portions are huge, 1 serving is enough for 2 people! workers are nice and respectful. its a small restaurant but pretty chill

Amazing green chilaquiles with very modest portions. Casual diner vibes with awesome staff. They also have another location (Nick's Cafe) in Dogtown which is equally great. read more

Rude service and horrible food. I hate leaving a bad review because some of the employees here were actually very nice. I came in on Sunday around 1:45 PM, shortly before closing. One of the younger female servers kindly told me I still had time to sit and eat, and a very sweet young host began walking me to a table. Then another employee stepped in -- an older, shorter woman who immediately wtold me, with a pretty RUDE attitude, that they were closing in 15 minutes. She repeated it three separate times in a snarky tone. It was very clear she didn't want me there. The host seated me in the back, but by that point I felt so uncomfortable that I decided to just order my food to go and leave. Unfortunately the food itself was also disappointing!!!! I ordered a breakfast burrito with eggs, sausage (which costs extra), and zucchini. When I got home and opened it, it was basically a potato burrito. There was hardly any egg and only a few tiny pieces of sausage -- maybe half a link at most. The burrito was almost entirely hash browns. For nearly $16.50, I expected a real breakfast burrito, not a wrap full of potatoes with barely any of the ingredients I paid extra for. If I wanted a potato burrito, I would've ordered that. I expect eggs and a breakfast burrito point blank. I feel this is common restaurants filling up items with the cheap ingredients. What a rip off . The receipt listed the name "Erika Oliveria" as the cashier -- not sure if that's the correct name of the server, but whoever handled the interaction could definitely work on treating customers with a little more courtesy and respect, even if they are closing in 15 minutes. And whoever made the burrito that day should reconsider the ingredient balance or maybe doesn't belong in the kitchen at all. Between the uncomfortable service and the disappointing food, it felt like a waste of money and time. After eating a quarter of the burrito, I just tossed it. I hate waiting food but I want eggs again not a wrap full of hashbrowns. I won't be coming back. read more

Rock'n Egg Cafe - Please look at the photo and tell me where are the eggs? It's all hash brown! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We love this place the ambiance is great feels like an old school diner feel. In the heat of Eagle Rock my town in LA. We are always happy to see one of the best waitresses around. My husband love the food it was very flavorful and with an every bite he had meat with his eggs. The avocado gave it an extra yum! I had the. Verde Machaca Chilaquiles with over easy eggs with Crema and queso fresco. It was so good everybody in the cafe was asking what my order was and were very impressed how good it looked. it taste as good as it looks. The chili Verde were very delicious, crispy not soggy not crunchy it was just perfect. if you love, Chilaquiles is something you have to order at least once and I'm sure you will order it again and again when you go back all the other food is really good, but this has to be my favorite just so far. read more

First time here, we were a little hesitant at first because it said it was busy. But they had a walk up counter for to go orders as well. Indoor and out door seating. Greeted right away, staff was more than amazing. Loved the vibe and atmosphere. Coffee and water while we waited for our to go orders. Great menu selections and fair prices. The recommendation we got for the breakfast burritos from the staff did not disappoint. Very clean inside. The food was a great portion and the flavor was even more amazing. Highly recommend and will return. Parking can be tight in this area, expect to walk a little bit, but it's free. read more

My cousin & I had a nice Friday breakfast at Rock'n Egg Cafe. I remember when this space was Auntie Em's and it ushered in a new age version of cafe/diner types in the area with their not-cheap but tasty red velvet cupcakes. I came to find out that Rock'n Egg is part of the Nick's Cafe group. I love a ham & eggs at that counter spot in DTLA. I went with the waffle combo ($20.95) with bacon and eggs. You get 2 slices of bacon & I asked for scrambled eggs. Great waffle, just what I wanted. The bacon was crispy, perfect breakfast. Tried the waffle and some pancake of my cousin's with their berry compote and also their tomato jam and they were both delicious. I might have to say that the tomato jam edged the berry compote. It's a different addition to your everyday breakfast pancakes. Good stuff. My cousin got the cowboy skillet ($25.95) which had a country sausage patty, onions, bell peppers, spinach, mushrooms & scrambled eggs all smothered in brown gravy... AND all of this on top of a bed of country potatoes aka their cottage fries. He added a short stack of hot cakes (3) for $14.95 He liked everything he ordered especially adding the tomato jam to his pancakes. Service was great. Attentive and friendly. We devoured our food and had a little bit of the skillet dish left to take home. We'll have to get some of those house made muffins next time. Street parking only. We found a spot around the corner for a short walk. No biggie. CLOSED on Mondays & Tuesdays. All other days, hours are 7am to 2pm. read more

It was my first time trying this place for brunch. I just went an hour ago and the lady who served me gave me expired homemade jam. It was very disgusting!! By reading the reviews I see it hasn't been the first time someone encounters an unpleasant experience!!

Came here looking for a good breakfast with the little one, and boy did I score! I got the rib-eye eggs Benedict, what a massive piece of meat, I could only eat half of the order, took the rest home for round two! The little one got the pancakes which she loved with the real maple syrup! Service was quick and friendly. Was a weekend, so it was a bit busy and bustling. Would come back to try out some other things I saw on the menu. read more

Ordered pancakes. Added a side of eggs and bacon. The pancakes were large. 3 came but I was only able to eat 1 and a 1/4. They were rather bland. Needed lots of butter and syrup. Eggs lacked seasoning and the bacon was not crispy. Coffee was nothing to write home about either. Overall, I have to say, I felt disappointed. The $33 tab felt like a waste of money. read more

Had special order - Barbacoa n eggs. The Barbacoa is sooo good! I wish I could finish it. I could take leftover home but I had long drive and being painting the red in the city. My husband had salmon Benedict (special for the weekend). Heard that the chef would make over 200 Benedicts. Every weekend, they will service different Benedicts. That's good convinces for us to come back!!! I would recommend you to check it out! Only my very tiny negative comment is that they should reduce salt on eggs and hash brown. My husband's hash brown is perfect. Still they were so delish. read more

I seen a foodie post a review of this restaurant on IG so I decided to bring my son and mom here for brunch. I would definitely arrive as early as possible because parking is limited on the street and we waited about an hour to be seated. Thankfully the restaurant provides complimentary water and coffee while you wait so I definitely appreciate that! The host also provided menus before were seated so we could get ahead of the ordering process which I also appreciated. Once we were seated, our drink orders were taken immediately and we placed our order fairly quickly. The service was absolutely phenomenal, our waiter and the host were super friendly and made sure our experience was amazing. I ordered the Egg combo with Applewood Chicken sausage which came with hash browns and sourdough toast. My eggs were cooked perfectly, the sausage had great flavor and the hash browns were perfectly cooked. My son ordered the Pan San which came with 3 huge pancakes topped with strawberries, eggs and hash browns. He absolutely devoured his meal with my help! My mother ordered the grilled Pork Chops which came with hash browns, eggs and toast. She was very satisfied with her combo. I saw they offered fresh baked muffins and I had to try a blueberry muffin and I definitely didn't regret it! The muffin was super moist and the ends had the perfect crisp, definitely one of the best muffins I've had in a long time. The waiter brought it before our meals and he added a lit candle for a sweet touch. Definitely order the muffins! I HIGHLY recommend checking this restaurant out, you will not be disappointed. read more

This is my second time eating breakfast here. The first time I never made it in the door. This review is of my first time seeing the inside. I was not expecting to see what I saw. Don't worry it's all good and won't hurt their well deserved A rating from the health department. Rockin Egg Cafe is a cozy, intimate diner near the Eagle Rock boundary where Eagle Rock and Highland Park meet. The restaurant caters to the eagle rock community and two nearby communities Highland Park and Glassell. The mix of three different communities immediately draws you in with its charm. The walls are decorated with posters and photos of America's stunning national parks--Zion, Bryce Canyon, Arches, Yellowstone--which struck a personal chord, as I've had the chance to visit each of those places. It felt like a warm welcome from familiar landscapes. If you go out the back door you are presented with a small covered patio dining. Which would be great for a larger group. There is dinning out on the sidewalk as well. Unfortunately the only parking is on the street. Depending on time of day can be competitive. The good is this establishment doesn't charge an egg surcharge or a bill surcharge. Cash and cards are accepted. Through out my journey of going to all breakfast spots within the 90041 zip code. This is the only place that offers a senior discount for 62 year and above. Also if you get breakfast on Wednesday through Friday before 9 am. They have a limited happy hour. I ordered the breakfast burrito, and it was an absolute beast--noticeably larger than the one I had at Pete's Blue Chip. Stuffed with eggs, potatoes, cheese, jalapeños which gave it the right amount of heat and your choice of meat, it was hearty, well-balanced, and satisfying from the first bite to the last. The flavors were solid, and the portion could easily tide you over well past lunchtime. On my way out, I spotted a shelf full of assorted hot sauces--a nice touch for anyone who likes to spice things up. Rockin Egg Cafe offers a great mix of comforting food, friendly service, and personal connection. It's the kind of place that makes you want to linger a little longer. read more

A seriously delicious breakfast option in sleepy Eagle Rock. There are many breakfast restaurants in Eagle Rock and I would say this is certainly one of the best. They have huge sized portions, fair pricing, and polite staff. They don't have a dedicated parking lot, however street parking is very easy to find in this part of town because the neighborhood behind the restaurant doesn't have permit parking. Most of the seating are outdoor tables however we chose to sit inside for our first visit. Our server was very polite and was very quick with all the refills. They have a very large menu filled with all sorts of classic and unique breakfast options. Eggs Benedict is my favorite breakfast dish so I was very pleased to see that they have a dedicated page in their menu to 8 different Benedicts and there is a constant rotation of seasonal or weekly available Benedict. For my meal, I chose one of the weekend only Benedicts and thought it was fantastic. I chose the Huaraches Benedict and truly loved it. The eggs were cooked perfectly, it was covered in delicious sauce, and the Carne Asada was seasoned perfectly and was a great addition to the dish. The side of hashbrowns was also really good and I prefer them much more than the cheaper home fries other restaurants give you. Overall, I would say this is one of my favorite breakfast spots in Eagle Rock and I plan to be back in the future to try more items. I would suggest to anyone no matter if you have a large or small group, they will be able to make sure you have a great meal. read more

The staff was extremely kind and attentive, from greeting us at the door, sharing recommendations, and checking in with us throughout the meal. I had the chili verde with eggs and my husband had the cinnamon swirl French toast. I am weird and always order my eggs scrambled and WELL done. Our waiter brought my husband's food, but I had to wait a minute for mine. When he brought my breakfast he said he knew the eggs weren't cooked enough, so he had them cooked a little longer. I LOVE the attention to detail. The pork was cooked fork tender and the chili verde sauce was delicious. The hashbrowns were nice & crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. All of that was accompanied by 3 tender, flaky, warm tortillas. Absolutely delightful. I didn't try my husband's French toast, but it was visually appealing and he ate every bite. While we were eating a lady (not sure if she was the cook), came out with some house made berry jam for him to try. The ambiance was typical of a small restaurant. Kind of a vintage feel. We could tell this is a locals restaurant and we loved it. We live in Nevada, so we can't be regulars, but we will definitely be returning visitors. read more

Absolutely delicious breakfast and lovely ambiance. My boyfriend and I were looking for a good place to get a meal on a Sunday and came across this spot. Parking was quick and easy on the street in the neighborhood, and when we walked in, we were greeted and seated quickly. The menu is extensive but not overwhelming, and we were able to land on an order of chocolate chip pancakes and the MC benedict (that's eggs benedict with corned beef hash as the meat) as we sipped our coffees. The food was so good! The pancakes were huge and fluffy and drizzled with chocolate sauce. And the benedict, oh my god, probably the best I've ever had. I would get it again. I will get it again. Based on how tasty it was, I want to try lots of other dishes on the menu, too. Hopefully I have more breakfast dates there in the future. Everyone working there was also super nice and welcoming which added to what was overall an excellent dining experience. read more

The staff At Rock'n Egg Cafe were sooo friendly! Jeff was the best server! The food was straight fire! The chilaquiles are top tier! The nopales were great too. Ambiance is ok for the area that it's in. Just be warned if you are seated out back there is a house behind this restaurant . read more

What a great place for breakfast! Upon entering we were greeted with smiles and a warm welcome. Our waiter Hannah was amazing! She not only gave excellent suggestions but she was super attentive and friendly. The service alone would bring me back. The food was great too! All servings were large portions and well priced for what you get. I ordered the Huevos Rancheros which was a huge serving of food and was pretty tasty. My other party got pancake combos. To which everyone loved. I tried them with the compotes/jelly that they generously bring out on the side. The tomato jam and wild berry were delicious and unique. The parking here is the only issue as it's limited. I suggest coming early too as I'd imagine them getting very busy. Looking forward to my next visit! read more

Okayyyy!! Can I just say Jeff stole the show today with my experience!! The food was amazing but he made my morning with his fantabulous energy. Staff is so welcoming and attentive.

Was able to get in on a Sunday morning around 9:30am with no wait. The service was great and the staff was friendly. We ordered the green chilaquiles with a side of ham and the red chilaquiles with chorizo and both were just okay. The sauce on the chilaquiles lacked flavor. That said the ham was FANTASTIC. We also ordered the biscuits and gravy which were great. The machaca breakfast was SO good. read more

Located on eagle rock Blvd parking can be a challenge only street and did not see a lot. The location is decent sized inside with some out door tables. The host was friendly. Our waitress seemed preoccupied. So that was bummer seems inconsistent. I ordered the hash Benedict's which were really good but the potatoes were too burnt and not seasoned. The sausage and eggs were just ok, potatoes were asked to be crispy but came out soggy. I really wanted to love this place but it's just ok. I found it from a tixtoker review but looked better than irl. read more

This is my favorite breakfast spot and I drive 30+ miles just to eat here on the weekend. No lie. The food is great. The portions are generous. The service is the best. You truly feel like family coming to eat here. Jeff (and family?) make you feel like extended family. Their house made salsa and tomato preserves are addictive. So fresh and sooo good. You can eat the food as is or smother it with one of those sauces and be happy and full when you leave. I love it here. I'd recommend Rock n Egg cafe to anyone looking for great food and ambiance. I bring more and more family members each time I come. Oh gosh...don't get me started on their muffins too. Try their chocolate. Sooooooo amazing!!! read more

The menu here has many options for breakfast and lunch. All-American with Mexican inspired fare with a modern twist would be how I described the menu here. I dig it!

I really liked my breakfast combo of chicken apple sausage and eggs with hash browns. The eggs and hash browns were perfectly fried not overdone. The chicken apple sausage seems like they made the patty from scratch. Deliciously tender!!! My sister didn't like her French toast stating it was too bready and the wrong bread apparently. My dad loved his grand Avenue omelette. Rock'n Egg is generous with portions too!!! Can't wait to try more of their menu!!! read more

Food was ok nothing too great also a bit overpriced for a breakfast bagel and an order of pancakes but that's just my opinion.

I had the best breakfast ever! Our waiter was so patient and so kind. You must try their homemade salsa. We loved it so much. They ended us giving us a whole jar. Such mom and pop vibes and will definitely be back. read more

Service is really great and they are always able to help you out even when things get a little busy. The cafe is spacious with plenty of space to get by the restrooms and tables were all clean. Although place does get very busy here and there, there is still some tables outside and I like their 'to go' lounge very comfortable. Food is the best it is a bit on the pricy side but what does money matter when you're getting a nice huge stack of pancakes with chocolate chips and syrup on it, so overall my experience eating at this place was really good. Will definitely be coming back. read more
