a wrap than a crepe, and it was kind of thick for a wrap too. I found something on my dish that could be a hair or could be from corn or something else - I don't know. I just pulled it off and laid it aside, not eating the area it came from. The second crepe came out and... it had cheese in it again. We didn't even bother to tell the waitress as we had already been there a while and were fairly over the entire experience. The crepe was again really dense and more like a wrap than anything else. We couldn't figure why the place was so busy as our meals took a long time to get to us, were jacked up, and worst of all had no flavor. We noticed almost everyone else was drinking. So I guess this is a place you go if you primarily want to drink and the food is secondary. If you're actually interested in the food, like we are, this may not be the place for you. We're not returning.

    Eggsuberant Pancakes, bacon, scrambled eggs and potatoes
    Dawn H.

    Nice size restaurant on a dead end road. Service is fast and friendly. I ordered the eggsuberant (pancakes, eggs, choice of meat and potatoes). The pancakes were ok but the star of the show were the potatoes. They were flavorful and cooked perfectly.

    Fried Chicken & Waffles
    Erika S.

    This is a cute place. I hear there's usually a wait, but we had reservations so we just waited a short while. There was so much to choose from and I decided to get a cappuccino. I did not expect it to be so tiny, but it is a true cappuccino. I wanted to add a bit of sugar, and it took a long time to flag down. the waiter. I ordered the chicken and waffles and then Chicken came burnt as you can see. I had to send Chicken back and get a new one which was a wait but understandable. when I did receive new chicken it was flavorless thank goodness for the syrup. The breakfast potatoes are absolutely delicious though. I would give them another chance since the menu is so extensive, I'm sure there's something else that I would like.

    This place has some good but expensive dishes. I checked the menu before I came, but I didn't anticipate French toast being $18. Still, the service was great, and the decor is very hip. They had some seasonal specials which is nice. I went with the French toast flambe - which was a unique and tasty take on a classic breakfast stable. It came topped with fruit and flambéed with an orange liqueur, so it was a really interesting flavor. We also got an All-American, which for eggs, potatoes, bacon, ham, and sausage. It was good, but $17 for a standard breakfast. The coffee was nice, and we were never with an empty cup. The cups led us to the story of the franchise owner Bobby Pancake, which is just such a whimsical name for a breakfast place owner, I just love it. There were definitely a lot of larger parties, so this seems like a good place to meet friends/family for breakfast/brunch, especially because they serve drinks. This is more a place for that than for a quick bite to eat.

    Veggie crepe
    Renee B.

    I had a very nice breakfast experience here. Very pleased with our meals. I got the veggie crepe with a side of cheesy grits. Both were good but the grits were top notch! Service was friendly and prompt. We made a reservation. This place gets packed on weekend mornings.

    Shrimp & Crab Benedict

    Place is great. Very relaxed. The food is delicious had me dancing . Will definitely be back.

    I first want to say I loved our server Ed. He was attentive despite it being a busy time of the day in a large restaurant and he got our order exactly right the food was absolutely delicious. We loved the French toast and the pork belly. The shrimp and grits was also seasoned very well. As well as the huevos Ranchos. The only thing we could complain about was the garlic bread. It was a bit doughy.

    Chicken and waffles

    Delicious! The Chicken and waffles were perfect! We made sure to get reservations because we went on Mother's Day. Service was incredible and the food was so delicious. They were very busy, but the food got out very timely. The ambience was also amazing. I love the updated decor and the space between tables. I would absolutely go again and highly recommend if you're in the area.

    Came here for the first time , wait was 45 mins without reservation on a Sunday . After waiting hostess placed me and my family at a table that was broken . The hostess was asked if we can move tables she stated another 15 minute wait . Then I asked the waitress Juliana, was great she grabbed the manager for me and kindly placed our order . My food was amazing along with the peach mimosa with pineapple juice . I do not recommend their orange juice it is high in pulp . But I will be returning hopefully there are better wait times .

    Smoked Salmon Benny with an english muffin bread substitute
    Micaelly A.

    Visited this lovely brunch location with my friends today and had a great experience! The ambiance was great as it was a lovely open space with lots of room. There were also tables outdoors. For brunch I ordered a vanilla latte as well as the smoked salmon benny -- both were delicious! The smoked salmon eggs Benedict came with a side of fresh fruit which tasted fresh and yummy. Overall the experience was great, albeit a bit pricey compared to other brunch spots, even in Philadelphia where things can get pretty expensive.

    French Toast Flambé
    Shayla M.

    You had me at brunch. First time visiting Eggspectation and did not leave dissapointed. They have a pretty extensive menu and even have a bar area. Not looking to dine in just yet? Don't worry they have a separate to go area. I ordered the French Toast Flambé without the walnuts. The brioche bread was phenomenal and the orange brandy liqueur was the right touch. I also ordered the hot chocolate which was perfect since it was a chilly day. Great place worth checking out. There was so much on the menu that I would like to come back to try.

    This place ALWAYS has a wait. I'm not sure if they take reservations because we walked in to sit at the bar. The Bar: They have an impressive breakfast/lunch drink menu and even holiday beer options. The bar is pretty long and can accommodate a good amount of patrons with still having elbow room. The Food: This menu is a little more unique than First Watch I think. They have some more creative options and are known for their chicken and waffles (which runs about $19). My boyfriend and I both ordered one of the egg breakfast options. Mine was a classic breakfast with potatoes, eggs, and pancakes (super fluffy). My boyfriend ordered the Huevos Rancheros which looks big but it's just two tortas with some beans, meat, eggs, and avocado. Both dishes were around ($12). Service: We obviously had the bartender as our server. She was great while also serving some high tops. They seemed a little short staffed but she knew what she was doing. Definitely a place to try if you haven't already!

    I came to Eggspectation for breakfast and did not leave disappointed. Upon entering, the place was packed. Fortunately, I was able to score a seat at the bar. I ordered the Eggsuberant, which was a customizable breakfast platter. I had sunny side ups, sausages, and pancakes. The plate also came with Lyonnaise-style potatoes, but since I'm allergic to potatoes, I opted for toast. Overall, the service was fast despite the volume of people at the restaurant, and the food was pretty good too. My only minor complaint is that I wish that they had provided me with more bread; Lyonnaise-style potatoes are pretty fancy, and my substitution consisted of only a single measly slice of bread that was cut into two halves.

I appreciate the happy Buddah statue decor near the entrance; it give the palce a unique and fun flare. The TVs around Us were showing video games and poker which was great for me since I don't really watch sports. They are also doing a food drive since I saw a box with cans in it. Not sure how long they're doing it though. As I took a look at the menu - at first glance it seems like a standard American bar menu with burgers, fries, nachos, salads, wings, and sandwhiches, but upon further reading I noticed the ingredience are a bit diffrent. This is where it really stands out. Subtle changes to some classic foods really shines at this place. Example: PeeBee & Jay Burger/Dirty Kettle Chips Overall we had a pleasant experience at this place and really feels like we could be regulars. Service is good, food is good, drinks, good, and portion sizes are excellent. (2) Alcoholic beverages, (1) appitizer, and (2) entrees. Bill came out to about $61. (Not including tip) Shout out to our server JASON. He was very attentive, we watched him keep that same energy with the other tables around us. Very honest and knowledgeable about the menu. Helped us pick items on the menu, gave us really accurate descriptions of the foods and drinks. Great personality energy and helpful, Drinks: beer and seasonal sangria (good) Food: Caribbean Sweet Potato Fries - We ordered a small, the portion size was great to share for twc people. The jerk sauce gives the fries a spicy kick to them which is a slow build up the more you eat. The salsa was great and really balanced out the spice, 1 appreciate the quality of mangos being just perfect (not too tarte or super sweet). Sweet potatos weren't very sweet but that was fine with me since I generally don't eat sweet potatos. These were propbably the best sweet potato fries I've ever had. Fish Tacos with a side of garden salad with Herb Vinegrett dressing - Fish Tacos were good. the sauce was spicy, a lot spicier than I expected. Fish was well fried and good size. It didn't have a fishy taste to them so it felt fresh. The Herb Vinegrett dressing was sooooo goooood. I wish i had more of it. I can't even describe it other than it was so good. Chopped Santa Fe Salad with requested Jerked Chicken - Chicken was well cooked and juicy. Just the right amount of dressing and chicken. Ratio of sauce to salad was well balanced. Jerked chicken had its own flavor which added to the salad as a whole.Overall really good.

There is a bar area with some booths, as well as a large dining space. If want happy hour you have to sit at the actual bar though. We were greeted by super friendly and very nice hostess.

If you have picky eaters or a large group with varies diets... this is the place to come. The menu is a book! Like it's robust. There are starters, burgers, pizzas, sushi, sandwiches... like it's never ending. When you see a book of a menu you wonder how the quality is going to be since it would be assumed that the kitchen has a massive amount of food that must be made on demand. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food that we had. Well done! Don't be intimidated by the menu. We ordered the potstickers which were tasty and delicious. They do have a little bit of a kick to them. Also ordered the special chicken biscuit sliders served with a side of white gravy. Get these!!! They were absolutely delicious. Highly recommend.

It's one of the most extensive menus I've ever seen, serving everything from burgers to salads to pizza to sushi to pasta. They have it all! There's no reason to be picky here. Food is served hot and fast. My party of 3 didn't wait long for a Grilled Ahi Tuna wrap, a Brisket Sandwich and Pulled Pork Mac and Cheese. Everything came out relatively quick. The ahi tuna wrap was superb. Perfectly grilled tortilla wrap and the ingredients inside blended together beautifully. There was a hint of wasabi in there but it wasn't overpowering and I could still taste the ahi tuna. I added some soy sauce but it honestly didn't even need it. It's tasty as is. Awesome selection of beers here, too. I mean, it's in the name so no surprise there. Service was excellent as our waitress checked in on us multiple times and asked if we needed drink refills each time she stopped over. Tommy's has quite a few locations. It's nice to know I could probably find one when I'm traveling outside of my home state. Definitely come here if you love HUGE menus and phenomenal food!

This restaurant was in walking distance from my hotel so my co workers and I tried it twice. Now our first visit, we were seated quickly but it took some time to finally have our drink orders taken. We had enough time to decide what we wanted before we were finally approached. The restaurant was busy and when we did finally get a server Dee. She was absolutely wonderful and a great server. She recommended different items and I have to say the Shrimp Tortellini and house's fresh garlic bread were delicious. It's also the reason I had to go back. So I went back to try the lobster Tuesday special. This time our server was Sara. She was awesome and very friendly as well. But it still took about an hr for us to get our food. But when it did finally come out the food was great. I am not sure the cooks in this place could go wrong. I had the fresh raw oysters and stuffed lobster. It was something out of this world. The restaurant is really nice and has plenty of seating and a full bar. They also have a great patio to enjoy along the water. If you are not in a rush and want some great food. Please stop in and get everything.
