    Omega special
    David S.

    Amazing breakfast spot !! Our server Maria was the absolute best , personable, funny and even sang to us even though we had stopped in at an incredibly busy breakfast rush. We have a normal breakfast spot closer to home but felt like trying something new. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was clean , food amazing and the service was second to none.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Do yourself a favor if you're in Surfside and try Omega for breakfast.

    Gyro and strawberry Nutella pancakes

    This was my mom and Is first time in Omega pancake house in Surfside and it did not disappoint. We got the gyro and strawberry Nutella pancakes and both were amazing. I believe our waitresses name was Kristine but she was great as well. We definitely will come back the service was quick and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the place was packed but we got our food quick[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and both items were a 10/10.

    Great breakfast place with all the regular items plus lots of specialties too. Numerous awards from lots of papers and travel sites. We had a great waitress who handled our group of 14 like a pro. Every order was right too! All the pancakes and fancy French toast dished were well presented and attractive. Oh and tasted great too. I had the best in town corn beef hash and multi grain pancakes. Wherever possible everything was hormone free, non GMO fresh and locally grown. Many of the sweeter breakfasts had thick and creamy homemade whipped cream. It was a desert unto itself! They also serve fresh squeezed orange juice and many kinds of teas, juices and drinks. There are ocean themed murals on most walls giving it just the right vibe for a beach side diner. Our whole party of 14 agreed we should come back for breakfast again tomorrow.

    Cinnamon roll and beignets with dipping sauces.

    Wow! This restaurant was recommended to us by previous tenants where we are renting in Surfside Beach SC. We rode our bikes and arrived for brunch. The restaurant is clean, and the staff is amazingly friendly, especially our server, Donna. The owners have been in business for 46 years and she loves her job! It was recommended to us that we try the beignets and the cinnamon roll. We ordered both. Also the biscuits and gravy and some fried eggs. The food was outstanding. Donna was so attentive and kind. We highly recommend this restaurant.

    Spanish Omelette
    Adam O.

    Great food, better service. Like everything worth it around here, expect around a 45 minutes wait for a table but it's well worth it once you're seated. Our waitress had lots of personality and was more than attentive. The food was out fast and the prices were reasonable. We're on vacation so we decided to try the mega-mimosa's, I had the orange and my wife had the pina colada, our server was right, both were good but the pina colada was better. I had the Spanish omelette which was cooked perfect with tasty vegetables and sausage spread evenly throughout the omelette. Loved the salsa that came on top as well! This came with two sides so I went with a pancake and hash browns and both were excellent. My wife really enjoyed the red, white and blue waffle as well, said she would order again. The older boys enjoyed their cinnamon rolls enough to order an additional one to split and the youngest loved his French toast and sausage, which I can confirm was very good. Definitely plan to be back here!

    Mimosa!
    Kristina G.

    We usually go to the Golden Egg but I was drawn in by Mimosas lol. And the promise of a good Gyro. They're busy like most breakfast spots down here but we were able to get in in a decent amount of time and with a party of 10 they were able to seat us together which I was pretty impressed by. I told them we'd be fine splitting up if we had to. No need :-) I did try a mimosa and it was yummy and cute with the umbrella touch. I also had a gyro and it was very good - but not the best... The cucumber sauce was lacking even though I asked for extra. It wasn't as chunky as I liked but it was still tasty. That sauce can make or break a gyro. I feel the prices here are also a little higher than some of the other places, but my son swears this is his favorite because of his banana split waffle he can't stop talking about. So we will return.

    Review from customer last month
    Michelle F.

    just outta curiosity. So the restaurant I work at had a meeting on Saturday, there was some things that were bothering me about us as waitresses tipping out over $1,000 each a month to staff that were being paid cash under the table off the books ( confirmed 13 an hour by 1 employee). It bothered me so I addressed it in the meeting. We generally get text messaged our schedules on Sunday. All the girls I work with said I was brave and said all the things they were scared to because they're not in a position to lose their jobs, but either was I. However I wasn't okay with being taken advantage of for almost a year. So I text the head waitress to send me a picture of the schedule when it was posted as I have done since I started. Nick the owner OMEGA PANCAKE HOUSE had her text me and tell me I am no longer on the schedule. Would you take this text as you were fired? Just curious what people would think if they were on the receiving end of this? Good for thought. They leave the bacon out all night, charge you 6.25 for orange juice bought from Costco/Sam's club, soda machine was cleaned maybe a handful of times the year I worked here.oh ya if you want breakfast heated up in the microwave this is definitely the spot for you. But for $15 I'd definitely expect my food not to be reheated. This was so embarrassing as a waitress. If I had a section in the back they could see the microwave in the kitchen and were definitely in view of staff microwaving their food. The girls that wait the tables are amazing that's the ONLY good thing I have to say about thisbplace. . Also he had us tipping out his expo which is back of the house. Who are also being paid 13 plus an hour under the table. Don't forget waitresses make 2.13 an hour which we don't see as we pay taxes. He refuses to let us see our daily report of our sales and loud and clear that we are not allowed to look at our credit card tips. Shady business practices all around. I've been in the restaurant business in 4 different states and I have never not had a sales report at the end of the day or been told I'm not allowed to see it. So he tells us you must tip out these people being paid under the table with your tips. And if you challenge him he tells you there's the door. The only reasonable reason I can come up with is that for some reason he doesn't want us to see our sales or tips is because he's not giving us the tips we actually make. Why else would it be an issue for us to see this? Every other restaurant in America has you run a report of your sales at the end of your shift but he refuses to allow the staff to see this information. When he caught wind of this he was livid that I was "being sneaky" looking in the computer at my tips and sales. I was told by other waitresses to watch out for my paycheck stub as well. I personally had a check where he added over 100 dollars to the amount I had made that week. When I addressed it to the manager I was told to speak to Nick about it who wasn't in town and we didn't have his number to discuss issues like this with. honestly there's a lot of shady things going in in this company that make zero sense. So if you want to support this type of business practice that's your choice. And there's a lot more that I haven't written. But as Nick says. Karma. His day will come and I am taking the appropriate measures to make sure that this is reported to the appropriate authorities. However since it may take time I felt it was appropriate to also share here as I review a lot of establishments I go to and as you can see from my profile most 90% are positive except the ones that aren't.

We tried two different omelettes, home fries and the kiddo got pancakes. All were outstanding. The omelettes were fluffy and loaded! The home fries were redskin which took them to a whole other level. Staff was friendly and attentive, food came out quick and very nicely presented on the plates all in a casual comfortable environment. This is a must stop for breakfast if you're in town. Wish I would have taken pics before we ate but it looked so good we just dove in.

We pulled up to what looked like an old Italian restaurant. When we entered there was a board with specials and a hostess/waitress seated us. I was a little trepidatious since we were the only people there but very rarely do you yelpers steer me wrong! Our British company ordered hot tea, while the rest of the party ordered water, juice or soda. I say this only because each Brit got a teapot of their own. It was lovely and appreciated! Most of our table got omelets due to the recommendation of the waitress and they were definitely delicious. But the potatoes that accompanied them were the best thing we had there! I had the biscuits and gravy (a special on the board). While they were tasty, the biscuit was more crumbly than I like and the presentation was visually unappealing. The interior was clean and had a definite "Mom and Pop" vibe. It is Veteran owned, which was a plus for us! The price was just right for the very good breakfast that we were served. I would recommend you stop here at any point on your vacation, you won't be disappointed.
