    Pulled Pork sandwich w/ Eggy's award winning slaw.
    Roger K.

    I'd been wanting to try one of Eggy's famous egg sandwiches for a number of years. Everyone raves about them. My problem is that I don't typically get up early enough for breakfast. I thought today was going to be my opportunity. I was out of the house early to have some blood work done after fasting, and I even had an errand to do that would take me right by Eggy's. Unfortunately, I still missed Eggy's breakfast hours which end at 11 am. But I'm guessing that most of you early birds are missing out on a second treat that likely compensates those who prefer to hit the snooze button and show up at Eggy's for lunch. I ordered his Pulled Pork with Eggy's Award Winning Slaw ($6.99). The pork has a good balance of vinegar acidity and sweetness while being super tender. The slaw adds a nice crispness to each bite, is not overdressed, and allows all the flavors of the pulled pork to come through. This is no small sandwich. The pork and slaw are served on a really fresh and soft torpedo roll that holds up quite well to traveling should you decide to not eat at one of the picnic tables or in your car. Maybe someday I'll find myself driving home from an all-nighter before 11 am and I can score one of Eggy's breakfast sandwiches.

    First- you have to judge a place for what it is. This is a stationary food truck in an industrial warehouse area. This is not the place for atmosphere or ambience. It is a working-person's food stand. A place to grab a hearty sandwich for as you head back to your construction site. So, there will be no detracting based on location or comfort. It has a wooden picnic table and two wooden spools that serve as stand up tables. No garbage can. Deal with it. (Don't look inside the truck if animated large-bosomed women and a "F**k Biden" sign would offend you.) Second - Eggy serves one thing. Fried egg sandwiches. A buttered roll with 2 fried eggs, cheese, and your choice of meat. (Bacon, sausage, bologna, pulled pork, and a couple of other options.) This is ok. I love egg sandwiches. And my friend who brought me here said, "These are the best egg sandwiches in the area." I can only assume my friend's concept of an egg sandwich or his definition of "area" are sorely misguided. If you only do one thing, you best be damn good at it. Eggy is not good at making egg sandwiches. I ordered mine with extra cheese and crispy bacon. The eggs were fried hard. The bacon was charred and burnt almost beyond recognition. The cheese was melted, but otherwise tasteless. The roll was the best part of the sandwich. I could make a better egg sandwich at home with one hand behind my back while wearing a blindfold. I see this place has 5 stars. And it is spoken of with reverence in foodie circles in this town. And I have no idea why. The best I can say is, it's an experience.

    Great find thanks to yelp. Really good home made breakfast sandwich. I got a bacon, egg and cheese on a hard roll and it was as good as if I made it at home but I didn't have to go through the trouble of doing it. This place is almost on my way to work but morning time is precious so I went on a day off and got there before 11am. At just before 11am the guy that runs the food truck switches out his menu to a lunch menu. I would definitely go back if timing is convenient and I am in the area. Friendly service.

    Is it across the street from a methadone clinic? Yeah. But are the bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches legit? Totally. This has to be a contender for one of the best BEC in the region. I know that's a big claim. But the guy manning the grill told me that he used to be the guy behind breakfast at Quintessence. The original Quintessence. Not it's gussied up second life. And this guy, who goes by the name of Eggy, puts a lot of heart into what he does. This truck isn't exactly a mobile operation. Eggy pays rent on the land, and he runs an electric line so you don't hear the drone of a generator while you eat your expertly griddled sandwich at the smartly painted picnic table adjacent to the truck. These eggs are from the hard fried school. Some people love 'em like that with crisp edges. I'm typically a fan of lower heat cooking for more tender whites. But it works here. Mostly because that bacon is just so fantastically crisp. And there's no question about what kind of cheese this sandwich comes with, it's white american. Obviously. And the thing is so flavorful you can skip the saltpepperketchup. I mean, this isn't Jersey, you know. If you're sketched out, don't be. Come. Enjoy this. And know that you're getting a special treat that those who may be skittish about the neighborhood will never get to experience. N.B. Last year Eggy stayed open until late December. He's trying to winterize the truck a bit better this year. But now he has a phone, so you can call and confirm if you plan to make the drive out.

    Pulled pork with slaw

    It's just one guy in a tiny little food truck, slinging some of the tastiest food I have eaten in a while. The picture is of the pulled pork and slaw sandwich. The whole plate (with a drink) was $8.95 and it was so much food I couldn't finish it. The slaw is "award winning", and for good reason. It's delicious! Makes me excited for my next trip to Albany.

    After reading Daniel Berman's review last night, I came first thing in the in the morning. I may have even been the first customer. The owner was indeed a personality, as he greeted me with a "what's up boss?" and told me he had a sandwich already cooking for me when he heard me pull up, this was my first time here. My "eggwich" and coffee was served in less than two minutes along with "a nice soft napkin, not like that brown sh*t that rips your face apart." For what it is, this is perfect. A quick, simple, delicious bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich on a hardroll and a coffee for less than a 5 spot. Exactly what I needed this morning, after a long night of work and before it begins again.

    The BEST breakfast sandwich I have ever had!!!! You can tell as soon as you walk up to get in line at the Eggy's truck that this is a local favorite and as soon as you take that first bite you will know why! The roll was soft and warm, we literally watched him crack the eggs onto the griddle and cook the bacon right in front of us while we waited! Fresh food, cooked to order, reasonable prices and it's delicious! Definitely going to be a place we go back to time and time again!!!! Thanks Eggy! Can't wait to check out lunch sometime!

    Eggy's place

    Little food truck posted up in a parking lot. Owner/chef has a ton of character, with cheeky signs and witty quips as he's whipping up your sandwich. 4 slices of bacon (or other meats), and two eggs per sandwich. Only a dollar more for a coffee included. Cold drinks in coolers outside. Great place for reasonable prices.

I wish a small bit of rice/zucchini or something was served with the chicken to fill out the meal but the chicken itself was SO yummy!! we also ordered the shoestring truffle french fries and we were a little nervous cause shoestring could be really thin, but these were the perfect size. They weren't too thin and they were so yummy. My husband ordered the salmon and that equally was perfect, served with quinoa. After we both had the raspberry cake for dessert!

That probably speaks for itself in terms of why you would want to avoid this place, but here's a little more for good measure. The service was slow, despite the fact that there was almost no one in the restaurant - empty drinks, food taking at least twice as long as it should, not coming back to check on pretty much anything, servers just standing around on their phones, etc. Also, my breakfast potatoes were slimy and not very warm, and my toast was barely toasted and limp. However, the biggest issue for me is that they were not even going to take this tangy salmonella special off the bill until I insisted. They made my son another one, which we ended up taking to go because it took so long that my other son and I were done eating. Evidently, they thought that simply taking the wrap back and not charging us for it would be an acceptable resolution to serving raw chicken (for the record, the only acceptable reaction would have been apologizing in horror, remaking the wrap, and comping our whole bill). When I expressed to the woman at the register that it is dangerous to serve raw chicken to someone, she argued that they were chicken tenders. I think this means she thought they came frozen and already cooked, which is even more concerning and would explain why they are not cooking things thoroughly. Wow. For your own well-being, stay far away from this place.

On the other hand, my only complaint about the burger was that the bun was a bit bland. It was still one of the better burgers in the area though. In similar fashion, the parmesan truffle fries were excellent as well. To breakdown, the fries were crispy on the outside and airy on the inside. Similarly, the fries tasted homemade and they brought the whole meal together. Not to mince words, Josie's Table is a good restaurant with top notch burgers and fries.

Unfortunately, we were treated like pests over a small misunderstanding. The waitress-Mercy, misheard me on our drink preferences & began giving us the good ol " Caribbean" cold shoulder . Why so sensitive? The sorrel sangria had way too much cinnamon. Also, I wanted pikliz with my meal, but she did not return after the drink mishap.

Every detail reflects passion and authenticity. It's no surprise that actress Tabitha Brown made a stop in Albany to experience the restaurant's highly praised vegan offerings. That's a testament to the reputation they've built. For my meal, I ordered the jerk lamb lollipops, jollof rice, and slaw. The lamb was tender, juicy, and packed with just the right amount of jerk seasoning. The jollof rice was rich, well-seasoned, and full of flavor, while the slaw added a fresh, crisp balance to the meal.
