    Look at all those chickens!
    Erika J.

    Great spot! Rebecca was our waitress and she was super sweet. Wait time was short and coffee was good! The marionberry jam is now my go to! You can even buy it from there. Loved my omelette and the eggs were so fluffy! The hashbrowns were a bit odd but besides that we will be back!

    We came here on a Sunday morning. It was quite busy. They had a few patrons standing outside waiting for their tables. The wait was about 20 minutes, so it wasn't too bad. I was interested in having a country breakfast and the service was excellent. I had the chicken fried steak, smothered in gravy with eggs and potatoes. They also gave me toast, but it was way too much food, so I gave it to my friend. Our server was suppper friendly!

    Yummy !!!! The lemon syrup is to die for!!!
    Veronica C.

    I think I've found my new favorite diner ! I had breakfast here today first time ever and got the lemon poppyseed pancakes and they are the BEST pancakes I've ever had in my life!!! That housemade lemon syrup is so damn good!!! I just wish they gave a little more of it ! The orange juice, eggs and sausage were very good quality as well and my waitress was very sweet and attentive... even with the restaurant being so packed and busy! I plan to come back at least semi regularly since i left very happy with my belly full... and it didn't break the bank. It was just a little over $15 for my juice, meal and tip included which i find it's not easy to get a decent breakfast that price or less anymore when you go to eat out. They exceeded my expectations. Much better than ihop or dennys when it comes to pancakes !

    I couldn't rate this higher! This was a great experience when you know what to expect. Pros- Our server, Cherie, was cheerful and expedient. The table was clean and well stocked. Our food arrived promptly. All the orders were large portions, and everyone was happy with what they ordered. I got the Taco Salad, which was beautiful, delicious, and had plenty of ingredients. Everything tasted fresh. Coffee was hot and unending with plenty of creamer for all. Cons- Parking could be more plentiful, but that is to be expected when they are busy. Also, I wish they still offered buckwheat pancakes! Please bring them back to your menu. I would happily return again as it was a great dining experience. It is obvious that this restaurant is a staple of the community and is well loved by all.

    The "Pig Out Scramble"
    Bob G.

    Having recently moved into the area from Northern Nevada, I was genuinely pleased with my breakfast visit to the Egg Factory. Nothing fancy about the exterior of the building that would reflect the food inside; it's simply a non-flashy building. Wandering inside seems to match the exterior, very simple tables and chairs that have seen some extensive use. Was warmly greeted and seated promptly. My server was quick to take my coffee order while setting my water and utensils down. Being my first visit, I needed several minutes to decide which of the many breakfast options to try. Ultimately, the "Pig Out Scramble" oinked the loudest. The scramble had crumbled bacon, smoked ham, country sausage, bell peppers and onions topped off with monterey-jack & cheddar cheeses. The ingredients were fresh. Surprised at the quality of bacon used in this scramble - thick and tasty. Enough cheese to require fork-twirling separation. I chose the hash browns (the other potato choice was house [cubed] potatoes) and breakfast bread. I opted for pancakes as my "bread". The pancakes (two) were thick, fluffy, and tasty. The meal was pleasing and I thought very reasonably priced. I could have easily taken half this meal home given the large portions (but heck, I finished it!). My pleasant server (Kaylee) checked on my coffee level often and made sure I had everything I needed throughout. I would have lifted this review to 5-stars had it only been reflective of the food and service. My only detractor to all of this was the use of "experienced" tableware. There were chips in the ceramic coffee mug, normally not something you would use to serve the public. Following suit, the plates, etc., were a bit worn also. Definitely NOT show-stoppers and I will definitely return here again. These were the only negatives on an otherwise wonderful meal.

    Proof I was there :)

    I apologize for not taking pictures of the good, but hopefully my review will help customers at this little gem. We went here on the advice of friends who have dined here while visiting their family. As out-of-towners ourselves, we rely on local reviews and the recommendations of others whom we know to try out breakfast places. The menu has plenty of options, so we were able to easily choose something for each of us. Hubs had the strawberry waffle, which he pretty much devoured. Son had the sausage lovers platter. He stated it was good. Daughter-in-Love had the steak omelette . Said it was good. I had the taco olé omelette. It was tasty. Pros: The first positive thing was the server, Mary. While we obviously aren't regulars, she was kind and attentive to us, making sure we were well taken care of. I mention this because you could tell who who were people who spent more time there. She called them by name, and you could tell she had a genuine affection for them. It was actually pretty awesome! The food was good. I recommend the cinnamon rolls. Adequate parking. The servings were huge. Cons: I can't really think of anything, but if I had to stretch for one, it would be the tables are close together. This would be a repeat visit place.

    Omg the chicken fried chicken and lemon poppy pancakes are both to die for. The staff was very friendly and friendly we received our food really fast. It was a really homey feel inside here. This place wasn't only really delicious but you got a big serving for a small price. Be back soon!

We did have to have a small wait. I love the fact that they were busy! Nothing makes me happier than seeing a local business thrive! It was a little over 10 minutes of wait time. No problem, we chilled in the car till we got our text to come in. We were sat, got coffee and juice ordered and checked out the menu. We were both hungry so everything looked good. My husband decided on a stack of pancakes with chocolate chips and a side of biscuits and gravy. I got the Big boy omelet with Moe Joe's potatoes. Our server, I believe her name is Kendra, was super sweet! I have served her before when she came in and ate my at family's restaurant. She was fabulous as a guest and fabulous at taking care of us today. I had requested a fresh cup of half and half that wasn't used my multiple guests. I'm still bring careful with my new kidney. With no hesitation, she gladly gave me a fresh cup of half and for my coffee. I appreciate her kindness so much. Food came out and booooyyyyy did everything look amazing! My husband's pancakes were fluffy and had plenty of chocolate chips. The biscuits were covered with gravy. My omelet was massive and was also covered in gravy. I was ready to tear into them potatoes! They were nice and charry. I know this meal is about to hit! I don't think I said a word to my husband for 15 minutes. The food was so good! Nothing important needed to be talked about when the food was doing the talking for us. My omelet was stuffed with green peppers, onions and all the 3 meats that came with it. I love love love the gravy on top! The potatoes were crispy on the outside and so soft in the middle. The potatoes with gravy is top tier! Of course I tried my husband's pancakes.... so fluffy and sweet. The biscuits weren't crazy dense. I love that they were airy. I really had to hold back on the pancakes, I still had a whole omelet to work on. But them pancakes were the business! It's sad that this joint is clear across town. I would eat here every week if I could. Everything we had today was so good! Everything I had last time was good! The service is fantastic. I adore Memory and Peyton. Now I get to add Kendra to my list! One of the best breakfast joints in town, hands down! I'm so happy I got to start my birthday week at Moe Joe's! I look forward to coming back very soon.

We had a different server than our usual this time and she was fantastic. I wish I remembered her name to give her a shout out. I took away a star because the food wasn't as great as the last few times I visited. The eggs were overcooked (kind of dry and almost rubbery) and the hash browns were under cooked in the center. Now, if you've read my previous review, youd know how much i absolutely LOVE their pancakes - and I've made it my go-to spot for breakfast because of it. Well, either they changed the recipe or someone messed up this batch. It was nice and fluffy, but bland. That signature deliciously buttery flavor was nowhere to be found. I kept taking bites hoping my tongue was deceiving me... but there were no lies. Just disappointment. This is definitely a deal breaker. Maybe I'll try one more time. If it was just a one-time fluke, I'll update this review and stars. :::sigh:::

They know the menu inside and out and can pretty much make whatever you're craving. If you're driving through on the interstate, take the I-84 & Eagle Rd exit--it's only a few miles north on Eagle Road. Super easy to get to. FYI: The building used to be a Famous Dave's BBQ, so it's got that cozy, comfortable feel. Highly recommend--go try it!

With its varied menu and delicious happy hour selection this place could be a favorite for a wide variety of the local population. Classy, welcoming with engaging staff.

We also tried the Kobe sliders, but they fell short of the Chicken Sliders with their tender, juicy cuts of breast. The lineup of drinks are on full display at the bar and with scannable menus. This is a solid place for bringing friends or family for a gathering - yes, like the name suggests "Common".
