    I wanted a quick brunch and decided to try this restaurant. I liked that they had crayons and paper on the table. Drawing while waiting was actually relaxing. I got the egg katsu sandwich, the country ham biscuit, and the butter cream cinnamon roll. The egg katsu was crispy. The biscuit was warm with salty ham. The cinnamon roll was sweet and soft. The portions were a bit small, but still enough to fill me up. Nice spot for a quick bite.

    Put our name in on a rainy Sunday at 1 PM (they text you when your table is ready) and got seated at 1:45 PM; just enough time to grab a coffee at Villager nearby while we waited. My boyfriend and I shared the Little Egg cruller, egg katsu sando and oat cakes. Cruller was great - a nice sweet start. Egg katsu sando was phenomenal and why you should visit. Oat cakes were good but nothing special... would try the French toast instead next time!

    ok ok ok I am giving this a 4/5 but only because I tried one thing on the menu which was the oat pancakes and those were absolutely a 10/10. Light texture with really good sweet from the maple syrup and preserves. Service was quick and easy on a Monday and very cute space. I'd like to come back and try more but highly recc for the pancakes themselves.

    I've gotten takeout from here a few times and it's always really yummy. Don't miss out on the cruller, they change up the flavor but it's always this juicy, airy pastry unlike any I've tried before, I especially like the fruity flavors but the black and white was delicious. The savories aren't as impressive, but the katsu egg sando was good (I don't love big egg chunk but the toppings were nice and I enjoyed it generally) and the eggs rothko were okay. The greens in the latter were quite bitter but I loved the addition of the tomatoes and the buttery brioche was a nice pairing with the egg and cheese. I'm giving the place five stars because I don't have a sweet tooth and don't usually revisit the same spots, but I have been thinking about that pastry since I tried it a year ago.

    Famous Little Egg! The service was very swift and kind. There was about a 30-40 minute wait to be seated as per usual on a busy day in BK. We got seated in their backyard outdoor space which was very nice and refreshing. As for the food, they were out of most of their pastries. I decided to get the basic breakfast and it was good, nothing special. My friend got the katsu sandwich (which they're known for). Still very basic. I may be biased bc we're native New Yorkers and our egg sandwiches are *chefs kiss* good. I didn't get the most bang for my buck but it's worth a try! 8/10!

    egg sandwich.  Great value!

    loved this little place. Staff was excellent. Friendly and helpful. the place was a little loud, so it was hard to hear a bit. they have a nice outside too, I got the rothko eggs with bacon, and my friend got the egg sandwich with added sausage. we liked both of them.

    Cozy spot with incredibly kind staff. The Goat Sausage Sandi was really good. The Jap scurry Bun was good but it was a bit cold and lack sauce. There's heated outside seating in the back and every table has crayons and sheets you can draw on, which I was far more immersed in than the actual meal lol.

    Correctness/Taste (1-5): I thought the egg katsu alone was delicious, the sauce (yuzu mayo) made it even better! I got it paired with the chicken sausage, which wasn't the best. If I were to do again, no sausage, I don't believe you need it for this sandwich. The chocolate milk is regular. - 4/5 Value (1-5): For what I got, I believe it is overpriced, even though it tasted really good, I don't know how many eggs are used to create the egg katsu, but $17 seems like a reach. There are other items on the menu that cost the same price but will make you feel more full. 3/5 Customer Service (1-5): The customer service was attentive and nice. 5/5

    The gluten-free pancakes were so good I could cry. They were so fluffy and moist. They also come with this really nice fruit preserve that adds a nice touch to the oatmeal flavor. I had the scrambled eggs and bacon on the side, but honestly didn't need it because the pancakes could stand alone. My father ordered the French toast and he said it was delicious. I also saw that they had gluten-free toast. We went on a Monday morning and it was surprisingly busy but they took our order and brought out the food pretty quickly. It is a small neighborhood spot so I would either try to go on an off day or anticipate waiting on a line. I will for sure be back!

    Little Egg in Prospect Heights is a cozy restaurant whipping up tasty breakfast and lunch fare in a casual atmosphere. We came after seeing Little Egg featured on the NYT best breakfast sandwich list to see is the hype around the egg katsu sandwich. After trying for ourselves, we are believers of the hype. The soft steamed egg is breaded in panko and fried, making for a delicious contrast of textures. We also appreciated the fluffy on the inside, crunchy on the outside hash brown as a side. The sleeper star of the meal however was the crueller, which was poppy seed glazed and topped with passionfruit curd. The perfectly fluffy crueller texture pairs perfectly with the slightly tart toppings for a balanced sweet treat to accompany a savory breakfast. After further diligence we are indeed in agreement with the critics on this one

    Have had little egg on my radar for a while now and decided to go on a long walk and try it out. Cute interior, friendly staff. The famed Egg Katsu sando was good (I also got cheese and bacon on it) but for a ~$22 breakfast sandwich, I'm not rushing back. Glad I tried it though!

    Little Egg is so cute! From the small decorations to the fact that they give you crayons to color the paper on the table, it's a great vibe. The food is great too! I tried the egg katsu sandwich and wowow it was so tasty. Service was so friendly and nice, it really feels like a local spot and I'm excited to come back to try more of their menu

    Alan S.

    I've been wanting to try Little Egg's famous egg katsu sando for some time. Sando is really the wrong word, as it's served on a proper brioche - but given the centerpiece of the sandwich is a chawanmushi cutlet breaded in panko, I get what they were going for. The concept is great, although I had a few minor gripes. Some portions of the breading were a bit too salty, leading to a somewhat uneven bite. And would the sandwich be better on milk bread? I personally think there's a decent chance it could be.

    TL;DR version- Some high highs and some very low lows. Hot Figs was a fun app. By a mile, the soups…read morewere the favorites, so I would recommend the Pepián or Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo. Nice happy hour and a large chocolate drink selection I was at this unique Guatemalan (ish) restaurant a while back with one of my groups. I said "ish" because the menu has dishes from all over, ranging from sandwiches to BBQ ribs to Guatemalan and Mexican soups. It's out there, and even though not everything works that well, it's fun, and if you can't find something you want to order here, you probably shouldn't go out to restaurants. There was also live jazz music that night, which was loud but nice to listen to. Since it was happy hour, a bunch of us got drinks. I went with a maracuya margarita, which was decent; someone else had a jalapeño margarita, someone had a beer, and someone had a mojito. There were a few nice hot sauces on the table, with the red one reminding me of salsa macha as it had a smoky kick and a spicier green sauce reminiscent of ají verde. They gave us some complimentary blue corn chips and a very mild black bean dip, which was tasty enough and hard to complain about, as it was free. From the appetizers, we got the Hot Figs for $15.95, consisting of honey goat cheese, corn tortilla chips, and plum + pumpkin seeds. This was a unique and fun blend and reminded me more of something you would find in a wine bar. The mix of sweet and salty, with a bit of crunch from the seeds, was nice. This was good, and I would recommend it for a table rather than for a solo diner. There was also The Zingy Salad for $21.95, featuring zucchini spirals, yuzu, tomato, onion, cilantro, pumpkin seeds, and a jalapeño infusion. $18.95. The salad was fine with a bit of crunch and a mild spiciness. It was fine, though a bit wet, for lack of a better word. The best dishes of the night were the soups, which each had its own distinct flavor profile. My sight presence went to the Pepián for $21.95, consisting of chicken, pumpkin/sesame seeds, green tomatillo, cinnamon, cumin, black pepper, carrots, chili coban/pasta/guaque, and potato + rice. There was plenty of tender chicken inside, with the soup having a nice roasted flavor with some spice and a bit of sourness. The potatoes and rice on the bottom added more sustenance to this dish. Almost equally delicious was the Caldo Tlalpeño Rojo for a dollar more with shredded chicken, tomato, black pepper, garlic, onions, peas, chickpeas, corn, achiote, chipotle, Monterey jack cheese, and crunchy blue corn tortilla chips. By comparison, this was a bit heartier, with the melted cheese and shredded tortilla chips inside, similar to soups found in Mexican cuisine. While I also liked the mix of veggies a bit more in this one, as it added a bit more texture, I still slightly preferred the flavor of the other soup, as I usually prefer a bit more spice. The rest of the food was fine. The TPC sandwich for $19.95 with chicken, peanut butter, coconut cream, ginger, cilantro, pickled carrots, and lime was fine. For the number of ingredients, I found it a bit sweet, likely from the cream and the peanut butter mix. The bread was nice, but it also fell apart. It came with a nice side salad with a good vinaigrette. The most expensive at $24.95 were the Slow Cooked BBQ Ribs, consisting of baby back ribs with rice and beans. The ribs were almost a bit too tender as they lacked any bite, which was nice, but the sauce was a bit too generic tasting, reminding me of Sweet Baby Ray's or something similar. The rice and beans were standard. This was also OK. Next came some dessert. There was first the $12.95 Rosemary Churros served with dulce de leche & chocolate dips. While I'm not sure if it worked, the rosemary did add a unique smell and a bit of flavor, and at least it wasn't generic. The churros themselves were hot, and the sauces were standard, with my preference being the dulce de leche. I also ordered a Champurrado for $7.95, which was fine. It wasn't as thick as I expected, though perhaps the style is a bit different than the champurrados I rarely buy from Mexican street carts. The chocolate flavor was very nice, though, and I like that it wasn't too sweet. Another person got a $4 Alfajor, which I got a bite of, which was standard. This place is a bit hard to rate. The two soups were wonderful, I liked the appetizers, and I found a couple of the other dishes just OK. Overall, it was a good meal, but I'm not craving to go back. This would be the perfect 3.5, but I'll round up as that doesn't exist.

There were drinks -- coffee, hot chocolate, and something fruity. They also brought us corn chips and a bean dipping sauce to start -- YUM! I really liked the hot green sauce that accompanied the meal, too. This is a great find!

The setup is a little different from a full-service restaurant. You order at the counter, let the staff know if you're dining in or getting your order to go. If dining in, then find a table and wait for your name to be called. If you're seated farther away, they'll usually bring your food to you. For drinks, it's best to stay near the baristas towards the front of the store since those are typically called out separately. I ordered the Madeline omelette without the jalapeños. It was good overall but it could have used a little more salt. I also tried the matcha latte (which tasted a bit too milky) and I had to add extra sweetener, so I'd probably try a different drink next time. The pastries, especially the apple strudel and Boston cream donut, were both really good. Highly recommend the apple strudel.
