“ The food was delicious ! We shared everything and the price was decent. It's a little small so you're a bit squished in there but I recommend for a solid breakfast. The ricotta scramble was delicious and the service was good and fast. Make sure to reserve before ! The music is also fun ! ”
“ We stopped by for breakfast and we loved everything. The food was amazing and delicious. The service was great. The restaurant was a bit tight so I would not recommend it for a huge group. They also have a very small bathroom so if you're claustrophobic, I will recommend using the bathroom elsewhere before you get here. ”
“ To say I love a place that can do more than one expects, egg shop is the place to go :) As a picky eater, I always ask if restaurants are able to cook only egg whites as a replacement for regular sunny-side ups, and omg, the Egg Shop not only accepted my request but cooked a lovely amount of them! Not only that, the avocado w/ the sourdough bread was delish! Everyone else loved their breakfast bowls and drinks, and were delighted with the customer service! lol just for a tip, please make sure there is no insects, for last time we visited there was a large bug on the booth! ”
“ It's a pretty solid brunch spot. I always do takeout. Down side is the price of it. Some of the items it can be easily made at home. But sometimes you pay for not having to cook it yourselves. I don't come too often since the price and size of the items don't match ”
“ I love this face for a great quick breakfast! Service is great and the ambience is quaint. I visited on Monday morning and order the egg scramble with avocado added to it. It was very tasty! It could've used a little bit more assault but otherwise very good. We also ordered the hashbrowns with crème fraîche and salmon roe, which was really good. I liked the ricotta pancakes with honey butter on top. The lavender French 75 was amazing! Will definitely return in the future. ”
“ My siblings and I were visiting and my cousin (NYC local) recommended this place to us for brunch. I looked up the menu and thought that everything was quite expensive for just a place that sells eggs. I was blown away by how everything tasted. We ordered the hash browns with truffle, the ricotta scramble, and the eggs benedict with salmon (i forgot the actual name). Even their latte was delicious! Each ingredient blended together so nicely and for brunch it was great because nothing tasted heavy. The staff were very nice and helpful, explained to us their recommendations and why. The place was extremely small and packed. It didn't even look like there was enough room for the staff to stand. Overall, well done! definitely a place to come back to next time we visit. ”
“ Tiny tiny restaurant but super attentive staff and good food! My roommate and I split the truffle pecorino hash browns (9/10 more of a beer batter fry than a pan fry) and I got the Turkish eggs with zaatar seasoning and the oil on the side (7/10 since I had to add salt and pepper to it and the zaatar didn't have a lot of added flavor. My roommate ordered the brie my baby (6/10 lacked flavor and the bacon wasn't really crispy and honestly had an odd texture? I also got coffee with almond milk on the side. The coffee was strong and good so I didn't add any of the almond milk but they charge you $1 for it without telling you. There's also a 2.5% service charge. Cute place overall. ”
“ A cute spot for brunch, especially (duh) eggs, tucked into the heart of Little Italy -- this is a small restaurant, so would definitely recommend making a reservation ahead of time. Our waiter was attentive and the meal didn't feel rushed, which I appreciated since it's a pretty small joint. It's a perfect pit stop before going window shopping in the area. The Ricotta Scramble was delicious -- I loved that the truffle really came through and also that it was an open-faced sandwich! The Turkish Eggs were also so good. The egg theme was very apparent, and I dig it overall. ”
