Eggs Rothko, Chicken Cutlet Sandwich
Larissa B.

Finally got a chance to try this spot out since it's a super popular spot in the neighborhood. No wait on a weekday afternoon, but weekend brunch is super busy. Vibes were nice and the staff were friendly. However, the food was disappointing. Portion sizes were small, prices were high and the food wasn't executed well. The chicken cutlet in my sandwich was thin and dry. The eggs rothko were fine but also seemed sparse/lacking. It was just a piece of toast with egg and a sausage patty.

Very nice place with good vibes and food, Sandwiches were tasty and the eggs were well cooked.

Egg katsu Sando

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!

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.

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.

Cruller
Raia S.

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.

Basic breakfast
Ro Z.

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!
Christina H.

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.

Egg Katsu Sando + Hashbrown
Babacar N.

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

Oatmeal, pancake, scrambled eggs, bacon, French toast, sausage
Nicole B.

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!

Poppyseed passion fruit creuller
Alex H.

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

Egg katsu sando and hashbrown
Jillian B.

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!

Very cute local breakfast joint! There's usually a bit of a wait because its a smaller restaurant, so I'd recommend getting there early.

Pricey and limited menu, but good coffee and egg katsu sando, pretty unique, but a touch too salty. I'd return.

The place has character for sure! Seating inside or out. I arrived early - around 8 - so it was…read morebusy but mostly to-go orders. I'm sure with a later time, it would be busier. I ordered an avocado bagel on seven grain. It was all delicious. There was lettuce and cucumber that was not listed on the menu, but that's ok. The whole thing had a lemony flavor that normally I don't like, but it went well with the other flavors. The egg was over medium, which they didn't ask me how I wanted, but I'm sure they'd change it if you asked. They were very responsive, polite, and quick.

Cafe Madeline is a fun brunch spot with a cozy atmosphere but it defs can get super busy. If you…read morecan, come early to beat the brunch rush. 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.
