    The Great Egg Omelette
    Santanu S.

    Adding lettuce leaves to any entree makes it healthy, right? Well, that is what I told myself while enjoying The Great Egg Omelette. I ended up finishing all of the greens before I took a bite of anything else. That is how much I enjoyed its dressing. With the exception of a baked potato topping, I rarely have a dollop of sour cream on my food, so it provided an interesting flavor contrast. Some other restaurants charge extra for an English muffin. I liked how most of the egg dishes is served with one at not additional charge. Unfortunately, three years later, I still did not like their coffee.

    2 Egg Breakfast
    Syd G.

    Met with a large group in their banquet room on a Saturday morning. So went in with the understanding that it would probably be slow. I was pleasantly surprised at the stellar level of service. We had about 15 in our group and one waitress handled everything like a champ. She got our drink orders and delivered them quickly. Then, she turned around and got all our individual meal orders. So nice to get our orders in 20 minutes. I had the 2 egg breakfast with home potatoes and sausage patties. Great recommendation by the waitress. Good food. A solid four stars performance.

    Patriot waffle, eggs over easy, and ham.

    Food is wonderful and consistent. There is never an issue with omissions or substitutions. Wait staff is very friendly and always happy to get your food just the way you want it. You never have to wait for a refill for your coffee because they give you a pot to refill when you want. Our favorite breakfast spot!!!

    Breakfast Croissant

    The breakfast croissant was so yummy! Owen always takes care of us and makes the experience fantastic. This place has the best vibes, should be called the Greatest Egg!

    They give you the whole coffee pot!

    We stopped in here for breakfast and it was such a great experience! Our waiter Joaquin was amazing! Made sure my tea was always filled even gave me a to go one without me asking! That's great service! Make sure you sit in his section he will make you smile! The food was delicious and the coffee pot stays at your table to you leave caffeinated! Hope you go try them out! Enjoy!

    We stopped in for a quick breakfast when we were in Denton and had a wonderful experience. The service was fantastic!! I failed to get our servers name, but she was young and had her hair dyed blue. She was so friendly and pleasant. I would go back just for the service!! The decor was very inviting, as well. My eggs were cooked perfectly, and my husband loved his omelette. We will definitely be back when we are in the area.

    Undercooked bacon and rotten strawberry
    Mr. P.

    They brought us rotten fruit. There were gnats all over us, and the bacon was undercooked to the point of being unsafe to eat. The waitress was clearly overwhelmed with too many tables; I blame management. My wife and I each had the crab cake Benedict. The crab cake was real crab but it tasted old. When we first walked in we stood around for 15 minutes while the hostess and an old woman (presumably the manager) looked at each other and couldn't figure out how to seat us. It was very odd. The food is cheaply priced, and thus attracts a consistent crowd of elderly folks whose taste buds don't work anymore and don't care what the food tastes like or if it's fresh.

    Create Your Own Omelette-bacon sausage ham and peppers. My fiancé got the Strawberry Banana Waffle in the back. They liked it.

    I've tried the great egg multiple times. Even back when it was called the egg and I. Not the best breakfast place in town but it's definitely not the worst. Pretty decent food and decent prices!

    Veggie Benedict
    Courtney D.

    I ordered UberEats from here and was thoroughly impressed because the food was super hot and fresh still! I even unexpectedly burned my mouth on the coffee a bit because it was so unexpected. I had been here a couple of times before the pandemic, and I can honestly say the food is just as good getting takeout as in person. They packed everything where nothing was soggy and the hollandaise sauce was in a separate container to keep it from impacting the rest of the food. It was my first time ordering the veggie benedict and it was an amazing amount of food with plenty of artichokes, spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, and asparagus on top of a toasted english muffin. The eggs were just right, and I loved the consistency of the hollandaise sauce. The potatoes were, also, a nice portion. So, I will definitely be ordering this dish again!

While we were there, I observed employees loading whole oranges into the fresh orange juice machine. Several oranges fell onto the floor, and I watched the employees pick the oranges up and place them back into the hopper to be juiced. I asked to speak with the owner but was told the owner was not there. A man who identified himself as the general manager came out. I explained what I had observed. The only question he asked was, "Do you know how many oranges fell onto the floor?" I replied that the number wasn't the issue. My concern was that oranges that had contacted the floor were being put back into the juicer. I did not feel my concern was taken seriously, and I requested the owner's contact information. I did not receive it. Because I believe this is a serious food safety concern, I reported this to the Highland Village Code Enforcement Division for investigation. We were excited to celebrate a special occasion here, but instead we left concerned about the restaurant's food handling practices and the response from management. Based on what I personally witnessed, I cannot recommend this restaurant.

Since it's a food truck, it was pretty hot outside, but the lively festival atmosphere made it a fun stop.

The waffles were soft and paired perfectly with the chicken for that sweet-and-savory combination. Even with the event crowd, the service was friendly and efficient, and the staff kept things moving.
